Maybe I can still have one last final shot, fly to an asteroid and mine some resources - but it's a very long chance. This cost me 1/2 of my last healthy warp cell. I now towed the station to a final, very high orbit where no one should find me, and where I will almost certainly die. This is what the last hours on the Kursk must have been like. So this is how I spend my days and nights in near constant darkness, switching on the air filters at intervals. Even with everything from the refinery I now have not enough air left to pressurize my complete station, and I must depressurize and wear a suit every time I go to the cargo hold or the fabricator. Then, just when I had managed the final docking operation of the fabricator (which required me to discard the crew quarter module that is completely useless) and I could have relaxed a little, I lost nearly 2/3th of my entire air supply by pulling the wrong undock lever, nearly the entire ship depressurized. I probably will have to recycle everything on the ship at some point, and it will still not be enough. Was it even worth it? I can barely use it to produce a couple of carbon filters and then I will be out of resources. My only pride is the fabricator module that I towed from the danger zone and completely repaired. I moved my battered station (for some reason it had been severely damaged from the very start) to higher and higher orbits, which became more and more impossible due to the fact that I had already cannibalized my entire Helium-3 store on the first day - this leaves me out of power almost all the time because the little bit of juice from the solarpanels ain't shit. Well, all I can say is this game is fucking amazing!įor three days I have led a miserable existence on the brink of suffocation. As it is it will probably die and peter out some time in 2010 because they cannot get the funds and solve the problems. In fact I wished this was a bigger company and could set up a game like Star Citizen, because I have a feeling they really care for the hard scifi. this is definitely a game I would recommed for its seriousness but it has the makings of a second job.īut yeah so far I like dying and the EVAs feel like scenes from the 2010 movie. One way to play this would be to team up with some other people and one guy plays the odd hours and then the other take the other shifts. It seems people do the same things over and over again because the game is basically set up to destroy your station within a few days. Yesterday I made my first FTL jump to a higher orbit, but now it sticks out like a sore thumb and will probably be raided. So I suffocated in front of it in my own spacesuit Turned out I had not known you need to click on the cryopod somewhere at the botton and therefore never entered it. The first time I had docked the starter modules I came back the next day and was dead. One thing that I don't think I like is that you need to plan your playtime even when not in the game.
HELLION CARGO BAY MODULE WILL NOT UNDOCK HOW TO
The game also requires to figure out how to dock modules.ĭid you play recently? Because I had no performance problems so far in ~10 hours, but I play on mostly empty servers. If you are not mighty careful when opening doors you get blown out by the pressure, of course this happened a few times which was hilarious, especially when I forgot to close my helmet. Then my my energy supply broke down because my station had entered the shadow of the planet! I had to learn how to move in zero gravity. Anyway, I really liked the first 6 hours in which I only died once, but that is certainly gonna change when I get cockierĪt first I had to activate a lot of modules then learn how to transfer air between modules, depressurize, replace parts and so on. The mere idea of a casul playing this for the first time with the learning curve hitting like a truck makes me chuckle. Now - I don't own Children of a Dying Earth yet - but I must say this is one of the hardest games I have come across in the last 15 years! It feels a bit like a hard sci fi version of System shock without monsters and shit, with real Newtonian physics and the player needs to figure out everything himself. I actually purchased this today and quickly changed my opinion - this is right down my alley!
