The tea thing is probably accurate, too, as Bootcha can attest. I turn into a homicidal sociopath without adequate tea, which is probably why he gave me a giant box each of English breakfast and Irish breakfast for Christmas. Do you boil it first or just munch it down

I disagree. Spitting out versions just for the sake of spitting out a version without any relevant updates is not really how real development should be done.

It's a great idea really, spergs think they will get a major version update, CIG just rubs their hands and is glad major revisions of a version just come this cheap. But what are versions, eh

Crazy_BlackParrot posted:something something laundering funds something something nepotism and putting SC in maintenance modus. Don't worry guys, there's no feature list because we will just release everything that's finished when our fixed patch release date rolls around. Also we can't tell you when the patch will arrive because we don't have a fixed patch release date. EightAce posted:There is a special surprise coming alright...... Surely CIG aren't going to announce something bad prior to the release of SQ42?

I make decisions without really considering other people, or if I do consider them it's briefly because frankly I don't care. If people question me on my bad selfish decisions I'll often lie because it's easier to make an excuse than it is to have a discussion about why you skipped so and so's birthday, or this event, etc. Yes there are. Unless this guy pulled a Kylo Ren mind rape, he does not "know" Sandi. I've worked with people for years, and not a single one "knows" me. I extract great enjoyment when I watch people mentally link multiple unrelated concepts into a cohesive whole, or in other words, "delude themselves." You could easily say that Sandi is a garbage person, but I like spaceships and I'm looking forward to Star Citizen. You could say that Sandi is actually great, but the game looks like it'll probably collapse because Chris is running it into the ground. Or you could say, Chris is doing a great job, and I feel for the guy's difficulties, but the game looks like it's in danger of failure. But no! All thoughts must be linked, therefore Sandi is great, Chris is great, I love spaceships, and Star Citizen will be awesome. This is why you can't get through to some people. Until they can decouple independent concepts, you have to either bring them over wholesale, or let them muck around in their own poo poo.

Looks like it. This isn't something that warrants patch number increments but then again they are using "alpha" and "game" when its not really warranted either. ps they are doing it this way so that when Elite hits the time for their scheduled 3.0 expansion they'll be at or near the same number.

KiddieGrinder posted:I want a flight stick with a little mouse on it, and that also has an even tinier thumbstick on it. I was hoping the Star Citizen branded joystick would have a touchpad in place of a hat. I think it does have a trackball though, but that's just not the same. I still don't have a good solution for firing gimbaled weapons while orienting with a different axis. Tijuana Bibliophile posted:Add 12 buttons each for my other four fingers and you got yourself a customer The G600 is what I upgraded from. I love the thumb buttons, as you can tell which one your finger is on just from the angle, but I never ended using them for anything other than awsd when running from place to place in Skyrim and Fallout 4 while eating with my left hand. Really, really good mouse though. Sure comfortable, and you can map the far right alt to a real actual third mouse button.

If people question me on my bad selfish decisions I'll often lie because it's easier to make an excuse than it is to have a discussion about why you skipped so and so's birthday, or this event, etc. What I'm really trying to isolate is what is Fuzzy Modem's investment in Sandi? I think it has to go deeper than "I don't want to admit I could have been fooled" because lately I think we all know the fallibility of humans' ability to judge other humans. I don't even know what conclusions those emails make apparent, I haven't read them in a while but I was honestly a little disappointed Beer didn't get much more of a rise out of her. You can quote it endlessly with no context for giggles but there was no meltdown. She's obviously never doubted herself and as a likely consequence quickly banged out her responses to Beer without much of a second look, so there are some bad phrases. If you want, ignore all the other rumors because if they're true, Star Citizen will probably go tits up and those rumors can be confirmed, or not, at that time.
