You know what would actually be really nice open development? Screenshots/logs of every change they make to their main build through github or whatever they use (minus spoilerish stuff like "Fixed Mark Hamill's death scene"). But, yknow, open development.

How about just a screenshot of JIRA or even a Gantt chart that showed they actually have tasks that leads constructively to a SDLC. Maybe OP can chime in, but i have to think that there has to be more to making a game than the following:

1. Make JPEGS

The early-access caveman survival thing Rust actually does this: They have a public Twitter feed of all their internal commits, and weekly blog posts (NWS for caveman dong) where various team members discuss and show off what they did (or didn't do) that week. I have no interest in the game itself, but they handle open development very well and its fascinating to see how the game slowly evolves and how the team reacts to what does and doesn't work.

My particular Org focuses on bounty hunting and battlefield services, such as salvage, repair and refuelling. I find these utilitarian ships to be some of the best conceived designs. The Reclaimer is one of the ships I'm most excited about.

I watched the first minute of that video and was greatly intrigued by Chris Roberts' thumbs. Is it normal to keep your thumbs locked in that position when gesticulating with your hands (it seems this Chirs Roberts guy is quite into his gesticulation)? Is that some kind of thumb paralysis from too many hours spent being an awesome wing commander? This is a serious post and I would appreciate a serious response tia.

Also holy poo poo does this dude need a script

I haven't watched one in months but it is as if he doesn't even read the questions before making the video. He had no answers to the questions and just mumbled his way through it. It was loving embarrassing and I can't believe anyone would feel confident after watching it.

Durkee's Famous (sandwich & salad) Sauce. Add leftover Thanksgiving turkey and bread and condiments of your choice. It will change your life (and is good on other sandwiches as well).

I dated a woman for 8 years and we ultimately broke up with a lot of pain and suffering and financial loss, but I consider it a win because I found out about Durkee's Famous Sauce from her brother, when I otherwise might not have.

Y'know, I did some research the other day, and found out that some games actually have this thing called "Content" and "being real".

Like Space Engineers, which actually does the whole planets and space single instance thing. And is real.

Edit: Derek-sama-rama, what is your opinion on Space Engineers? They claim to be the first people to do planets properly in space games ever.

As a space games yourself, is this true?

Calling it now. PU will not come out in November. Go ahead Sandi, prove me wrong. Whip your team into a frenzy, crush what little spirit they have left, so that you can be right. I'm sure whatever CIG releases will totally be ready for release.

Space Engineers is a good game. Keen's tenacity in sticking to the Thursday update throughout the years has always impressed. Planets are cool. A resource black hole into which my dreams of having a modern CPU are sucked never to return but a very cool one.

I'm personally holding out for Medieval Engineers. It's looking like the trajectory they want to take that is towards something akin to Dwarf Fortress/a first person Stronghold. Which would be very very neat.

But goddamn does it run like poo poo in multiplayer, things get desynced and lag like crazy.

I'm hoping that the netcode work that they're working on in Space Engineers now that planets have been shoved out the door will be an engine wide refinement. Though Medieval Engineers is probably much more of a beast with all of the calculations it's attempting in order to make your terrible bridge designs fall into ruin.

It always cracked me up when people would make ships from star citizen in space engineers in order to figure out how large they are. If that isn't a point of concern four years in I don't know what is.
