Still facepalming on the revisioning number scheme after getting over the other 10 sextillion fuckups on this aborted fetus of a game. Three point oh. But still pre-alpha.

So it is a pretty apt comparison between the plans for Star Citizen vs what is being delivered.

The Crobbler posted:Bishop, a very well-known and -liked admiral of the UEE—think of him like Maximus from Gladiator—won a battle [with the enemy Vanduul] at great personal loss; his daughter commanded one of the other ships in the fleet, and she sacrifices herself to save Bishop's ship. That's one of the reasons why Bishop is haunted.

The Crobbler posted:At the end of it there's this big last stand, and you get back to human space. But Bishop is still left, behind the Vanduul side, kind of like Commander Cain on the Pegasus in [classic] Battlestar Galactica. You come back a bit of a war hero, and you muster out, and potentially Bishop's still out there fighting the battle behind enemy lines. This revelation is before my time around the dumpster fire. No wonder nobody gives a crap about S42.

I know it's meaningless, but the iteration of actual version traditionally revolves around '1' being a release candidate, not the point where they realize they have nothing for a couple of years.

Is he somehow important to winning a war? 2. No one cares if parpgary lost his mind, it's war, ptsd happens. 3. Enemy are trying to shortcut to Earth? So what? Close the short cut or blockade it. How is one guy going to stop that? (heard the shortcut storyline before in about 100 other films) 4. Big last stand, great, no one saw that coming, so pointless trying to stop the enemy doing a shortcut if it's going to come down to a 'last stand' anyway then isn't it? 5. No one cares parpgary got left behind, it's not affected the plot/story at all anyway has it? 6. You're a war hero, you failed to prevent a last stand even though you plugged a short cut for an armarda of enemies all by yourself apparently, you suck, the story makes no sense, but you're a hero? 7. Parpgary is still out there fighting, even though you stopped the enemy? And retired? You fucker, you left the fleet commander out there all by himself even though the whole point of the game was to go get him, oh, I forgot no one cares, go collect your Aurora wankmobile and sit idle until SC somehow becomes a game somehow.

Just imagine if you were able to get all of the kids in your school to donate their allowance to your totally kickass future hideout And I mean what if you buy yourself a new nintendo or a trip to disney world, you deserve it for being visionary enough to imagine such an awesome clubhouse. Five years in and you have spent the entire time refilling and re-digging the same hole, but allowances are still coming in. Everything is fine. You'll worry about it after the next

Yes, I don't see why not. I got these sweet books about the rocket systems of the Apollo 11 from the book fair so it shouldn't be a problem to reverse engineer the systems... *1 month later Things are falling behind because I broke both my wrists jumping my bmx off a ramp made out of a wood plank and a cinderblock. I can still play the super nintendo I bought with the funds. The Super Nintendo will go into the clubhouse when it is complete but for now it is staying with me.

A lot of kids at school are starting to get really mean about the club house. They keep saying that it's not coming out just because it's taken so long. These kids are real jerks about it, so they must be wrong. They're just jealous because they aren't their own club houses won't be nearly as good. One guy has a finished club house but it doesn't even have rocket pods, and it smells like creosote. I'm writing down everything they say so when this is over and the clubhouse is done, we can show all the mean things they said to the Vice Principal and boy are they gonna get it then.
