Expedition 12 - Omega (Spoilers)

Valentines day becomes a day of rest I imagine once you get long enough into a marriage. (state of marriage depending)

“Hey we know we love eachother, we’ve been doing our best all year, can we give eachother the day off?”

Was trying to find a live performance of an artist I heard the other day and YouTube keeps throwing cowboys at me.

Never the cowboy I’m looking for, but the giant ghost cowboy somehow fits the current moment, so well. Thanks synchronicity

He lets us know when it’s time to saddle up.

I googled the first crappy browser based AI image generator to bring us this vision of the Omega Cowboy.

Prompt was “Omega Symbol on Cowboy, oil painting”

This’ll do, didn’t even ask for the Stargate.

edit: gave the really dumb browser ai the same prompt minus the oil painting part. Close enough.

That’s no stargate. As fas as the artificial stupidity is concerned, that’s probably the Omega…

A Star Omegate? It’s still not wrong. but it’s so far removed from being right. Noise Diffusion Image Generation in a nutshell.

Starting to think they all got the day off in Guildford for Valentines Day '^_ ^

Looks like, a bunch of buds customising a ship.

Dont feckin do this to us Sean if there aint no custom ships like everyone thinks there will be every update XD

I’m starting to think it’s ready to go, but to avoid what happened last time they’re waiting for console certification maybe before pushing it to the rest of us. And that’s never something you can really schedule around unfortunately; as they learned last time when it got the big ol rejection on the patch certification.

Awww come on, it’s a really cool picture. It would have been sad to miss it, update or no.

(Not sure what that guy on top there is doing, though. There’s no projectile based ship weapons, as far as I know…)

I love how angry the Vy’Keen is at the Gek pit crew member who sprayed the sexy gek decal on to his ship <3

Things are getting serious now, folk pulling out the spreadsheets on twitter and running the data through simulations

Kinda reminds me of old 40k models (possibly new ones too, haven’t checked in an age) where you’d have lil gretchins/grots loading ammo feeds into Ork armaments etc


Best image I could find for what i was referencing, but I recall having a model of an Ork vehicle, and the lil grot had a sorta Emelia Earhart style hat on and was feeding an ammo belt into it.

I watched those old vids of SM playing thru NMS and realized I had forgotten that when we scan and upload flora and fauna in the game, we are uploading it to the Atlas. :upside_down_face:

I survived the face of eternity. I saw all the worlds of my universe.

I returned to the Atlas… I told them what I had done. I asked if it was proud of me.

It… it laughed at me, I am sure of it.
