I am genuinely happy that Indian Fatigue is mainstream. It's the arrogance mixed with absolute lack of self-awareness, talent, basic hygiene, and refusing to integrate in better (read: white) cultures. Should have just let us have Apu, you guys were fine when you were the occasional gas station worker. Now you're literally a global plague. Every single country you've invaded hates you, and you have nobody to blame but yourselves.

Space sucks. What people actually mean when they say space is cool is that planets with alien life are cool. Space itself is literally just extremely large expanses of absolute nothingness with the occasional dead rock floating around a fireball. There is more life within 10 feet of your front door than there is across 99.99% of the cosmos.

We're genuinely a telescope generation or two away from finally being able to put some hard error bars on how common life in the universe might be.
If you can look at the spectroscopy of an exoplanet, you can figure out what is in its atmosphere.
If you were to look at earth the same way you'd instantly know something really fucking weird was happening because the atmosphere is a byproduct of life itself. You don't get an oxygen rich atmosphere for long unless its being constantly replenished because oxygen loves to strip electrons to become an inert oxide (like rust, or carbon dioxide, or tarnished brass). Oxygen is a nasty fucking element on its own, and we only take it for granted because we evolved in it. If you were some silicon based lifeform flying by earth you would be horrified that ANYTHING could live in that environment. A chlorine atmosphere would be less hazardous.

The problem is planets are really fucking big. Its really hard to have a game that transitions from the vastness of space to the scale of a planet.
Even in subnautica, you're on a massive ocean world, but you're still stuck in a relatively small part of the map.
I don't know that there is any good way to scale to a space-opera sized area to explore without limiting how much you can actually explore, or resorting to massive deserted proc-gen horseshit.
I think once your scale gets so big, you're better off with a top-down kind of view, like a 4X game, where planets aren't much more than a build queue and an info-box.

Can you believe that some Elite players want Frontier to add landable garden worlds? Because surely it would feel so much more immersive to have a galaxy of ten million Earth like planets with the same recycled 30 species of life, than it would be to read the weird information generated for those worlds implying all sorts of wild biospheres.

There are certainly some bad chinks with similar decorum as the pajeets. I've seen both openly shitting in public places and tourists spots when they visit. However all the Indians, of all castes and creed are evil little jealous low IQ creatures, while some chinese are intelligent enough to rise above their station.

When Poojeets cry and seethe that they arent the ones who pooed in the street or drank cow piss, they blame the pakistanis, or the lower castes or the next village over, while its just covering their asses as they are exactly the same. When the chinks blame someone its always their mainlanders which is pretty accurate, they are actual bug people

They should just make Elite Dangerous 2 at this point. On foot gameplay was very poorly integrated into ED and if they started over with it already in place, they could have better VR support and much requested features like being able to interact with and enjoy your ship's interior right from the get go, as well as having garden worlds with breatheable air (they should be exceptionally rare though, and most of them are at the center of the major population bubbles).

Man, that was last week. They just dropped a big patch into the game today. While it did have a metric ton of welcome QoL fixes, improvements and workarounds, it also fucked up the metrics for new system colonies, juicing the influence of the primary port and nerfing the effects of every single facility built after. Supposedly to 'add diversity' to systems even though it does no such thing. Real reason is they want more people to buy the P2W station for their first station because who would want to place one later in the development only to have its OP stats nerfed?

I remember exploring being surprisingly comfy in VR despite how simple and monotonous it was. Before logging off I'd either land on a comfy planet, or exit from hyperspace into empty space and drift in silence.
Whenever I'd fuck up and buzz a star it was also really cozy to cycle through the systems for auto-repair. The sound design is really good. It's a shame they kind of forgot to put a game in there.

Indians just want a better life. I mean, Ukrainians are pretty white skinned and even they flee from their war torn country to live in 1st world nations.
Is it so wrong for an Indian to improve his life?

