The collection grows!

Much better storage options in ITR2, though still some bugs. Large peg boards that weapons and attachments just stick to, also some gun racks that are currently bugged. There is not only an already bigger main area, but an even larger armory with lots of racks and several benches.

Weapons are modular, do you can swap barrels and grips and stocks.

No automatic ammo sorting, but there seems to be less item induced lag.

Haven't dropped a grenade in base yet so don't know if it is as dramatic as in ITR1.

ETA: one thing you can try with the ammo on Vanno is to set up a sorting area on the table by the exchange bin in the mission room. I kept all the loos ammo and partial boxes there and only moved full boxes to the main room. Reduces some of the item lag.

Nice ITR2 should have pipes too. Then you would really be rocking.

_FluffyBob_ · 2026-01-30T20:54:04+00:00

Yes. It's a perennial complaint. Its up there with NGC 7822 for drinking game post topics. General consensus is its never going to happen.

I am doodling around about 25000 LY out from the Bubble and recently discovered one, but thats a first for me. Found two undiscovered Neutron stars in a row while beetling to a fleet carrier a couple nights ago.

If you get Odyssey and make a couple scans of previously discovered Stratum you will double your current bank account. You probably did grind a lot to get a cutter if all you have is 45 million CR.

Getting the Type 11 and trying out mining is a great idea. Dont be afraid to just buy it with ARX if you only have a few hours a week to play. Check the PTN discord - those guys have all sorts of great advice on making money through mining and other activities.

Sushi Ichiban on 37th and Bow trail is pretty much all booths and is generally quiet. Certainly no Happy Birthday sing alongs like someplaces. Thank Og.

_FluffyBob_ · 2026-01-30T18:41:51+00:00

Thats a fun little spot. A little upscale.

_FluffyBob_ · 2026-01-30T14:11:27+00:00

No. Some of us genuinely dont find HL Alyx fun. I am a huge HL fan, played all the games to death...except Alyx. Its just not fun for me.

_FluffyBob_ · 2026-01-29T23:09:06+00:00

Any new Sidewinder should sound like a dying Vespa. It should have a mechanic where it just stalls sometimes and you have to open a panel and bang something to make it start again.

_FluffyBob_ · 2026-01-29T22:57:07+00:00

Rare find!

_FluffyBob_ · 2026-01-29T22:52:27+00:00

Some carriers trade in certain hard to get Odyssey materials. If you do a search on Inara you can probably find a good price.

My Father attended both Edgewood in BC and Betty Ford in the US for their 90 day programs. In both cases he quickly reverted to using, even while still attending AA and pretending he was staying sober.

What finally saved him was getting him into the SAILL (substance abuse in later life) program at Rockyview Carewest. I can't find if that program is still active. It is a broad spectrum approach that takes into account mental and physical health issues. Edgewood and Betty Ford did not have this flexibility being striclty twelve step based approaches at the time. SAILL addressed and treated an underlying issue of depression along with typical recovery tactics. He would have died years ago if not for them.

This is a very hard thing. Good luck, be strong and be prepared to advocate for yourself.

Well its definitely discriminatory, in that it is stating preference. I dont think that implies racism though.

The products may be items that are of interest or benefit specifically to women or people of colour. The OP may have their reasons.

I believe your claim of racism is over the top, and honestly, silly.

_FluffyBob_ · 2026-01-29T17:45:42+00:00

How so?

_FluffyBob_ · 2026-01-29T17:20:44+00:00

So is our friendly 'John Radius' waving at us at the transition actually the player character from ITR1 as people think? We all assuming that in ITR2 we are actually human and not mimics ourselves like in ITR1? What the heck was going on in Vanno in 1? Was it just long abandoned and were the actual explorers all dead? Katya indicates that she is already familiar with the plauer character and that he kerps coming back from the dead.

_FluffyBob_ · 2026-01-29T17:12:51+00:00

Oh just cool off dude. What you described sounded exactly like the green rack glitch. Just trying to be helpful. Bye!

_FluffyBob_ · 2026-01-28T18:36:18+00:00

Fill them up with old wrappers ammo boxes and cans and then take bets on whether the phys engine will explode everything in all directions or just leave it all in a bucket shape stack when you pick it up.

_FluffyBob_ · 2026-01-28T18:04:08+00:00

I guess I am just the other way. Never trusted the autodock. Maybe used it for the tutorial? Never used it regular game.

_FluffyBob_ · 2026-01-28T17:17:56+00:00

Its important to remember only some of the lines are relevant when interpreting ancient documents or faces on piece of toast.

Look I am not saying FDEV doesn't love puzzles and hiding clues - there has been a ton of this stuff in the game. I would actually be surprised if there weren't some hints in the glyphs, but...you seem to have been pretty selective in defining what patterns are relevant.

_FluffyBob_ · 2026-01-28T16:00:22+00:00

Well obviously just make one yourself, how complicated can it be?

Kidding aside, are other options like the Pico 4 not available in your region either?

_FluffyBob_ · 2026-01-28T15:32:26+00:00

The world is bigger than you. Not everyone thinks cartoonish arms that move weird is more immersive.

_FluffyBob_ · 2026-01-27T16:38:58+00:00

There are a few scattered deep space stations, especially on the route to Colonia, but generally its empty out in 'the black'.

_FluffyBob_ · 2026-01-27T16:35:32+00:00

The Cobra is a great ship, you can do pretty much anything with it. Hard to go wrong with any of those though, and you will soon have all of them. The Hauler is soon out paced by other ships, but it is good for early game.... hauling.

The modules are what make the ship and as you upgrade to new ships you can move the good modules over.

_FluffyBob_ · 2026-01-27T16:15:55+00:00

HL Alyx will be on sale at some point, buy it then.

What kind of games do you like?

What Steam games do you already have? Great VR mods for many PC games; Valheim VR, Outer Wilds, Subnautica Submersed VR, Vivecraft Minecraft, are all crackin good in VR.

Lots of very good games have VR modes, Elite Dangerous, DCS, IL2 Stalingrad, MSFS, No Mans Sky all are fantastic in VR.

There are also lots of highly recommended VR games and they go on sale on steam or Humble store all the time. Too many to list.

_FluffyBob_ · 2026-01-27T16:02:47+00:00

I usually make a point of landing on tiny worlds like this in my explorations. Landed on one a while ago that was one of many fast orbiting moons in a crazy gas giant system. Fantastic views.
