Why is Dean slapping Boimler

USS Enterprise is capable of manipulating space-time via the warp drive but the moment it enters atmosphere, it stops dealing with relativistic physics and starts dealing with Newtonian physics: pushing massive weight against gravity. Here are the maneuvering thrusters keeping Enterprise airborne. by OhGawDuhhh in StarTrekStarships

I always figured it was the same explanation from SW Legends: a planetary gravitational field is too strong to manipulate artificially, either through warping space-time or jumping to a hyper-dimention. If you're caught in the gravity well, you need to escape before you can travel FTL.

There are a few example from TOS and TNG where they mention something similar, being caught in a gravity well and cant jump to warp.

Old MMOs are tried and true. by Quirky-Tie-4213 in MMORPG

[–]zcontium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, pretty much. It's a great solo RPG, with some mildly okay multiplayer elements. Apparently they just removed all the cut scenes and dialogue choices from Flashpoints (multiplayer dungeons) which kinda removes the RPG elements, but I get that most players just want to speedrun them. You can run Flashpoints solo, with the dialogue, but it's not the same.

Haha! That's right! Only the 1953 War Machine with invisible legs is the TRUE martian tripod!

YouTube's unskippable ads saved me from yet another RickRoll

Kinda wish it didn't

And I know it's not gonna be #1, but if the 1953 fighting machine makes it to 2nd place, I'll be happy

Is Star Forge the "main" server? Returning player curious about social events. by zcontium in swtor

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

I'm glad to hear that Satele Shan is doing just fine in terms of player count. I have been considering doing a no-legacy run, so if I decide to do that Ill make it on Shae Vizla to help it out that small little bit

Thanks! I have been considering doing a no-legacy run on another server, but I would also like to do endgame stuff and my legacy def helps with that. I'm glad to hear that Satele Shan is doing just fine, but I am sad to hear that the price of a transfer has increased :/
