Can't give you everything all at once...all them DLC need enticing reasons to be bought.

On the flip side...if you want to try and be optimistic...they did mention there are other factions they haven't mentioned yet
Oh did they? I thought they already announced all the at-launch factions. *fingers crossed*

I'm still devastated at the lack of Skaven in the base game... not sure I can get in to it without my beloved rats.

Enemy Within is finally on sale at a good price, and I'm dirt broke. Guess I'll just start a new standard campaign. Should probably beat the game once before 2 comes out....

Hmm, I should probably go back and finally complete a game of XCOM, eh? Anyways, colour me excited!

156
Yay! Succesfully made and used a two piece lander/orbiter combo to send jeb down to get a delicious pail of moon dust to take back in my career game. 400 science for the trip and everything, and I managed to re-dock succsefully and get home!

157
Landing is easy though, you just orbit, but miss.

158
Biking to work today was much less painful! Progress!!!

Also also, there's a tutorial on how to fly to the Mun in the game.

160
Mun continues to be my archnemesis. Regardless of design there seems to be a 50/50 chance the ship just lands helplessly on its side.
On top of this it is LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE to bring enough fuel to land and take off again into a stable orbit, let alone one that makes it back to Kerbin.
I'm still fairly rookie at this, I got around both the fuel and tipping issue by building a super simple lander/returner. The center is a MK1 capsule, service bay with batteries and goo and sciency stuff, 1 of the medium sized basic fuel tanks and a terrier, then attached with connectors to the side, I have 3 small fuel tanks with terriers. I used the small fuel tanks for landing, the extra width they add makes it stable (landing legs seemed optional since they barely touched), and it guarantees you a full fuel tank for your burn home.

Ya, I've been pretty dormant and desk-jobbed for the last 5-6 years, packed on a few pounds, and have Asthma. I just need to get back in to shape, and make sure I remember to pre-dose before any long bike rides. I know that after doing it for a while, I can get to where I want to be, but man is it hard to motivate yourself...

Damn, missed the "feeling old" conversation...
Seriously though, starting to bike again has made me realize just how out of shape I am. It's really hard to motivate myself when my legs start to cramp after about 5 minutes of biking and I'm getting winded so easily. It was so easy when I was younger...

163
I got a bike! I'm biking to work! I'm going to actually be able to keep up with my kids in the near future instead of getting winded by a flight of stairs! Exhausted when I got to work, but totally worth it. This was a lot easier 10 years ago.

Can I start calling Harper Friend Computer now?

you can generally turn off the steam overlay, you can also rebind the screenshot key to whatever you like (including nothing I believe).