It's relatively easy to make fuckhuge open worlds with planets and shit, but pretty hard to fill that with meaningful content. Distances are huge, so you're faced with choice between instant travel(making your game a loading screen simulator) or having players spend hours just for acceleration. KSP and the like build the game around orbital mechanics, but those filter out most people even when you give players all the neccessary tools.

it just boggles my mind how tacked on some of the other features of the game are and how unfinished they feel
>combat zones are just a deathball of random ships with random side objectives
Why not give the battle some actual cohesion and have those capital ships hold positions 20-50km apart from one another, sending strikes back and forth? Make the battle as a whole about attacking the enemy capital on the other side instead of just blowing up ships and give some actual use to speedy ships.
>Can still only deploy 1 SLF at a time unless using multicrew which i'm almost positive is an oversight they don't care to fix
You've been able to hire three crew members since they added it and there's never been any use at all for more than one except to steal extra money from you. Why can't I just load down a type-9 with fighter hangars? Why are fighters so limited and lame? No fighter with a torpedo or way to carry extra such ammo in your cargo hold?

When the game first started you could get 'insane' money by trading rare goods from one secret location to a place that demands it and it felt fine for boring space trucking i guess. It let you fly the standard ship around with a low number of goods and afford something cool like maybe an anaconda if you wanted to fight, an asp if you wanted to trade or explore.

Then they nerfed it so to save up a billion credits for a new ship would take thousands of hours grinding something also boring.

There was 0 satisfaction trying to spacetruck standard goods around because the progress bars for making influence spread around was completely worthless as discovered by the community who had thousands of people working together to try to flip control of 1 SINGLE TINY TINY PLANET organically and they still couldnt do it. So have fun fighting for your pve faction when its completely fake and the bars mean nothing.

In addition the standard goods earned you peanuts on delivery instead of 20x that like with the rare goods.

Some of the rare goods like spaceweed were illegal so you had to play the docking while on silent running minigame to blast yourself into the port without the police scanning you. Which at least gave you something to do.

Anyways the flight model was cool but gets old fast. No terrain in space, no abilities, no economy that you can influence, its all shit. Id rather boot up X3 and do space trucking, get my larger ship, get my automatic docking, start buying other trade ships and hiring AI pilots, examine the market dynamics of bring energy cells + material to structure owned by (faction) and watch them produce goods, which then increases supply, which over time lowers price, etc. At least there you can influence the sim and if you're truly an autist could probably build all that shit to rival a faction

Autistic space post coming through.

Tin foil hat back on.

Rolling out a thin sheet of foil, only a couple of tens of atoms across, in space, we can easily carry enough material to cover several footballfields with the stuff today.

On one side of the foil wich can be made from any non-radioactive material, is another foil made from a radioactive material.

Two foils side by side, one radioactive and one not, the net result is a gentle push, a rocket engine that will last the halflife of whatever material you put on the engine side of the foil.

A gentle rotation will ensure uniform unfoiling and a uniform thrust.

At the center of this enourmous sheet of engine, is a probe, smaller than a usb-stick.

You could make it two probes for reduncancy, but why not just launch another ship.

This space probe will acellerate for years, and even with an extremely low acceleration rate, if you do it for long enough, you will quickly reach relativistic speeds.
One problem with space, is that it is not a vacum, there are tiny grains of particles even in interstellar space that will hit your ship with sufficient force to penetrate just about anything.

Lucky for us, we don't care if there are holes in our engine, it will continue to work just fine, our entire ship is an engine with no moving parts and no weak points (apart from the probe).

At the halfway point between sol and for example Gliese 581, we turn the ship around and begin to decelerate.

After perhaps 50 years, we will have a probe at our nearest habitable star.

Now the fuel for our engine is largely used up and we will use this foil as a solar sail, relying on the stars solar wind and the gravity of its satelites for an infinite source of propulsion.
Anonymous No.725624751 [Report]
>>725624638

But our now solar sail has another trick up its sleave.

Because our sail has an every so slight parabolic shape, we can use is to transmit signals to and from earth.

The probe will of course have to be positioned in the focus point of this parabola.

But not only can this parabola shape be used to send signals, it can also be used as an enormous telescope taking pirctures of the various planets orbiting Gliese 581 for our example and relaying them to earth.

