Toops posted:Totally. It's a huge risk to do that much up-front design, because it could wind up being a tangled goat-gently caress. Or, it could all come together smooth and easy, and just not be fun. No matter how you do it, the project has to be run by very experienced people with clear vision, preternatural understanding of the market trends, and a history of being right. I hadn't heard of Roberts or his games before this either, or given him any money. I have no interest in space games so when the kickstarter launched I probably just ignored it because of that alone. Eventually I kept seeing news post that SC raised x amount of millions and I got curious, why are people giving that much money. And found the thread here in SA. I still don't really get why people gave him money I guess, he can't explain things clearly or can show his passion for his "vision" either.

YOUTUBE: Redacted - 1/31/2018 - Highlight Reel Doing this to give you guys and gals a temperature reading from three regulars and their audience. (Note to Twerk, Bored, and WTFO, as I assume at least one of you checks this thread on the regular... The audience calls are great — so were some submitted questions from your viewers. Particularly in this period of indeterminable waiting for the gameplay to arrive, you might consider moving this segment forward because it rewards the direct audience interaction and makes the show feel more like a dynamic conversation rather than just a “let’s discuss this week’s disappointments, delays and controversies.” I almost bailed on your show because the further out on CIG’s roadmap you got, the more caution seemed to give way to hope and theorycrafting. But the calls were worth it and added a real shot of color to your show so I hope you’ll give them their proper place. You might find viewership climb and engagement goes up if viewer calls become a prominent fixture. Anyway, just my $.02.) Twerk & WTFOsaurus don’t care about ships anymore... WTFOsaurus expects Bind Culling to add 3 to 5 additional frames per second. Twerk played other games this week, the. Came back to Star Citizen and felt nauseous. 3.2 is discussed, particularly the new clothing options. Twerk, “They’re redoing Legacy Armor for the third loving time.” Later, “I’m starting to feel like... am I being negative? Or have we wasted time.” Discussions shift to the impossible laundry list of 3.2 gameplay features supposedly coming. Twerk asks Bored what they should name their Mining operation. Bored, “I don’t know — I haven’t even thought about it. I can’t imagine gameplay.” Boredom and theorycrafting until they take a question from voicemail from a player called Commander420. He seems to make a subtle joke about being one of their weed dealers. The voicemail is actually  in a goofy, committed way and worth listening to.A boring theorycrafter’s voicemail follows, and then TheOperator calls bullcrap on CIG and aUEC ship sales. He thinks starter ships may be purchaseable via credit but that the ships people want will remain cashmoneysales only because CIG is too greedy to do otherwise. He expects Land Claims and player housing / buildings / apartments will be aUEC purchasable (an interesting alternative option) but the good ships? No way. WTFO agrees short term, but for launch CIG surely won’t go back on that promised feature. They take a write-in question about Haters who spam theories of doom regarding the Crytek lawsuit. They recommend French & YoutuberLaw videos. CrimsonFire: “Why are they making Shipjacking Armor if we can’t properly steal ships?” Boom! They all crack up because whatelseyagonnado? — There is more I skipped but this is a decent highlight reel. The best moment was Commander420’s call — I ’d.

Went through my inbox and found a bunch of unredeemed Humble Bundle games that have just been sitting there because I already owned them when I bought the bundles. Ziggurat Pretty awesome games if you ask me. I'm giving them away for free, obviously, and it's been a few months so I hope they still work. I don't know if there's a time limit on that poo poo. Anyway, just say which one you want and I'll PM you the link/code. Mangoose fucked around with this message at 21:25 on Feb 1, 2018 |

I must admit I spent hours on Privateer as a kid (and finished it -- not the expansion though). But to me at the time it was exciting to listen to the (terrible and muffled) voice acting and space jump between star systems doing missions. The controls and the gameplay was awful (and holy poo poo that last troll enemy) but I didn't fully appreciate just how terrible those were until I recently re-bought the thing on GOG and tried to replay it. Good lord I barely lasted one hour. I also spent many hours on Privateer 2 (unsure about Crobblz involvement). Mostly because of a combination of FMV, better controls and testing out my new Pentium II performance. I dread to replay that these days as I can do without another disappointment. Other than that I've had little interest in the WC games and I only tried Freelancer for a few minutes before deciding that I'm done with that poo poo.

XK posted:So, you don't get the multiplier, or legal fees, but you can recover all profits/damages, and yank the property. Kinda. If you rip off something by someone else and it wasn't registered with a copyright, you can still be sued to stop doing it, but if the work is registered, you are presumed to have acted with malice, so it all goes up a grade. That's why copyright notices are displayed up front, and why the internet was so much fun in the early days. I had to talk to the New Scientist ~ Laura Spinney, in fact ~ regarding the use of articles online. Paraphrase, do not copy was her advice.

If they ever put fauna in the game (lol at that entire sentence) it'll be lovely nonmoving art assets like all their "npc" characters, and I'm going to purposely shove them out of ships over common landing areas because gently caress this whole endeavor.

In Monster Hunter World you can catch creatures with a wrist mounted netgun and let them loose in your house. I have a pink rabbit weasel and a bunch of goofy birds in my room. Also everyone should buy MHW.

Wait! So basically he's saying the dev was talking about implementing a feature in the near 3.0 - 3.1 term, even though NONE of that even exists in 3.0, nor scheduled for 3.1 - 3.4?!? Hold my beer.... https://robertsspaceindustries.com/roadmap/board/1-Star-Citizen ----------------

I don't think the backers are going to let them get past the whole No Piracy/breaching/ship theft fiasco. They stuck their foot in it big time and they have nowhere to run. Lando nailed their rear end to the wall with it by doubling down on the November comment. There is one thing that made me realize there was never going to be any boarding or disabling of any ships for that nonsense anyway. Remember when they were refactoring in the new damage states of the ships and showing all those pipes and conduits under the skin? Can any of you point to one section of ANY of those ships and tell me where there was a section where the hull was/can be breached? Or were the Proper Manner Pirates supposed to knock on the front door and ask to be let in? I mean correct me if I am wrong here, but wouldn't there have to be a pre-rendering of that sort of damage to facilitate that game mechanic? There is even a Major Tom video where he glitched through the hull and ended up inside the actual bulkhead of a ship. No sign of those points of entry there either. The problem with long term lies such as this is that you have to keep remembering the lie in its evolution or else you get caught. Jared is just not good at his job at all. Not one bit. He does not have the gift of gab that he THINKS he does either especially when the people paying attention to him are not emotionally involved and will allow such faux pas to pass without notice.

"You know how someone just made up some poo poo that was contrary to the other poo poo we made up which also didn't make sense in the first place if you looked at anything else we made up? Well get ready for us to completely change the poo poo we just made up that you didn't like by making up some poo poo that you will like. No, this isn't an indication that we have no idea what any of this would actually be. Why would you think that? Your assertion that the state of the game is so tenuous we can just make wildly conflicting statements about core mechanics in a short period of time based on whatever the person speaking thinks would be the best idea at the time of the question is false. What motive would we have for telling our customers that have given us $170,000,000 what they want to hear." Backers will eat this poo poo up because they need to believe it. I call it "Autist's Razor." It's the exact opposite of Occam's Razor and you need to make as many assumptions as possible to prove the outcome you've chosen to believe.

Didn't they already write off that kinda poo poo back when they decided ship to ship docking was something they couldn't figure out? I do remember them saying that ship hulls could only be breached for boarding in specific places, but that was before the PG poo poo really took root in everything they were doing.
