It's almost as if Star Citizen streamers have some other incentive to stream the game besides their own wishes

Looks like one ship has landed on top of another, thus giving us CIG's trademark "gently caress knows which end is the front" look.

I've made the same face around two hours into a meeting when someone asks if really obvious thing that we started the meeting with had been done.

Then I go play race the sun for fifteen minutes.

In my son's social sciences class they got asked to give examples of out-of-the-ordinary internet communities for study (and the teacher asked them to please not pick 4chan). As the good boy he is, he mentions "the fans of that scam game, Star Citizen", which was immediately met by "that's not a scam! what proof do you have?" from someone in his class. Turns out he's got a cultist in his high school class. I'm prepping him to mention Derek Smart in any remotely relevant context. This could be good.

CIG is doing something that nobody has ever even attempted before. So what you’re seeing is them failing spectacularly in real-time, and learning the hard way why nobody tries to make a universe replacement sim.

How would the dog wear goggles and even more than that, who makes the goggles?


its still amazing to me how they're allocating the limited system resources they have to make this huge scope game

any large scale game fakes absolutely as much as it can in the back end to make savings. but star citizen is marrying fakery on the stuff people actually want to be real (like the guns) with weirdly intensive simulation on stuff that is dumb. it wants to be dwarf fortress with crysis graphics, but dwarf fortress still slows to a crawl when poo poo gets hectic even as an ascii game. granted a lot of that is because of the spaghetti code its made from, but lol if star citizen is any different.

dwarf fortress is a great example of a very intense simulation game that is birthed from the brain of one deranged man. the difference is that the df guy made the game before seeking peoples money, and actually focuses on making the game instead of making movies in loving Poser or whatever

Order "Thai hot" take out and enjoy your
brutal take out :smug:

My wife and I routinely order Thai/Indian hot and one night at our favorite Thai place we did it and whoever was in the kitchen either didn't know what he was doing or decided he was going to kill whitey because it was some of the hottest poo poo we ever ate. My wife ordered pumpkin curry (it was october and it was a special) and it was so hot that she couldn't eat it and she has way more heat tolerance than me. We brought it home and she tried thinning it with more rice, with coconut milk, with mashed potato, all kinds of poo poo. And it was never reduced to an edible state.

It wasn't just us being wimps because we overheard other people in the restaurant talking about how hot everything was. The next time we went back there everything was normal again.

Really good Thai food but that night was like whoa :stare:
