    faster engines but less control.

    So the Bozeman Hyper-Impulse Engines will be an account unlock, awesome. I do wish the holo-emitter and toy rocket were also account unlock as I simply don't have the time to go thru and get those on each and every character. But, I can understand why they aren't.

    I just hope that the event this year has been fixed over the one last year. Kind of annoying to collect all purple/very rare parts and lose to someone who didn't even bother collecting any. Granted, there was no extra reward for finishing higher than others, but it was still annoying.

    What he said. It was super annoying to put all that work in, then lose to someone who did nothing. I really hope it's better this time around.

    Why are you both getting upset over this? There is nothing to win. You're not losing out on anything.

    Looking forward again to this mini anniversary event. The music is the best part.

    Lore blog suggestion: Lieutenant Tardigrade arrives at the event, gets distracted, wanders into the woods, finds a baby turtle, has a "first contact" moment, heads back, and smuggles it aboard ship. Now Lt. Tardi has a pet turtle.

    I'd breathe life into this masterwork but I'm busy with life stuff so...

    For me, it, all too quickly, becomes too much. :/ Not kidding after one listen, I turn the volume to 10 and muddle through with the rest of my Captains.

    I really liked wondering around the landscape after the mission though. It's a real gem. :smiley:

    Why are they rewarding the holo emitter again?

    Because some might have join since the last FC Day.

    I missed last years event. Do you have to do the event each day of the event to unlock? I will be out of town one of those days at state park with no internet access.

    I've been looking where to go and who to hail. Now I notice I'll have to wait for two more days :p

    I don't know why, but I thought it was happening today.

    You'll need to do it four times, the event will run for seven days.

    The Bozeman Hyper Impulse Engines are new right? Not a repeat from last year?

    An event starting on my birthday! Yay! And account unlock? Sweeeeeeet!
    Now a LTS and loving it.
    Just because you spend money on this game, it does not entitle you to be a jerk if things don't go your way.
    I have come to the conclusion that I have a memory like Etch-A-Sketch. I shake my head and forget everything. :D
