There's a long history of ex bank robbers later becoming security consultants. You have to know how you'd steal stuff to be able to spot the weak/exploitable points in a system. Not that I'm saying Ortwin is a bank robber or anything like that, lol the very idea. It's just interesting he's obviously put so much thought into the complete lack of planning or oversight that might cause crowdfunded projects to fail to deliver on their original "campaign concept and convincing marketing materials" and how there's nothing much to stop that currently.

On the surface all that looks to be in Derek, nobody not in the game development industry is going to have an opinion on seamless large world stuff unless they're a loving super nerd, social is whatever you think it is, you can salute a random dude, it's in, all the other stuff you can see on videos. FPS obviously doesn't mean the FSP module as previously advertised, but FPS of a form is in. Can we talk about your next blog, when do you think it will go online?

peter gabriel posted:Lol Sous vide is microwaving poo poo in bags Well, water. No microwaves involved. The problem with cooking with microwaves is they do not penetrate evenly through the different layers of flesh. In addition, most Microwaves (the devices) do not have even cooking beams: http://www.evilmadscientist.com/2011/microwave-oven-diagnostics-with-indian-snack-food/ The nice thing about a sous vide immersion cooker is that the water temperature is held so that the exposure is the exact temperature you're looking for. It tends to make for more even cooking, especially for meat: http://www.seriouseats.com/2015/06/food-lab-complete-guide-to-sous-vide-steak.html

You just keep posting the same thing over and over again without actually saying what features were promised that aren't in 2.0. It's real easy; you should have it in one of those Evernote notebooks. Just post a simple bullet point list of features CIG promised would be in 2.0 that are not currently in 2.0. Don't quote old posts; don't link; just a nice, simple bullet list.

EDIT: To contribute to that topic and offset the other dumbasses, I'm so happy I finally found a brand of eggs that doesn't just scramble itself before I put them on the drat stove. All those runny as poo poo eggs, and they tend to taste poo poo too...but these stay nice and solid and I get 12 of 'em for the price of 10. Felt good when I first saw that.

Iglocska posted:
OK, this is how you clear up an argument. Hey, Octopode, take notes!! Anyway, we are in agreement as to what is in and what isn't in. Though some of them (e.g. encounters, large world) are dubious. Also, note that this 2.0 does not include the full PU, so the "large world" claim is incorrect since 2.0 only includes a small portion of that. We are also in agreement that though described as "in", most of these are in lovely condition, not fully implemented etc. Which goes back to my notation that this 2.0 wasn't ready and that they rushed it out. I look at all the patch notes and I don't see any indication whereby they couldn't have known about over 83% (yeah, I am anal enough to actually work that out btw, because I live and breathe math) of the issues they listed since the first patch. They knew. But they were asked (forced) to release it anyway. Just like I predicted they would. I concede the point that this could be construed as being a "tangible" release; but only if looked at as a whole, and even though they didn't deliver on all promises, nor did they deliver a working product. Note: It's not officially released yet and only about 50K (at least those who can run it, get in etc) have access to it atm. Out of over 700K accounts (notwithstanding the duplicates, freebies who don't have the game etc).

But that was my point all along. They are in, the checkboxes are checked - each time people talk about how 2.0 wasn't all that was promised it undermines any real awareness raising to the real issues plaguing the release. The feature list is fine, it's the quality that's atrocious. As for large world - it's in. It's the exact same size as they promised, so I am not bothered by that. What bothers me that you will either clip through the floor of your ship or plain crash before flying a km away from the starting station.

Why does it matter what was in 2.0 or not? It is an extremely buggy proof of concept that was only pushed out to drive sales and the only sign they have been making any sort of progress after 3-4 years and nearly $100 million dollars.

Blackened salmon is great and is a stove top recipe. Coat your salmon in a mix of salt, paprika, black pepper, chili powder, and white pepper, then cook in olive oil on medium heat. The spices will blacken into a crust on the outside and you are going to mace yourself. But the result is pretty good IMO.

Indeed. But, they still didn't deliver everything they promised. But I'm not going to nitpick that; though I should since it's just bullet point padding to make it look more substantial than it really is. Imagine if after listing all this stuff that's coming in the upcoming major (aircraft!) LOD patch, the testers find out that some of it isn't in. In fact, I list them ahead of time as they are implemented and ready for release so that it serves as an accurate roadmap of what to expect in the next patch. Not to mention the fact that, since July, those extremist White Knight assholes have been littering social media, our Steam product/store pages etc with the usual bullshit about how LOD looks, nobody (that's always hilarious) playing it, is buggy, blah, blah, blah.

Huh, 3 million a month for 3 years is 108 million. The math is suspect. I tried watching one guy stream and the cargo boxes kept bugging out and flying like 679546790854645 miles into space. Was hilarious to watch him try to put a box in a ship to see it fly in a random direction at 840756460 mph, then the game crashed.

The condition of the delivery is an entirely separate argument that's not in dispute.

I don't think it can be made any clearer than asking you to provide a simple list of things that you believe were not included that were promised. I'm not making a point; I'm asking you to clearly and concisely quantify a statement you have made repeatedly, but you seemingly refuse to do so.

Hahahahaha stop calling it a game or a game world or anything other than a poorly put together tech demo Chris Roberts called it a movie last week lmao His mmo can't handle more than 20 players together let alone multi crew. I think the greatest and funniest thing is that they still will never ever be able to get this game to work from a technical stand point just because of how hardware and netcode works. But keep throwing money at them because there are a lot more people laughing at star citizen than are desperately defending it and even if they get jesus on board and space miracles happen goons will join for 40 dollars and ruin everything
