spacetoaster posted:BOOTCHA, does anyone and CIG have eyes on this kind of stuff? I know we talk a lot of crap about Ben, Chris, and Sandi, but surely they'd take action if they knew about this stuff? Right?!?? I genuinely think that not only are the marketing and community team fully aware of it, but at least at the executive level they are proud of it. Everything I have read suggests that CIG has a bubble around them where the project is all that matters. They don't see addicts talking about making sacrifices, they see dedicated fans with a personal connection to the project. Nothing can go wrong. The possibility of failure, and the consequences of that failure, are inconceivable to them.

spacetoaster posted:Please post how to do this. You have to play 'arena commander' to get something called REC. You may have REC on your account already if you're an early backer. It's pretty easy, you go to 'electronic' or whatever, then arena commander, public game, set it to 'Vandull Swarm Co-op", and spend like 15-20 minutes shooting NPC space mans. Its a middling fly around and shoot space mans thing. Then you go to RSI website and go to their store, "electronic access," "weapons." this store lets you rent equipment such as ships and guns for 7-day periods. Apparently its actually 7x 24 hour periods, so if you skip a few days, it doesnt count against your rental time. Buy one or more of these, depending if your ship has size 1 or size 2 hardpoints. You can check on their ship store page for the ship you have *Note, if the ship guns are on 'gimbals', that reduces the size of the slot by one. So a size 1 gimbled weapon fits into a size 2 hardpoint, but if you remove the gimbal, which you dont need for this purpose, you can equip a weapon one size higher.* Then boot up star shitizen, and visit your hangar. This is where it gets janky. Near where you spawn in should be some kind of table you can press F on, it brings up an unintuitive hologram interface. You do things by clicking the mouse and dragging. At the top are categories, you swap between categories by clicking on the top and dragging it to one side or another like a wheel. Select "ships" and you should see a little hologram of your ship on the right, click it and drag it to the middle. Move the top category wheel over to 'weapons' For me, the weapons dont visually appear at first. you have to move your mouse around the blank space to the right of the hologram ship until you find the invisible weapon, a box will appear with a description for it. On your ship hologram model, you can see the weapons already equipped, you click them and drag them off to the right to unequip them. They get replaced by blue? spheres on the hologram, the sphere represents an open hard point. *note, i think if you need to remove gimbals, this is the time to do it, by dragging them off to the right like the weapons* Hunt around in the blank space for your tarantula or longsword gun, and once you've found it, click and drag to one of the hardpoints on the ship. If you're successful, the blue sphere will vanish. Once you've got the ballistic guns equipped, you need to rotate the category wheel once again, to the 'ammo' category. you may or may not be able to see ammo on the right side, if it hasnt appeared, play the mouse curson hunt game again. The main hologram of your ship will once again display colored sphered, a colored sphere now indicates a gun that doesnt have ammo equipped. Drag the ammo to the sphere until the sphere goes away. If the sphere has disappeared, you've succeeded. Once you're done, exit back to main menu and go into the griefing module, the guns you rented+equipped should be on your space ship when you spawn it in. What a wonderful and immersive and fidelity-filled way to change weapon loadouts huh! * For me, ships dont render at 5km out, but you can still target them with Y, and that draws a box around them on your hud, just fire into the center of the box and move the mouse around a bit until you get confirmed hits. It shows a hologram of the targeted ship on the top right of your hud, and shows when you score hits. You can see the ships explode from 5k out and will lose target lock on them when they do. * if the mouse seems to have a giant dead zone when you're trying to use it to aim, try pressing ctrl-G or ctrl-C, those change something with the mouse aiming mode i think.

Ask him to send you pictures of the hole he punched and promise to back star citizen Then don't spend money on this poo poo and tell him, so he punches another hole, then ask for another picture and promise to really back this time Then do it again and again until his house collapses, since these rubes will believe in anything That way he learns a life lesson maybe

Like, my game design knowledge is hobbyist at best with UE4, but the fact they haven't even bothered to add any sort of economy thing like mining, trading, cargo, or whatever, is astounding at this stage of development. Like, it's mind boggling to consider a space game has been in development for this long and they don't even have anything to show for it. It's like if they were building a city builder game and haven't even shown a working example of roads or zoning because they were too busy modeling v4 of the Sears Tower. Or like a Sims type game where they sold a hundred different types of hats yet no pictures exist of any sort of house let alone architectural tools.

As it stands now CIG is denying all refunds, or at least appear to be. Depending on when you pledged/how your bank works it may be past their window to initiate a chargeback as well. I still need to get a hold of my bank personally since I've been distracted with holiday stuffs, but as it stands now I may be stuck with my $65 jpeg.

phosdex posted:SWG had its problems but I personally had a lot of fun in it. The player run economy really did make being a crafter useful which made gathering useful. And like someone mentioned a few pages ago, when the Jump to Lightspeed expansion launched, it had real multi-crew ships that you could walk around and interact with other players all while flying around in space. With CIG's 90% npcs, I don't see player crafting ever being as deeply involved as SWG. IMO, runescape's economy will probably outmatch whatever CIG comes up with.

"I like my Reliant" says a man about a thing that doesn't even exist yet even in the model viewer program. The sheer thought of thinking you "own" a digital object, wow Depending on what parts of the forum you read, I fluctuate from not blaming/praising CR from fleecing gullible sperg fucktards/furries out of millions, to thinking they're assholes for abusing people with genuine mental illness.

First off, gently caress you. Second, I forgive you, you were brought in to do a job. Whatever, water under the bridge, I don't know YOUR name yet, I suspect I could if I wanted, but gently caress it. For now. Third, in exchange for ratting me out to CIG, I want you to go to Sandi and Ortwin and tell them to refund this "Humility" guy. No ifs-ands-or-fucks about it. This guy is not fiscally responsible and in no way shape or form contributes to your employer's well-being or your paycheck. You're a former cop, read this guy's posts; assess this risk. This guy is not mentally sound. I want you to tell Sandi and Ortwin to refund this guy. Have Sandi send him a personal email saying "we appreciate your enthusiasm and support, but we don't need you to endanger your well-being and relationships to make this game, here's your money back, we will see you at launch, see you in the 'verse". gently caress, give him a free Aurora so he can AC and PTU 2-point-gently caress.
