alf_pogs posted:its so funny that this game is clearly in development hell, an absolute abomination and destined to go the way of colonial marines or duke numem forever or at best devils third, and the fanbase is talking about rivalling minecraft for copies sold. The Colonial Marines comparison is especially apt. That game had so much loving potential and they just shat it all away, and the worst part is that it was actually a fun game! The campaign was loving dumb as poo poo but with 4 player co-op it was hilariously fun to get drunk and blast through, and a couple patches in the multiplayer was really loving good (right before everybody stopped playing). Colonial Marines could have been really good if Gearbox hadn't acted like friggin scumbags. Star Colonial Citizen Marine

Sarsapariller posted:Update on my chargeback: the bank has issued it provisionally, but they've sent me a letter requesting a more complete summary of the reasons why I think one is deserved in this case. Anyone want to help me out with some convenient summaries? I'm trying to build a case that they basically sold me a package of digital goods, failed to deliver on 75% of it (and what they did deliver was completely broken from any objective standard) and then changed their own terms to attempt to deny the refund. To that end I'm looking for links specifically related to: I will be happy to help with this.

Gilganixon posted:E: you lose the computergamesman title at pigeon level because at that point you're not here to game, you're all about Immersion (and to some extent, fidelity) The word seems to be used in SC matters to mean verisimilitude. Which is so prized, that spouses are being kept in the dark on the cost of it... And immersion, well, to immerse myself I go to the beach to swim.

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:This Mad Catz thing is hilarious. As predicted in my blog (I don't have a blog). When this dumb HOTAS was announced it was pointed out that not only was it butt ugly, overpriced and of questionable functionality but MadCatz were in an extremely fragile position, having said some time ago that their future success depended on sales of Rock Band 4 peripherals. At least no one had paid MadCatz for this in advance.

Beexoffel posted:I'm not a native speaker, but isn't "fidelity" the English word for being faithful to your spouse? yeah it means that but it also means being true to something in general (as in high-fidelity audio) It's not a word that gets a lot of use so seeing it used so regularly in the SC community gives me a weird feeling. Also I don't know what they're referring to with "fidelity" because space dogfighting isn't actually a thing that exists.

Why do these companies that have never had anything to do with gaming or gaming development before think they can just throw their money at it and be successful? I mean for fucks sake they chose to build it off of CryEngine, that's evidence enough they're a gaggle of morons.

I just had a great shower. I know it was great, because I had two new awesome ideas for Solar Plebian. Idea #1 is a weapon. Let me introduce the D3RK Smartbomb. It's the final word in any altercation, because it lets you loving finish. Idea #2 is a planet. Planet Awful. It's name betrays it's true nature as the most popular destination in the 'universe, due to it's low tax, and no voting system. Folks are more than welcome to fluff these out and run with them.

I seem to recall reading a news article a few years back that North Korean TV programs would actually film people with "improper haircuts" and shame them on national TV also by publishing their names and addresses. So clearly the news van in this should be covering coverage.
