It's a game after all, as long as it's fun and works as it should, why would anyone apart from interested nerds and devs need to know how the technology behind it works?

Sarsapariller posted:God I swear this exact article came out about this exact same feature when it was first announced over a year ago, and I had a minute of feeling all smug because of course that's how you'd do it if you weren't a simpering jackass. It's the very first shortcut any normal dev would take. Ah yes but see, thing is *wavy hands*

Being a space ninja is cool as hell and will spoil every other game where you have to run from point a to point b.

I'm definitely going to be disappointed when I can't land my spaceship on a planet and drive my 60 dollar rover down the 190 dollar ramp, only for the whole thing to clip into the ground and explode. I feel like the whole thing won't be nearly as satisfying when it's all free and also works.

Yes, 2015. Feature creep was opening up 4 more studios and skinning procedural animals on procedural planets. What a farce.

Neltharak posted:You have no idea how right you are. The theorycrafting on the discord is early-SC levels. Plus, lethality likes it People forget that all of these space games are being made by indie studios with small budgets. While they can have some cool gameplay, they’re always going to be small and narrow experiences for a niche audience, not the be-all-end-all modern AAA space sim that everyone is still hoping for.

Neltharak posted:You have no idea how right you are. The theorycrafting on the discord is early-SC levels. Plus, lethality likes it One of the devs did go on record saying that they expect the EA release to be a bit of a hot mess but they see it as necessary for testing the game beyond what they're able to do with just the studio team working at it ![]() I'm encouraged by the lack of bullshitting the devs have been pumping out. I am concerned by how many times I'm hearing "We aren't really sure how that'll work yet". At least if it is a hot mess and people are mad they have only themselves to blame for expecting the next coming of Christ.

big nipples big life posted:Stop buying unfinished space games. Stop buying early access survival crafting sandbox games, at the very least I feel like EA is a bullshit thing for multiplayer games- if a single player game is EA I can wait until it's finished with no loss of quality, but a multiplayer game lives or dies by player count, and if a multiplayer game is open in any capacity, it's basically going to peak on players and begin to decline after the first few months. If you wait for it to exit EA chances are that the population will be nearly gone by the time it does.

BREAKING STANDBY BREAKING ![]() It's time to CELEBRATE INDEPENDENCE DAY! Nearly two weeks late! In a game where the big megaciv is an imperial monarchy! Our options range from "Hundreds of dollars" to "Holy gently caress you have to be loving making GBS threads me"! BUY BUY BUY! ![]() THIS SHIP COSTS 5 THOUSAND DOLLARS AND ISN'T IN THE GAME BUY BUY BUY! Sarsapariller fucked around with this message at 17:01 on Jul 12, 2019 |

I like that the UEE, which seems to use the colors gold, olive, and black exclusively, has decreed red white and blue to be the colors of independence

You know that Chris has totally been out of the country for the last month and only just got back when someone asked him how his independence day party went and his hands immediately began a flurry of motions

A constellation yacht (it's white!), a pirate ship police variant (it's blue!), and an ambulance (it's red!), and two of the three don't exist? If you buy this what you'll actually get is the yacht, the regular pirate ship, and the regular non-luxury version of the same yacht, because those are the loaners they offer. Also you don't get the game, that's not part of the package. It's a steal at only six hundred and seventy-five loving dollars! Oops we forgot we were supposed to pretend that all the ships are going to have custom colors some day and that wasn't just a thing we sold on the 300 and don't plan to add to any of these other ships!

Are these bundles abnormal? (Other than being stupidly expensive macro pre-orders that is.) I can see the Constellation Phoenix is 'limited stock' and included in one of the bundles. Guess that counts as rare. Can't see a limit on the packages generally though. Does it stop when the patriotism runs out?
