I like how the first reply is someone being a condescending arsehole, because it totally isn't a toxic cult community.

quote:

Uh, they are making game mechanics? O.o

Game mechanics - nothing is done yet because the game isnt done yet
Economy - of course theres no economy yet because none of the systems to do anything economy like are in the game. Just an FYI they have a guy who has around 30-40 years as an economy expert with a masters in the stuff designing their economy system.
- Instancing, they know what they are doing
- We know what happens when you die or eject, plenty of OFFICIAL posts about this topic over the last 2 years
- the purpose is to do whatever you want, thats the point of a sandbox game
- Also PLENTY of official posts, videos, etc from devs about different mechanics, including mining, repair, transport, science etc.

Im sorry but your "concerns" fell flat on their face before you even started typing. Just because something is not in the game does not mean the devs know nothing about it or what to do about a particular subject. Also your "concerns" fell completely flat since as I said above there is PLENY of official posts and videos etc over the last 2 years that you apparently havent looked for.

They know what they are doing :colbert:

I get that it's typical game dev fuckery to have what seems to be one thing actually be a tiny model projected inside the player's helmet or whatever

It's the opposite in this case. Instead of being 1/100th scale and projected inside your helmet it's 100 times larger than it appears and rendered at a distance of 10km, projected onto a laser scanned and mocapped Lesnick rear end. The jank comes from loading the rear end and then having to render it transparent.

"Guys I know that this is a really lovely method of fingerprinting a system but CIG doesn't have to tell people that they're doing a poo poo job they can just pretend that they're doing a good job and nobody will know."

None of this matters because they have no design document for the game.

Okay, well until they say something, I'm just going to imagine an idea that I like for how it should be handled. I'll then post about my own personal ideas and be mega-pissed if it doesn't turn out that way. I think I'm getting the hang of this game...

Remember to make it a poll. The developers pull all the citizens' polls every day, and incorporate the poll results into the code for the final game.
