It still boggles my mind (as does everything related to this ) that the backers aren't up in arms over Sandi She gets paid what I can only imagine is way more than a marketing exec would normally get paid , plus is allowed to earn a paycheque doing all sorts of other projects And unless she is working 22 hours a day there is no way she is putting in a full days work mon-fri at the cig office while filming her indie movies, tv shows, And varied other appearances

Hear Ye! Hear Ye! Let it be known across these lands, that I have - again - coined a new term for our dissenting poo poo-head brethren. I present to you: Shitizen Army Against Dissent (SAAD)

Sandi's abuse is very blatant. It takes real big balls to look at it and tell yourself that it's totally ok and I need to pledge more money to them.

All the vanity projects aside , when you're the VP of anything for a 100+ million dollar multi national corporation , you're kind of expected to give your all into the position . Sure time off , vacation , etc. But at the end of the day you're generally being paid very well to go that extra mile for the good of the company. And its investors (Or pledgers) Showing up for 'work' in the middle of the day eating snacks and obviously high or hung over, then peacing out before the camera is even off... she would have been sent to rehab and poo poo canned after week 3 in a real company

gently caress maybe Sandi is really the best actress ever It's all a long drawn out performance piece same as Jaquoin Phoenix did It gives Chris the with a heavy heart article he needs when he lets Sandi go ... the hardest thing I've ever had to so etc, Oh btw the project is now floundered because she was the glue holding it together

Eldragon posted:You're giving them way too much credit. Elite is a half dozen half-baked ideas cobbled together into a working game. SC is a legion of grandiose ideas cobbled together into a non-functional mess. The actual mechanics are still solid. The gameplay itself gets old quickly, I agree, but the mechanics are fun and have a lot of depth to them. There's just not a lot of reason to use them.

The Titanic posted:Some day somebody is going to have a post mortem on CIG and I'd be curious if they tried to do everything while cutting as many corners as possible and literally falling into every pit because the easy way is never the right way for any big project. Like trying to cut it all up into "easy bites" and nothing ties together because nobody had a planned out template to follow. this is both great and upsetting: i can't wait for the myriad of "what went wrong?" articles, but gosh i wish there were more people getting their scalpels out now

Quavers posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWJvNRJWOFo  This comment comes up a lot and always baffles me, and not just in the "Elite is actually delivering poo poo instead of simply talking about it" way or the "CIG doesn't actually say anything in their hundreds of videos," way. Like, what does it matter that Frontier may not be communicating with you quiiiiiite as much as CIG? Maybe it's because I'm an old, but I remember when the only time a developer communicated the status of a project is when they put it on the shelf at Babbage's. And with all the media coverage there is now, I can just go to MetaPolyEscKotIGNProSpot and read about upcoming games, maybe a look a little harder at a game that looks good and say, "Nice, I'll be sure to look for it when it releases on Junetember the tweenth" and then go about my day.

This is based on personal preference of course, but a once week written "blog" from a developer going over what they solved, what problems they have yet to solve and generally what they are working on is about the drat easiest to digest within 10 minutes. Don't need some super edited video production every other day of the week for that. Well actually I do, for the laugh factor...but I digress. God speed CIG. Continue on.

Meridian posted:What's the original context for this gif, like what the hell was he talking about?  http://imgur.com/isz3C20 This was shown like 3-4 years ago and backers apparently scrubbed it from their memory because realizing this was a staged cinematic with zero gameplay or coding involved they might realize everything else is like that too. This is kinda relevant to the drone manufacturer staging videos to sell their product. The entire crux of that lawsuit was that they were misrepresenting their product with misleading videos showing a state of completion and functionality they didn't have.
