Spiderdrake posted:Anyway according to the wiki the carrier in SQ42 is a 28 man craft that can carry no more than three single seat fighter craft. Granted, this likely introduces a fourth point of dissonance where SQ42 doesn't agree with Star Citizen's universe... Most of CIG's massive, throbbing incompetence barely gets a blink from me but the fact that the first checklist of the game "Is it more epic in scope than Wing Commander" can't even get off the launch pad just makes me want to rave like a lunatic. "there is no limit to how low your FPS can be"  I love the procgen asteroids up the arse.

https://clips.twitch.tv/RealRudePistachioAliens Sound Warning. So after picking up a box on a planet and having my Avenger fly off on it's own......which I eventually was able to stop by raising the landing gear, only to have the game freeze and lose all input, I restarted. Luckily for me I have a 350R in my hangar, so even though a normal peasant would have to wait 25 minutes for their Avenger to come back because the game crashed, I didn't. After taking my 350R out for a spin, I noticed that it was on full throttle autocruise. I hit the key to zero the throttle.......and it just kept going. Only by holding down the spacebrake was I able to cease it's attempt to drive me endlessly off into the void. So I thought to myself "Oh.....I'll just get out of the seat, that should reset this mess."

FailureToReport posted:https://clips.twitch.tv/RealRudePistachioAliens I think you, and everyone else playing 3.0, are missing some very obvious facts. First of all, this was tested by internal QA for months. Second, it was tested by Evocati after that, just to make sure nothing slipped through. If you're telling me there are still this many bugs after two full groups of testers, a year's delay, and even more polish after that, well I'd have to say this must be a Chris Roberts game.

Today, kid, I'll teach you the honourable art of commando tracking. See, kid, a commando is always on the move, because the places where they come to life - or 'spawn' as the folks in the biz call it - are so friggin far from the places where they spend most of their lives, and die, that many commandologists argue that the main purpose of a commando's existence is to be in transit. I'm not entirely sold on this, kid, but I know is that if your regular commando survives spawning, he gets on his way like salmon migrating to the supermarket shelves. I'm saying 'he,' because commandos are all males, inexplicably. It's something to do with penises, they say. Now in this here 'verse, kid, a commando faces many troubles. One of them is vicious asteroids popping into existence whenever a commando goes, like those dry pellets a goat leaves. Think of commandos as bald goats in space. We track these goats by them's pellets. Here's a good steady trail, kid. Very regular, that shows a steady framerate of about... seven. That's someone with money to burn. Most likely, a streamer. Don't make that face, not all of them smell. Now, kid, we load Star Citizen streams on the ol' tablet, and check 'em. I don't like staying and watching too long, so as not to get those guys excited over a 25% increase in their viewership. There, see, that's badnewsbaron that keeps running face-first into rocks just like our trail here. Now, going by the light on those rocks in his stream, I'd say he's going thataway, towards Laymar, or Daycar, or whatever it was that they call that map. Let's go set a surprise for him. Bet, he won't be expecting anyone to enter his field of view and drop his fps to three, eh? Kid? Kid! Oh, goshdarnit, he's crashed aga

Bezos will personally stay up all night over the holidays if the need requires in order to keep those servers running in top shape. Let me check the Star Citizen Wiki, the fidelity™ encyclopedia quote:Star Engine is the unofficial name of Star Citizen's game engine.[1] Originally it is a heavily refactored version of CryEngine 3 from Crytek used since the first in-engine video released at the start of the Crowdfunding campaign. More specifically, the last update integrated into Star Citizen's code was patch 3.8.[2] So it's... their engine? But it's Lumberyard? Also it's Cryengine? I feel like this is something that should be pretty clear to understand, but it's got at least 3 different answers.

I feel like this is something that should be pretty clear to understand, but it's got at least 3 different answers. Here's a guide: - Are people complaining that CryEngine isn't an appropriate choice for the game? - Are people complaining that CIG can't get a simple FPS working in an FPS engine? - Are people concerned that CryTek is suing CIG for breach of contract? - Are people complaining how long it's taking to do anything at all with a well-documented licensed engine that other companies have no trouble with? For the above, the answer is "We use StarEngine™". - Are people nervous that CIG is using custom code that may be untenable and unreliable? - Are people wondering if CIG has the infrastructure to spin up sufficiently powerful instanced servers? - Are people scared that CryTek may go out of business leaving CIG without engine support? - Are people nervous that the custom engine might have insufficiently robust netcode to support enough players? For the above, the answer is "We use LumberYard™". - Are people concerned that CIG is using an untested and unstable custom engine with largely ad-hoc changes? - Are people worried about vendor lock-in with Amazon? - Are people concerned that the lawsuit from CryTek is a lost cause unless CIG is using CryEngine proper? - Are people concerned that the LumberYard engine won't work properly with the custom CIG changes going forward? For the above, the answer is "We use CryEngine™".

There are people who dumped money into brand new state of the art machines when Star Citizen's kickstarter hit in 2012. The most beautiful game of that year was Far Cry 3 It is now five years later. FC3 still holds up! Not amazeballs but still pretty to look at. This is Assassin Creed Origins:  And here is Star Citizen 3.0:  It is loving barren. Fidelity my rear end.

Its a tough, randomly generated treadmill, that gets longer, provided you hit various benchmarks. Few different ships to play with, each one having its own unique upgrade tree, with a universal upgrade tree along side. Lots of different was to approach things, largely by what gear you happen to find as you go. I put almost 30 hours into it, and apparently its now got an expansion. Looks like it adds a good deal of variety and new shiny things to mess with. e; I said treadmill. I meant more like hamster wheel.

SoftNum posted:Open Plan is pretty good for software dev cause dev tends to be a highly collaborative activity where people are working in clusters on certain projects. But yeah open plan is super standard for new companies now. Managers like Open Plan. 99% of all software developers I've worked with over multiple decades hate it. Some like having shared offices for the team, but the type of office CIG has? Noone likes that except when brown-nosing the boss. They're noisy and distracting, and programming requires focus and concentration.

Finished Prey a couple days ago. Arkane made some really neat poo poo there. I liked the original Prey, but Arkane did the name justice with the new entry.
