Awesome. Soon she'll be a cold blooded killer!

I only post here if EvE is offline. Which means my posts are never well timed.

At first I was going to say what fun would EVE be IF you had to be stoned to play it, then i realized that is a solid gold solution.


What do you mean"If"?

Alright so just now she got a good 40 minutes in and with full screen (she refused to maintain window mode)
Hopefully with the travel band and a lil more time just getting used to the game she will be able to play independently with no symptoms popping up.


Be careful what you wish for Cool

Try INCREASING your frame rate. The average human perceives a 60hz flicker as a steady stream of light. However, certain people (like pilots) have been documented detecting flicker as high as 148hz. If your fps is set at only 60, your wife might detect this as a flicker thus making her nauseous. Try at 120 fps and see if this helps.

Playing a laggy server on space engineers for an entire day gives me an outright headache, as if gravity + lag weren't a bad enough combo. I lost roughly 10 mining ships to gravity before the base missles bugged out and obliterated the next one I was building, and I quit.

As for fps's I've been playing them my whole life. No real issues as i'm used to it like many others, it can make you feel ill sometimes if you play too long though.

Oh, I perfectly understand, Hal Morsh — a mission like this requires courage, skill, and heroism… qualities you are clearly lacking. Have you forgotten you're one of the bloody immortals!?

This is the cutest thread ever!

The man is on a special COSMOS mission (of love and chivalry), but the obstacles are tricky to overcome.
In the first wave: "she likes having all the "pretty stuff" turned way up"
And if that wave is survived then there comes the intensified resistance: "she refused to maintain window mode" ......
[I died]

I demand this man is rewarded by CCP with a special ingame trinket (bling) to adorn his lovely wife's avatar!

I agree, there's not much obvious evidence of total sweethearts who play this game, but actually I've met more than a few playing it.

I think this is the second time you've managed to crack me up with tales of the wifey. I think it's something to do with me reading your posts like they're written by Christopher Lee.
