I was not there, Gandalf. This was before even my time.
Ahhh, now I see. That makes sense. Thanks for the video!
More than I expected. I appreciate your honesty. How is it thus far? Any highlights?
Constable, did you in fact watch all 9.5hrs?

How many assholes we got on this plane?
So I watched a video on its history and I agree about the devs. They seem like they are responsive, hard-working and passionate about their game.
It has come a long way. I’m still shocked I’m just now learning about it, and that it isn’t more visible. It’s exactly what I’ve been wanting to play for a long time.
I’d much rather play this than Battlefield or Call of Duty.
Oh I know I live under one. Thanks for the insight! This looks like too much fun. I hope these things were/are eventually addressed.
I’m with you. I’ve wanted more players, larger maps, and less emphasis on graphics (cause they’ve been pretty good) for awhile now. I think back on games that were fun and addictive: they weren’t pretty but blocky. Yet it didn’t matter.
Contemporary graphics are amazing, I admit. I also find it difficult to put a release date on any games from the last 5-8 years. They look pretty similar in graphics to my eye.
Am I wrong for being willing to sacrifice some graphic sophistication for the sake of say a 128v128 game in a destructible environment?
Now you’re talkin!
At the deployment site, a remotely operated vehicle retrieved a cable containing the fiber optic and power wiring from the seafloor and brought it to the surface where it was checked and attached to the datacenter, and the datacenter powered on.
Sadly, it sounds like power is coming from the shore.
Underwater datacenters could also serve as anchor tenants for marine renewable energy such as offshore wind farms or banks of tidal turbines, allowing the two industries to evolve in lockstep.
But I think this is their plan for energy in the future.
