I was too focused on taking pictures and actually being able to do the maneuver, so no, I didn't actually roll it. I've thought about making the cinematic swoosh it does towards the camera with asteroids,but haven't yet.

 

hothie, despite giving all the internet fans of this game all the fun of vicariously playing with and knowing about the Falcon, this offense is intoleable. It pains me to say this to such an otherwise fantastic member of this fan community, but as punishment, I am going to have to confiscate the Falcon from you. It can't be helped. I will PM you my address.

With sorrow,

Be Seeing You.

I don't think your Jedi Mind Trick is going to work.

I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, nor violence to anyone, but they've always worked for me.

I'll be sure to keep it hidden in my smuggling compartments when you come here to confiscate it. ;)

Gentlemen, please! There are alternatives to fighting.

I had it in my hands. I got to play with it… to examine it closely… to drool over it - although my drool did not land directly on it, I think it hit the cat…

SRSLY Thanks to hothie for the generosity of allowing a couple of newbies to experience the thrill of the Falcon in action. We had a great time and met some very cool people. I hope we can repay the kindness sometime.

Cheers!

Woah. Just got chills. Sure, my imagination may be playing tricks, but it looks like it to me!

Some people play to win. I play because it's one of the few ways to fly an X-wing here on Earth!

Awesome fun!

Not to nitpick, and I know it didn't make a difference, but … you said that you shot your assault missiles, but looking at the associated image no one is in the Falcon's front arc.

Secondary weapons still require a front arc to shoot. The turret is only for the primary weapon.

You're right. We later realized that we played it wrong. Good catch.
