Why would the guy who aches to be a big player in Hollywood build a mocap studio in LA? Why indeed?

They should have a star-reader that measures how much life energy you can use to the citizens. Give them the holy book called White Knights for Christ Roberts and and them join. Use admiral levels on how clear you can become to the true savior.

Funny enough when I went to Citcon in 2014 I went to the Scientology museum, it was just around the block, and served for a quick 20 minute tour of insanity. Before the real show stated. Coincidence?

The offices are designed so that when Chris gives the order to 'liquidate' the company, it will be easy to do so with fire/guns.

Takes some big loving balls to show off the fancy pants office you're building using crowd sourced cash when you've got close to gently caress all in the way of an actual game after 4 years of work. They're a shower of cunts but I like that they've realised they can do basically whatever the gently caress they want at this point and the faithful will lap it up.

Yeah, it makes the most sense. I can imagine it being their end game or safety net when everything else goes to poo poo. If it is their end game and SC is unreleased or falls apart, its some nerve screwing people out of nearly 100 mill and thinking that it wouldn't have consequences. Though there are tons of mocap studios with massive experience already so that might be hard. You would have to spend big money to poach people. Raskolnikov posted:They could sell water Chris spit into and the true believers would buy it up. Sickos. The amount of hero worship is astounding to me. If you follow his past work, it is exactly following a previous pattern (projects completely out of scope, going over time and budget, mismanagement, etc. No bailout in sight, currently). As George Lucas would say, it's like poetry, it rhymes. Dapper Dan fucked around with this message at 23:45 on Nov 5, 2015 |

It's about America's first serial killer and how he built this hosed up hotel with loads of traps and poo poo to kill the guests. Makes you think...

honestly looking at that studio they are building out they could be positioning themselves to do mocap for hire. This would bring in some good revenue. Searching for mocap in santa monica there are not that many. You always want to be west of the 405 and north of ocean park there seems to be 2 (except dirt cheap soundstage - but thats a crap stage rental and I wont include them).

If this is what they are doing and it isn't just SC related solely, then at least they are doing something more than just selling jpegs to generate revenue. But if it is just for SC loving lol.

I am just going to go out on a limb here and speculate that any money they make from the mocap studio will not be going into the game. Why should it? They already have enough money to finish the game, after all!

Special announcement from CIG: Once the new office is complete, we will be performing all our own MOCAP for the most asked for feature.... Space-Intercourse We at CIG realize you probably have never had , nor will ever have sex with a real-live human being. So we are prepared to bring the experience straight to your desktop/console/mobile device Our very own Ben Lesnick will of course be the actor for this interactive experience, as he most closely resembles our core demographic See you in the 'verse!

How can anyone watch that video and claim CIG is being responsible stewards of the money they were gifted by hundreds of thousands of people They're moving to one of the most expensive places to operate in the country and building a massive, modern office with nothing to show for it. They might have a bit more goodwill if they were a studio who is renowned for quality products, but they're building a VALVE-esque building with absolutely nothing to show for it. It's all smoke and mirrors, they're resting on their success before they even succeed. It's like if someone built a big office in Manhattan and claimed to be a hedge fund manager; they go to work, sit at their desk, and claim they are open for business except they haven't done anything to warrant such a facade.

Lesnick: What's that for? Sandi: To help you relax. To make it easier for you to remember. Lesnick: What if I don't want to remember? Sandi: Why would you want that? Lesnick: What if I blew that EMP? What if I did destroy those ships and I am responsible for the deaths of all those men? What if I leaked that inside information to Derek Smart? If I did that, it wouldn't be very safe for me here, would it? [Lesnick stabs her] Lesnick: Of course, it might not be very safe for you, either.

Wow. CIG finally got back to me after more than a month. Apparently the "refund is in the queue and will be processed as soon as we can." Lets see if they can beat the bank's chargeback.

Sandi, to Lesnick: I hate this place. This zoo. This prison. This game studio, whatever you want to call it, I can't stand it any longer. It's the smell, if there is such a thing. I feel saturated by it. I can taste your stink and every time I do, I fear that I've somehow been infected by it.
