I guess it's the weather or something, or just another British'ism, but that might put a twist on " Uhh excuse- actually no you're right haha  I'm sure they all hate her with a passion as well but stranger things have happened.

List of features for next 4 Alpha iterations: - Show Room - Clothing Shop - Weapons Shop - Outlet Mall - Arabian Market - Bank where you can buy store credit* - MoCapped NPC that reminds people that a substantial portion of the game has been released, as voiced by Andy Serkis. *store credit not valid in-game.

So a question for the more development oriented among us: how many of Star Citizen's problems are directly related to or magnified into showstoppers by the insistence on having the interiors of multicrew ships all be part of the same game world? As in, if the basic design document and scope of star citizen (I know, I know) was unchanged other than putting all non-single-seat ship interiors into seperate cells, would they be further along? I mean, the reason I ask is at least party because they seem to be reaping astonishingly little benefit from what seems to be one of the major technical hurdles. Like—if you could dynamically blow a hole in the side of a constellation and have it depressurize and watch stuff get sucked out into space, that would be a legitimate benefit to have everything on the same grid. But... instead we have static models you have to go through a transition animation to board anyway. unless they have plans for an ifv ship with little portholes the fellas can shoot out of

EightAce posted:The games industry is a very different beast. There are not that many jobs and not that many secure companies so when you land a decent gig you eat all the poo poo they throw at you until someone a bit higher up in the firm puts their CV around. I honestly feel so bad for devs who got a job there to make a fun spaceship mans game and are now chained up in some nightmare heironymus bosch painting of a work environment

BeefThief posted:This isn't shot live and then uploaded is it? Why do they leave in the outtakes? Why does Sandi have to look at the paper every 3 words? Lesnick doesn't have to do that. Honestly this has always amazed me - Ben the non-actor is better at memorizing scripts than Sandi is. I'm sure a lot of this is that Ben genuinely believes in Star Citizen, while Sandi just sees it as a chance to get money from nerds that she wouldn't normally talk to.

WTF?! Commando, this would be called immersive realism, a term you're obviously not familiar with. Get educated or you won't last long in the 'Universe. (making stuff like that is relatively easy, making actualy gameplay mechanics is apparently beyond them)

It boils down to two things. 1) Chris hasn't made a game for eons and the initial pitch was a few turbo squid models drifting around with his stupid face everywhere 2) The phenomena of un approval. He will ask the impossible, the impossible will just about get functional ....Then the c*nt changes his mind and gets distracted with farming or birds or whatever the gently caress ... I believe Mr Jennison outlined this very succinctly in his departure missive.....that is fake of course

WTF?! I .. I just can't. This is loving with my head. The game is in a shambles, it barely runs, you can barely call it a game and they're spending time and energy building an in game showroom to squeeze more money out of people. The size of their balls is incredible.

Huckaby gave an interview once and talked about how when he took over AtV, he found that "everything was so stiff and professional, I thought the spontaneous stuff going on between takes was more interesting, so I started putting that in the show!" Unfortunately Ben and Sandi have anti-chemistry, so what this amounts to is Ben making a pun or awkward hand gesture and Sandi laughing at him for being dumb. Over and over and over again.

Wait, so they're developing the in-game ship show-room, right? Meaning the game-currency shop? They don't even have any loving gameplay yet. Their ships don't always fly. Why would anyone spend dev or artist time on the showroom? I am increasingly convinced there are parts of their team that are habitually underutilized and somebody keeps making up busy projects to keep the team of artists employed.
