Hunter~SPARTA~

Happy birthday dude!

I've been running a local server to get a friend that's new to the game up to speed. The revamp definitely changes the early game in survival quite a bit. It's been good, though, I'm enjoying the new blocks.

Not sure which version you need Luggs, so here's all of them. steamID: STEAM_1:1:6546178 steamID3: [U:1:13092357] steamID64: 76561197973358085 Also, that one clever bastard seems to be playing every time I get on

Today is the day! And the game is free to play all weekend for anyone that hasn't played it yet. https://forum.keenswh.com/threads/update-1-189-major-overhaul-of-survival-ladders-leaving-early-access.7402606/

Yep, LOS works.

Picked it up and played a few hours last night. Had a few good rounds when communication was good and some very infuriating rounds with non-cohesive teammates. Look forward to getting a Sparta squad together, but do have concerns about being able to everyone into the same server and onto the same team. There were only 3 full-ish servers last night and it took me a few minutes to get into one just on my own.

Good read on the clan system: https://division.zone/2019/02/22/lone-wolf-time-to-take-a-look-at-the-division-2s-clan-system/

The next big update for SE is releasing on the 28th. Lots of survival tweaks. And the game officially leaves Early Access, for what that's worth. Full post: https://blog.marekrosa.org/2019/02/space-engineers-release-date.html

Happy birthday!

So, what was the verdict? I've read lots of opinions online, but the majority of the complaints were focused on the PvP and dark zone stuff. Also, sounds like there will be an open beta coming up before the release: Link to article

Happy birthday!

My God, Halli. Internet explorer and AOL Mail? The 90's are over, bro. Time to move on! 🤣🤣🤣

Appreciate the offer, but save the invite for someone who can get more use out of it. I won't get more than couple hours, at most, the whole beta period.

I have to play Army this weekend, unfortunately. Let me know how it is!

Happy birthday dude!

Thanks fellas. Just been doing a bit of cooking this week as my "celebration". Did white chicken chili in the Crock-Pot on Sunday, pulled pork on the smoker Tuesday and just put a brisket on the smoker this evening. First time attempting brisket, fingers crossed!

Steam does their image gallery very weird, so its not super straight forward. Go to your Steam gallery Click the thumbnail image you want to bring it full size Right click the full size image Click "Copy Image Address" (I'm using Chrome, might be worded different in other browsers) In your forum post, type in "[img=" Hit CTRL+V to paste the image link Put a "]" at the end of the link Example: [img=https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/259335280243175059/D3462DE5DB96CFB9B7D0D86BB4FFCC6D3A36C572/?imw=1024&imh=576&ima=fit&impolicy=Letterbox&imcolor=%23000000&letterbox=true] Result:

Allegedly, if you log into the game this week you get a free operator unlock: https://www.windowscentral.com/rainbow-six-siege-holiday-pack

Got home last night, ready to get some game time in today... But my Internet has apparently been down for several days and the wife never called to get a tech sent out. Might be until Thursday before they can someone here to replace their equipment. 🤬

How long do the global events last and what's the best use for credits starting out?

Happy birthday bro!

Happy birthday!
