The bulk of their deployment consists of some 20-odd .pak files, most of them 2 GB each. Since their patcher doesn't actually patch anything, just compare local versions to server copies, AND since each release they change nearly every .pak file - net result is a 20GB "patch" each time they make an update.

Timby posted:Roberts has a story credit on III but two other dudes (the same guys who wrote WC4) wrote the actual script of III. I'm not entirely sure that's an argument in his favour. I suppose both actually work well enough and they did get released, but Strike Commander in particular could have used the other side of executive production: “that's an awful lot of work and excessive hardware demands just to get something that's worse in every way than Falcon 3.0 — no-one really cares about animated talking-heads cutscenes” Power_13 posted:There was a deleted scene that revealed Hobbes as you knew him was some sort of personality construct, with the real Kilrathi double-agent in him being awoken by a phrase used by Prince Thrakhath (main Kilrathi bad guy) during a broadcast to your ship. Slightly better, but it really only replaced a stupid character rewrite with a plot hole. If they had him on some subliminal nuke-Blair programming, why not activate that a decade earlier when he was gunning for the emperor's flagship? Oh sure, it's the most convoluted assassination plot ever and someone wants the emperor dead… so why not activate Hobbes the instant that plan succeeds? comatose posted:Does anyone actually understand their logic on PTU build numbering? Ignoring the whole 2.0 thing for an alpha, the patch notes from 2.0x to 2.1 are bug fixes and a new ship which for some reason means they went up a version number and also make you download the whole client again. CRobber doesn't understand software development.

Ignoring the whole 2.0 thing for an alpha, the patch notes from 2.0x to 2.1 are bug fixes and a new ship which for some reason means they went up a version number and also make you download the whole client again. Their logic is to lie for marketing purposes. A real game reaches "Alpha" when all the game systems are completed and functioning, and you can see what the whole game will look like when finished, but when no comprehensive QA and bug sweep have been completed. A real game reaches "Beta" when they believe they have fixed all the bugs - then it will either go to closed or open playtesters for another bugsweep. Then they go "Gold", ship the game, then we all download a 6TB zero-day patch because nobody gives a poo poo about QA any more. SC is not a real game, so they call a minor tech demo an "Alpha", then they stick 2.0 on it because even people's grandparents have learned from lying marketing assholes in every conceivable product sector that "2.0" is the equivalent of a perfected product. You need to download the client every patch because they have gigantic .pak files and their patcher can't properly patch binaries. So you have to fully redownload each 2GB file every time they change something. It's not even a patcher really - it just compares your files to theirs and makes you download every file that doesn't match their published version. Since there are only around 200 files in the entire installation, the bulk of the game is the 25 files in the Data folder (30GB total), you can see how you can suck up internet bandwidth real quick whenever a new .jpeg needs lens flare added.

Why do I love this thread? Because when we are not rolling around in the poop, giggling, and smearing on each others faces. We are actively inviting the mentally ill to swing by and track it around our house.

When this scam goes tits-up, how many of the cultists do you think will lobby the government for regulation, claiming victim status and there there was "no way we could have known this would happen"? If and when that happens, can we use this thread to prove beyond a doubt that sane people the world over were screaming at these people to wake up?

Imagine dropping 2.5K on this hack's POS "space game" while visions of being a space pimp dance in your head. Then log into any version of the PTU. Very few people would not immediately get a feeling in the pit of their stomach that something is horribly wrong. Lashing out here might be the only thing between Gryphon and the long dark.

lol at the people immediately quoting and responding to Gryphon every time he posts to lay down a sick burn. Do you not realize it's the negative attention skinner box? He makes a post, people quote and embarrassingly fumble insults at him, he reads the mean words and claps his hands together while smiling It's a circle of dumb. bad flaming against a stupider person who wants attention and probably shows other people afterward like "lol look at those goony goons they're such DSmart-asses aren't they??" Just stop fuckin quoting him good god

Seems to me an awful lot of Star Citizens are spending so much time posting defenses on social media, skimming related articles and doxxing The Smart, they really can't be logging much flight time. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! They are spending so much time rallying around The Crobber because they can't log any real flight time!

No but I think we should just call all star citizen cultists Karl. Gryphon is just some sexually frustrated shitizen who spends his time posting on reddit and stalking people who talk bad about the game cause the game is too broken to even play so they gotta do something with their time.

Merry Christmas Star Citizen thread. It is my firm belief that the furniture is so expensive so that when CIG goes tits up and liquidates, Roberts will be able to offload the furniture and keep the money. Also 300 staff will cost about a million a month which means they're probably running another million a month in software and hardware costs which means they will probably last until at least April if they had 11.5M at the start of this month as Derek's 'sources' have said.

MeLKoR posted:In my short, days long, presence on reddit I've been told that people in one instance (orbit) will be able to see and bomb people in a completely different instance (planet surface). How? Who knows... I've been told that you can't track anyone all over the server to repeatedly grief them because of instances man but that simultaneously it will be trivial to track a bounty/pirate using spy cameras that can follow him through whatever instance he's in. How? Who knows... We have our differences but I can confirm that those who think there's been any indication that you can bomb people from orbit are indeed delusional and making poo poo up. Also the separate instances only generate when there's too many people in one area to support properly.
