Yes, Samuraiko has been at it once more, a Rikti dropship challenge.
Enjoy

Blooming EPIC.
Wish that I could take part in something like that...and that my graphics were that good. Is that Full Settings with a really fast engine? It looked so smooth! Jeese...

Isn't it about time WE did something like this? It'd be EPIC!

Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Defiant took down a dropship on Sunday, thanks to Omega MCX organising it

"Well, they found my diary today.
They were appropriately appalled
at the discovery of the eight victims
They're now putting it all together.
Women wrapped in silk
with one leg missing
Eight legs, one body, silk,
spider, brilliant!"

They've tried on several servers, haven't they?

It was great fun
Edit We almost got one on the Saturday on Villains
Defiant FTW

Was as much fun if not more that the Robot Rampages that Omega MCX has also been so kind to oranise and equally epic

And wasnt it two of the things?

And another awesome video well done Samuraiko.

Kneeling girls! Statues driving cars! What's going on? Ten years ago a man was arrested in the area for driving statues around in a car. Was it him?

The second one was like an athlete doing a lap of honour, it was just a celebration

It looks close enough to full settings. YouTube doesn't give enough detail to see if all the little details are shoved to maximum. I can run it like that no problem, the only annoyance is it makes you want to see graphical updates on the Hero zones.

Grass is a flat texture, so it looks bloody terrible. What I'd like is if they added...well...grass. Slower machines could just turn it right off to look like it is now, but for me it would make the game look SO much better when outside.

Great video, the music made watching it better

That was phenomenal.

It really shows what this game is possible of achieving if enough people put the effort in to make something like that happen rather than stick to their own wee game (something I am often guilty of).

 

Posted

I didn't know thats possible Next time when riktis come, I want to take down a dropship! Are you really done it on Defiant?

Relly nice video.

Yup we took out two on Defiant on the one Omega MCX organised. It was really cool :P

Edit: It was in Atlas when we did it.

Defiant is the happening server

There was something like this on US Test just before Invasion went live, but the devs were there too, so their ubaleet haxored power sets probbly makes taking down the ships then less spectacular than now when just the normal players did it

The late night and beered up Ted is somewhat upset to see so many people (including regular forum goers) say how they would like to be part of something epic and fun like this, despite the fact that people like (and especially) Omega MCX take the time and effort to plan epic fun tasks like Rikti Rage and Robot Ramapge with at least a fortnights notice on this and other supergroups forums.

I don't lurk about (or post) on the main forums so much (until recent joblessness) but when I do have a butchers I at least have a look to see if someone has something epic planned on the (in my case) Defiant forums and try to say ill lend a body to whatever is going on.

As much as I'd like to be playing a game where upon logging in I would get an invitation to take down a dropship or a glut of robots in kings row, I appreciate I'm playing one with a relatively small population which seems to be playing second fiddle to the EPIC antics of our colonial cousins in the Americas even from when I first started (way back in april 2005)

*We do have epic evenings and *we do fight over 10 Kronos Titans in kings row then go on to slay as many GMS as we can find followed by an "outnumbered but never outgunned" attack on Hami and we do advertise the fact not only on the forums but on the major chat channels and major Supergroups Forums. *we do arrange a "pointless" attack on the Ritki dropships just to see if we can drop one and people are even as we speak planning something pointlessly fun and no doubt epic to mess about with over Christmas, just because we can..

I for one will be taking the time to join in and not lamenting the fact that "nothing happens" over here after the fact.

p.s. Im not trying to have a go at anyone I'm just upset that so many people can become jealous of the americans when we can do cool fun stuff like this too if only people put the same effort into searching for fun events as they do to bickering and being grumpy

You don't need a big community to do epic Stuff. You need enough willing people to do them and someone to organize the epic event.

You doing good on that Defiant.

Ps. Great video btw. If you havent done so. Watch em all.
