The good news here is that by time this space man is ready for sexual exploits, his partner will have likely gotten away. I hope that CR isn't going for the lack of fidelity where you just "select" an article of clothing to put on or off. I want, for my immersion, putting on and off each article. Every clip, every Velcro strip, every button... I want the spaceman to fasten and unfasten each one. Otherwise how do we know that each piece of clothing is sufficiently realistic?

Star Citizen: I'm right, and you're wrong (citation needed) Considering the only space game I've played much of is Deathwar I honestly think SC might have provided me with the most hours if enjoyment. Its a vicarious enjoyment deftly enabled by some top tier posting, bit enjoyment none the less. I think my drunk brain is trying to say that thread, you're my favourite space game. See you in the verse, commando's!

But if Crytek gets discovery then they'll see the Star Citizen code and they'll use it to make the greatest space game ever, and it'll save PC gaming, and it'll be the only game anyone ever needs to play again, and everyone will be happy. Except me, because I paid to win in this other game, and now no one else will be around to admire me.

Agony Aunt posted:That humanevil guy is pretty messed up in the head. He even seems to have forgot it was the Roberts' who put their kids front and center and it was DS who decried their use of kids as promotional material. Dogeh posted:All the pyscho-citizens seem to forget that. Narrative alteration and changing the past hard enough is kind of a cornerstone of the whole SC plot and its followers. If I recall, all that happened was links to IMDB pages, non of which Derek put up for any of the kids or family. That was the Roberts' doing that. If you're famous enough to be on IMDB, or think you are, you can't really get upset when somebody says "hey look at this IMDB page!"

Forgot to mention that about a decade ago I used to investigate UK-based corporate fraud as a bit of a sideline hobby. The whole shell company game CIG is playing is something that looks very familiar. For those following closely, I have one piece of advice: keep an eye on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. (I can elaborate, if requested).

Ha, honestly I'm woefully ignorant on blockchain. As for Frankfurt, that's the stock market of choice for shady outfits because the reporting requirements are extremely low. I heard a rumour they were going to reform this, but a quick Google search seems to indicate that that hasn't happened. Remember that a UK-based company does not have to go public in the UK. You just need to find an exchange that will value your shares at an inflated value without asking too many questions. The Frankfurt Exchange has a number of tiers, and the lowest tier is pretty easy to get into, while still providing a veneer of respectability to those not in the know. Outside of Frankfurt, there are Chinese exchanges, as well as the OTC Pink Sheet (i.e. "Pinkies") market in North America (the market of choice for shady mining companies). Given their actions to date, CIG must definitely be thinking of going this route. Whether they follow through is still an open question, I suppose.

I honestly have no idea, but the docs filed with Companies House seem to indicate that they're moving in that direction, not to mention some of the rumours that have been floating around. I can say that outside investors are useful, but not necessary. Example: I invent a company with, let's say 10,000 shares valued at 1p apiece, and distribute these shares to friends and family. I then list my company somewhere where they value the shares at 10 pounds apiece. I've suddenly made my pals look a lot richer on paper. Sure, this value doesn't really exist, but they can leverage this imaginary wealth in other ways. If I happen to find an investor that is actually willing to take the shares at 10 pounds, so much the better, but in the meantime I'm using that perceived value to my advantage. There's a lot of moving parts, but that's the gist of it.

A BluesNews discussion thread about the Crytek lawsuits naturally turns into a referendum on Derek Smart, which naturally leads to Hitler comparisons and claims of marriage doxing atrocities, which then naturally summons the Warlord.quote:Trusting Derek to be objective and truthful about Star Citizen is like trusting Hitler to have a nuanced approach to Jewish relations... you can give him the benefit of the doubt at first but once he's killed a few million Jews perhaps it's time to not take everything he says at face value. Derek has lied about the project from the start and harassed the developers and their families. His behaviour brought Sandi Gardiner to tears and I have no tolerance for Derek or the people that would defend his actions.  You see? It’s all perfectly normal...

I love how backers are still pro Star Citizen even during litigation. Whats more engaging is the fact that Citizens do not want to know what happened to their money. And better yet discovery thereof will damage CIG! I don't understand the reasoning and logic behind this train of thought. If they wish obscurity from the company which they place their trust in by giving money, I am unsure how knowing the details of spent monies will in fact damage the reputation of the company, rather it should bolster the trust of backers (to back more). But in this case its CIG. There's always more, its always worse.

Kikas posted:Wait wait wait. There has been thread speculation about potential upcoming stock sales for quite some time. I touched on it in that State of the Game post early this year, but more and better has been written by others in thread. Whether via offbrand stock marketing listing or a SeedInvest style offering, it’s felt more and more likely as CIG has gotten more and more aggressive about cash grabbing. It was bad enough with the Hercules Warbond offer that the streamers even started having spooked discussions about money after. And that was long before the UEC cap lift sent its own signal and then the Crytek / CIG case didn’t get Cry-REKT! as expected. Maybe CIG is still flush with cash somehow, and all their 2018 money grubbing is just their full embrace of the unseemliness of their reputation. Even if so, why not try to sell the whales on a chance to own a little piece of the dream? Even if it doesn’t come with the rights generally afforded to shareholders in a corporation? Chris deserves every dollar he can extract from those still believing in him after years of this crap. It’s the principle of the matter at this point.

I know that what's left of the Citizenry is deep in denial, and (from what we can see on the internet) largely made up of reactionary, butthurt manchildren -- but if they actually think that discovery is guys in jumpsuits hauling boxes of your Top Secret Hyperadvanced Source Codes over to the party where your opponents, their lawyers, and the judge are all drinking scotch and smoking cigars, chortling as they steal your secrets, then they will have managed to make my faith in humanity drop one more notch. And that's not easy these days.

Now if you look at the roadmap they'll still be working on Stanton (1/100 promised systems) through the end of 2019. This is all assuming that they can actually shove any more content into their broken tech demo. Like can you imagine the 10fps bug filled shitshow Hurston is going to be whenever it finally launches? It's all good for Star Citizen though, because each of those planets is more detailed than in the original pitch and will have more content than an entire AAA game. The criminal erotic gameplay has already been in SC for years though, its Chris Roberts fondling your wallets. colonelwest fucked around with this message at 04:31 on Aug 20, 2018 |