The total cost of the probe will be less than that of the latest nvidia graphics card and I don't see why we don't simply do this.

Ten million completely unique garden worlds with separately evolved biospheres of billions of species, and visual fidelity and attention to detail on every square meter of a 1:1 Earth size planet that matches the on-foot gameplay content of E:D Odyssey? Because that's the problem. People do not understand how primitive procedural generation is. Microsoft Flight Sim can barely populate the ground of one Earth like world, of which it has photos of every location to use for it, and if you try to go closer than 50m of anything you cansee that it's just low-poly trash.
Landable populated ELWs is even more impossible, because planets have countries. Countries have cultures. Cultures have histories, art and architectural styles, different governments, economies and corporations, global infrastructure networks, and worse yet... civilians and children, and the ESRB doesn't allow E:D to have that because you'd be able to attack unarmed humans who can't defend themselves.

A proposed logical solution to the Fermi paradox.

Life could exist outside of earth, the problem, is that none of it CAN be intelligent.
Why not?
Why is earth the only intelligent life in the observable universe?

I'll tell you.

Because you wouldn't exist if this wasn't the case.

Simple as.

The likelihood of your existence is so extremely slim, there is a window of opportunity and it necessitates intelligence exclusivity in the universe.

Why?

Let me explain.

If earth is ever visited by aliens, it will not be a visit where we will learn a lot about ancient technology or learn anything at all even.
If earth is visited by aliens it will be a tiny space probe, likely no larger than a tenis ball, containing just enough to start a self reproducing process in which it extracts materials, refine said materials to produce a copy of itself, and launch itself into space again and again and again, over the course of centuries.
To disrupt that process and kill the aliens will be as easy as stepping on them.
The goal, is not to learn anything, that stuff was a cool gimick for a species that still measures itself in kardashev scales.
The goal is simply to be, thats it, the self replicating molecule has a rule of its own, it simply is, you can throw all kids of meanings, purposes at it, and while some of it will stick for a short while, it all eventualy rains off from it, and its back to the basics.
Using the energy from a black hole to power a megastructure to contain simulations of life is like a temporary hobby project that will last a couple billion years, its nothing, meaningless, what good is energy if all you do with it, is simulating life, learn, teach, die, rebirth, rince and repeat.
By doing this you are handicapping yourself, and you will ultimately lose in the long run because of it.

No! space is for conquering and conquering does not look like a space marine strike group with an armada of centrifuges.
It looks like trial and error, if you can't turn a planet into a gigantic factory, producing trillions of probes that can turn planets into giant factories every second because a human stepped on your probe, just try again in a couple thousand years.

It won't be insanely advanced mechanics either, just good enough, just large enough, just robust enough, just acurate enough.
Weighing the options, of failure rates, the cost of failures, and the time it takes, it will adjust its acuracy acordingly, if you have a trillion probes aproaching a planet, who cares if a couple billions miss the planet entirely and simply fly off into space to wait for another planet to crash into.
At the timescales and distance we are working with, warfare will become meaningless.
Every laser, every projectile you fire at probes will be futile, because the probes will keep coming until there is no more materials left in the universe.

Here's another fun fact.

What happens if you are traveling at the speed of light, and then press on the accelerator pedal?

What happens if you in your hypothetical ship, traveling at light speed, run from the back of the ship to the front of it?

You know what happens?

Nothing.
You go faster.
You can totally go faster than the speed of light.

The key is relativity.

When you point your instruments out the window to measure the speed, they will read that you are doing 101% the speed of light.
Problem is that you are also traveling in time.
Which is why you get the illusion of traveling faster than light.
You can in theory travel faster and faster until you cross the galaxy in seconds, but you will also be traveling in time and to anyone observing, you appear nowhere near light speed.

We literally observe weird orbits and infer the existence of other planets and their position, point our telescopes where we calculate it would be and find it.
This is how we found neptune.
We also did the same with black holes which have even more elaborate theories which breaks some of our models.
We first observe a behavior, then we can make predictions based on models we build from those observations.

