I thought this one was supposed to be Sandi.

I ask again why are all their limbs out of proportion. Look at hammils hands. And not Sandi beside him. Her arm is like 50 feet long

Besides it looks like most of them were grabbed and posed from a non related photo shoot, because I'm sure by now half the a list talent are not returning Chris's phone calls

That scene is just a way to cram 5-10 million dollars worth of cheques into one room

Even if everything they showed worked flawlessly from a technical standpoint (lol) the game would still be incredibly tedious and boring.

Also, everything they are showing is the same regurgitated Wing Commander poo poo that Crobbles has been doing forever. His lack of imagination is embarrassing.

Obviously the dudes at :reddit: loved the ever-living gently caress of the stream. It rekindled their faith and so on but even they noticed the horrible frame rate. But don't worry, because....



Yes! It's encoding errors, obviously! It couldn't possibly have anything to do with the horrible frame rate everyone goes through if they try to actually play the 3.0 jesus patch right now, right? That's just impossible!

The constant walking through hallways was unbearable. Also, the inner thoughts.

Why don't the inner thoughts and the dialogue match? Are they trying for a fidelitous experience of some kind of cognitive dysfunction?

Plus, let's say I, a lady, am playing as Lieutenant Lieutenant. Why do I have a dude voice whispering in my head?

I absolutely love that Reddit literally can't see the big picture: it's been half a decade and they've only just barely managed to release a buggy, borderline-broken single-mission demo, and it took a one year (and one day) delay just to deliver that.

Fawn over the sound design all you want, guys. Squadron 42 is going to be an abysmal failure on par with Colonial Marines, and there's no amount of belief that can save it.

But it's just like real life !! Hallways exist in real life and so does mopping. And pooping and waiting for your space bus to goto work and oh gently caress I'm going to be late I better call the boss on my space phone

I didn't watch most of that after Chris got done flying across 3 different countries in the same loving outfit , did the ai really just stand there and get shot just like the worm is not a joke demo ?

well the guy span around wildly in the ship and shot lasers at some distant numbers until he eventually stopped, then killed some perfectly stationary slavers on a planet with 50 feet of atmosphere and a debris belt you could hit your head on. all the guns sounded identical and one crouching man did a cartwheel as he died

There's a little "Lieutenant Decisions" meter on the bottom of the screen and when it fills up you get treated to a beautifully rendered cinematic of a grenade rolling into your wankpod in the middle of the night.

“I’m actually sort of bummed by the current design philosophy where there’s no penalty for not doing particularly well,” Roberts lamented. “In a lot of games I play – especially the console ones – I don’t play particularly smart, because when I respawn, I’m like a second away from where I died. So I go in guns blazing and basically bully my way through the story. I really like [console-only Dark Souls predecessor] Demon’s Souls, though. It was a combination of the most frustrating and rewarding game I’ve played in a long time.”

I thought you said the presentation was delayed because of the bad performance and camera glitches from the latest patch ?

Come on man, a little coherency before you claim "I was right". Is it pre-recorded ( in which case the latest patch shouldn't matter ) or is it a live demo affected by the latest patch ? Or are you going to pretend they're re-recording everything in the last 24h ?

It would help if you were actually keeping track of the sequence of events and my postings.

If you were, you would know that the excerpt you posted, preceded the performance issue with the 3.0 build.

The US Government is paying for tanks to be manufactured that the military has directly said they don't want, don't need, and can't even use. They're basically negative value tanks. Beat that.
