How long has Ben been doing this Wing Commander stuff now? What a life.

Does he still work for CIG? I haven't seen him rolled out in a while

Everyone assumes he was fired quit or is just relegated to sub basement C

He hasn't been seen in any public role with cig for months and months now , and the last few videos that show his office it looked empty

Good for him I say , he deserves it

Well done.

Look, i'm sure someone, somewhere is/has cataloged just about everything Leisure Suit Larry related, but even that person thinks Ben is pathetic for adding cannon from a movie that is not even acknowledged by any other fans of the game series. Chris Roberts doesn't even talk about it and he directed the drat thing.

It's a complex game where the +2 cards beat the +1 ones but lose to the +3s.

+4 cards a thousand dollars.

Ask for the completionist package in order to get access to +5.

Star Citizen Good, in all things forevermore. Amen.

Virtual Captain posted:

magnetic boots were working in 2014, then mysteriously stopped working ever since. I don't have a strong grasp on the "gravity zones" timeline but I remember it was a technical hurdle that any backer will tell you was solved a long time ago.

If the short term fake-it-for-now solution was to make each gravity object (station, ships, bennyhenge, etc) a floating 2d plane; it may have displaced the more complex logic that controlled anchoring a player to an arbitrary surface. A year or two passes and now it's too difficult to take out the short term solution because every ship seemingly takes months to implement thanks to whatever horrible manual process they have.

Don't call it a comeback.

But seriously don't remind backers this has been broken for over a year.

�aside from the citizens, so they can diligently point out every thing that's wrong about them and how little anyone pays attentions to all those errors.

I would read his blogs if you paid me. It would have to be a substantial amount. Say an agent's girlfriend's birthday party amount.

I don't believe they have any intention of integrating Havok. It will break everything. The job posting is just listing those middleware in order to hire someone with a passing knowledge of how middleware physics engine work.

Yeah it looks like it: 'Maintain, support and optimise the existing physics'

So they don't have anyone in-house capable of implementing working physics and collisions.

If only there was a way to get Derek to eat some very potent pot brownies. Can anyone here imagine Derek being so baked he was actually chill to hang with?
