The Kins posted:It's worth taking a moment, when watching this, and remembering that this is 3+ years and $100 million into development. Maybe in another two years they can get it into a state where it can be comfortably released on Steam Early Access! Correction 4yrs (they didn't throw out the 1yr work prior, and I have it on good authority they paid themselves for that work, right off the bat) + $100m + over 500 (at its peak) people + croberts = pre-Alpha-Alpha (for a game coming in 2016)

D_Smart posted:They're not out yet. You are reading the change log for the upcoming major build. That's why there are XX chars in the build number and release date. I do this in order to give the heads up of what we're working on and coming next. Aircraft unlocks is the most anticipated feature and I expect to have it out this month. Ah ok, that makes sense. Just a heads-up, for the wing-suit I didn't see any indication of my current fuel level, I noticed it was slowly charging up over time, but it would be handy to know in advance how long of a flight time I should expect to get out of it.

I'm bother by Mark Hamill's character's nickname. Why not just call him "The Vet", then at least some FNG could ask if its because he likes animals or some poo poo. Maybe have other squad members play along and create an elaborate backstory for an "Ah, gotcha!" moment? Chris

The wingsuit doesn't use fuel. And since you have no control over the descent, you're alive for as long as you're airborne

Cruisin' to Comm Array 126. The 66,000 KM and 19.5 hour story. quote:SC Alpha 2.0H(ype). This was using the solo play since I don't think I would stay connected for 19+ hours anyways.

I got into the alpha. Here is a video of one of my first times playing, note I have no idea what's going on nor have I ever played this game before. I managed to get onto some random guys ship and then I died alone in a remote part of space. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFxYe7d5_ds

You pick it up in a supply depot together with a bunch of weapons on Heatwave and it allows you to fly (using "c" or "v", can't recall). It definitely had some sort of recharging fuel mechanic!

I think the big thing with 2016 will be SQ42 and whether or not it is a success. No co-op and no multiplayer doesn't sound like an attractive purchase for 59.99. I pick up all my single player games years after release for <= 10 bux and it works out well. I also think there is a serious chance of an official Squadron 42 boycott effort due to CIG's shady business practices. It deserves its own website. What I'm wondering about is the technical feasibility of a Squadron 42 release in 2016. Will they be using the same tech underlying the PU 2.0 or will it be its own separate build? Some people have indicated that by taking the PU 2.0 offline things get much more stable. Is it easy for them to just disable the online components to release a relatively stable single player experience? Also, can anyone speak to the structure of their netcode and whether it is more, less, or equally vulnerable to hacking/cheating than other prominent franchises? Anti-hacking measures are less important in games like WoW or Eve but hacks can really be gamebreakers in twitch-based play. EDIT: Also someone should notify Obama about what's happening with Star Citizen via a "We the People" petition at https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/

D_Smart posted:It's not a bug. Those are all valid camera views but with different camera types. In fact, F9 and F10 have multiple views which you can cycle through while pressing the keys. See p5 of the game keys. A bridge view capital ship space sim is actually the kind of game I'm dreaming about since years, but no one got it right so far and only a few even made something remotely close. Derek, have you followed the guys who wanted to make Flagship ? What are your thoughts on that ? Their demo vid looked really interesting, but for whatever reason the Kickstarter failed badly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVr98bTzxH8

Yeah, I've been following that one, but not too closely though. It looks interesting, but I don't think it's going to capture the essence of what it really means to command a capital ship. Into The Stars also tried it, but completely blew it.
