moma lemme tell you a story

there was this absolute goddess of a girl that used to work at the bar I went to all the time

she went out on a date with a very handsome, successful dude who drove a tesla and had a huge house and made a shitload of money and looked great on paper

for their first date he took her out to help him shop for pocket squares at tom ford

she didn't give him a second date and ended up with a guy that wore star wars tshirts and flip flops (well rainbows so thats somethin I guess)

don't be the tom ford first date dude moma

No matter if it is in 2.6 or not, can we all agree its a poor showing for a FPS, show no integration with the PU and just exist to dilute the playerbase further ?

If it just exist to placate backers and D_Smart without plan to integrate it in SC then this is a waste of funds, as nobody needed a "prrof of concept" of doing a FPS in a FPS engine.

If its jut a stepping stone for further integration in the PU, then we have not progressed on critical game systems (Death of a spaceman, healing, gadgets, stealth) and just added to enginering debt.

Either way its more problems than progress.

That's the part all of us know, and all the parts that Moma and the like will refuse to answer-because yeah ok sure it exists. I'm willing to take Moma's word only because it's hilarious. Even though it exists, it shows that this is as loving far as they've gotten in the years they have had to develop. That means if this game for some ungodly reason were to be continually financed and not bottom out due to Chris Robert's idiocy, it would come out in like 2050, by which time no one will give a poo poo. Or, which is what is going to happen, it will just fall apart and never come out. In which case these "milestones" are not celebrations but rather warning signs that this is all sinking.

This is an appropriate description of what is going on.

When they are finally powered up (sometime next june after the re-runs) then they will realize an embarrassing slapfight over the terminology used to describe something that lasts forever is a bad idea and settle their differences.

That's the overriding vibe you get after spending more than a few minutes in the game, it's achingly boring and generic. They gave a visionary $130 million and he came up with a shitter Hard Reset somehow. The previews of any new stuff is just them stealing from Star Wars, Dune, loving top Gear, so the future looks worse, and I never thought as I stood in a generic corridor as a generic white dude that that was even possible

Okay, why is the build called Evocati? It bothers me.

It's not. The Evocati refer to the backers who have signed a NDA and are permitted early access to builds as a result of their steadfast dedication to reporting bugs. Once something leaves Evocati it goes to the PTU, which is for backers who play enough for CIG to notice (or I think are subscribers). Once the build leaves PTU it goes out to everyone so that they too can experience the wonders of a pre-alpha build.

This is open development.

The gameplay shown isn't in Around the Verse, and yes there's a chat box up there or something, but to me it's now more possible this is extra footage filmed for Around the Verse as the UI seems to match better than the offline Star Marine. Which given the choices are Derek/TheAgent are wrong or CIG or some hardcore Citizen faked it, and the logo definitely has been shown on Around the Verse...

INN (recursive) RELAY_SC may have received raw footage to do their lovely transsubstantiation or whatever they do

The chart is also clearly wrong on a number of known topics. for example: VR support has been in since the Hangar module yet the chart claims this isn't the case. Did you make this Derek?

VR has never worked right in the hangar module. Even back in the beginning years ago it worked really half rear end, barely, then they pulled that half rear end support. I tried it out on my DK1 and DK2 back then.

SM is very much alive and well in the 2.6 build and is playable (more than just a 4v4 by the way). It runs at 70-90 fps on a mid-range machine and hangars now load fully in less than 5 seconds. Caterpillar is amazing - very functional. It's pretty much all cargo right now and open from the sides. All modular. Great visibility.

No. You won't get any proof or evidence from me. This series of NDA is extremely strict. You will very likely not see any leaks from evocati on this on reddit either. But, if screens/vids do eventually leak, feel free to reference this post.
The screenies will leak in two weeks. And I guess the Evocati in this round need to be able to visit the studio--seems like LAN play is the only thing working. My source, PFA, confirms.

It's the testing group that's called Evocati. Here is a short primer which I wrote about that

And I covered it here in a blog I wrote this past April.

Basically, despite the fact that all backers are in fact entitled to the builds, they decided to segregate them. Then they also started using paid subscriptions to distribute pre-release builds.

I love seeing this. Pretty sure I started the blood stream stuff. :) It was a fun troll to explain the low fps and why pbgaz could walk outside in his underwear. (The poly count on billions upon billions of molecules was dragging down the FPS and those molecules were clipping through the walls, making space breathable.)

CIG has the best developers since they were little kids. Heck, I think most still are.
