By that account, every new space game that get released push SC further back ? This is getting into "Achilles and the tortoise" kind of delay now..

Sarsapariller posted:Crosshairs ruin immersion. You have iron sights for aiming your future space-gun and that is all you need. Nevermind that you have an alternate reality display that literally pops up information about anyone or anything you look at in real time- another design department did that. Guns are iron-sights only. Maybe Star Citizen wouldn't suffer from it's grey-generic-FPS appearance if it just actively embraced some future technology poo poo. I mean you're right, if everybody is walking around with a VR display, there should be digital crosshairs connected to your gun sights, enemies should be outlined in red and given real-time threat assessment levels, ammo and grenade counts should be in your periphery, and all kinds of customizable UI clutter should be available for you to turn on and off at your preference. Instead, the FPS elements of Star Citizen are really plain, really boring, and exactly the same as any other B-grade forgettable FPS game. It doesn't even look cool enough for merit, it's just nothing but grey textures and badly animated men running around. imperialparadox fucked around with this message at 22:12 on Dec 7, 2015 |

Is there an ingame reason as to why they still use bullets and poo poo vs cool laser guns or plasma whatever? also why do their guns work in space?

G0RF posted:I think this is a reasonable guess, for the following reason. Honestly I think this is accurate. It was weird when ED had buggies and all of a sudden they were in SC as well (that may have been promised but I can't keep track of everything this poo poo pile has promised). It's like 'ED has buggies? gently caress YOU WE HAVE BUGGIES TOO' The real laugh of it is that ED has to do nothing. All they have to do is keep on doing what they are doing since the depth will get there eventually. They are so far ahead of SC it is crazy. Though I would like to see them promise ridiculous poo poo just to see if Roberts tries it. But then again, starting procedural generation when you have barely any of the games systems implimented is just lol. This is going to be a cobbled together mess of half finished systems with less depth than ED and a ten hour garbage movie that no one wants to watch.

I have to defend SC on that one (Oh how it hurt) Gun dont need air to launch a projectile, the oxidizer you need is already in the propellant. As for cool laser gun and plasma, regular guns are a pretty dam efficient tech already. Small, easy to use, low cost, easy to manufacture (look at the guy making a cheap AK from a shovel and some spring) Unless you face serious advances in armor tech or want to go for a specific sci-fi feel, no need to improve on guns (and the code needed for them was probably already built-in with the cry engine).

A lot of people called this. You don't pay massive amounts of cash for a load of autism chariots and happily go along with being hosed with. Of course they want to be left alone to be super awesome. Getting griefed contradicts the fantasy they have crafted for themselves. Not to mention they somehow have to justify to themselves that the stupid amounts of money they spent would equal fun.

They want it to be a lawless space area with dangerous aliens and pirate rape but at the same time want the law to be so oppressive that they mercilessly deal with people who pvp. Ok then.

How will they ensure that you are the certified owner of each ship that you fly? My thinking is that you wait in line in order to show your official Citizens Certificate and a piloting license before taking off in any docked ship. If you do not have both your license and certificate, you need to fill out the appropriate paperwork and snail-mail it to CIG. When CIG finally uploads your certificate into the game world, you can go back to waiting in the docking line. This is the best way to ensure Star Citizen matches the quantifiable fun matrix I've graphed in excel.

Ok then. So they can live out their Malcolm Reynolds fantasies without people ruining their immersion, I would guess. Their sense of entitlement can be measured by the amount of money they put into this ridiculous experience in the first place

If you can hi-jack a ship and steal it, you either gently caress over someone with LTI by preventing them from using their LTI ship while it remains intact OR people with LTI can just distribute ships as they please if they can recover stolen ships, etc, etc. This probably is addressed already I hope.

Nobody is saying this wont be worth a 40$ pop (or maybe even 80$ for a nice ship) once its released. The problem is that there is no way on earth its worth 300,000$ (estimated Goon total mentionned somewhere earlier, not accounting for Bootcha) while its still in the hands of very questionably competent Devs with an undefinite release date.

So apparently someone has figured out how to use both ship and hand weapons in the armistice zone or whatever it is and has been gunning down folks and blowing up their ships as soon a they take off, and an ArmA sperg I know straight up accused the person of being a goon. And then bitched to me about it.
