Yeah I love losing hours of work because they can't get a physics engine working in a sane manner

That's what Sandra Bullock thought when she wondered why the debris from the ISS was moving in a retrograde orbit.

Oh well lucky for her that the chinese space station had the same inclination and LAN as the hubble telescope.

Marvelous. I'll get to it in a few hours, I'm not home right now.

I'm kinda iffy about getting Space Engineers. Like, I want it, but at the same time I feel like I'd get tired of it in less than 10 hours.

was there a question in there somewhere? I'm certainly not going to recommend the game in its current state.

Why is that? General bugginess?

Multiplayer in particular is pretty buggy. There's not really a lot of goals that present themselves, so whether you'll enjoy the game depends on whether you'll have fun just making stuff that isn't strictly necessary to make, either in creative or survival.

I'd probably have fun being sort of like an armaments designers,  as in designing tanks and fighters, even if they don't get used. I dunno, maybe I will buy it, and if I do maybe I could hop in the Bay12 TS and the Boatmurdered server and learn the game that way.

I also got Arma 3

Welp, I guess that settles it. I'll try to download it overnight.

the game in its current state is a buggy mess that causes your shit to randomly explode, there are no goals and no content. Even Minecraft has more gameplay. Right now SE is basically a box of legos which is fun for a while but building ship after ship eventually gets old when you realize there is no reason to build them and nothing to do with them once built.

It's still in early access, which means that there is still more that the developer(s) need(s) to add to the game, polish, etc. I'm sure that it will greatly improve in time.

Well... There's a ton of known issues that have been around for over a year that have gone unfixed. Updates (supposedly) break more than they fix.

That said, I do have more hours on Space Engineers than any other game, still play it, and do not regret purchasing it at all(that it was on sale is a plus ). I also do not see a great many of the issues that others report. Also note half that the Steam community for this game seems pretty toxic. I've seen one guy starting petitions to force Keen to give him a refund solely because he found an easter egg and felt that was such a broken promise(KSH said they wouldn't do anything "decorative") that he felt cheated.

Of course, I know this. I was advising you on the current state of the game, not the possible future. I'm sure at some point they will have some or most of these issues fixed.

[LordPorkins]

Yah, i dont understand people like that. Wasn't the easter egg something extremely tiny too? It was a ship shaped like a shark. is this funny, and kinda cool to find? yes. But considering that other people have made giant warships in the shape of dongs it isn't that odd.
