Wafflz posted:Why does a game that doesn't exist do 400 tickets a day? Even if everyone who played AC submitted a ticket every day it wouldn't add up to that. The game is having pictures in your hangar on a website and because they constantly did this fake limited time only ship sale stuff to get panic buying, they had to sort out lots of issues afterwards, such as "I couldn't afford to give you $250 last week, can I give it to you now?", "Sure", "you're the best game support ever".

So this begs the question: What do you think of Elite: Dangerous? I played Frontier and liked it a lot. I love E:D. I honestly felt like BC 3000 was a spiritual successor to First Encounters (Elite 3)

What is the purpose of carrier ships in this fake game? Do small craft have reduced range? Do they spawn ships if you die?

Originally it was because small ships lack jump drives of their own to jump between star systems. But large ships require some kind of Vespene Gas or some poo poo to jump systems themselves, or something. gently caress if I know, they've changed it like 50000 times.

So wait, they are comparing SQ42 to Ryse...Ryse which had like what, six different characters (identical enemies over and over)? ...and they are touting having 15 characters, each of which takes about a year to complete...am I reading this right? ...so...how long is it going to take them to create all the crew required for SQ42? What about the Persistent Universe, which is supposed to have hundreds of systems full of people? Are all these NPC's going to be crafted to that level of detail, or are important NPC's going to look fancy and generic NPC's are going to look much crappier in comparison? Answer: This game is never coming out.

imperialparadox posted:So wait, they are comparing SQ42 to Ryse...Ryse which had like what, six different characters (identical enemies over and over)? Unless I'm just dumb (I might be) Why wouldn't you create a base model and then allow deep customization by swapping a hundred or so parts, like most MMOs do? Wouldn't this be much easier since you're having to generate (supposedly) like thousands of NPCs for your PU? Wouldn't that be easier? Or are they spending more time on one character than it takes for a real human to birth an actual baby with unique features?

Three-Phase posted:Well, there's a cheetah that may have a significant intellectual disability, and a blue dog... and apparently they bought a $1000 spaceship that doesn't even exist. You have to see the positive side. Buying a $1000 spaceship that doesn't even exist is honestly better than buying $2500 spaceships that also do not exist. Or a 15k+ package chock-full of non-existent spaceships. Sillybones posted:What is the purpose of carrier ships in this fake game? Do small craft have reduced range? Do they spawn ships if you die? Nobody knows! not even the developers! I mean, look at the totally realistic "plans" about "mining" they have. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iroudUFGFM

The mental gymnastics. It's no "That's weird and concerning, but I guess there is a good explanation". Instead we just bend reality until it fits our worldview. (not unlike swedish meatballs)
