phosdex posted:I think its more hilarious that people who live far away from Germany spend the money on plane tickets, hotel, and transportation to what is essentially a couple hour power point presentation. These are people who spend $15,000 for a "completionist package" of ship jpegs which is not even complete! At least with spending money on airfare and hotels they are getting actual services. TheAgent posted:especially since the capitol can hold about 2000 people or so And the prior 2016 venue apparently holds 1500. I really think the number of high spending backers is highly overestimated by people. Which, of course, would mean there is something fishy going on with the tracker. Mangoose posted:Backers paying for plane tickets and hotels and poo poo doesn't help development. It's better if they catch the livestream and pledge that money instead. True, but the good con artist knows that it is a personal touch that is necessary to keep the marks happy and paying.

ITYOL 2017 I still have no idea what the difference between CIG and RSI is. When I'm talking poo poo to backers which of those entities should I indicate has no loving clue what they're doing besides milking whales for more money? I also noticed on the Star Citizen Facebook that there was a photo album called Sprout Social which it turns out is some social media delivery platform that our plucky multi-millionaires are using to spread the word.

Knowing amazing fidelity of CIG's physics, I'm going to guess that it'll begin jittering, spin up, fly off, and eventually T-pose into the planet.

You can tell this was archered because it uses the icons you find in a water bottle fill station at the airport. They are on the right side of the dispenser. Edit -- Here is a picture to show what I am talking about : IncredibleIgloo fucked around with this message at 17:59 on Jun 30, 2017 |

Taintrunner posted:This game has been in development for so long with no clear scope or gameplay loops that people are just making poo poo up. In 2012/13 people backed a space combat game that would allow you to explorer & pirate ships, the pirate game package had a docking ring that would cut through hull of enemy ships. They made a big thing of a capital ship boarding combat too with space combat involving up to 100 ships. In 2017 it appears boarding is out completely as they can't make two ships dock in Also the instance sizes are capped at 24 players and that is sure to drop considering they are already lowering the level of detail distances for all ships, presumably in an attempt to raise the terrible fps. Also foot combat is terrible as seen by Star Marine.

In Stimperial space, space drink regulation committee regulates all space alcohols to be prepared in under 30 seconds or be immediately disposed of. It is the Stimperor's edict and failing to follow it will be punished by the worst kind of hangover that intensifies etc etc you get the idea.

How do you shake or stir your drink, or is this supposed to be programmed into the machine already?

You can't fail missions in sc. You are a dude who paid $45 for the base package with no ship so you work on a flight serving drinks. If the 96% drink is not acceptable by a first class passenger player they will yell at you and report to the captain/owner of the ship who might fire you but you just go back to your home planet and mop floors until you get the chance to try again on another airline. During this time you have to eat at home and not spend so much money but you'll be back at it soon.

Also, a disturbing lack of crazy straws and umbrella toothpicks. Oh, you wanted lime or lemon slices with your drink? Well, the asshat pilot forgot to RESTOCK the aircraft, and we didn't pay for anyone to bring the supplies on the ship anyways!

Whenever he says CIG will do something they have to do the opposite or it gives him credibility. If he says Austin studio is shutting down, we have to keep it open with a skeleton crew. He says Star Marine is dead, we have to cobble together an arena deathmatch game from our lovely assets. He says Chris is going to issue an apology letter, we have to say everything is running smoothly and let the backers get pissed when everything is delayed again.
