There hasn't been a single game that comes close to the open development of Star Citizen. As long as the criteria is that it's a PC game. Set in space. Named Star Citizen. edit for cat code:

Lazrin posted:you could also man up and honor your promise to contribute to the effort to make a video game. You know promises like CIG would release SQ42 by the end of 2014? That milestone was to be important for a few reasons: 1) It would validate CIG as a game developer 2) Allow CIG to function as a normal company, using the sales from their highly successful game to support development instead of crowdfunding. I know , I know--more money lead to scope creep because backers wanted it... Except. Hold on a second. How did scope creep affect Squadron 42? Squadron 42 has had nothing added, just promises from Kickstarter removed. So who hasn't manned up? Either your buddies at CIG have a a finished build for Sq42 just sitting there and have decided not to release because whyu bother when you are getting $3million a month for nothing. Or the project lacks competence, direction, and any ability to produce a working game. For example--the monthly content patch model CIG announced in February. Five months--two patches. Last but not least. Never seen the Red Cross collect VAT on a donation. CIG is selling pre-orders. Doesn't matter what CIG likes to pretend it is. When a company fails to deliver the product they said they would--the normal reaction from normal people is: "Give me back my money." It is not too late for you. Go get your money back.

Well, the paywall's up and I've finally decided to stop freeloading. Also, Shitizens keep shilling on r/pcmasterrace and I figured I'd let know his videos are very helpful in combating that particular annoyance. Finally, I don't know if any of you are aware of the site Popehat, but this excerpt from a series about tracking down a scammer seemed relevant: "I have prosecuted, and defended, and sued or represented civilly, drug dealers and bank robbers and child molesters and child porn possessors and extremists and members of a designated terrorist organization. In my experience, nobody is as chilling as a career con man. The level of sociopathy — the extent to which everyone is merely an object to be manipulated — is difficult to grasp. So is the sheer relentlessness and remorselessness of the conduct. Imagine if the terminator was programmed to defraud you rather than kill you. There's no stopping or curing or rehabilitating such people — there's only notifying law enforcement, helping past victims, and trying to warn future victims." from https://popehat.com/2011/10/04/anatomy-of-a-scam-investigation-chapter-eight/

Tippis posted:Wasn't there a presentation posted in this thread about how you could (weakly) predict the outcome of a game launch by what kind of audience and community it attracted? Harbingers of Failure posted:The authors identify customers, termed “Harbingers of failure,” who systematically purchase new products that flop. Their early adoption of a new product is a strong signal that a product will fail—the more they buy, the less likely the product will succeed. Firms can identify these customers through past purchases of either new products that failed or existing products that few other customers purchase. The authors discuss how these insights can be readily incorporated into the new product development process. The findings challenge the conventional wisdom that positive customer feedback is always a signal of future success. Ars Technica Write-up posted:A central premise in marketing seems so obvious that it doesn’t even bear scrutiny: if customers give you positive feedback on your product, that’s good. And if those people buy the product repeatedly, that's even better.

ManofManyAliases posted:I didn't. I just cannot speak of it. Anyway, hope you're all doing well. Pick a lane, commando. Either you are not affiliated in any way with CIG, RSI, any of its subsidiaries or contractors or vendors, etc., or you have vast insider knowledge that you are forbidden to reveal because of NDAs or other legally binding commitments. There is no way both of those things can be true, so pick one. They're pretty much equally boring, but not as boring as the yo-yoing.

Lazrin posted:you could also man up and honor your promise to contribute . Hey Lazrin You claim you came on here for reasonable discourse. If that's what you want then fire away . From what I have read of your posting you are not on here to engage or cause offense. You seem to want to defend star citizen. I can tell you some things for absolute 100% certain. 1) sq42 will not be out in 2016 2) They have built a set for Mark hamill and a Derek called it before it was public knowledge. 3) Derek indicated that John Dadley was leaving CIG despite no online evidence. A fact that Mr Dadly himself inadvertently corroborated. 4) a lot of info is confirmed and discussed on TCE among high level pro game devs including guys from CIG. You will never ever gain access to this forum but a lot is discussed there and there is no one with any dev experience at all that can see this game coming out as promised. 5) the AI and the netcode are broken currently. As in completely. 6) yes they do have some nice procedural planets stuff. This is not what was published in the German magazine however. Those images are from modelled test world's. 7) internally people are extremely worried about sq42 for multiple reasons. There is not a working vertical slice yet. 8) The hours of mocap data that have been shot don't work in game yet. Not one minute. The script is truly terrible. Even die hard cultists will cringe whilst watching this stuff through their fingers. 9) lots more but you probably don't believe any of what I have highlighted above and most likely think I'm a bitter ex qa monkey or just a straight out bullshitter. Should you wish to learn more discourse is always better than slanging matches or abuse. Somebody fucked around with this message at 03:40 on Jul 26, 2016 |
