XK posted:I assumed their usage of "bandwidth" was a really tortured way of referring to production capacity. Really, though, even if metal cards might be a little harder to produce than plastic credit cards, I'm pretty sure any competent manufacturer's production run on silk screened metal sheets is limited only by the money the customer is paying. Even if it were etched, embossed, and pad printed, you could easily produce millions with people paying $10 a piece. Those amex black carbon fiber cards cant be cheap but why would cig do anything but cheap out at every step.

ah, so you were doing LTI laundering for others. Their own records would show what you received and returned. So they are trying to say that you gifted away more than you actually spent and thus you somehow are in negative money spent? Good news if you live in a western style democracy because there will be a consumer/criminal law that fucks them in the rear end. In the UK we have the citizens advice bureau for free legal advice on minor/consumer matters, if you have an equivalent I suggest you give them a call. ....................................................................................................

OhDearGodNo posted:Great, now I'm going to have to put effort into a post. Just to save some time, my source for the GTA V information was here: http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2013/sep/07/grand-theft-auto-dan-houser and http://www.develop-online.net/studio-profile/inside-rockstar-north-part-1-the-vision/0183989 The latter: "For GTA V, that discussion started as GTA IV was wrapping up – almost five years ago – although the latest game has been in full production for just three years." Similar, though longer for Fallout 4: "The development spanned seven years, delivering successes, failures, and unexpected detours like porting Skyrim to the Xbox One (keep reading). Just 25 days before Fallout 4 releases, the creators sound off on the lengthy development process" source: http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2015/11/06/the-making-of-fallout-4.aspx?PostPageIndex=1 The first two years for FO4 were mostly preproduction (artwork) and setting their target, location research and technology research, like deciding to switch to a deferred renderer. Then full production slowly ramped up. One thing to note is that Bethesda's RPG team is significantly smaller than CIG. I recall the article mentioning they've stuck with a team size of around 100, compared to Rockstar's size of over 1,000. That's what I based my statement on, I just didn't link the GTAV blogs to keep the size down.

Jst0rm posted:I dont understand any of that however cant you look at your cc statement and see how much you paid in and small claims them for that minus the gift stuff you bought? We're talking payments made over a 3 year span. I didn't do this all at once. However, I am not that worried about receiving the full $700+ back as I made more than I spent on Reddit. I just want the amount that's still on the account back, which is right at what they really do owe me.

spacetoaster posted:Laser etched metal business cards. You can get a little over a thousand for $1.70. That's $1.70 per card, and they're 0.01 inch thick vs. standard card thickness of 0.03. Flimsy as poo poo. Also, their width and height dimensions are both about 1/8 inch out from standard card dimensions, so they'd be kind of awkward if you were trying to role-play it as a real ID card.

Sappo569 posted:Just a reminder I honestly entirely doubt that SC will launch in 2016. I could see some part 1 of SQ42, but I don't think it has a chance of a 2016 launch. I also suspect they're going to have to cut down on the diddling with the ships (the amount of iterations of design work they do). Having a production bottleneck that slow (large ships take 3-6 months) is bad when you are concerned about ongoing income. As an odd coincidence: a battleship in World of Warships takes six months from selection to release in game.

Eonwe posted:Honestly, I wouldn't say the combat is great. Its plays like Diablo II in some ways. The only reason I recommend it is because its full loot and even for a gaming community the people are incredibly thin skinned. Did they change the territory pvp from 5v5 arena to open world sandbox pvp?

Sappo569 posted:World Of Warships, a game you can play, while waiting for more ships to be added A good one too! Just the right amount of grind so that you can gently caress around without needing to invest money. I kinda stopped for a little while at Tier VII (gently caress the Nagato), to wait for another country to be added. American BBs, the less said the better.

I love those games (World of Tanks) etc, have managed quite a few hours of entertainment out of them and never paid a dime But the ability is there if you want to spend $5-10 here and there you're free to, not forced to like some OTHER games
