el B posted:Star Citizen will continue to revolutionize the gaming industry by offering monthly insurance premiums for all in-game vehicles. that was literally the sales pitch. Early backers were going to get "LTI" (lifetime insurance) on their vehicles as a thank you for believing in the project. Plebs who cane later would have to insure them on an ongoing basis, for a fee (ingame money I think but then they sell ingame money for real $$$ so...) insurance for your MMO spaceships is a normal part of that kind of game though, both EVE and Elite have it as a game mechanic

Every time you fail a mission in Star Citizen you're treated to a still image of your character suffering the "bad end" of a hentai game.

I think I speak for NEARLY everyone here in saying that no, we don't "play" it even if such a thing were possible. I know some folks in the thread have checked it out from curiosity but I'm not a fan of enormous, buggy student project-quality garbage files with no actual game/gameplay inside .random posted:Play is a strong word Why thank you!!

Is there anything in SC that doesn't explode? That shopping cart from the first clip is floating a million miles out in space somewhere. You know this.

Well that was a million dollars well spent. Obviously the field of luggage trolley simulation is still in its infancy.

CAPTAIN CAPSLOCK posted:I guess they added trolley carts recently I'm loving weak, this honestly looks like it would be fun as one of those Human Fall Flat/Gangbeasts/Fallguys type games where you barely have any control over your character but you have to complete delicate tasks.

You are a trolley pusher, working at a space port... for time travelers! Your trolley has become a bit unstuck in time. The only way to fix it is to to always keep it in the exact place in time and space that it is supposed to occupy. Manually. You have to move the trolley along the exact path it is meant to/will take at the exact speed it is meant to/will have. If you go too fast, or too slow, or pause, or don't pause when you should, the trolley will violently destroy the laws of time and space.

Many's the time when I was playing Mass Effect that I lamented how much more immersive the game could have been if only it included fully-simulated luggage trolleys. Of all sad words of tongue and pen, the saddest are these: "it might have been."

I hope this game actually does ship but it still has ridiculous physics bugs like this and they can be used for PVP griefing.

I just love to think about the meeting where the devs are trying to decide what features to put into their space MMO game next and somehow "put cargo trolleys into the game" made it in there before "made ship to ship combat a thing" or any of the other million things that would make this a fun game.

You want to see some ship-to-ship fireworks? Teleport a cargo trolley aboard the enemy vessel and watch the ensuing explosion take out half the solar system.

This is like the first episode of Mythic Quest, where this egomaniacal MMO producer has decided that the next great update to his game will be... a shovel.

Technically, I don't think they have gotten commandos to explode yet, either. I'm sure that will be changed in yet another pointless broken patch, though.

Whenever I wonder how anyone could possibly think Donald Trump was a competent president and a loving husband, I remember that Star Citizen is still going strong. Given enough momentum, any product, be it a racist shitbag or a non-existent game, can enjoy blind faith and devotion. As to why, I cannot say.
