HPA2

For the members of this board who aren't crossovers (ie EBBS first, then joined Oolite) does anyone read the EBBS? do they keep up the fiction in play there like HPA2? or do you tend to stick to the Oolite WOrrld?

Pop Quiz: I take out a loan with the blank monks, then uninstall the black monk OXP. what do you do? what do you do?

Do you find yourself with a 20K loan and no one who wants it back? or do you crash life the universe and everything?

Oh ok, I thought MAegil was hinting at something before.


No, the bug is real slow game play, pauses, glitched screens and then goodo ld fashioned freezes which need a reboot to get rid of.

I guess I had better repay the buggers then...

This is of course, my opinion and nthing else.

you should cater to your audience and if the ppl reading love it, keep donig it. it just makes me cringe, not smile. maybe thats just me? perhaps im too analytical.

A double twist. who is telling the truth? very interesting. On another note, the constant lines of dialogue pulled from star wars and references to the hitch hikers guide totally cheapen the experience for me. It makes the story feel like a kid wrote it - be brave enough to stand on your own two fee...

Good in theory, but it takes so long to get the money to buy a boa or anacondayou hve to do what corbeau talks about for awhile. Any whenever i hit any system, they never have more than about 40-50 tonne of computers anyway, so an anaconda would be a waste anyway, wouldn't it? On another note, i wen...
