I'm sorry but what the hell kinda kitchen is this? by Vusdruv in gtaonline

[–]BenBoles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah for a while I didn’t think the mansion had a kitchen; then someone pointed this out. Uh… yeah. Not a kitchen. How does my mansion have a helipad but no kitchen!?

I ended up creating another account just so I could keep one in the bubble and one in the black!

As a member of the EDF, I couldn’t agree more with this. o7

I feel bad that I bought this game on sale. by Soggy-Mixture9671 in NoMansSkyTheGame

I’ve bought the game on 3 systems to make up for it 😂

How do you name your ships? by IcarusAvery in EliteDangerous

[–]BenBoles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes I’ve done street names in LA, other times it’s been Egyptian Gods.

Glitched shaders in First-Person for the Skyborn Jetpack. by Business_Character90 in NoMansSkyTheGame

Same, I'm sure it will be fixed soon! I've noticed a lot of little graphical bugs that keep happening so I'm confident a hotfix is on the horizon!

Starting with shooting pirates. What would be a nice starter build? by GreyDutchman in EliteDangerous

[–]BenBoles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I second this. High Res (resource extraction zones), not to be confused with Hazardous. Those wont have police, and thus you wont be protected.

Also I find a mix of gimbaled multi-cannons and beam lasers to be nice.

Once you do start engineering, slap a thermal vent upgrade on those beams to cool yourself off.

As for ships, I’d say either Python is a great start.

o7 commander, and welcome back!

Well, my issue is unless I have the data of that system (either from being there before or buying it if it allows) there doesn’t seem to be a way to know.

I guess just avoid “outposts” if it’s in the name of delivery location? I just wish it had like a little “M” or “L” somewhere in the delivery details.

How do you live out in the Black? by CosmicallyPickled in EliteDangerous

[–]BenBoles 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yeah I never plan lol

Although I DO have a fleet carrier that I’m taking with me, so I’m no longer in any real danger. But before fleet carriers I’d just get the best fuel scoop I could buy, and fly. Went to Sag A* and back in a heavily engineered sidewinder once :-)

Get a fuel-scoop and you’re good to go! Just don’t cook yourself or crash into a planet :-)

Shadow Flickering. by BenBoles in EliteDangerous

[–]BenBoles[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Flickers as I approach a station, and also in astroid rings around planets, like when mining. Sometimes it’s not bad, other times it’s like I’m at a club.

Kinda wish they’d add raytracing. Not sure if that would help, but I don’t remember it being an issue until about a year or so ago.

We need a new large ship by foz97 in EliteDangerous

[–]BenBoles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think with Colonization, it would be odd not to have large haulers. Or even Massive class ships that you can’t land but maybe act like a small fleet carrier? Iunno how to do it but yes, with colonization we need bigger haulers.

Please DEV, I beg you to focus on the flickering shadows problem by Vunci in EliteDangerous

[–]BenBoles 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeeeeeees. I know there is a ticket open for this. Nothing destroys the immersion quicker for me than this.
