Is there a clunky robot alien race in the game?

I love how every single loving marketing channel they have uses *ask open ended questions so fans can whip themselves into a frenzy with theory-crafting while you don't have to commit to anything*, even to the point of poo poo like that.

They could post a photo of people walking through a door with the caption "where are these people going?" and within 6 hours of circlejerking in the echo chamber Reddit would be convinced that where they are going is to the moon, because Crobblers' vision simply can't be constrained to the world of something as inconsequential as a video game and so RSI is now a real life company with a real life rocket clipping through the hidden in the parking lot.

Yep, people are dead wrong about this marketing style. I very much doubt Sandi is behind it, probably a very expensive marketing team who told them to use this style so the rusted on backers feel like "I know so much about the developers" and "I'm contributing by commenting on Twitter"

Instead of posting a changelog when they release it, CIG will just ask the fans what they think is in 3.0

That way the backers will feel proud of their contributions, rather than horribly disappointed

I'm getting "not authorised" on that twitter account, does that mean it is now private, or that I am blocked? I have posted zero tweets from my account, so I can't imagine why they would block me, but apparently everyone else can read them?

Are you on mobile? Mobile browser twitter is dogshit and will randomly tell you it's broken, or you're banned, and the fix is to just refresh until it works.

I have to wonder why there is a fan grill in the lower back of the chair construction. Looks like the PC is standing by the desk, so I'm not sure if they have something else stuck under the chair.


It will be played at the wrong sample rate, though, just like the SC launcher has done with its music.

amp for the butt kicker under the seat most likely. so air flow.

like just reading this means they have to put in a new reputation system into 3.0. how do you get rep? how do you lose rep? who the gently caress do you get positive and negative rep with? how does the game know if you're a good or bad guy, as showed in that questflow?

so many loving questions. why aren't people asking these loving questions.

That's what they plan to have eventually. Say, 3.4 or 3.5 or so. Here's the version that will be in 3.0:

Don't you get it? So many other games have done it, it must be easy as breathing. Except Chris is going to do it better, and in a totally new way, and faster than any other company could.

But but but goons are legion, and even one has access to a thousand bot reddit accounts for brigading anything they want into the ground. They've just never done it before because nothing was worthy until now. Only SC is that special.

You go to the store and pledge 20 bucks in exchange for some reputsol. That one raises your rep by ten points for 15 minutes.
