if I were a star citizen missionary I would try to repress anything related to that holiday livestream. You have to weigh 2 minutes of a pretty looking touched-up trailer for a feature that has no foreseeable release versus 19 minutes of the games visionary getting annihilated by his own product. The pros don't outweigh the cons.

TTerrible posted:Guys whole you're here, what's your take on CRoberts being unable to play the game, being visibly disgusted with it and only now seeing the chat interface? It's amazing on so many levels. It vindicates my argument for emphasizing quality of life issues when doing crowdsourced testing. If Chris can't go fifteen minutes without being miserable how can he expect the average player to want to do it? It makes me wonder where most of Chris's efforts go. Is he still focused on directing and the script? When was the last time he had sat down and actually played the game? It was yet another condemnation of CIG's method of handling livestreams. They clearly don't care. Entire dissertations could be written about that little cock up.

Star Citizen backers are completely normal people. They all sit on a dead-center line down the middle of the bell curve. If you're not down with the 'verse, you must be a very weird outlier.

Star citizens killed star citizen tho, just as much as CR CR is an just some ideas guy who got handed a lot of money, the backers are huge sycophants who defend everything he does If they wanted a real game instead of a wish fulfillment simulator they'd try to hold him accountable or raise a shitstorm hurting pledges

Sounds like the new spaceship is working as intended:quote:The Freelancer is virtually unplayable. You can't get in the door, have to go through the cargo bay. Anyone can open your cargo bay door at any time. The turret doesn't fire. Your main guns fire once, then break, but the sound repeats infinitely until you kill yourself and respawn the ship. You red/black out by engaging cruise while going in a straight line. Quantum does work. The ship is beautiful, but M3a guns spawn in the middle of the ship spinning wildly. The copilot station seems intermittant. Sometimes your view is completely obstructed when you try to fly the ship, and if you get up while flying you can't get back in any seat. The viewscreen, when the ship is working, is very restrictive but functional for a light freighter. It is also currently invincible and cannot deal damage to other ships. Goty

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:It's amazing on so many levels. I will never for the life of me understand why they didn't release everything as soon as they could, even if the ships were little more than boxes and the planets flat circles, but actually have seamless travel, EVA, landings, missions, and multicrew and then refine everything upwards so we could have a game to actually play with missions and story lines and things to do, and roles to play. Instead, they did the ONE THING you never do: YOU NEVER RELEASE FINAL QUALITY UNTIL EVERYTHING IS IN A FINAL OR SEMI FINAL STATE and tested up the wazoo. If you are designing a prototype, you never go finished quality up front. You don't spend $5000 on an artist to make your board game artwork, cards, heroes, etc etc and then sit down to play it for the first time.... you'll change it 25 times because you haven't actually played the game or refined ANYTHING. Then, you will call the artist and pay him another $5000 to fix everything and then run back for more play testing, I guess? WHY? I am still smh so hard. This is $^#!$%#!$ exactly what they did, they are trying to release finished products, assets, locations, and planets into an untested buggy prototype. They have wasted years on refining ships over and over. Of course they have, they didn't playtest the stupid thing and focused on artwork. How many people have written down rules for a game that sounds fun and then played a few rounds and found out it had serious issue, imbalances, and broken rules (or rules you could use to break the game). And you come at me with final artwork on your crap game and expect that to distract me from your shallow broken game? Ludicrous. You grab some pencils and paper and spend an hour making a roughed out version with little to zero artwork. You grab game pieces from other games, you cobble it together and playtest the heck out of it with as many people as you can until it's FUN. Then, ramp it up, print some nicer cards with artwork, beautify it, go nuts. Refine rules and refine artwork more and once it's solid, hire your artists to make it final quality. And the finished game will still have bugs to work out, but you can take care of that in future reprints if needed... Absolutely, unrefined insanity. CIG is building a 100 million dollar jet fighter and THEN taking it out back to see if it can actually fly. What utter nonsense, hubris, and... ugh, just the mental gymnastics they must have gone through in the last 3 years to justify any of these actions. This is why, if any of you SC backers are listening, this will fail, it has no chance, unless they dump the fidelity and start working on the game, rules, fitting the million pieces together, and the cohesion of the dozens of promises FIRST AND FOREMOST and drop the inane JPEG polishers and pixel artists. Stop working on anything related to beautify SC, just stop. Focus 100% on fixing the issues and adding in the content, ugly and FUNCTIONAL. They will run out of blubber years before the actual game is finished if they don't stop right now and refocus on the important stuff. Everyone is talking about how pretty it is, NO one is talking about how deep, strategic, or engaging it is. Crobberts hated it so much, and even complained about being bored, disliking the design of certain parts, etc etc. What happens if you spend million making a game look pretty without playing it to make sure it's fun, functional, and interesting?

"Any other game developer would have thrown several hundred thousand dollars (or more of OUR money) into a carefully scripted and orchestrated 'perfect presentation'" Estimated costs of competent play demo: Getting a dude to make sure your joystick is plugged in 10 minutes before a presentation: $100,000 Get that same guy to also turn on V-sync: $150,000 Create a back-up plan if the game/computer crashes: $200,000 Have a guy coach Chris Roberts through an hour of his own game so he doesn't look like a loving moron: $300,000 it's probably just dumb hyperbole, but i really like to think that dangerous levels of CIG exposure have totally compromised Citizens' ability to evaluate costs or value. poo poo wait

It's certainly not X-4 but it's got more gameplay in it than Star Citizen right now. People might believe you and may buy it. Do you really want that on you this close to Christmas?

Bait and Swatch posted:Sounds like the new spaceship is working as intended: Star Citizen is able to mobilize the optical and dimensional static viewpoint which keeps us imprisoned in our [three-dimensional] illusions. Thus it became possible tp perceive the entire prism of the world instead of just one facet at a time. In this connection Star Citizen is one of the strongest manifestations of the fourth dimension, transposed onto the subject.. ..Star Citizen is ‘yes-no, a bird on four legs, a ladder without steps, a square without angels. Star Citizen possesses as many positives as negatives. To think that Star Citizen simply means destruction is to misunderstand life, of which Star Citizen is the expression.
