This is a crazy awkward stream...are they all like this? Holy poo poo, they were calling Ben fat and insulting Sandi to her face and Lando had to acknowledge that he's ignoring questions about their failed promises. Great job, community team e: for the new page: http://www.twitch.tv/cigcommunity

Jonny Nox posted:In what way is the SC experience "deeper". Assuming we get the game it seems like the same game loop as all the others A hypothetical scenario would be you being a mercenary and having to steal a large ship from a hangar on a planet. You and your crew start a firefight with security when stealth fails but manage to hack it and get away anyways. You and your friends have to fight the security fighters tailing you. At some point you find out you have a tracking device on your hull and poo poo isn't going to end until its removed so someone has to EVA outside to remove it and hope you don't get ambushed again in the process. Just something I thought off of of the top of my head that would be fun to play but won't happen because CIG isn't going to make it and nobody else seems to be interested in a spaceship game beyond the spaceship part. It's pretty understandable because it takes a lot of resources. Perhaps the advent of VR will make a stronger argument for that kind of thing.

I downloaded the game, hit the character generator and was. Then I got in and found that there was a thriving economy of people loving each other over for farming spots. Inverness posted:Just something I thought off of of the top of my head that would be fun to play but won't happen because CIG isn't going to make it and nobody else seems to be interested in a spaceship game beyond the spaceship part. It's pretty understandable because it takes a lot of resources. No, no it doesn't, it takes lot of _systems_. Resources don't really matter once you have the systems down, but in your brief example: You have to have a mechanism for ownership of assets that allows for said assets to be 'stolen'. Easy enough, you make a transponder that can be recoded, so you need to have a method of recoding transponders. But how do you make this difficult or at least skill-based to mean that everyone isn't just stealing anything locked down? Stealth. You're going to have to lever in three different systems for stealth, starting at spaceflight and concluding at 'sneaking around on foot'. You want a button, or should it be skill-based? If skill based, how do you make it something that requires skill while being procedural? Relatively simple things become trees or graphs when you start to explore the concepts, but the first thing you do with any of the systems is break them. So what happens if you steal your own ship? Is it a viable method of monetizing insurance? Can you steal a ship to get around bounties? Who reports the ship stolen? If I report a ship stolen, and it isn't, what happens? These are the things that we've been talking about since the kickstarter passed 8 million, how does he actually supply all the things mentioned, let alone promised without locking down some of the most basic things. Like how insurance actually works.

MeLKoR posted:And now for something completely different... Considering that we don't poo poo on SC supporters here, like they do non-believers over at Reddit, his concerns are unfounded. I mean, for example, Loush (?) ran himself off when it came time for him to follow-up on promises to get a refund if 2.x didn't live up to expectations. I miss that guy though. His posts were great.

It's pretty understandable because it takes a lot of resources. You can do a lot of that in Space Engineers (and to a lesser extent in other games like Empyrion: Galactic Survival). In theory they could make some sort of thrilling FPS out of it like you mentioned (SE is definitely not that), but citizens keep pointing at people flying around in ships and then getting out of them to jetpack around and saying that nobody has done it before when it's just not true. Also, VR will be amazing for flying around in spaceships but I still don't see how it won't be incredibly awkward as some kind of FPS experience.

Thing is, these assholes think that I go out of my way to get people to like me. I don't. People who know me either like or hate me. People who know me, work for me etc, have no reason to hate me because I am a completely different person when it comes to how I regard people.

Unfunny Poster posted:I mean I think Derek is a dummy a lot of the time, and his games are pretty terrible, but that doesn't stop me from posting here or laughing at some of the things Derek says/does. Yes, but I think this guy is the perfect example of the bonanza CIG turned DSmart into. He came off as frustrated with the way they handle things and the guys in the community that hand wave every failure and I think he might have ended up channeling some of that frustration to the only target he was allowed to attack. It's funny that of everything CIG did related to this project the demonization of Derek Smart ended up being by far the most effective measure they ever took.

Inverness posted:I meant resources as in funds and people to develop the game. What you want is Battlefield, but with spaceships. It just isn't going to work as a massively multiplayer game. So you want to hijack a particular ship? Why is it in the space-port in the first place? Did another factions PCs fly it there? Why would any sane player be playing a game where they are just waiting around a ship for an attack that they aren't supposed to know is coming? Why can you predict that the ship is going to be there? What happens if you get your guild together to make this raid and half your party decides not to show? What happens if the rival faction gets the flu and the ship isn't there? It would be cool if you could steal the ship and then evade pursuit until you get the ship to a safe haven, but who's going to be persuing you? Even if your game can handle that many players with that kind of fidelity, what if the pursuing fighter pilots were just not logged in? NOW, Set the scenario up as a raid instead. Local Crime Magnate has contacted you to relieve Very Legitimate Businessman of his nice fast freighter. He tells you that it's going to be docking on deck 4 which can only be accessed by elevator X. In gameplay terms you and your crew get together to take down this freighter and gather in elevator X. Pressing the "Deck 4" button transports you to the instance where the arrival of the ship is set for a predetermined range of time after you begin. Meanwhile your crew is interfacing with systems, NPC, and PCs (hired to defend the ship, matchmaking happening behind the scenes, they also arrived by elevator) and you steal the ship. Yaay! The pilot you physically haul out of the pilot's seat is just a dummy and acts as another kind locational damage for the ship by the way, but it feels good so whatever. The remainder of your Crew piles into the ship and mans the turrets while your pilot specialist takes off. You are still in the instance so the mission has been written up such that you race outside of the station you are in and land at a "private" hanger. NPC, or maybe warped-in PC pilots chase you around the station until you reach your destination, get a cutscene of Local Crime Underboss thanking you for your service and paying you off, then you leave through a main entrance that drops you in a discrete area of the station in the actual main server where you can interface with shopkeepers, quest-givers, and PCs again like any MMO. Then you climb into your Gladius and do the same gameplay loop that you do in Elite. It would be really cool, but it's not the game that CIG is pitching anymore. And really if the part of the gameplay you like is the instance (and you should it's really cool) maybe the way forward is a Co-op FPS with flyable vehicles and awesomely large levels with a good matchmaking system to dump you into a match.

I don't understand why Loiosh is remembered so fondly. Despite his friendly demeanor he was first and foremost a massive equivocator. More often than not if someone had a reasonable point that conflicted with his reality he'd just dance around or outright ignore it.