But I guess I'm talking to someone who doesn't understand how gravity works, and literally believes God glue things to the ground.

The Earth and the building blocks of living organisms on it consist of the most abundant molecules in the galaxy. There are hundreds of billions of star systems in the galaxy. Billions of those have stable main sequence stars. Millions of those have the same compositions. Hydrogen and helium are the most abundant substance in the universe, so any system that has a world like Earth is likely to have gas giants protecting them from impacting interlopers. It took less than a third of the age of the universe for life on our planet to invent radio waves, and then a tiny amount of time for them to abandon global radio communication in favor of fiber optics that have no galactic emissions. It is astronomically improbable for there to not be tens of millions of star systems where conditions are not just equal, but perhaps even better. Your existence is not just not unique in the universe, but extremely unlikely to be unique just in this galaxy. And the reason you can't hear radio broadcasts from other civilizations is that twice as far away is four times weaker, and any advanced civilization stops using radio waves to send messages across countries.

Your world isn't special. Cope.

No you haven't. I'd venture to guess you haven't talked to another person except maybe a cashier or fast food service worker, in years.

Time dilation gives you the illusion of traveling faster than light.
It takes infinite energy to travel to light speed, but at light speed, time dilation is 100% meaning you'll cover the observable universe in 0 perceived time, even though light actually takes several trillion years to cover that distance.
Now it starts to make sense how traveling to light speed takes infinite energy.
At some point time dilation and perceived or relative speed overlaps, and you look out the window to see yourself traveling faster than light when in reality you aren't.
You're simply observing the world in fast forward mode.

If you haven't been surprised at space ignorance among normies, you clearly either haven't spoken to many normies or you are an ignorant normies yourself.

they were the industry leaders and had a basic monopoly on the space exploration genre and proeceeded to do almost nothing with it for a decade.

I remember saying on the ED forums that Odyssey was just going to be a 1:1 recreation of ship combat with legs and they told me I was a troll or a doomer and they'd never do something like that. Then it actually happened and the same regular posters pretended it was a good thing actually. ED players get what they fucking deserve.

You guys do realize Elite was made 99.99% procedural generation, and for ED it became a pretext to fake ocean-sized universe, with the gameplay depth of a puddle and as much grind as possible, right?
Can't be criticized for that if that's how the original was (even if old games did have planetary landing).

So why would ED2 be any different?
At most they'll be forced to integrate the leg-DLC by default, if competitors still exist with that feature.
But it will still be designed as a grind to artificially increase the time spent playing, and push toward Pay2skip DLC.

>>725624960
>Because that's the problem. People do not understand how primitive procedural generation is
Actually, it's a game design problem.
You do not need a million worlds and procedural species, only as much as you can make into the best possible gameplay.
Suspension of disbelief will take care of why you can't land on every single parcel.

Microsoft Flight Sim goal is to have the best piloting possible, everything else is mere decoration.
Star Citizen may be aiming way above their means and adding pointless feature, they are still doing it right by concentrating content where it matters.

We have been using hubble scape telescope and use of spectroscopy to note the wave lengths of a celestial body to determine its composition and its potential for life. We've also found weird shit through waves careening through space only to hit earth and thats how we discovered pulsars and the potentially fro quark and planc stars.

The problem is not that but rather:
>they will work for less money (bringing down the pay for everyone else)
>they will cause more crimes (for more unsafe cities)
>they will shit in the streets (for a more unclean community)
>they will keep to groups of their race (and thus they will not imitate us white men and will keep acting like shitskins instead)

nta, but our current detection of exoplanet anywhere far (even in our own galaxy) still rely on superearth size planet passing in front of its star to be detected.
So I agree with >>725619276 that we are far from finding life that's not already technological.

Of course, the Fermi paradox still look either disappointing or tricky. I'm kinda hoping there's some Prime directive out there of non-intervention, treating us as a wildlife preservation project and hiding their planet, because at least it would mean there's intelligent lifeform in this universe.

You can still play in Horizons mode and even play with players using Odyssey now. You just can't access Odyssey on-foot areas. Otherwise the two versions are pretty much fully integrated now.
