M.A.S.S. Builder 3rd Anniversary AMA (Part 1)

I think I got my dates mixed up. I thought the AMA forms were closing on the 16th rather than the 9th, so I didn’t get my question in in time. Just as well since whether or not viewing previous cutscenes isn’t all that important. That said, I’ll ask again if I get the chance. For now …

Too Hot

It was a painfully unproductive day, but with the AC being out and it being over 100f outside, staying alive was the name of the game.

We’ll see how things pan out tomorrow.

First Runs 11.8

I wound up skipping clan battles today, for a variety of reasons, but I did get to test out the updated operations this afternoon. Finally. Finally, I’ve got some incentive to play the game outside of clan battles. I even got a few replays worth recording toward the end of 11.8. There isn’t much else to update yet since the Space Engineer’s projects aren’t done yet–haven’t even been touched today, actually.

Last Run 11.7

I had one last run in the old style of operations in Maya earlier today. They’re taking away the 5 star format starting tomorrow so I wanted to get one last run in. It went well enough so I recorded it afterward, too.

I won’t spend too much time on it tomorrow but I definitely want to do a few operations after 11.8 goes live. After that I’ll be focusing on writing and trying to get more material for a Hipper preview.

All Recorded

Well, it took about four hours and I did some random house work, reading, and gacha games while I waited, but all the replays I wanted saved from WoWs 11.7 are recorded in glorious, hard drive bulging, multi gigabyte high definition.

Glad that’s over with. The update should be live on Wednesday, and then I’ll finally have some incentive to play the game that isn’t Clan Battles related. Kind of strange to think about these days. I won’t be playing too much, though. Maybe just a couple of operations a day. I’ve got too many things I want and need to work on to spend extra hours on it.

Clan Battles 9/4

That went exceptionally well. We not only had an 8/4 win/loss ratio, we had two separate divs running a couple of hours in. I had to call for the WPA div, so I’m surprised we won as often as we did. We had some very close matches though, with everyone pulling a win out of their hat at least once. Very fun, even though it was pretty stressful at points.

I was maining the Baltimore for the most part.

The update’s right around the corner so tomorrow I’m going to be recording all the replays I’ve gotten since 11.7 went live. Including operations that’s twenty replays, so it’ll take about four hours to record them all. After that I’m going to have to look into trimming down the fat in my storage folders because all these HD recordings take up a huge amount of harddrive space.

M.A.S.S. Builder: Multiplayer Mode OST Preview

This was a pleasant surprise. I wasn’t expecting any news on the OST until well after 0.9.0 released.

Overall I think they’re pretty good. They certainly fit the tone and atmosphere of the game.
