I.N.R.I posted:If shes guilty of some kind of crime or fraud whatever then the way to get justice is report her to the authorities or take her to court or something. It's hilarious as it brutally undercuts her attempt to portray herself as this savvy business woman who's got two MBA's and is a marine biologist. All the while trotting out to the press grand tales of taking charge at clubs or events where her marketing skills saved the night or developed some shoes. The sad reality is she's a vain narcissistic snowflake who dreams of making it big in Hollywood as an actress and/or model. Sandi's sort of fortuitous to have found a niche where she can pretend she's a Hollywood something via Chris. She got where she is not out of actual talent but pure desperation. Her resumes pretty much scream "please give me something other than a shoot in a clothing magazine" and any casting agent worth their salt knows to pass over a candidate with a bunch of suspect unaccredited extras roles and padded with workshops. The work she has out there suggests she's not capable of applying herself to a role in any convincing fashion. However Sandi ignores this and expects this all to just change overnight and someone offers her a big break. Apparently this is to come via her Star Citizen "connections" giving her a role alongside Gillian Anderson and Gary Oldman where the magic of acting will rub off and the casting genie will appear with a role that "her friend Gary" suggested she'd be good in. And this isn't just Sandi, mind you, it's pretty endemic of thousands of wannabe's who just don't cut it. Many others simply glorify being an extra on a set and brag about the selfie with some lead at the wrap party as evidence of their "success" and they too hope that the adage of "who you know" will allow them to jump up the ladder. The slightly more canny failures usually form their own casting agencies where they patronize their client base through passive-agressive blogs that mock the frustrations of people who have signed up for them and get no work. Or they go the whole hog and operate as skimmers, working as middlemen and extorting extra fees via dodgy talent competitions and endless casting workshops. I wish I saved that .gif of her from something she did of her covering someone's eyes then slamming a laptop shut as it's the perfect thing to cut to with the tickle vid.

You know how we keep asking if these guys haven't played any games in the last 20 years based on how little they seem to know about what has and hasn't been done? I think it may be time to ask that question again…

WebDog posted:She's not doing anything illegal, unless at the time it was not in accordance to her visa obligations. She's going about it entirely the wrong way, because the tickle vids are the only time I've ever seen her acting like an actual, personable human. Perhaps she should scrap everything else, only market herself as that, and watch the offers start rolling in.

Chalks posted:On one hand it's good for hacks to be published while the game is in alpha. On the other hand this hack isn't something complex, it's just down to the fact that there's literally no hack protection at all. Even without this video, it would have been possible to come up with the advice of "hey, how about some hack protection?" The interesting question is what can CIG do about it, and what additional infrastructure and/or related costs need to be added server side to control this if any. I am assuming that nothing CIG can do client side would be enough?

The cheating angle is great because it will be so much harder to convince themselves that the poo poo game isn't poo poo, and CIG won't do anything about it.

You can't do much to stop client-side hacking without saddling your game with poo poo like GameGuard or worse, and those are ineffective and controversial. Of course CIG could use their sophisticated team to use serv.... bwahahahahahahahaha Scruffpuff fucked around with this message at 22:59 on Dec 30, 2016 |

TheAgent posted:holy poo poo "So erm, maybe the wall hack thing is erm, telling the server that there's no wall there" We sure would be lost without insights such as this. MedicineHut posted:The interesting question is what can CIG do about it, and what additional infrastructure and/or related costs need to be added server side to control this if any. I am assuming that nothing CIG can do client side would be enough? Anti hack code is really common in games like this so it's certainly something that they'd be able to implement. It's strange though. CIG are currently claiming that they're trying to optimise the netcode to make the game playable at a decent ping. That's something you'd only bother to do once the net code is finished. There's no point spending 6 months optimising the code only to add a whole load of anti-cheat checks to it that'll obviously add huge overhead. You'd have to do it all over again. Although cheats like this working in an alpha isn't unexpected, it either exposes the fact that CIG are lying about how close to completion their netcode is, or exposes the fact that they're not planning on including any anti-cheat in the netcode when they ship.

I don't get the appeal of cheating / griefing people outside of the game's established rules. Anyone can throw a chess board at their opponent. Even that is more understandable than cheating online because at least you're doing something and usually held accountable to some degree. As soon as I cheat in a game I lose all interest in it.

Even that is more understandable than cheating online because at least you're doing something and usually held accountable to some degree. You're not playing the game anymore. You're playing your own game, where winning is defined by the amount of tears and salt you can harvest. And the Star Citizen community is one of the most fertile, self-absorbed, insufferably entitled fields of griefable manchildren to ever grace all of gaming.

I'm not sure if this is an unattributed Reddit/RSI forums quote because metagaming can be more fun than going after the original defined win state depending on the game (SC would be one such game). Games with lots of cheat (codes) make it fun to explore the limitations of the game world and add replayability, imo. What's a rampage in GTA without going "all guns, max armor/health" etc before getting started? e: tax
