Why would the super special evocati have their own forums and discord etc , when they're all on the spectrum anyways ? It's almost like none of this exists in a usable format and never will

The results are tabulated and they'll use those to streamline the builds so that the can get it out to PTU quicker. this sounds like the stupidest, most inconsistent, rear end-backwards way to test anything, so i guess it might be true

Fat Shat Sings posted:you know what this thread needs, another 60,000 posts about if star marine was technically ready by a specific date or the semantics of what "Released" and "in" mean in relation to it. I always felt it a strange argument to make. It doesn't matter if SM was in 2.6 or not - what matters is that we were teased for over a year with SM gameplay that was suddenly completely scrapped (we're talking weeks, not months...), then SM was cancelled, then Chris said it was already in the game, then it was announced that it was coming back, and then they hacked together the shittiest Minimum Viable Shooter CryMod that the inept team at CIG could hack out over a couple of months - and it has nothing to do with Star Citizen proper. It's so ridiculous that I'm not sure what the release was intended to prove. Does it prove that DS was wrong? Maybe, but it also proves that CR was wrong, so it's a wash. Does SM prove that we'll soon have a seamless PU where flight and FPS are both top quality? I'd say it's proof of the opposite. The only thing it proves to me is what I already knew - with over $130 million and over 300 people around the globe CIG can't make a good Crysis mod. Maybe it will inspire amateur designers around the world to take a crack at it (they can't do any worse) and those independent devs will create tons of great space shooters, thus saving PC gaming.

*movie trailer voiceover* From the mind of a creative genius, An adventure into the unknown cold greyness of space, Where dreams just keep going on and on and on, Where money is no object unless you want yours back, drat leavers, This winter, next winter, 2020? wait no, 2025, maybe? Be prepared to be taken for a ride, of your life, you'll be tickled pink, From the creative genius that almost ruined at least one company, who went on to er, erm, well, to not really do very much really, oh he sold a few cars, sports cars too, and loaned some media types some cash, Star Citizen, The Farce awakens. In the smell of lingering armpit sweat in the balding men only verse, there might be some rape but at least you can micromanage the ships vcr when it goes wrong, because vcr's do go wrong. Media reviews: 5/5 Would miss my bus and not make it to the theatre to see it again - R.Bailey, Daily Mail. 10/10 The selection of cake was breathtakingly eaten in one fell swoop by a vary large man who could stare at two people on opposite sides of the room at the same time - Sir Donalph Donneley Smidely Smithe esq, Daily Telegraph. 9/10 I'm glad my wife asked me to watch this work of genius, I've needed to drop a few pounds since Christmas and Mr Roberts certainly removed way more of those from me than I ever thought possible - Longrod Von Hugendong, Rearranging mortgage payments and fighting for custody of kids, Hertfordchestershire Hospital for the clinically retarded.

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:Also LOL at the idea of another level of Evocati in this open development quagmire. He's LYING. Blatantly. Which is why I wrote this. There is only ONE Evocati build. All other builds are standard builds. DEV (pushed by devs for testing) -> QA (internal QA) -> EVOCATI (usually the same build as QA) -> WIDE PU TEST (out of Evocati to larger group, usually subscribers) -> LIVE (public release) Anyone with access to Star Marine when 2.6 was first released on 11-30, did NOT have access to SM other than via hacking the files and ending up in solo play Think about this for a moment and you will see what's going on.
Simple. The files where. But it wasn't an official release of Star Marine. They enabled it later via a "Star Marine only" patch update due to all the noise that's been going on about it. Which is precisely what I said they would do. They did that about 48hrs later. I can't even believe that people are arguing about this still. This is what I stated back then, and I was 100% right. quote:Some Shitizens are still spreading false rumors that SM is in the build. It's not.

When TheAgent (whom MoMA hates with a passion normally reserved for Derek) posts information he often clarifies constantly that he can't 100% verify any of it, much of it is conflicting, etc. This is because he understands that not all sources are honest or without some measure of bias. MoMA (on the assumption he's not just lying because he's chronically afflicted with a case of brown tongue) implicitly trusts his sources 100% and is willing to make himself look like a complete twat because of it.

The results are tabulated and they'll use those to streamline the builds so that the can get it out to PTU quicker. I know some people are poking fun at this, but it's actually true. It's key to remember that CIG not only doesn't know what they're doing, but even if they did, the constant need for fresh funds means they need to offload their testing onto proven loyal backers. They can't manage it internally, and there's a distinct need to keep up appearances. That's the purpose of the Evocati group - aside from testing, it's also their job to ascertain if the build going public is clean enough to inspire more donations, or would instead invite further ridicule. Being loyal CIG backers they're not any good at it, so the builds that go out are still poo poo. But obviously not as poo poo as before Evocati got their hands on it, and the policy seems to be working well since they recently saw another influx of free, unearned money for basically nothing. Additionally, the existence of the Evocati group may piss off some longtime backers, but it has the opposite effect on just as many: the desire to prove themselves loyal as well, so that they can also become part of this exclusive group. Standard cult operating procedure, sadly - a secret inner circle you too can become part of if you just donate and believe enough.

The SC universe is 100 connected systems, right? Not 100 galaxies, millions of lightyears apart… because if it's not that, there won't be any quasars. And I don't think you'd want to explore one from closer than 10 galaxies away.

so in planet coaster this weekend i almost finished building this coaster station i'd been working on for days, then i got fixated on recreating a part of puerto pollo from the curse of monkey island so i built a few mostly finished buildings and tried to fit them around the coaster station and sculpt the terrain to match, but i didn't have enough room so i switched to sandbox mode and half-built some more buildings and sort of blocked a bridge and river, worked on a waterfall to the point where i was pretty sure i could finish it for reals later, and struggled with stair paths and terrain until i realized that if i wanted to make all of plunder isle in planet coaster, i'd have to completely rethink the overall plan and that meant locating puerto pollo far away from the park entrance so what i really should be doing is starting with the rides and theming near the entry and that's just a bunch of jungle next to a beach on plunder isle so i could do whatever i wanted really so i started on that so now i have a bunch of half-baked prototypes and proofs of concept to show for all the time i've spent (which is ample) i'm figuratively cloud imperium games

I mean all those stages are for testing a buggy game. And regardless of the amount of testing its always broken in most dumbest ways. your pre-alpha game has a alpha that is in pre-alpha stage and even that is split in 2 pre-pre-alphas Thats just messed up.

Here's a good challenge for anyone who wants it, find something, anything that CR himself, with his own greasy mitts, has drawn, painted, written that has real artistic merit that wasn't done by one of his employees.
