So I ran it in windowed more, this let me finish character creation. It was terrible and confusing. None of the hair felt like it was for a girl, so I ended up with my butch dyke character. Gameplay: I could go to 2 hangars. Ok. I went to one hangar. It was empty. I had purple things on my arms when I used the menu, which made no sense and had no functionality except a heart rate thing. Purple things: Ok. Camera gives me a great rear end shot. Can't see my character regardless because she's wearing a helmet. No way to remove it. Nothing to do. There was no terminal my menu says I had 2 freelancers somehow, but neither one did anything. Nothing showed up in the hangar. Second hangar, I decided to see if I could do that "run until you die" thing so I ran and jumped and only this happened, did not die: There was an elevator. I went up. The button on the screen was sticking out of the screen so it was kind of weird. I jumped off the second story but took no fall damage apparently. I figured out how to send somebody who was somehow a friend to me a message. The direct message was then glued to my main play screen and never went away. I could do nothing else. Super fun and worth the download. 12/5 stars, would recommend to anybody looking to get hosed. Also, I quit out, and figured I'd try again to see if the other location menu (which i could select the text on like some kind of HTML webpage for some reason) would populate with additional locations. I was back at the character creator. And again, it did not work. So I could not get back to the other menu to see if I could go anywhere else. And that's what it's like.

The FPS, in the empty hangar, went anywhere from 60+ FPS to sub 30-FPS and felt very choppy. The movement you probably hated when it was in Crysis 1, because it felt awkward and floaty, is here as well. You hold down "F" to interact with buttons and screens, which pop up difficult to read options on what you might be able to do. Sometimes it worked, sometimes you had to do it more than once, to use an elevator. The menu looked ok, albeit hugely over designed. Somebody spent a lot of time on a heart rate EKG thing that looks pretty but isn't really useful.

The thing is if you do get into the game proper, and actually get to spawn ships and fly around, it's not any better. The whole game is in this state. Rough, breaking down everywhere you look, completely unprofessional and unplayable at every level. This is why I rage so hard at Citizens who post kayfabe poo poo about how great everything's going. It's not just delusion, it's a goddamn dirty loving lie and they all know it.

I repeat: They're going to sell the Idris again. The Kraken too. Javelin probably. Probably not the Pioneer or Endeavor. But still, holy gently caress. All we need is a surprise keynote address from the big man himself, and I'm calling this CitCon Summer.

i just fired it up; after about 15 minutes of loading it hit the main menu, and I got into the character creator, which is fairly cool! I made a character and spawned into an aeroview hangar, which is basically a huge empty box with some crates scattered around it, and went through a door into an antechamber. There was no way out of the antechamber. i went back into the hangar and investigated all the options of my mobiglass (sp?). None of them gave me any hint what I should do next. I was about to look for another door when the game crashed to desktop. 7/10

What you have experienced is the entire game. You might see a different section of the map if the stars align and the bird entrails read favorably, but the rotten broken core surrounds you and unbinds you like the dark side of the force. And Sarsa's kayfabe reference is right on point - it's exactly, precisely what CIG and all the backers are doing right now. In a civilized society someone would be going to jail right now. (A real jail that works.)

Those of you who are logging in on the free accounts tonight and only seeing hangars- apparently CIG in their infinite wisdom decided that the "Free Flight" portion now starts "Whenever the servers are stable" so that's why you aren't able to load into the main universe. It should be another option in the same menu as the big empty hangars that haven't been touched in 5 years.

ok! second time round it loads really fast to the menu, like fifteen seconds! this is exciting. I still have the option of two hangars to visit. I'm going to give it the old college try and see if I can find a spaceship before I crash to desktop. AFAICT there is no way to load into a space port or anywhere that' not a mostly featureless box.

I'll not delete this pile of poo poo yet and hope for some good goon on goon rubbing action before the end of the weekend. This game got me all engaged because I saw it finally, and it's pretty terrible. It's like the worst programmers hired some decent artists, and the art is leagues ahead of the programming. But even that is a stretch because the art itself isn't great anymore by today's standards, but when compared to the rest of the game it's astronomical in quality.

You guys have to choose "spaceport" to get into the multiplayer PU. "Hanger" just takes you to the empty hanger. Last time I tried playing, you had to look at the floor and click on the blue dots on the ground to spawn in a ship.

it loaded a lot faster the second time around, like a minute or so, but there's currently absolutely no way to do anything but run round inside a big room and go in an out of a much smaller room, because none of the spaceports work I'm sort of committed to giving this a fair shake now, so I'll continue reporting back. sebmojo fucked around with this message at 05:56 on May 23, 2020 |
