Thanks for the vid brother. Don't worry about if other people think you speak too fast. They can speed up the playback speed of the video themselves. You just keep doing what you enjoy, you're good at it!

"Blops for poors" I spit my drink out.

[@salty_maggot]

Hunting for blops would be fitting for next. :P Great vid.

(Paraphrasing Amoni Panala): "We used to call ourselves the Unibomber, but that may have been in poor taste." Me, an insensitive asshole: "I think I'm gonna name my first bomber Ted or Achmed."

At 21:05 you say the bomb keeps going despite there not being gravity in space however there is gravity everywhere in space and the bomb would keep moving because there is very small amounts of air to slow it down and The first law of motion states that an object in motion stays in motion unless acted on by an unbalanced force

[@AmoniPanala]

What a pedantic response that completely missed what I was saying. Yes, the laws of motions are fairly self-explanatory, but what doesn't make sense is why the bomb goes forward *and* down. On Earth, bombs "drop" because gravity is pulling them down. In space, there is nothing to pull them down. Now, technically speaking, in the real universe, space is not a true vacuum and there is gravitational forces at work all over the place, but unless you're near enough to a celestial body or stellar phenomena with significant mass to generate its own gravitational pull, the bomb should keep going forward in the direction the bomber was going when it was released until such a time as the bomb is slowed down through friction contact with something or stopped altogether by impact with another object. The game doesn't simulate this. In New Eden, bombs drop because it's fun and not because makes any sense in physics.

Bombers used to be good when they had cruise launchers. I recently came back and was like WTF, who ruined my favorite playstyle.

[@AmoniPanala]

Can't speak to cruise bombers, but torp bombers are still pretty fun.
