I'll try to tune in, it's not like i have anything better to do a la sleeping.

[Tarogato]

lol, this is such early notice for a light hearted stream that by the time it rolls around I will probably have forgotten about it. I was hoping it was going on right now. =3

Thank you for this announcement ISN - I was literally wondering if there was a way we could subscribe to the Community Page so I don't have to check a hundred times a day, but I suppose if I'm here anyway...

For those newbies or who have never tuned in, this stream will be excellence. Guaranteed. Mark said he was pre-recording his work so it could play while he was monitoring chat instead of being distracted during his creative process. I'm ultra-pumped. #artgeek

BW, I know a few pilots who have used our rss to make it a live feed that pops up in Discord. If you have a discord channel, you can set it up using the link below so it gives you notifications.

Hold on I'm gonna get BanditB17 in here to tell you how he did it!

You can use any RSS viewer to subscribe to:
https://static.mwome...unity/top10.rss for the community page and
http://static.mwomer...s/all/top10.rss for the home page

As for adding these RSS feeds to discord, you could look for an existing bot or set up a webhook in a channel to use ifttt.com to automatically post RSS items into a text channel. I can elaborate further if anyone is interested. This is what it looks like for me currently:

Thanks a bunch Tina and Bandit! For me personally, I have a TracFone so I access Discord and sites from my PC (not my phone) - it's just as easy to check the Community Page through navigation a hundred times a day as it is to pull up Discord, but I'll still do this just to be hip and trendy.

There are a bunch of RSS reader programs for Chrome or even Windows if you wanted to go that route.

Which do you recommend for Chrome? Asking here only because others may have the same question.

Need one of these for the Assassin.... (or was there one that I missed?)

Assassin is old news, we're already done with that - we only look forward!
Javelin > Assassin!
Why have 4 missiles is torsos with laser beam arms when you can have 4 missile torsos and NO lasers?! Arms are superfluous!

You apparently missed it. I talked through the highpoly modelling for the arm mounted lasers in the second and 3rd hardpoints.

You'd remember - I asked for arm-mounted bayonets, like, ten times. #squeakywheel

so you are the modeler for it? Good news!

[Gas Guzzler]

I want to see more shots of the Supernova. That thing is a sexy beast.

[BWS2K]

Yeah, I won't be able to tune in - but have fun all!

[Azmaat]

Nice \o/
On 12 minute u trying to fit your geo to existing sketch - is there any chance we ll get new Griffin or Enforcer models? Right now they are slightly different.

[BWS2K]

Just had the chance to watch the recording. Despite many missed opportunities for Mist Lynx Hype, I have, after thorough review, decoded no less than ELEVEN very clear hints about the future of Faction Play from this video. Don't worry - I won't tell anyone. Since you seem to be interested in animation suggestions, I want the MLX to be re-animated that every time I score a Kill I involuntarily blast up through the skybox, leaving just a sparkle in the distance, as homage to the Mist Lynx's true inspiration: Team Rocket. I thoroughly enjoyed the MLX cameo at the 52:15 mark but your comment about antennae not being in the hitboxes is confusing - in Fallout's VATS I can target antennae and it confuses the ants. Since all games are like all other games, why can't you implement something like that?

In conclusion, I'm really looking forward to the Star of Death. Hopefully it will be available in QuickPlay and not just some new toy for Faction Play.

Thanks for the stream!
