I know that I've posted way, way, way too many of these, but these are phenomenal examples of knowing how to design a game from start to finish by focusing on the things that actually matter: https://youtu.be/S4UwQedB-vI. Near the end, he talks about why realism for the sake of realism is a poor goal in terms of game design and why it should be the first thing to go when it starts negatively affecting the gameplay experience and/or the gameplay loop.

Popete posted:lol half the comments are deleted by CIG moderators. Apparently citizens aren't asking the right questions. "How cool was it to work with Mark Hamill?" "How many words are in the script for Sq42?" "Will the player have a voice during conversation?" These are approved question types. Deviation will be met with deletion and possible banning.

ClownBobo posted:Who other than an audience should a person be performing for? Virtue signal? Shitizen please! Sexual stimulation in any way within the grounds of the Fourth Stimpire is strictly prohibited, and anyone detected even touching their sexual organs will be subjected to a penectomy or if the offender was a female, they would then have a razor inserted into their ovaries. They would pump a blue solution into the womb until the stitchings burst. Offenders would also be forced to show their operated areas in public, and they would always harass and punch them to a pulp, against their will. Otherwise, offenders would be tazed with the worst type of electricity in the systematic district, causing so much pain, the victim would scream and flail in madness. The pain would also triple every second, but no death would be incurred. This is also used in combat against enemy units, which is why all UEE forces must wear the upgraded suit to block this effect. However, enertainment is also questionable in UEE grounds. Sporting events end with the losing team being rounded into a grinder and shredded on live television, boxing matches end with the loser having their hands removed without anasthesia, flight races would end with the losers having their arms and legs removed, then being injected with insanity, for entertainment. People are also forced into these events, by undergoing a painful 127 hour procedure which involves tweaking the muscles so they will not listen to brain commands, and then having a painful drug injected which also causes madness if the player is not sporting. This is all for entertainment, and anyone not watching any of it during sporting times and cheering for the winning team, they will be imprisoned into galactic camps. Snuff films are also broadcast, and actors are actually murdered just for entertainment. Stealth droids also guide these forced actors into behaving exactly as the director dreams, otherwise they will be punished by being placed into a macerator and having their execution written into the film. Any film that does not feature someone being murdered will be burned and the entire crew behind it will be executed in the most grotesque way possible - vivisection. All executions are broadcast, and anyone who misses even a millisecond, even by blinking, will be executed. All citizens must boo to the person being executed, and the family is gathered to be injected with eternators, which cause pain forever, making them immoral but feeling the pain tenfold every millisecond. They cannot pass out, but they will feel like it forever. Conquests by this Stimpire end in the planet being razed, and all the citizens being executed in the same way as their citizens are. The planet is then destroyed and all remnants of it are removed, and any memories of it will be erased instantly from civil minds. People who are also killed are also erased from memories, and all memories of them, including toys and pictures, are destroyed. Prisoners undergo 40,000 years of relentless and endless labor, and anyone not complying is sentenced to the eternator injection. All prisoners injected with eternators are placed into capsules and launched into far space, then the room is closed tight to ensure maximum insanity. Some prisoners are also subjected to the removal of blood, the lungs, the liver, the genitals, the skeleton, the muscles, the eyes, and even the injection of pressure. Prisoners sentenced to pressure chambers are locked in until they are inflated to a high level. The decompression is then stopped to make sure they are inflated and uncomfortable. Children born on the 14th of July are subjected to the removal of their skeleton and an implant of a silver liquid to replace it. The nervous sysem is also injected in various parts to ensure it is five times more sensitive than the average. Restaurants also are ordered to serve civil meat, and anyone attending must give themself up to be cooked into a grotesque meal. They are cooked alive, undergoing extreme pain, and are then subjected to industrial grinders and blenders. The Stimpire orders at least 1 million citizens to be dispatched every day, as they are afraid the population may overthrow them. But only one planet is cared for, and the rest are banned from eating, drinking, talking, using technology, touching anyone, wearing unauthorized clothes, touching buildings, or walking a centimeter out of designated routes. Civil enforcers are on every planet, and they are engineered so that they are 40 times larger than the 300 quadrillion population. At least 7 billion die every 12 hours under this rule. Thoughts are also surveyed, and anyone who does not think anything to loving the Stimpire with more than their capabilities will be sentenced to a prison. Prisoners who are punished for this violation will meet their greatest fear, only to have it amplified so they will turn insane as they imagine it exactly as they fear it. They then undergo a painful extraction of all fluids, to be replaced by a toxin which causes permanent irritation. The unknown substance keeps the subject aging normally, except they will never die. Prisoners punished in this way are unable to be reverted, despite many efforts, and they will never be able to be disposed. The sickening truths have been revealed only today, and invigilation teams are still investigating the truths without setting foot in the galactic space of this sickening empire.

so i assume that 2020 will, once again, top every previous year in crowdfunding. nothing will be released but chris will be showered with pledges. star citizen will, as always, be compared to each game which releases this year. and it will win. because ci will promise, that what they are working on is on a whole different level. pledges will pour in. the playstation 5 will release at the end of 2020. there will be no news regarding sq54. but ci will assure their backers that, compared to sq54, everything on ps5 is kindergarten-style. and so the cycle will repeat endlessly.

Yeah, jeez it's not like launch day is easily the most interesting day in any MMO (as long as the servers hold up) because everyone's starting at level one and it builds a sense of community. Imagine how much better the WoW Classic launch would have been if a bunch of people were already level 60. You'd have to be some kind of fuckin moron not to let your players buy power before the game's even out, imagine it. Pretty sure you mean CRYREKT

Thats not right,one of the reasons why they are selling the ships right now is that at game release,they want to have already a fluctuating economy from the beginning,imagine SC release day and 2.5 (and thats the player base now,so not even near release) Million players rushing into the unknown Verse with an Aurora ^

"[img posted:https://i.imgur.com/7TwHaJa.png[/img]"]Theorycraft but what if Crytek is attempting to just sell out to CIG for a low price. long shot but that would be worth it in both parties names. Crytek would become a subsidiary of CIG at that point keep their name but everything they own becomes CIGs. Id buy into that if i was CIG it helps both parties and makes CIG look like the good guys.

Zaphod42 posted:These guys have like 1/10,000th the budget of CIG and they are absolutely eating their lunch The style in which they explain their engine capabilities is pretty neat. Don't know if the game will be any good or not, but I would like to have seen these kind of videos as a SC backer back then. You know, spawning 1000 ships, explain a bit what the general approach is with the networking, where the damage calculation is done, how the LOD works and so on. Explain it in layman terms while showing it. That we haven't seen more than a few ships at once in Chris` Mod is quite telling, fidelity or not. The engine isn't up to the task and most likely will never be, so we'll never seen 1000 auroras in a pack at once with a commando flying around with a rocket launcher showing what is possible and what not. Instead, we get highly detailed assets combined with smoke and mirrors and a buggy tech demo that craps itself when more than 50 players are active... yikes.

Rotten Red Rod posted:I think you might be misinterpreting the job title "Legal Manager". It's one that's a bit ill-defined, but I think it's generally used to mean something more akin to "Legal Assistant". I really doubt it's the person actually legally representing the company, but instead is doing a number of administrative legal tasks and such. And I don't really see how having been a makeup artist in the past should disqualify someone from that role. Fact.
