The idea that they invited press to their offices and had nothing to show them for SQ42 is really funny to me

Raticus79 posted:So they did limit quantity on the Phoenix sale after all (5000). Can't CCU to it, so no way to get LTI on these ones. People have to buy the full ship and it comes with 3 year insurance. Haha $350 x 5000 = 1.75 million that should help. Will people fall for it though? Another limited number sale gimmick, with no upgrades packs like last time or ccu.  Yes, yes, buy them all or you'll have to buy this one.  (VAT at 20%, before you ask me about price)

With the 10 hours of dialogue, they've said it's lots of potential conversations you can have with crewmates etc. You can move around and/or leave the conversation at any point if you like. Cutscenes would be too simple have you guys learned nothing.

"To that point, the Constellation Phoenix has proven so popular that RSI produces only a select number every sales season, a tactic that has done well to preserve it’s high demand and resale value year after year. For 2945, Roberts Space Industries is proud to release another 5000 hulls, matching it’s generous rollout from the year before. This year however, in order to maintain a finite and limited stock, Cross-Chassis Upgrade to the Phoenix will not be enabled. This ship will remain on sale throughout the weekend, ending either when time runs out, or the limited stock is exhausted." https://robertsspaceindustries.com/comm-link/transmission/15079-AnniVERSEary-Sale-Transporters Very generous indeed!

All the doubters can now sit down and be silenced! They are delivering product and in high quantities. I will invest in this company.

 Bootcha and I made Thanksgiving turkey cupcakes. They had candy eyes and paper feather tails and did NOT look as cute as they did on the package. The candy eyeballs in particular alarmed me. me [noticing the conspicuous discrepancy in pupil sizes]: "What the hell's wrong with that one?!" Bootcha: "That one . . . is not on the placebo." Happy loving Thanksgiving.

alphabettitouretti posted:I know dead tree press is mostly irrelevant now but it's disappointing that a title with a pedigree like PC Gamer didn't apply a little more actual journalism. Taking the time to visit a studio and not seeing the game in action is horseshit. Not questioning that in the article is worse. I've done studio visits and never once did I go without seeing something of the game in action, even if it was the devs controlling it. Plenty of devs will happily show off stuff even if it's really rough. I saw a Gothic or Risen title once when it was really early in development and that was just a single tiny area they'd mocked up for demos and they still let us get hands on with it. They had nothing to show. Remember, they didn't show ANY gameplay of SQ42 at gamescom, CitizenCon or the anniversary livestream. All we've seen thus far are that walkthrough. That's it.

XK posted:This is something I've been thinking about for a little bit, and I would appreciate Derek throwing in his experience with it. 64 bit floats vs 64 bit integers should have the same precision, as they have the same number of bits, but floats take more processor cycles for the cpu to calculate. I've read all the Intel architecture and software design manuals front to back. It was a few years ago, so my memory is a little hazy, but the extended precision floats are actually 80 bit, then there are 128 bit operations with 8 registers available for integer operations. I do not have any where near enough experience to make any definitive statements on how these different capabilities would apply to a space sim game, but I would be interested in Derek giving any of his insight. Stuff like, could a huge universe be simulated with 128 bit integer operations as effectively as 64(80) bit float operations? I have to run, but will tackle this later.

"I know it's pretty baby, but I didn't take it out for air." illectro posted:Space fighters basically didn't exist in any mainstream science-fiction until Star Wars, Star Wars of course was trying to be a World War II movie set in space. George Lucas famously spliced in gun camera footage from World War II so the FX artists would get an idea of what should be doing. It continues to amaze me how Wing Commander was literally WW2 in space, CR flat out explained how the lore and gameplay for WC was inspired by it, the opening trailer features ships moving around and being chased like a WW2 dogfight, and yet the clueless fuckwits act shocked that anyone might have expected Star Citizen to have a similar feel of flight. Instead we get... well whatever the gently caress flight in AC is supposed to be. Space FPS or something, I don't know. AP posted:
