Inspired by Gillian Thornhill , I remember an encounter where a High R.E.S. proved to be too much for my greedy sense of judgement to handle. I took on one or two targets to many, but I scraped out of there with single digit hull and around 3 minutes oxygen. I hightailed it as fast as I could, which was limited by gravitational forces around me. I jumped into range of the station and frantically entered the docking procedure. As I lined up I was down to 8 or 9 seconds as I was (TOO SLOWLY) approaching the toaster racks. As an inexperienced pilot, I had never rushed docking before, but I had never seen the oxygen dip so low before and I had no idea what would happen. Would I go into some kind of oxygen depletion for a few more seconds or would the game just blank to a death message text screen and then a rebuy? I didn't want to find out so I thrusted some more, knowing full well, that it was too late and I wasn't going to make it to land. At this point, the ingame audio...

New System Feedback. Everything seems ok. Getting 150 avg fps inside station during take off. Drops to 135 just before entering the slot. As I fly towards the planet it increases up to the 170 mark and as I point to open space it climbs to 195, just under 200. Interestingly at about 12 km, I turned back and did a flyby pass the docking grate and it went upto 205 before dropping back to 170 as I got close to and buzzed the landing/departing ships at the slow. I'm guessing some of the performance increases was that the textures were buffered into the RAM. Currently using the default in game Ultra Setting, Frame rates not limited and using Nvidia Experience overlay to count the frames. Not sure how reliable that is compared to any other method. System spec is I7 6700. CPU seems to be running at around 3800Mhz and the 16GB DDR4 RAM is currently clocked at 3400Mhz. Video is an ASUS Strix 1070. Resolution is 2560x1440 on a LG 34" 21:9 Monitor. Very happy ;)

Upgrade update. Just completed an hour of No Man's Sky at Ultra detail 2560x1440 with no crashes. Bad news is that one of my SSD's failed. The one with Project Cars, Elite Dangerous, Rise of the TombRaider & 3DMark. Probably the 4 things I most wanted to benchmark ;( Lots to download this week. + BattleField4, Star Wars BattleFront & Mirror's Edge. Still, I do have the Guardians 2.2 beta to test with.

I've put about 30 minutes into the Guardians Beta. I must be burnt out, but visiting Farseer I was expecting to use fish for module upgrades, but I guess they took that out. I was hoping to preview / test drive an Anaconda build and get something I can use as an objective to work towards when 2.2 drops. I'm so not interested in most of the new functionality (passenger, ship fighters, etc). I am hoping that the various bugfixes, tweaks and new graphical enhancements rekindle my interest which has been waning due to the RNG BS of 2.1 I'm also hoping that the Alien contact results in a major story swing with huge political impact which again would be something new in terms of campaign missions / alien warfare/ smuggling/ espionage/ alien sneak missions, etc. The avatar editor thing in 2.3 has me literally baffled as to how they can sell that as a feature. By then perhaps other long promised polish to existing functionality might make 2.3 sound more appealing. Maybe I nee...
