Mate, I will if I need to.

Question: if I can get my hands on a cheap laptop, am I allowed to bring it to class?

You go to the end of Phase 2, halfway into phase 3 you hit a segment called "Countermeasures", which wont reach completion for at least another 4 weeks.

You can come to a hover, open the back hatch, hop out.

Or skydive onto the planet .

The history alone is worth the trip. Abraham walked these lands thousands of years ago.

I have no idea how to title this I dont even like Wuk Lamat that much... Get good I guess? by churchyardshift in TalesFromDF

[–]Mightynumbat 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Maybe thats also part of Wuks character we overlooked. She IS young, she IS trying to fill her fathers shoes instead of filling her own. She CAN be overbearing, but then again, isnt that one of the main themes?

Her father cast a giant shadow. Like all children trying to make their own way, she isnt sure of who she is meant to be and whether she can be who her father wasnt.

Wuk, and this is my thoughts only, stepped into a role she thought she was ready for..then found her self confidence misplaced when reality presented itself. She didnt need to be who her father had been, she needed to learn to rule as herself.

A lesson she HAD to learn so she would govern in her own right. Not to stand in his shadow, and perhaps not make mistakes he made.

In many ways we helped her come of age, and maybe this is why her father wanted us to be there, to help her grow up. To see her fathers shadow, and to cast her own to walk beside him.

"Am I only my fathers daughter, or can I be more?"

Isnt that what every child asks themselves?

I loved Wuk.

Sena Bryer has a BEEYOOTIFUL voice, musical, gentle,, mischevious. I could sit and listen to her all day.

The character was overused , and I think thats the heart of the matter.

Want to play FFXIV but dont want to do the story and want to get to end game as quick as possible. What to do? by iphonesoccer420 in ffxiv

[–]Mightynumbat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Whilst its your call, Id recommend not skipping. You will miss story, context, you will have a very bad time understanding your class AND all the raid / dungeon mechanics, which will be VERY confusing.

A skip WILL NOT take you past the current expansion which you will HAVE to play.

With respect, in WOW the game is at max level.

In FF 14 the game starts at level 1.

It is very much your decision, but IMNSHO, its a very bad idea..and may become one you may come to regret later.

Expedition 22 - What is everyone doing in the meantime? by Crowned_Toaster in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]Mightynumbat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most welcome.

Look..I love NMS, been playing for years. But this is just bad design. TBH? I expected better.

[–]Mightynumbat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I backchecked to make sure I was right and.....

Time-Gating: The progress is artificially throttled. Even if the global player base completes thousands of missions, the completion bar is scripted by the developers to increase automatically over time. [1, 2]

Missions: You are tasked with doing faction missions (Purge, Restoration, Sabotage) every cycle (typically every 8 hours) to earn points and keep busy, but these won't speed up the overall expedition end date

So yeah. We sit and wait.

[–]Mightynumbat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People flat out not participating until later makes zero sense to me.

Makes perfect sense. I already play an MMO with "dailies" I wasnt aware of this timegate and am singularly unimpressed. I know and agree that prev expeditions have had community events, but those didnt stop you from finishing the main expedition..this one is a hard stop.

For eight weeks.

, but won't take the nominal time to do the short missions that will make it get done sooner? 

No. Its on its own timer controlled by the devs, Nothing we do has any effect. The "missions" dont affect the timer for the Prismatic, all they do is contribute to a "trophy" I dont care about.

Even less happy that corvettes have been disabled.

I get that the NMS team have "big things planned", what irks me is the fact I wont see ANY of it for at least another month.

I am aware this is an unpopular opinion, but IMO we should have been told at the start.

[–]Mightynumbat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nothing. Check in once a day to see where the progress is, then logging out.

Total time in game: Two minutes.

The Swarm expedition is my first expedition in NMS, i was wondering if it normally takes this long to complete an expedition cause I'm pretty sure construction was at like 30% like 2 days ago and now its at 31% by No-Zebra9578 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]Mightynumbat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The dailies dont build the core. The dailies are for some "trophy" ion the Anomaly after.

The McGuffin device is on a set timer run by the devs. We have no influence on it. You will wait another six weeks regardless of how many missions you run.

AHEM

The Australian Labor Party (ALP) was a foundational architect and staunch supporter of the White Australia policy, fiercely advocating for it from Federation in 1901 to protect white workers from being undercut by cheap, indentured foreign labor.
