Beer4TheBeerGod posted:When EightAce made that comment about the helipad it made me end up finding Foundry 42's location to see if they had one. Instead I found this. Wait. Did you honestly believe that they were building a whole different game engine (flight dynamics, physics etc) specifically for SQ42? Seriously? Dude, how many times have I posted that every single thing backers are playing RIGHT NOW is what's going into SQ42? Bugs and all. Why do you think SM was nerfed? That mocap poo poo is going into SQ42 first, then the PU (now a test bed). And if they don't have enough of SQ42 to serve as test bed (note, they're begging backers to play AC now), they may merge some of it into the PU first, then use backers as testers.

Prop Wash posted:Hey Derek smart you mentioned a "nest egg," I imagine Chris Roberts must have been amassing quite a bit of money of his own between wing commander and now - is that what you're referring to? Would he put his personal fortune on the line for this, and if so, how much are we talking? No. I have written about how broke they were prior to Star Citizen. It's not something that I made up. The nest egg comes from Star Citizen gains. How else do you think they moved from an apt to a $17K+ per month house, complete with cook, help etc? Post Star Citizen funding?

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:Holy poo poo this article is amazing. Excuse the lovely Google translate, but... From the article: quote:Stellen wir uns in einer Mission allerdings besonders gut oder eben auch schlecht an, könnte das weitere Aufträge aktivieren. Soweit der Plan, zeigen konnten uns die Entwickler davon noch nichts, was über die Präsentationen von der CitizenCon 2015 hinausgehen. Das Team kann zwar schon alle Einsätze durchspielen, aber vorführen wollen sie die Misionen in diesem Zustand noch nicht. "If we do especially well or badly in a mission, this could unlock further missions. That's the plan, but the developers couldn't show us anything that went beyond the presentations of CitizenCon 2015. The team is able to play through all the missions, but didn't want to demonstrate the missions in their current state of development yet." quote:Holy poo poo. That's what they said. Another space gem: quote:Damit dieser Plan aufgeht, muss das erste Soloabenteuer aber erstmal fertig werden. Und wenn wir nach unserem Besuch beim verantwortlichen Entwicklerstudio im englischen Wilmslow eines sagen können, dann: Squadron 42 könnte der Traum vieler Wing-Commander-Veteranen werden, aber der Release im Jahr 2016 wird wohl eine knappe Kiste. Eine Verschiebung bis 2017 würde uns jedenfalls nicht sehr überraschen. "For this to be successful [the release of four episodes], they first have to finish the first one. And if there's one thing we can say after our visit ... in Wilmslow, it is this: Squadron42 could be the dream of many a Wing Commander veteran, but a release in 2016 will be a tight schedule. A delay until 2017 wouldn't come as a big surprise to us."

By "play through all the missions" they mean move their hands around making whoosh and pew noises. Then they watch the Oswald parts from JFK for 10 hours.

So far I have experience the fidelity of the head bobbing, motion blur, unintuitive controls (except F12 for the chat box...hello commandos) and clipping through the airlock. I have also experienced a five minute load time, and stealing somebody's constellation by pressing F to use the chair before he got to it. I managed to get the constellation into the air and did a few flips and barrel rolls above the landing pad, all while the vessel's erstwhile captain stood behind me watching desperately, helplessly. Then I somehow tangled it up in the pipes all over Port Olisar, and held down the E key until I turned into a wiggly ragdoll in empty space. When I woke up, I couldn't move or kill myself, then the game crashed. Lowtax, good luck.

Those of you who have flown a Glaive, is the cockpit and pilot's seat greatly enlarged to fit a Vanduul pilot? Or is this yet another ship that will have to be revamped once they realize they did it wrong the first time? asking because my immersion may be broken.

It's a PM with additional responsibilities. In the tv/film world they hire directors and do script review, they either put up the money (indie) or are responsible for it (studio) on top of being accountable for all the timeline resourcing and budget. I'd assume in the game world they'd hold similar expanded duties ie. Identifying key hires, managing resource balancing across smaller project plans etc. E: executive producer is almost always a vanity title for supplying money or somehow putting the deal together and they have almost no day to day impact.

Ash1138 posted:Sure, but certainly there's gotta be some kind of consumer protection law says you can't lie about how much has been invested in order to spur more people to invest. Or are we in a grey area because it's not "investing" it's "donating?" There is no law against it. Where it becomes a legal issue if during a lawsuit, someone brings it up and uses it (as most attorneys would) to show the court/judge a pattern of dishonest practices.

I love the WP interface desperately, but 8.1 is lacking som basic "phone poo poo" functionality. Plus I can just smell shitposting from a mile away. That poo poo's like the smell of coffee brewing to me. I've only been able to sleep in five minute increments since I discovered this thread last year.

Technically the Vanduul ships use a weird "lay-down" configuration that should make everything fit easier. Plus it has the added benefit of making any two-seater craft they'd implement turn into Star Centipede  Either way the cockpit and controls should be laughably oversized for human pilots, but I think they handwave that away by saying the Vanduul ships humans are flying are refit for human pilots by some company.

What you'd have to find out is whether they'll have to redesign the Scythe.
