My pick for "least likely to be ready on time": Q3: Ship to Ship Docking I mean, that's like a door on each side of the docking link, right? Good luck. Most likely to be ready on time? (all quarters): Performance Improvements Just try to prove they didn't do any. e: Taxxe

I love how, even with all their talk of "fidelity" and "realism" none of the artists seem to build anything as if it's on a real spaceship where the artificial gravity could malfunction...

Lando is such a little insecure oval office. He's like the poster child of failed Gen X nerds; a quivering ball of self-loathing wrapped in endless puerile nostalgia for the 70's and 80's and tedious faux-intellectualism. He only works inside the bizarre bubble of Star Citizen, because he's a reflection of the backer's own selves. "NO, everyone must watch every second of my inane banter with devs as I try to pointlessly assert myself over them and make pathetic attempts at humor! How else will they understand game development!?" It's good to show contempt for both your audience and the few poor souls still making videos about your game. colonelwest fucked around with this message at 00:52 on Jul 27, 2019 |

TheLastRoboKy posted:Hyper-defensive is probably the default mode for everyone working with CIG because in any given moment someone will blame you for what's hosed up and you need to be ready to lay that blame on someone or somewhere else. He could live in absolute terror of someone asking him why he can't abridge his stuff and save everyone some money because some dude can do a write-up of it all for free, and I wouldn't be shocked. I do not doubt if the project failed, it is going to be 100% SA or Derek's fault. I'm sure I'll even get some direct responsibility thrown my direction for being a skeptic. Quavers posted:

Grubby Hobo posted:My pick for "least likely to be ready on time": A solid indicator a feature isn't in the next patch is if it hasn't made an an appearance or been discussed on ATV (or whatever they are calling it now).

Sarsapariller posted:Subreddit pulse check: this week's subreddit is a Tale of Two Star Citizens. this thread is kind of amazin, they just refuse to hold roberts accountable in any way. Just because he's spent $200 million doesnt mean he should have anything to show for it. The other thing that i thought was interesting is that the OP was only running about -10 or -15. I think the fanatic defender brigade is getting thin on the ground. Probably many of them have just disengaged from the community, but sitll.

Dementropy posted:...the Dan Gheesling Experience... i remember all this very well. this feels like ages in the past. my live changed drasrically since then. boy oh boy what a flashback. chris's answer also is remarkable. he is defending this job decision while, on a sidenote, says that star citizen is a shure thing. i must admid that at this time i also thought so. i was a starcitizen fan and also told colleagues to check it out. i cant remember when my opinion turned around though. rePool posted:I do not doubt if the project failed, it is going to be 100% SA or Derek's fault.

Daniel Dale style fact-check *Originally billed as a command and control ship Fact check says: Not really. It was hyped and sold as a luxury ship. The "C&C" aspects, when mentioned at all, were a fig leaf to allow idiots to pretend that they weren't throwing 900 dollars at a space yacht. They were never elaborated on as actual game mechanics. *Bigger ships have greater scanning range and can pass that on to smaller ships Fact check says: No ship has scanning range of more than 10km and no ship can pass information to other ships. Claims about bigger ships have probably been made. But none of this exists. *The Carrack is supposed to have C&C abilities as well as the Idris and Javelin Fact check says: Yes, see point one. Every one of the unreasonably expensive super ships has "C&C" tacked on. None of this exists. *Larger cap ships have hangar functions Fact check says: It is undeniable that they have sold these ships with these functions. The ships, and functions, do not exist. *The Endeavor will be able to spawn ships and its main crew section will detach as an air to ground ship Fact check says: This is a stretch even for the ship that was sold with a particle collider module as a separate purchase. None of this stuff is being worked on. *There will be casualty management and medical gameplay in Squadron 42 Fact check says: To my knowledge this has never even been promised. It has certainly never been demo'd. Medical gameplay remains, after 7 years, cryengine standard. *These things not being on the roadmap does not mean that CIG are not working on them. They often work on things in secret. Fact check says: To date the only things that CIG has announced by surprise are new sales. As they cannot sell medical gameplay directly, and are pretty desperate to show anything right now, it is unlikely they are working on it. On the other hand, CIG does not seem to know how to talk about gameplay mechanics- see recent updates with things like the Law system. Mostly they just say the words "Law system" a lot, and forget to mention what it actually does. *Capital ships have multi-crew accomodations with hygiene facilities Fact check says: Most people would call these "Bathrooms." It is true- the ships do indeed have them. They don't do anything. Multi-crew gameplay doesn't exist. *The bathrooms will become relevant later Fact check says: There has never been a single mention of innovative bathroom based gameplay, despite many Citizen fantasies to the contrary. *Players will be able to take out loans from the space bank for ships Fact check says: Purest fantasy *Players will be able to gamble for ships Fact check says: True. Buying a ship right now is a huge gamble.

Its so noticable on things like the good old Star Wars or Alien where all the hallways are padded and everything can be put away into form-fitting drawers and stuff. They clearly put thought into living in space (which CIG hasn't)

I said come in! posted:Mechwarrior is one of the most cursed video game franchises in history. Very glad I did not pre-order. This game is developed by the same chucklefucks that are running Mechwarrior Online, a horrible pay to win competitive Mechwarrior game that sucks rear end. The battletech tabletop franchise is held by the same people who hold shadowrun, if I'm not mistaken. They're mormons, and the head of the company was caught embezzling a rather large amount of money. The company never got the money back, he kept his job, and Shadowrun 5e is a bit of a mess as a result.

Tuned into the highest viewer count star citizen streamer and watched as they larped an "op" where an opposing "team" of players could have killed every one of the protagonists using one magazine if they had been told the safeword to do anything by The Streamer. He then proceed to run across an open plain toward the "objective" while yelling at team mates about going the wrong way. He then died of a heart attack. Because that is a thing. The streamer then rage quit the stream because this was the second time he died of a heart attack. This stream. Game is shaping up boys.
