A Neurotic Jew posted:10 for the developers --- One of the important questions that got through was "Did you fix Mark Hamill's nose?"  --- Another question was about Battlefield Medics. When I think of that, I picture Battlefield, where a person can drop health and defib a recently downed team member. It's a vital player type and really can change the tide of battle, particularly in large firefights. But CIG completely misses the point of the question. Long story short? They've designed an insignia, a patch that designates them as Battlefield Medic on the left arm. (Or a Navy Foreman, which they see as some kind of equivalent...) Beyond that, they've not given that specialization any thought. But if you want to dress up like a Navy Foreman and pretend to be a Battlefield Medic for role playing purposes, feel free. Just don't expect to actually heal injured players in the heat of battle. (I can't believe this is the case - do any of you folks know better?) Though they haven't really thought about support character mechanics at all, they were quick to note later that your grenade count will be visible on your person, as each grenade in inventory will be hanging visibly on your belt. Fidelity! ---- "The Next Great Star Citizen Writer". Kill me now.

Lowtax posted:Okay now I am familiar with Angry Joe and understand why so many people dislike him!!!! hes always so angry! He was an associate of the old Channel Awesome crew (Nostalgia Critic, AVGN, etc). He and a bunch of Video Game people tried to start up a gaming website "Blistered Thumbs" but that tanked within a month or two. Last I saw he's associated with TotalBiscuit's Polaris network. He also gets carried away with his "Angry" character projection and can come off as a bit of a dick in addition to being insufferable. When he's not trying to prove anything, he's irritable but generally an okay person. Best I can describe him is an aging Manchild who's slowly realizing that his shtick doesn't hold water anymore?

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:CIG has a habit of repeating things until people believe they are true. They appreciate the community and are thankful to the backers (as they gouge them left and right but adamantly oppose anything that would give the backers more flexibility). They are one of the most open companies on the planet (though what they share is mostly useless fluff and marketing). Development is progressing very well (even though they never meet their own dates, what we have seen is a glitch filled abomination, and the pace of development is falling further behind the pace of scope creep). Everyone is happy with development (though refunds are now denied). Nobody has ever been banned for what they've done off the forums (the lead moderator is wrong when he references Twitter posts when explaining a ban). Developers are in constant communication with the backers (though Roberts flat out said any information coming from a source that isn't him is just an opinion and can't be trusted). The physics of the game is a high fidelity simulation (just that the ships are so poorly designed that they can't actually fly without cheating the numbers to the point where they are meaningless). Everything is coming together (even though designers are making changes without even knowing why they're working). Squadron 42 will be a AAA game experience on par with anything else out there (with 20 hours of gameplay that used to be 50). Everyone is happy to work at Cloud Imperium Games (ignore the private investigator scouring people's computers for leaks). CIG Santa Monica is a pleasant work environment without any toxicity (unless you're a butt hurt special snowflake with no balls). Illfonic completed their contract and delivered their portion of the FPS content (which is why nobody has seen any of it and Illfonic has indicated unexpectedly losing CIG's business has caused them financial problems). We've always been at war with Eastasia. ^this Goon. No wonder they hate him now with a passion previously reserved for that bastard, Derek Smart

Lowtax posted:I find it pretty amusing when people claim we're "hiding behind a paywall," but never explain what exactly we're hiding from. From what I recall, the sole reason I put up a paywall in the first place was to prohibit people spamming the forums with endless gimmick accounts that would do nothing but try to ruin threads by posting the same gigantic image repeatedly, or helpfully contributing to the community by calling people faggots. If there was no paywall, I absolutely guarantee you this thread would be overflowing with replies by people from a certain community intent on letting Derek Smart know he's a stupid friend of the family who should be lynched because he doesn't like their favorite video game. ^this

The short answer is CS tickets are the catch-all for everything that a backer wants to report to CIG. From what I've heard (and not seen for myself, to be fair) is the bug reporting system is a headache to file both on user and dev ends.

I don't care if it's not Dolvak but another one of those pricks that Beer trusts to do it, get it loving done. Make some loving time or take it the gently caress down and apologize. Like I was going to sit around waiting for those assholes. I didn't even need to ask Beer "Are they real", since I already knew that they were and didn't need to ask.

If there really is a "The Next Great Star Citizen Writer", the Fourth Stimpire writer should apply. you didn't miss anything though. it's yet another lengthy session revealing how little they've thought through the mechanics of gameplay. but if I can tell how many grenades another player has on their belt by looking, well fidelity trumps gameplay anyday and I'm excited to play this game!

It's not in the stretch goals, so they have every right to not do it. So yeah, they can break every single uttered promised that wasn't in writing. All of them. Including birds. Especially birds. And animals. And skinning animals.
