If you bothered to watch Chris, you'd know that "Grabby hands" have actually been upgraded to "Wavy hands"

Take an unpopular peripheral that already looks like it's designed by a committee and improve it by having it redesigned by 700,000 idiots. It's like monkeys & typewriters eventually creating the complete works of Shakespeare but this guy actually thinks it's a good business model.

Kakarot posted:Hey /r/starcitizen! I think my videos were submitted to your lovely sub a few times and even reached your frontpage. In them, I was defending Star Citizen from unfair criticism, whilst not being a backer myself. I have now finally given in, and made another vid to explain to my viewers what convinced me in the end. With you I just want to share the script of said video so I don't bore you with my YT shenanigans, but if you are interested in the visual part, I'll link to the video at the end of the post. I can't tell if this is serious or if it's a joke.

I recently got into a discussion with a backer and asked "Do you think it is normal to stop development on a major feature 2 weeks before release (I was referencing Star Marine)?". The answer was prompt and simple: "Yeah sure." I asked how he knows that, and he tells me that he is a developer for the game ARK. So yeah, shifting focus to other parts of a project, even if you are a week away from releasing a really big feature is normal in game development.

ARK is one of those early access survival crafting games that will never get released.

The Kins posted:Amazon just launched their own fork of CryEngine, with hookers and blackjack. Yep. This cannot go unnoticed. For a direct link go here. Amazon Lumberyard is a free AAA game engine deeply integrated with AWS and Twitch – with full source. See, I'm betting a few enterprising folks can make a better SC clone with this than CIG have already done. I'm going to look forward to seeing that in a couple of months.

Toops posted:Yeah this one really kills me. I've had to deal with chaos and change in every field of software engineering I've worked in. Games is no different. That was me, exactly, in the late eighties. While at university, I went from dodgy back yard software skunkworks "resident", to garage-operation lone coder, to an actual paid position at a dodgy French game developer/publisher. That gig paid so little I couldn't afford the rent and food bills simultaneously... but still spouting "I'm never working 9 to 5 in a boring proper office", "I'm gunna be rich MY way, pay off the old folks' mortgage and drive a sports car", and all that crap. Five glorious years of Amiga game development. Fun part of my life. Everything about that industry was great. Except the industry. Broken by shonky operators, incompetent project planning (can't bring myself to call what they did "project management") and breathtakingly shameless abuse of coders' work ethics and drive to complete. It was about the time I had to choose between enjoying Paris on an empty stomach OR enjoying Paris without a roof over my head that I woke the hell up and got the gently caress out of games.

Incombibulator posted:Yep. This cannot go unnoticed. It is painfully obvious that you nothing about parody-game-development. Frankly, whatever outdated engine Star Plebian runs on was the wrong choice for what Toops dreamed up, but it is a fact that Lumberyard was simply not availabe at the start of development two weeks ago. Changing engine this far into pre-parp-alpha development now would mean throwing all the assets away and starting from scratch. Nice try with the reverse psychology attempt, but an idiot can see this is just your twisted and manipulative way of shilling SC and that you are just an alt of Croberts.

They didn't properly read that part of the annual report. 1. The column of figures he's quoting there was Year Ended March 2011, not 2015. 2. All figures were in thousands of US dollars.
