Pixelate posted:Not sure you argon believe this, but... quote:A ballistic round passes through the ship's shield, which scrubs off some of its kinetic energy but not enough as the round's velocity was high as was its mass as it was an armor piercing round. It manages to penetrate the armor and strikes an internal component, say a power relay node (something else we are working on as part of the pipe system refactor). The power node takes damage giving it a chance to "misfire" while in use. A few minutes later the node does misfire, blowing its fuse and resulting in it catching fire. The crew of the ship doesn't realize a fire has broken out in one of the side corridors, as they are busily concentrating on fighting the ships attacking them. The fire starts to spread along flammable surfaces, and as the fire starts to engulf other components they also catch fire. The engineer on the bridge of the ship sees his console flash red giving him a warning that several components have failed and looking at his ships schematic he sees a fire has broken out below decks. The engineer decides to seal the bulkhead doors on the corridor to contain the fire but the doors have no power as the power node is out! He comms one of his crew mates to leave his turret and grab an extinguisher and put out the blaze which is slowly creeping towards the power plant room. Fire reaching a ship's power plant or it's ammo stores are two sure fire ways for your ship to go boom. With the physical damage system ships will no longer just explode when their hit points reach zero, they'll explode because something inside them went critical and exploded (due to damage or heat), which then damages everything else. Outside of that damage will affect the ability of the ship to function or it's structural integrity so they also could become a lifeless hulk as much as they could go up in a flash of light. When the crew member gets to the corridor where the fire has broken out is has already consumed a huge amount of oxygen in that "room" (the corridor) and has released noxious gasses, so the crew member can't breathe and quickly retreats to put on a fire resistant suit and helmet. The engineer in desperation manages to reroute power away from the destroyed node through a secondary node restoring power to enough of the bulkhead doors to allow him to contain the fire. Noticing that there is an external airlock in the sealed off area he opens the airlock, venting the oxygen in the sealed off corridors and rooms to the vacuum of space, depriving the fire of the ability to burn, putting most of it out. By this time the crew member is suitably dressed and can extinguish the fire that made it past the bulkhead door before it can grow again. The engineer then reseals the airlock and allows the life support system to replenish the air in the vented part of the ship. Once done the engineer opens up the bulkhead door allowing the crewmember in with a replacement fuse for the power node, restoring power to that section of the ship, then returns to his turret. It's been a close call but the ship is still alive and in the fight! This is the single funniest SC thing yet Seriously this man needs help I want to print this out and pitch it to a game studio as a joke lmao Zaphod42 fucked around with this message at 09:06 on Sep 15, 2020 |

Its game design by fan fiction. Roberts just sits around all day writing super_duper_game.txt like a 13 year old who wrote a contest, with no concept of how games are made Then some 100-200 employees across the planet have to each try to implement different interpretations of his ramblings simultaneously And then of course nothing is compatible

Hey thread! I had a long discussion with a backer recently and it really opened my eyes. The dude really only cared about getting progress updates and communication from developers. He was disappointed in (finished, released) crowdfunded games because they didn't provide enough communication and admitted he would have preferred if the games had taken longer to release and had more microtransactions so long as they provided more insight on the development process. What I'm getting from this is that Star Citizen would make bank on a reality show.

The Angry Joe gang reacts to Crobbers ramblings https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZ4fM6dUEGI&t=670s quote:I don't think SC is a scam. I think they are trying to put out a game. I just think they are... incompetent. I think they mismanage the time, they over promise, they are going to under deliver, and they are selling people real estate in a game that does not exist, and it's horseshit. And I think that kind of monetisation is anti-consumer, it's anti-gamer. And we should be against everyhting that they are doing other than making the game. Don' sell space ships, and then more spaceships. Give people a realistic time frame. MedicineHut fucked around with this message at 10:33 on Sep 15, 2020 |

Excuse me, but this is very, VERY bad FUD. What you see in this vid is a highly skilled software developer, developing games, responsible for the physics simulation and even more in that game. You know, someone who puts ones and zeros into a computer all day. He was just pretending to never have seen a modern computer, different input controls OR his own game. He is saving PC gaming in this vid, for fucks sake! e: I think this vid should be shown to the hardcore backers in an endless loop - clockwork orange style.

trucutru posted:Well, it's kinda hard to go head-to-head against freaking star wars (or at least it used to be). I'd contend this, since the narrative driven part is Sq52 which can be bought stand alone. I think the major supporters these days are not the people wanting the wing commander clone, but the guys wanting a new Eve or second life in space and buying ships. The harsh reality is that CR is probably still dedicating most dev time to the Sq52 side instead of the side people are spending money for, which may end up coming as an unpleasant surprise for a lot of people when it releases with a big ta-da and almost nobody cares and they wonder how this gets them closer to being space Captain Kirk of their own ship instead of lovely on rails space shooter with a boring story between missions. The reason the game after WC4 tanked, Prophecy I believe, is because the formula of "mission-cutscene-mission-cutscene" was boring at that point. Game design has moved on to be far more interactive than watching a video/in engine cutscene. Not to mention having famous voices for characters and even their likeness is not really a big deal anymore.
