there are still alot of citizens hoping beyond hope that CIG actually announces 3.0 is going to be delayed rather than just waiting until the last possible moment and saying "welp". The fanbase is pleading with CIG to not be just the absolute worst but I don't think they've convinced CIG yet for some reason.

AP posted:Just like the Aurora LX in 2013 Some fun quotes from that article. quote:Everyone has given more than enough. This is purely a “for the fun” sale / event to hopefully push our funding along. quote:Star Citizen is going to cost approximately $20M to make. We have this covered already between the incredible funding we’ve received from you and the commitments from investors. It's the ship you start with but it's not a "Starter ship", it's the cheapest ship int eh game, but it's not a "Starter ship". "Starter ship 2.0" folks. quote:The Aurora is indicative of what we are looking to achieve in terms of detail and immersion in the final game, and while it is the cheapest player ship available it is by no means a “Starter ship”.

tuo posted:Didn't Sandi at one point say they are expecting a customer base of around 10 million gamers for SQ42, or was that some stupid shitizen? chris and co are forecasting a very, very bright outlook on their game see below Chris Roberts posted:I think people this early maybe represent five to ten percent of the total audience. Just based on the ratio of the people who liked Wing Commander... the number of backers in Germany is like 14 or 15 thousand. We sold 400,000 units of Wing Commander III in Germany alone, and that's assuming no market expansion from 1994 or 1995. I think there is. If you look at FTL, and FTL is difficult because it's a very small game, it did much more than 10x in the number of actual sales compared to the number of backers they had. They had like 10,000 backers and did two or three hundred thousand in sales. interview here I've posted about this before, but roberts really believes this will be a billion+, not million, dollar franchise

ManofManyAliases posted:No - most backers do not believe 3.0 is coming in December (at least from what the current sentiment is on Reddit). So that means that you're part of a community where, incredibly, "some" people still actually believe that 3.0 will be out in December. That's amazing.

TheAgent posted:I've posted about this before, but roberts really believes this will be a billion+, not million, dollar franchise They are using the same logic as Batgirl did, using WOW's subscription history as some kind of bar that they will meet and or exceed. it is pure lunacy. Wow was a success because it appealed to both casuals and hardcore at PVE as well as PVP with a game that was first and foremost fun. But easy on the PC to run. And easy on the eye. CiG put out some art that I do actually like. But their game play clips are just hard to look at, the color and lighting is just poo poo. And well I see no fun in their game. Even Eve Online has more pleasing space than this game. The learning curve is worse than anything else out there. With controls schemes that are overly complicated for no "fun" return. It runs on poo poo on even the best most expensive hardware out there. I would really like to see it run on the min specs they published back in 2013.

What would a publisher think about those numbers? you had a lot of people in at low or sub $100 tiers when the game was first announced but the majority of cash that's coming in now are from people buying $200 to $1,000+ DLC, for an unreleased game with no real release date, with no timeframe on the DLC and no gameplay to speak of, with little to no discussions of the mechanics of that DLC or core gameplay of the base game SC is a really interesting study if you're into business at all. it's helped me quite a lot in several ways, from raising the price of services at my company to remembering to treat employees with dignity and respect. there's a whole lot I can get into but it gets all pretty effort and its early and blizzcon is on soon

Lladre posted:I was watching a video of a guy testing some new fanless/pumpless/noiseless case released just last week. Well, the CryEngine was created to not only fully use current systems but also next gen hardware is sometimes not enough to use it. That way you ensure that the graphics are state of the art even in the future and it looks really nice. The downsides are clear: nobody really upgrades their hardware all the time so most people dont get to run it properly. And the second point is, the flagship game of the engine, crysis 1-3, were really pretty (and the engine ensures pretty screenshots during production for PR ) but lacked gameplay-wise. So if you had the choice to play a shooter that might not really run on your hardware or the newest cod which will, it´s pretty clear what you buy. I mean there are reasons why the guys from Crytek have gone bancrupt and their engine is barely used for other games and the people choose to use Unity or Unreal.

alphabettitouretti posted:The Star Citizen design mantra is "more pointy bits". You may think you've got a nice jpeg, but it's not CIG standard until you've covered it in superfluous pointy bits. Star Citizen's mantra is "make it like ww2 but in space. And future-y" Insider sources claim that, during design meetings, Chris will sometimes spitball ideas after having consulted a book about a Jane(?) And her aircraft/weapons 194X - 194X. If he wants to add futuristic stuff,he delves deep into the 195X or even the 196X titles!

ManofManyAliases posted:2.6 is coming this year. I really doubt we'll see Star Marine in 2016, they released 2.0 as a broken mess though and 2.5 is still a broken mess, so I hope I'm wrong just for the comedy of watching the reaction to it.
