Title: Take On Mars
Post by: Jarhead0331 on November 03, 2015, 09:48:27 PM
I bought into this sim pretty early on during early access and found it hopelessly boring and rough around the edges.  I deleted it eventually and never really gave it a second thought. I recently checked up on it and was surprised to see that it seemed to have really expanded in terms of content and stability. I did not expect to see operations in both orbit and on the surface of the moon.  I reinstalled and am really impressed with what Bohemia has accomplished over time. The game has really matured and is just another testament to Bohemia as a developer that stands by its products.

Anyway, I look forward to exploring this title further.

In the meantime, here are some screenshots from a couple of scenarios I messing around with.

Yes, there has definitely been tremendous progress. Absolutely worth a look. Its sort of like KSP with a much more authentic look and feel.

Those microphone-like thingies at the bottom sides of those screenies look suspiciously phallic.

Why is this surprising to you when considering that the game models NASA technology? You do know that NASA stands for the "National Anal Sex Administration".

Just seems like the bulky suits would get in the way.

Was about to post something meaningful, but having read the last few posts I guess I'll just pretend I wasn't here and leave you guys to it...

I was still figuring out the gravity on the surface of the moon, and apparently jumped from just a little too high of an elevation. It damaged the suit, injured my legs and raised my heart rate and respiration.
