We're just starting week 2 of the month* of no PU updates of consequence and the brown sea is already salty. Guess it's okay to pump out crappy videos as long as the PU is getting updated, but stop that and suddenly...




*actually the PU isn't getting anything for at least a year, but gotta dampen those expectations one month at a time!

Xenology is an unnatural mixture of science fiction and formal logic. At its core is a flawed assumption...

that an alien race would be psychologically human.

ben, i feel that this whole situation has gotten out of hand and you're not sure how to deal with it. i'm sure you're wrought with anxiety, constantly feeling that sinking feeling in your stomach. i've been here for quite a while and if I've learned one thing, it's that lowtax is very accommodating. if you send him a pm i'm confident he'll close this thread because personal attacks, doxxing, and video game narrative control is not acceptable here.

Say what you want about E:D but I personally got burnt by their sale they put on a few weeks ago. Bought the base game for 20bux, not knowing there was a standalone expansion coming literally a few days later that costs $40 in addition, and it wasn't mentioned anywhere on the product page. So now I have to spend more money than what I would have in the first place because of a shady sale timing. Still managed to get a refund though, thankfully, so my opinion of Frontier is better than CIG at least. But man, that was a lovely loving move.

The expansion was announced 5 months ago. And you would have gotten a $15 credit on the purchase of Horizons, meaning you would have payed a whopping $5 more to play it earlier.

The gently caress are you on about? Who said anything about deliberately loving ME over? They put their base game on sale a week before they release an expansion that has 0 need for the base game, then give you no discount to buy the expansion, which is 3x what I paid for the game in the first place. It was a sneaky move that hosed over a bunch of people who decided to buy during that sale because of all the praise people were singing about the game at the time.

I guess the other thing that annoyed me is E:D is actually not that interesting to play personally, and the only thing that looked interesting, planetary landings and exploration, is another 40bux I don't want to spend just to be bored again in an hour.

Actually they did give a discount for past owners. 25%

Calling bullshit on that. They probably had even more material prepared, or were hoping to make this another show option, but even SC posters didn't like it, so now "we only had 3 episodes planned" "we just coincidentally have one more to release" "it's definitely not because that one is already mostly done and we're releasing it anyway, it's because that's all the episodes we could possibly prepare! *tugs collar*"

It's Ben. Of course he's lying.

Evidently in the 30th century, everyone is the exact same height, but there MAY be something in the CryEngine that might (and this is by no means definite) allow them to make some different weights.

In XCOM news there's a cool buff called "Threat Assessment". I think of that reddit dude writing an angry post about Derek Smart when I use it.

Also terrain is destructible just like the old sprite based XCOMs. Leveling buildings is a viable option when you have dudes high up shooting at you. Haven't seen a first XCOM like autocannon with HE rounds for completely leveling maps but I'm sure someone will mod it.

man there is a notable difference in tone when the developers show up. from the get-go they're being all "thanks so much we are so grateful to the backers for allowing us to provide for our families"

contrasted with Great Dictator Roberts getting all pissy that folks are asking him about star marine, it's really something else

basically i hope that a bunch of the programmers and developers manage to get out of this in one piece because it sounds like a hellish thing to be stuck in

He used to be a loudmouth arrogant coder but one day he made a mistake and his fiance got killed. He went on a Benedictine monastery and only came out of seclusion after hearing a couple of other monks commenting that Chris Roberts had returned to save PC gaming.

I think Toops needs to find some old broken game engine that no one uses anymore and spend all his time pissing about trying to force it to do something it was never designed for. Cocos3d is a good candidate.

If you take an hour of time and it takes 4 employees an hour then the amount of money wasted is each person's hourly wage PLUS the productivity lost. NOT the damned props. I do feel a little bad for Ben, he's too dumb to understand he's dumb.
