https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rz9dEVNhqrk Its incredibly pro-click. Its only a minute and a half long and I thought I had accidentally found a troll's edit of it instead. Holy poo poo thats funny-bad. This is the best thing since CR playing the game, which was in turn the best thing since Citizencon. I like how at the end in their hilarious comedy skit Ben asks if he can pay real money for a ship that can win every dogfight and they're like lol no of course not. Thats just straight up bullshit, about the only thing normies will know about star citizen is that you can buy spaceships, and they have super expensive dedicated dogfight ships you can pay money for. I get the mental gymnastics the Shitizens go through to blind themselves to the fact that SC's ship system is the definition of pay2win, since pay2win is bad and SC is good. I get the impression Sandi possibly has no idea what pay2win is while Ben is really stretching his own suspension of disbelief here. Maybe Sandi does know she's lying and thats why she blinks 300 times in 90 seconds.

What you need are professionals with experience on mocap who will work for far less than Gary Oldman, and then top notch talent voice actors who can overcome the limitations of the medium through the power of their voice. I've been playing through the mass effect series again lately and it's amazing how much better lance heinriksen is than gary oldman doing basically the same character.

Naughty Dog started using mocap with the second of the Uncharted games and they had the voice actors provide the mocap data because they felt that having one person provide the physical acting and another person providing the voice acting would have too much of a disconnect between the performances, but the difference is that they weren't employing AAA-tier Hollywood talent for either. Also they didn't use mocap for things like faces and finger animation, all that stuff was keyframed. There's an article about it here that goes into more detail.

Man that versebusters thread is really negative, the worm is definitly turning against CIG. I kinda wanna see someone do a study on how dumping everyone with complaints into the same subforum affects the community, I imagine it just makes things worse since fans with a complaint have to go to the angry zone and be exposed to negativity rather than having complaints swarmed and downplayed by fans in the other subforums. eventually the dam will rupture

D_Smart posted:They don't. And don't have to. It's one massive world that's streamed in chunks. Then why the hell wouldn't they just do that? There's fidelity, it's fun and it can switch between modes quickly and seamlessly while providing a positive user experience. I've never made a game, my programming knowledge ends at making .bat files that say the word "Boobs" a bunch while playing the opening to "Funky Town" in beeps, so I have no idea how to make a game, but it seems like there's a good many folks that do. It seems like every problem SC has hit is selfmade and has been solved in countless other games. Why the gently caress are they trying to reinvent the wheel with a series of rube goldberg devices? I get they want seamless poo poo, but it's been done by other companies like Rockstar, Blizzard and even goddam DICE so many times you'd think it wouldn't be the cluster gently caress that it is. I'm sure I'm naive as gently caress when it comes to the actual process of design and coding, but from my wheelhouse, which is business and personnel management, it seems like almost anyone else could have fixed this by now.

It's Chris's pathological need to have everything in the game in the same engine, in the same space, like in the real world, instead of using the programming tricks that every successful company uses to fantastic effect. And to make sure we all know that they're not using tricks, they have meticulously coded a fuckload of tricks to obscure the fact that nothing works. That, along with Lando's profound announcement that "you're not controlling your ship; you're controlling your man controlling your ship", lets us all know the magic we're in for.

peter gabriel posted:I've said from the start, these people do not want a game or gameplay, they are actively opposed to people playing games. They want a safe place to log into at night and forget their lovely lives. They want to stand around a virtual bar looking at each others uniforms, saluting and tossing each other off while saying poo poo like 'Space is harsh Commando' and 'Yes I agree Commando space is harsh that is why I am drinking a whisky in this bar with you by the way I like your uniform' Star Citizen is doing it wrong with Arcbar and MMH club and VR is not going to happen because Fidelity > Immersion. But if somebody made a VR game set inside an intergalactic bar, where you sat in dimly lit booths and chatted with avatars of your VR friends sipping your real life whisky below your VR headset, they would get players galore. There doesn't have to be an elaborate game mechanic, either-- just a stunning view of ships coming and going, maybe some virtual alien cocktail waitresses, and a grizzled old bartender with an eyepatch who gives you that nod, that you've seen hell too mate, you're welcome here nod that would make them feel like they've a refuge, out there nestled in a backwater nebula, where they're treated like a decorated veteran for enduring the petty kind of bullcrap they put up with day in and out... ('my boss promoted the younger guy with the masters degree', 'my wife keeps bitching about me not helping enough around the house', etc.) I'm belaboring Pgabz's point and adding little new but drat that really is it.

Booblord Zagats posted:Then why the hell wouldn't they just do that? There's fidelity, it's fun and it can switch between modes quickly and seamlessly while providing a positive user experience. To be be ever so slightly fair to CIG, they don't do it because space is a very different environment from a city, in particular in terms of how far you can see and, consequently, what strategies you can employ for cutting the world up into useful chunks. That said, yes, they do have a faiblesse for the overly complicated, mainly rooted in some romantic notion of how the standard tricks that all games employ to convey the illusion of grand scale are horrible tricks and cheats because… well… that's exactly what they are. They believe that conveying an illusion is a bad thing rather than the rational way of creating something that works; that it must be “real” rather than an illusion; and that it must be made real through pointless simulation of minutiae rather than through tricks and shortcuts that yield the exact same results. Think of it as the gaming version of the 1960s epics that eventually broke Hollywood: instead of using the tricks of the trade to put an image of some ancient Roman forum on screen with a few cleverly shot extras to make it appear like it was crowded, they built a Roman forum and filled it with a crowd of extras (and for added over-the-top:ness, it was scaled up to be bigger than it ever was in real life).
