I thought it was just a minor email in passing to a third party, nothing nearly as direct as that I'd hope that anyone with some sense would have long stopped paying attention to this thread, especially when it's hostile to them in so many ways. But Derek still posts here so who knows?!?!

SomethingJones posted:Bribase, his arms wide, posting on the refund sub that Behaviour were responsible for the planetary work but severed their contract with CIG before the work was complete - leading to CIG having to do it in-house therefore holding up 3.0. Its true but it has little to do with why 3.0 isn't out, as they were just doing environment work. And that really isn't in the top 10 of why shits hosed right now. They didn't break their contract they just didn't renew it.

Are they trying to push screenshots of empty ships populating an area, as proof that there are more than 6 people in a single instance?

They claim that it was 60 actual players in fighter ships. gently caress knows if its real but after what we saw at Citcon its likely they made some major breakthroughs. Itd be wrong of us to assert its fake given how wrong we have been

Sometimes I feel bad I have such a strong memory for the specifics of Star Citizen, but I guess other people get really into Sports or something (5 Months ago) TheAgent posted:also behavior interactive, which also has been working with turbulent for a long loving time, were also partnered with star citizen There are other references to other contractors being used by CIG. Some others about how the work is never good enough for Chris Roberts so he fires them and decides his company can do better. It's just spread out over a billion posts and I'm too lazy to look for anything else relevant.

Does Star Citizen get the award, not for the game being well overdue, but a loving iteration patch being overdue? Surely no one in the history of making videogames has had a PATCH this overdue?

Thoatse posted:There wasn't always heavy censorship, at least not obvious stuff at first. IIRC it wasn't until sometime between the LTI Uprisings and when Arena Commando released and the great Flight Model Wars began. At first they just katamari'd posts they didn't like from a really wide range of barely related poo poo, making those subjects too hard to meaningfully follow (especially without being able to tell where posts/threads originated once spliced in) with their fast and loose qualifiers. It was well contained from normal sight since most folks avoided the forum mosh pits since it was still a hopeful time and circlejerking still didn't require erection enhancements for a lot of the og's, but eventually the waters of discontent started overflowing the levees of the toxic waste pits they were consigned to. You bring back all the cozy memories. By the way, I had some real  moments with Truga back in those days. Truga I think you are a great poster and I love your humor. Please don't take it bad that I raged at you in some stupid mouse or joystick discussion for a vaporware game.

VictorianQueerLit posted:Sometimes I feel bad I have such a strong memory for the specifics of Star Citizen, but I guess other people get really into Sports or something Thanks for digging that out, I missed that completely. So Behaviour got officially blamed for 3.0 being a year late, does anyone remember if CR actually said anything along the same lines about the Ilfonic guys? It's interesting that the Ilfonic stuff was shown, it actually looked cool as gently caress and that was the moment I genuinely thought to myself 'poo poo, CIG are getting their act together here'. Imagine if all of CIG's videos had to be watermarked with the name of the studio which created it, in the spirit of open and transparent development.

The Titanic posted:This is another perfect example to showcase the fact they don’t have the talent to actually show game progress, so they fake it with non-programming stuff to give off the guise of progress. You should watch them a bit if you have the slightest interest in languages. Not only is Xi'an a silly mix of Mandarin and Korean but it is basically further over-complicated for no reason. There are multiple versions of "yes" and "no" that are there for no reason whatsoever. (Besides making it even more derivative of the actual languages it's aping) Also, two different ways to ask where the toilet is, because that is really loving important

It's utterly pointless, useless, worthless, dull, boring, not something anyone needs to add to a computer game. Do 'citizens' actually think this is a feature worthy of having money thrown at it, rather than some smidgen of actual playable gameplay?

This is a quality post. I have these very same thoughts when I see things like this. It has nothing to do with a game at all. Chris "Hollywood" Roberts couldn't have thought of loving subtitles instead? This is why I have just no sympathy at all for any of these spergs. Spend more I say. And while you're at it, go hock your family's heirlooms to go buy some more. You deserve everything that is coming your way for believing in utter tripe like this.

It is a thing because there is no game. They can't make progress on the engine, the networking, the gameplay, the performance, and have no idea what any of the game systems are or will be. Therefore motion capture, "lore", alien "languages", cityscapes, etc. forge ahead full speed because that makes it look like something is getting done. We've decided on which brands of instruments the band on this cruise ship will be playing, which songs, and what will be the dessert toppings on the food served at dinnertime. We just need to design, engineer, and build the boat and we're good to go. Weeks not months!

You might be able to use that information to beat them to a score, and get the drop on them in a deep space heist. You see, the subsumption AIs will audibly carry on foreign language conversations with each other, just within earshot, at the bars you're all going to be hanging out at.

Behavior website posted:Star Citizen AFAIK Behavior never had anything to do with their procgen tech. That's all "in-house" and always was intended to be, according to the stretch goal that unlocked it. Why anyone would assume otherwise is beyond me. $41M stretch goal text, for context: quote:Procedural Generation R&D Team – This stretch goal will allocate funding for Cloud Imperium to develop procedural generation technology for future iterations of Star Citizen. Advanced procedural generation will be necessary for creating entire planets worth of exploration and development content. A special strike team of procedural generation-oriented developers will be assembled to make this technology a reality.

So doing a little light browsing, I found the California Secretary of State business search site https://businesssearch.sos.ca.gov/ . Looking at the listing for Roberts Space Industries, a Delaware corporation (not unusual) I noticed that they typically file their required statements of information late. Again not unusual for them. But looking at the listings for Gemini 42 Productions LLC and Gemini 42 Entertainment LLC, both of which are located at the same address of RSI, something seemed odd. They both filed the required Statement of Information on 8/4/17 - submitted by Steven Kam (Toast). The unusual thing is that another Statement of Information for Gemini 42 Entertainment was filed on 9/29/17 - this time by Karen Oto, Controller. Since these are only supposed to be filed every two years or upon a material change of the information, I wonder what it all means. I am no lawyer, but this sort of thing is interesting to me. Any insights?

lmao, Jester using an alt account to advertise black market services on the refunds subreddit. Now I've seen it all. Exhibit A: this post by one Ivan_SC advertising black market poo poo on /refunds  Exhibit B: Jester responding to comments in that thread with comments clearly written as "Ivan" lol. These comments don't exist because as soon as he realized the issue he deleted them, but since he's flagged for manual comment approval they're still in the modmail. Whoops!
