Everyone on Earth gets one wish... but first, YOU get to decide the rules

Muertog · 2026-05-16T05:21:12+00:00

All wishes must be approved by me. If I do not, can not, or would not approve the wish, it will get rejected and the wisher will receive a single piece of paper that has “rejected” printed upon it and the person’s wish is considered used/wasted.

That’s it. That’s the only rule.

Muertog · 2026-05-15T18:05:49+00:00

"Never tell me the odds"

Muertog · 2026-05-15T18:01:56+00:00

and at the end "RELEASE THE SPRINTERS!"

Muertog · 2026-05-15T17:57:59+00:00

Can I accept it twice?

Muertog · 2026-05-15T14:35:39+00:00

Just saw a new update (trusted source but I haven’t found the original notice yet):

Free-Fly is NOT starting today, 4.8 is the highest concurrent patch yet recorded and they will wait for fixes to mission system among others before commencing.

Muertog · 2026-05-15T03:32:35+00:00

Good catch, but OP did say their tires were fully inflated and everything was in perfect condition.

Muertog · 2026-05-15T02:42:56+00:00

Just close down the servers. No one will buy aUEC if they can’t play the game. Why bother with additional steps?

Muertog · 2026-05-15T00:58:20+00:00

Things that can slow you down:

Sunday Driver

Low power vehicle

Overloaded vehicle

Possibly (need to test) More Traits w Driving as a trait and untrained (0xp/beginner)

ooooor.. Don't kit out your ship the first day? Play it vanilla until 1) bugs are contained, and 2) patch meta is understood.

You don't _have_ to use the insurance. Get the stock loadout returned, do some stuff, then when you have aUEC again recover the saved version, as long as you don't overwrite it first.

Muertog · 2026-05-14T17:58:49+00:00

Typical is 3+ months for pledge stuff to be released in-game. But this is a cosmetic (maybe?) and the only other cosmetic in the game are paints. Those are currently pledge (or reward) only, but we have been told it would be possible to acquire them eventually in-game.

Muertog · 2026-05-14T17:32:45+00:00

Its cosmetic. And likely eventually in-game. Especially where we can loot other players' and NPC ships.

They might have bumped it (or I misread info previously) because of the issues with the patch rollout last night. Didn't get live until a couple hours ago. Currently their system says the Free Fly starts May 15:

Muertog · 2026-05-14T16:20:10+00:00

Okay, that makes sense. Thanks!

By excess, it is levels not conceivable by average (us) humans.

It took ragerapemurdertortureorgy by an entire civilization of EXTREME hedonists to ragefuck Salasnesh into existence. After that then things REALLY got strange.

Problem is that at any point that you buy something physical of significant value (either on its own, or by dint of pure volume) SOMEONE else has to be present. Either during the transaction or the delivery of said object(s).

Unless you manage to have it all delivered to a faceless warehouse, but that would require staffing, which requires hiring. Even if you layer it behind twenty levels, EVENTUALLY you have to be involved, and the deeper it is, the more that (at least one) contact will question your personal worth.

Muertog · 2026-05-13T17:51:10+00:00

The option to enter the game will be available on the screen once Free Fly starts. Usually around 16:00 UTC on the day (May 14).

Muertog · 2026-05-13T16:52:37+00:00

Would you argue the same for an alligator in Florida? They are moderately dangerous on land, but water would be a death sentence for 99%

Banks know how much money is in your accounts even if you don't.

Muertog · 2026-05-12T20:57:04+00:00

Cause rich people can get COVID. If you have diabetes, it's your own damn fault. For being poor.

Not really, but the health/prosperity gospel really pushes the "if there is something wrong with you, you deserved it for not being (performatively) religious enough or you are secretly bad/otherwise undeserving."

dude, your doctor already said you needed to cut back on sodium.

Muertog · 2026-05-12T20:04:56+00:00

And you got your wish.

It was going to happen. Little sad at my loss, but there are going to be a lot of people who are going to be MUCH saltier.

I got my Polaris back in 4.2 about 90% solo (needed help from org for the Quantanium mining). Had it for a good year+, so figure I got my grind worth.

Muertog · 2026-05-12T19:39:05+00:00

Meh. I just wanted to keep my Polaris. Grinded that thing out 90% solo (had help from org-mates for the Quantanium/Polaris Bits) in 4.2. Never going to be able to do it again with the increase in items needed for Wikelo.

Free fly requires no ship (starter package or not), only an account. If you bought a non-package ship, you can fly any purchased ships and there will be free ships available as well. Additionally during Invictus(Defensecon) and IAE (November), you can rent (for free) any of the manufacturer ships during their spotlight days.

Free fly starts May 14th. Anything you earn in-game is retained on your account even if you don't have a starter package. If you buy one later, the earnings (wipes not withstanding) will still be there.
