Griff's Prototype Boa?

Post by Zed »

Howdy howdy howdy.

I was getting some OXPs together while Elite: Dangerous was down the other day but couldn't get the [wiki]Griff Boa[/wiki] box download to work. Other Box downloads worked out just fine but not that one. Is there any alternative download available for it?

Welcome aboard, Commander... try this one!
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!

Hello Zed, Welcome to the friendliest board this side of Reidquat.

Thankfully Oolite never experiences such issues. :)

Yup. The always online and the locking of pretty much every single paint job in a cash shop were things that I had to really consider when looking at E:D but I find myself really enjoying the exploration aspects though. The Explorer's Club brings some kind of similar gameplay to Oolite but isn't really the same.

Cim's Song of the Labyrinth work-in-progress might help to scratch that itch ...

:shock: That's one I'll have to keep an eye on. It sounds like a it's a whole lot different from the standard experience.

Oh, it's different alright - you even have to steer your ship through hyperspace!
