It's been years.

Say it isn't so.

Are you really flying a Clipper?

I been wondering for a while how the npc names are generated. What triggered my wondering was a month or so ago I just been surfing the net and had been on the Prison Planet page. A short while later i get interdicted by an npc called Alex Jones. Tin foil hat time haha


Wish I took a screenine but I didnt think of that until after the destroyed me in two shots haha

Those who backed the kickstarter got to select the name of one NPC to be included in the game, once those we added FD put the names through a blender to randomise first/last names and increase the number of original names.

Naw, we laughed about it afterwards.


Seriously though, my dad passed away 35 years ago, and my only issue was that it was way too soon.
I'm 2 years younger than he was at the time and it has me thinking. :|
