Ursine Catastrophe posted:So are people who have bought ships but don't have a subscription now relegated to F2P tier and can't fly the ships they own? Because Why should that be a problem? They were not buying ships to fly, they were just pledging to support the game coming out, after all. CIG owes them nothing.

also remember when CIG was like "yeah you don't need subs for this, people buying the single player game will pay for the server upkeep"  F2P is the inevitable endpoint of every MMO that didn't have a sub fee but the backer tears are going to be

Combat Theory posted:Ahh sorry my phone auto corrected that. I saw them I think... 3 times? Reise Reise, best of Tour (which was absolutely kick rear end) and at WOA where I was way too drunk to remember the details. Reise Reise was the tour I met Combichrist as Vorband, and was the second time I went to Rammstein....ah, the memories....just awesome! I also only learned from fans why they changed their name. It was an awesome week, with Rammstein and In Extremo playing in Mannheim within a week or so.... BTW: obviously, I'm from the Mannheim-region in Germany, so much for doxxing myself

a F2P tier that doesn't allow you to fly ships in a space game is definitely going to be something. That's like not being allowed to shoot guns in a F2P FPS game.

Codezombie posted:Lord no, coroutines still run on the same core as the main thread, and at best are time slicing as co-routines block the main thread (and vise-versa) Good luck, and keep us/me posted about your progress. Thread.Task is definitely tricky since Unity API isn't thread-safe, but it's been done before. I'm adding planetary landings to Solar Plebeian, so we may be able to share notes.

I'm adding planetary landings to Solar Plebeian, so we may be able to share notes. I'm also interested in this. My experience is that the only things you can use outside of the main thread regarding Unity API is stuff that is completely decoupled from rendering. And even then, you are in for quite some surprises, and I basically gave up on most of the things I tried. Then again, I only use Unity for "fun projects" where I make it quite clear that I am not a professional game developer, and I don't have the time nor experience to delve too deep into it. The only stuff I do multi-threaded in the Unity projects I have is outside of Unity API.

Better get manning those turrets... I dunno, TheAgent's not the most reliable source. Assuming good faith on his part and the part of the leaker, CIG seems pretty clearly broken up into internal fiefdoms. The higher management tiers clearly don't speak to peons. Even if this is legit it's possibly the work of someone who'll be overruled, someone who's run the numbers and realised they'll have to do something to pay the server costs, someone pondering alternative funding methods since the sale isn't going too great... Even if this is legit, there are many many ways it couldn't happen. I'd love to reap the incredible harvest of backer tears from this too, but I won't get my hopes up just yet.

The moment CIG does this, not only does their entire TOS go up in flames but also expect to see formal charges brought up against them. This is not a simple "things change in development" thing to be hand waved away. This is bait and switch my dude and that poo poo is illegal. Chris's kickstarter sales pitch was hung on a point of no subscription fees. It could be argued that it was a valid reason behind its success in funding. But it is not something that he can just ignore without opening the floodgates for liability.
