    Hogwash! It’s impossible for Berlin to have any traffic, all the cars are on the Autobahn, and they always go fast. Always. Nobody ever goes slow on the Autobahn. It’s actually illegal to go slow in Germany. You can cruise through Berlin at 200 MPH (but never slower than 100 MPH, that’s illegal) anytime of day thanks to the Autobahn dramatic reverb





  • Nah, I hate group chats, it just makes my phone constantly going going off and it’s never important. Especially when there’s like multiple differ group chats, with the same people in it, +/- like 1 or 2 people, and nobody remembers which one has or doesn’t have the person they’re trying to talk to. It’s just annoying.

    They have their uses, for coordinating plans for a specific event, but outside that I hate them.






  • I haven’t played X4, but I’ve played a lot of elite dangerous, and some of the problems you describe happened to me in ED as well. And like X4, ED did not explain it at all. I had to learn it from watching videos about the game, and other discussions in other forums. So maybe there are similarities in what I experienced

    The speed limiting was due to being within close proximity to planets and stars who’s gravitational field prevents you from accelleratin quickly. If you are in open space, you accelerate very quickly, and can go faster than if you are close to something large. So maybe it has something to do with where you are.

    I’ve had boost disabled randomly for me and I didn’t know why, but eventually I learned it was because I had been deploying my cargo scoop by accident and not realizing it before I got blown up. Maybe there is a ship module or function you are accidentally toggling that disables it?

    That’s an annoying aspect of these space sim games, but one I’ve come to appreciate as learning the complex intricacies of flying a spaceship feels rewarding in its own right. Like being able to describe what every little button and switch does in an airplane, or a recoding stuido’s sound board. It makes you feel like you’re really mastering a skill, instead of just playing a game.
