Oh wait. That's a concept video? For an upcoming sale, maybe? So it's not actually representative of anything you'll be adding to the game in the near future?

Not cool, guys. Not cool.

Well, they gotta get SOMETHING on sale soon. They've not been selling at least one limited ship for days now. The free fly isn't generating enough revenue to keep them revenue positive. The Reliant (ship in the foreground) is due to hit the hangars soonish so they need a new banner image to go with that announcement & associated sale. So there's that.

Still terrible.

Is the "The Commanders" expansion going to be the big multiplayer thing or did that already happen? I kinda want to fly around with friends and explore space, find hostiles, and blow them the gently caress up while making money.

You can already do that. It's a pretty fun game, good core mechanics but the layers above are being built slowly.

To put a myth to bed, most of the grunts in the UK actually really like Sandi and think she's a nice person, I'm being serious, and I know different ,but just saying ....
As you can see 'Im catching up on the thread and last I was around I think Sandi hate was still raging?
Also bare in mind that UK residents are the most cynical bastards on the planet so she is clearly doing something right , she just doesn't seem to be able to transfer this likability over to the colonies.
Our Hun friend has not yet announced to the general populace that he is leaving but it will be out there soon enough.

They only "like" her because they don't get to interact with her much. Being over the pond and all.

How about the fact that they won't even begin to figure out how to incorporate private servers until the game is done and live. I am not an expert but that doesn't seem like the kind of thing you can slap on to the end of development.

It's not. It's an entirely different architecture which warrants a completely different code base. They're never - ever - doing it; so nothing to worry about.

caveat:

seeing the poo poo that's their "persistent" universe, I won't be surprised if they trash all that and go straight to player hosted client/server model, with a server browser. If they do - and keep the PU (in whatever lovely state) - then they'd probably split the game again. Star Citizen (PU), Squadron 42, Star Shitizen (server browser).

when they shovel this turd out the door in whatever state it's in when they go broke, the PU is going to be at best a spreadsheet that keeps track of player account balances and maybe a rudimentary good/evil system that influences which line of dialogue some NPCs say when you walk past

Blizzard shuts down your bnet account for charge backs, and rightfully so because if that is a serious post then you are a huge human being.

oh no I wouldn't be able to play blizzard games again (Diablo 3 sucks, SC2 sucks, WoW sucks, TeamFortress2 already exists, did I miss anything?) But no, I wouldn't seriously do a charge-back because of their new changes, but I would want to do a charge-back to get my money back and get banned from bnet games in the future. I also wont do that because I'd have to like call the bank or go on the website. gently caress that keep my money, gently caress your game

The last great game a company named Blizzard released was in like 2003 and Blizzard essentially literally a different entity now. I have WC3 on CD anyway
