The Titanic: Sep 15, 2016; Unsinkable

Oh I figured out how the honesty slider got into production when Chris Roberts oversees and approves everything: They used a word he's never seen before.

Sorry, it took my joke pipeline a little while to get developed. And somebody probably already said this so I'm just Archering it too.

You should never get any choice is how you view the game. The game is the designer's preference and they are showing their art the way they want. You wouldn't demand that the "Mona Lisa" be put on a 5' x 3'6" frame because the original is too small to view properly. That would be ridiculous.

Arguing that you shouldn't be able to adjust FOV in game.

This confirms that I actually had the original and scribbled some poo poo all over it 15 years ago then posted it to Britain when I was visiting France

Think my dogge ate it.

Well we all know that you're only allowed to view art in exactly the way the artist intended, at precisely the right angle and in the correct conditions and such

Stop spreading fud. Development in the current game engine, lumberyard, only started in the past months and look at how far they have come already.

What they gently caress did they do between oct 2012 when the kickstarter was and then? That makes no sense.

As I remember, from 2012-2014 the idea was that star citizen wouldn't even be a thing and SQ42 would be released by then in a much reduced form.

Then in late 2013 they decided to go with the current format, which means they started developing star citizen in 2014 Q1...

Something like that.

Zeta Gundam. Mainly because it literally has every single one of my favourite Mobile suits in it.

Just look at the beauty...

Fun fact. The Hyakushiki is so loving iconic, Sony made a gold PS2 with it's markings.
