I'm still insanely confused that any of them actually give a poo poo about Derek Smart. Like I've been reading this thread for like a month now and every once and a while it's still like wow, what the gently caress is wrong with these people lmao.

Retro hipster chic is trending this year. Why pay the prcie of some heritage quality maple that going to gain in value as it ages when you can have snazzy pre-dented aluminium instead ? I wonder how many shirts where damaged by having a thread caugt in the numerous exposed screws of that coffe table.

D_Smart posted:It's all true. I've had way too many first hand accounting for there to be any shred of doubt in my mind. That aside from The Escapise own digging. I don't like to diss on Sandi too much because extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence and, aside from the weird-rear end meltdown at CitCon and her blatantly weird behavior on camera, none of the rumors about her have ever really been substantiated. I'm not saying I doubt them, particularly, but I won't jump on the bandwagon until I see more confirmation than anonymous sources and vague references. But let's posit for a minute that all of it is true- she is the Yoko of this project and nearly every management gently caress-up can ultimately be laid at her doorstep- the loss of Wingman, the move to Santa Monica, the endless mocap and giant waste of cash that is the cast list, the unbelievably callous and exploitative marketing decisions, on and on. The question on my mind is- how much more damage can she possibly do? Assuming Chris never comes to his senses and fires her, because all sentiment from the community filters through her (so largely doesn't get to him), can she actually destroy the entire thing? To what end, as far as she's concerned? My impression is that she's about 2/3rds checked out of this whole loving thing now, spending more time on the auditioning for podunk-rear end acting parts than she does ruining the 100-million-dollar company that could have been her actual ticket to fame. Assuming she's as bad as everybody's said- is that really reason to declare the whole project doomed?

I think Sandi is a sideshow because however terrible she is it doesn't really mater, Chris is the CEO and in the end it's all on him.

This reminds me, does CIG plan to include a mechanism for something like the flu? In such confined spaces with everybody breathing the same air the flu would spread like wildfire. If you were infected it could for example impair your performance a bit while flying or in FPS. There could be epidemics of different strengths and there could be a whole level of gameplay involving transport and piracy of medicines, etc. The research ships could also be involved in coming up with new medicines to manufacture and you could have research mini games involving mixing different ingredients for testing and manufacturing. And gene modification but that's a given.

It's so disappointing when I get into a car while playing GTA and it's all over in a second or two. Where's the fifteen second high fidelity entrance animation? Important actions such as adjusting the seat or checking the mirrors or buckling in are all glossed over so carelessly. And when my character dies and respawns at the hospital, lazy Rockstar just plops him down outside on the street. They missed such an obvious opportunity to have a twenty second animation of Michael slowly getting up from the hospital bed, and then allowing you to walk down several hallways and hit ^USE^ on multiple doors, and what is life without half a minute spent activating and waiting on both sides of an airlock!?

peter gabriel posted:I will play the game soon again, how do I check if I am in the PTU or whatever it is called? You get an invite email. Then when you launch the client you can select the Setup (upper right, looks like a gear) and do 'Copy Account' to create a PTU account. It will email you once this is completed. It kinda works similar to the WoW PTU in that regard. Once your account is copied, you can click on the PTU option on the left side of the client and then launch it after it finishes patching. Right now since they added 50k more users, it's lasting about 10-30 minutes between server disconnects. I've been learning how to move and things. I haven't played since AC 0.9, so there's a whole lot of changes to get used to.
