iospace posted:Oh, and I forgot to mention, Elite is considered by a significant amount of people as the Killer App for VR. I rarely if ever hear about any other game being as amazing in VR, but that may be bias at play here. I think this says more about the other VR games than it does about E:D. I have nothing against it (and it actually exists) but it still seems about as deep as a puddle.

Anyways if CIG ever bring up Google compute again it needs to be looked at closely. No, that's not what it means. You can run your own server and install databases (e.g. SQL, mySQL etc) on it. That section deals with just what it says "third-party" services which would mean Google Compute, Microsoft Azure etc ----------------

They would have to give CryTek notice of termination and, it, by contract, can not be immediate either. That's also patently wrong. And has been discussed.

It wasn't clear to me because I didn't hear anything in the broadcast that would lead me to believe that 1) they "call the Ortwin thing" ahead of time 2) the result of #1, is what led you to posit that they may have sources. So clearly I may have missed something because the broadcast came after all the filings were in place, and there was nothing they could have "called" Ortwin on that wasn't already public knowledge. Unless you meant "call out"? quote:Seeing as the Guard Frequency guy was the only one prescient enough (or with enough inside sources? ) to call the Ortwin thing ahead of time, ----------------

Also at this point it should be clear that it is stretchgoals schmetchgoals. Extrapolating what they have done so far and in what kind of quality they delivered it, can only lead to the realization that none of us will see this castle in the sky no matter what happens. Funny thought is that the whales that got fracked hardest are probably the group of people everyone -be it CIG, Crytek, the judge, Skadden, this thread, etc.- cares least about at this point. And rightfully so.

He and my boy Dan ”let’s gooooooooh” Gheesling put friendlier faces on the game than most of the usual suspects. CIG needs more personalities that actually seem to enjoy playing the game and don’t have livestream meltdowns every fortnight.

His words almost resemble those of a nice person, but his actions reek of pure vanity and self aggrandizement.

D_Smart posted:Why not? They totally can. No, you're confused over the concept of a private server vs a private instance. Private instance is a playground that Star Citizen operates, the private server is a shitizen setting up a 'no girls aloud' [sic] universe. This was a selling point to the people that want to be king of their own domain. This is same misconception that No Mans Sky and Elite Dangerous ran into and suffered mild PR hits from in terms of the mismatch between dreams and reality. quote:“Icinix: With the recent renege of offline capability of Elite Dangerous - is CIG still committed to providing offline Private Servers and Squadron 42 for backers? It's one of the more rapidly eroding promises from the original concept that they'd build this with a framework that was less tied to a company that provides commodity database, networking and instancing. For extra lols; https://forums.robertsspaceindustries.com/discussion/comment/128673/#Comment_128673 quote:1. The plan is that you get the same universe to start and that's it for the most part. You won't get the systems that are added to the existing world and hidden because we don't want you taking apart the game to find them and then going to the full server. If players demand more, we'll see how it goes... but the plan is that we'll launch with the toolkit for you to create the same kind of content we'll be adding to the live universe.
