I was regaling a friend with the tale of the infamous cloud man that tweets on every Sean Murray post about the clouds since NEXT arrived.
How he went from mild annoyance to someone who’s posts we eagerly anticipate and would worry about if he ever stopped, who we assume at this stage is just a comedic troll (I’d only get depressed if his rage was true and this consistent so I have to assume he’s taking the piss)

My friend came up with this great idea that I am now enacting.

Every time he asks about the clouds, (which are mind blowingly beautiful even on console; volumetric clouds that I’ve always wished for like in no other game :heart_eyes: totally worth the artifacting caused when viewed from within a freighter or space craft, a drawback no doubt from the method used…) I will post this image.

I highly doubt I’m the first person to respond to him with this but hopefully I can be as consistent with it as he is with his “complaint” :joy:

Someone wanted it to be more challenging.

Had to lob in the grenade from the side. I’ve learned to never stand close to the door when doing so.
