Super hornet was $180 I think, they had to price this below so people couldn't upgrade to it. New cash only please.

I mean, they get flak for t-posing out and not having adequate stances and animation mixes on their rigs, but when they make an animation to add fluidity to their characters, they get flak as well.

Is it bad that they have one artist/designer working on animations while someone else works on other tasks? Having multiple roles is a good thing, no? Isn't that how it works?

You're not buying ships stupid goonie you're pledging to support the most ambitious game ever.

If you can't afford a ship, even pledging for a ship skin would contribute a lot. If you can't afford that, what are you playing on? Your phone??

They've never got flak for that and what has T posing got to do with it? T posing is always funny, the variety of their animations has always been OK, it's the comedic way in which everything is broken that causes the comments

Also you should consider being more helpful to Star Citizen by joining the Star Marine player queue, WTF only played Hellion because he got tired waiting for enough players to join so a Star Marine match could start.

WTF has put something like 11 or 13k into Star Citizen (I forget) it's pretty poor form that he can't even play it days after a new patch. Well I guess he could play the PU but when he tried that the ship summoning panels didn't work.

I think the idea, now work with me here, is that after six years and $143,000,000 there should be a game. Call me crazy but fluff like streamlining NPCs leaning on things should be about #1,000 on the to-do list behind the tens of millions of dollars they've spent on motion capture.

Neither of which should have been done first.

1. How many players can there be on one server?
There will be multiple open world servers to handle a limited number of players on each one. For now we plan to have around 100 or more players per server.

Far more of a MMO than Star Citizen if they achieve even half that.

This one looks dumb as hell. This is probably their worst one to date. It's like a flatbread ship with dinky afterthought wings that've been in a curling iron.

Have they run out of better ideas to steal from already? Kind of reminds me of old battletech aerospace fighters.

stuff like NPC leaning on things should have been completed years ago. How does no one with thousands "invested" in this not go "wtf you are working on this now?!?" when she tweets poo poo like this.

It gets worse the longer you look at it, check out the turret guns. They look about as much use as tits on a fish.

It's like they hired Mr Magoo as the friggin gunner after he's had a few whiskeys or BL is using the inbuilt helmet 'eye tracking' for targetting.

(It's more like their art department couldn't give a poo poo anymore and are just throwing lots of poo poo at the wall in the hope that some of it sticks)

Seriously, if you never get the animations to work right, the number of people is irrelevant.

So, how many people should it take for properly fidelitous t-posing, eh?

So the background music on ATV is obnoxiously loud and uneven. Its clear no one watched the final edit.

quote:

I cant agree with this. As a video guy every week there is something small that can be corrected from the audio to the brightness or contrast. The LUTs are not consistent across the footage nor attempted to be normalized. If they film this on Monday or Tuesday and release on Thursday, there should be more than enough time to properly edit the raw footage with the machines they have there.
If they watched it through after editing, they or that editior should have and more than likely would have caught the issue.
Edit: EVEN if you werent listening, your audio level bars would show you the db that they're running at on the separate tracks and you would have known to lower it down.
