VY Canis Majoris Twitch Stream

Postby Mattwood » Sat Sep 12, 2015 10:02 pm

I'll be dropping in at VY Canis Majoris soon, as of right now i'm 5 jumps out.

If anyone wants to jump on the stream and have a look then the link is http://www.twitch.tv/matthaswood

Just a note, stream may be choppy and im not broadcasting sound.

I wont be taking requests to fly into Canis. ;)

don't get to close to it, being 5000ls out may look harmless and flying close appears fine until your temp starts going up, I lost my ship there when I first visited it.

Thanks for the heads up here + in game, for some reason it is really tempting to get as close as possible to it. Not sure if you caught it on the stream but i was pretty close towards the end, but i got a few screenshots that i'll post soon.

I missed the end bit, but it is very tempting to get close to Canis M just to see how big it is, I got close then saw I was starting to heat up, I don't know how far away I got from it before I blew up but my ship temp had hit 250c.

I popped in to say hi, but honestly, between the low quality stream, no sound, and chat locked to only danish speakers, I only stayed for a minute or 2.

Ha, i pretty much only meant to stream for a friend i was showing Canis M, the laptop can't handle streaming another over potato quality. Also had no idea chat was locked to be honest, had some trouble with Twitch not letting me change the Title/Game at first, did set it to english aswell but i guess that didn't save!
