The bartender stuff is just beyond parody at this point. What the christ. What is this 85% poo poo on stuff like 'Vehicle third person camera'? The arbitrary task percentage stuff is just so much bullshit. That 'last 15%' could be literally anything, from 'just needs some localization' to 'It drags FPS down by 80% and is totally hosed'.

WaltherFeng posted:Out of curiosity I looked at an old road map of FFXIV 2.0 and it basically says "Redo loving everything" and it took them 2 years. You know, everyone complains about how long it takes Square to make a game, but in retrospect, during the years it took them to make FF15 and KH3 they were mostly distracted by making like a billion other fully completed games. So they're loving masters of game development, ESPECIALLY when compared to CIG.

I stumbled across this in my general youtubing… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ax7f3JZJHSw …and as much as we keep tossing the phrase around with little to support it aside from some fumbling and as a general point of derision, listening to that description of what someone who does not know or understand the language of computer games does when confronted with a game, it just struck me how Chris manages to tick every box. He doesn't understand games. On a deeply fundamental level. He's stuck in a loop of “why can't I do…” without ever realising that his job as a game designer is to teach the player to exist and act within the design constraints of the game, that such constraints are inherent to all games, and that there is a conventional language to how these things actually work.

But you could also respect what Chris did and just let him absolve himself of all those pesky promises he made to people! He didn't have any problems or remorse doing that so why should you? It's really much easier that way.

Hahahahahaha He's literally talking out of his rear end This whole interview is snake oil bs he's making up to sound good, none of it is true. quote:When you think of standard video games, you have a limited number of actions you can take, or “verbs” so to speak. It seems like in Star Citizen you want that to be limitless? Except none of this remotely works anything like this in Star Citizen. There are an extremely few limited "verbs" you can do. Being able to do anything would require like, Second Life style letting you code the game or script things; they definitely aren't doing that. Also Chris is incapable of having his own ideas. Everything is just "Hey, you see Avatar? We're gonna do that! You see Ready Player One?" Chris has seen movies. And attempts to prop himself up by name-dropping them. Also, Everquest 2 did facial motion capture like 10 years ago, its not new tech. And lmao at just saying "really high-fidelity face". It actually looks like rear end compared to modern videogames. quote:What techniques or technologies have you developed that weren’t feasible seven years ago, when you started this project? I worked on an MMO with planet scale planets back in 2009. There were several other projects at the same time working on the same idea. Universe Simulator is a thing. Roberts is just completely clueless on the state of the industry and what is feasible and what isn't, what what we need better hardware for. He's loving clueless. Also everything here about "The cloud" is pure bullshit. He doesn't understand the technology. Zaphod42 fucked around with this message at 22:33 on Nov 16, 2019 |

This entire project has been Crobbler screaming "notice me" at Hollywood while detaching money from the easily dazzled. "I offer fidelitious movie effects! Look a sand worm (oh no look away it went *poof*)!" "Look a large scale planet (oh no look away it also gone *poof* )!" " Over there, it's the space ship from Alien, a vast Blade Runner-esque city, Hamill, Oldman and Anderson in CGI!" "Look at the amazing mini shorts we create that sell jpegs and fake land like hotcakes" I'm so looking forward to the new big thing of their con. Don't let me down Crobs.

They should have asked Chris Roberts, "Creator of Star Citizen," about the gaming future, and he could have helped them use server meshes to release the power in the machines. Serves them right, really.

It "worked" in that it had some cell-phone quality games you could play on a TV. It didn't work in that the controller fell apart as you played it. It didn't work in that they had to abandon the "all games have a free demo" concept in order to try to get anybody to put games on it. It didn't work in that the company went bankrupt and they never had much games to play on it other than things already on the iOS or Android stores.

How is it that none of the citizens are complaining about third person cameras? That is a super anti-sim addition. It means that anyone playing from the cockpit of a vehicle is potentially at a severe disadvantage. This was a outrage when it was added to mechwarrior online. Yet these morons are completely okay with it. Also my depression got worse seeing people so broken as looking forward to vending machine maintenance.

The OUYA was for a problem that didn't need solving in the 1st place, couch gaming with friends still existed on the big 3 consoles. But the company was a comedy of errors, setting up a booth in a car park across the street from E3 and promoting Donkey Kong Country on the system are the bigger ones. Having said that, the android consoles has never really disappeared with the nvidia shield still around and OUYA was bought by Razer for a stupid amount of money.
