I'm very proud of the regular posters in here for their tireless obsession which is entirely good and healthy and not in any way a long term health concern.

you see they've been working on the switch for over a year (so it's totally a planned thing and not a decision made quickly out of desperation) and it really only took a day and everything ported over perfectly (so none of the prior work was wasted and it's all done) all of this is completely true and in no way a bunch of lies to placate the masses

nnnotime posted:I apologize, then, Dr. Smart, as I did not understand your rationale. Based on the additional value you believe CIG payments for AWS will help contribute to the market valuation of your AMZN holdings, does that mean you would prefer Star Citizen to succeed? No. Again, you're not getting it. This is what my tweet said. It has nothing to do with gains or losses; but rather the fact that, regardless of how small (probably insignificant, given the amount of money AWS makes for Amazon) the CIG payments to AWS are, it's still money from Shitizens, which eventually go to my AMZ portfolio holdings. https://twitter.com/dsmart/status/812718683323793408

Did you know that CIG actually saved Amazon from bankruptcy? See, if it weren't for CIG, Amazon would never get a break in the gaming industry, and would still have to rely on cloud/hosting related services as their primary revenue stream, and would surely sink in the next 2 or 3 years. But now, they have a rope to cling to. I didn't know that, but i'm sure some citizen does.

I hope this game never stops development. It's just too entertaining and you can't write these kinds of plot twists. Truly, this is the best Parpmas we could ask for.

Derek, how come you were not able to sniff the Lumberyard fiasco? Never in your I told you so statements where you mentioned of an engine switch, or I am wrong?

This whole project is actually making me doubt whether I know how computers work. I mean I did a degree and worked in the field for 15 years but there are just so many people telling me that this kind of dev is normal and I am stupid for doubting it. I really need a super technical indepth breakdown of what happened here because I can't see a way where this isn't a massive step backwards for CIG. How is their branch supposed to merge with lumberjack? What exactly has happened with star engine? How can you merge a years worth of work with another distro in a couple of days?! What the gently caress has happened?

According to Ben Parry, CIG dev that loves to speculate in CIG's behalf over at the Frontier forums instead of posting at the RSI forums, there was nothing really to be merged. The base CryEngine code that Star Engine developed on is basically the same base Lumberyard code Star Citizen is supposedly now using. To all effects all a couple of CIG devs did in one day or two (Ben and Chris Roberts dixit) was basically copy / pasting all the CIG additions (64b positioning, procedural tech etc) over. Or rather copy pasting Lumberyard over. Same effect. You obviously have no loving idea about game development. MedicineHut fucked around with this message at 17:54 on Dec 25, 2016 |

This is what I mean. Thats kind of the only explanation thats been given as if its as simple as that. It's really really not. I get that they can both use the same libraries. Thats ok. How does "star engine" seamlessly work with Lumberyard though? If star engine was so completely different from cryengine, are they then using lumberyard as the new base and referencing their own libraries in some other branch? Are they just starting from scratch and using some other 2.6 branch and ditching their previous stuff? How can this be anything other than bullshit?!
