Nothing gets me more upset with what a 3 year old game is doing to continue to support itself and it's players. Makes me want to rage against random tech demos and failed Kickstarters.

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:They don't care about shooting people in first person. They care about interacting with their autism chariot in first person. They care about flying around and playing the role of Malcolm Shepard as they fly their starship Millennium Beepop around the galaxy. The primary draw of Star Citizen isn't that it's a game, it's that it's supposed to be some kind of immersive experience. You're not playing a space sim, you're participating in a First Person Universe. Elite is a game that features tight mechanics and a coherent design philosophy that covers every aspect of player interaction. The priority is providing high quality gameplay. In contrast Star Citizen's priority is the narrative. In Elite your character is a sterile, unimportant participant who has no impact on the uncaring galaxy at all. Star Citizen markets itself as something more immersive and player-oriented, that's designed to compel the player to play for one more hour because of how good the story is. You're giving them way too much credit. Elite is a half dozen half-baked ideas cobbled together into a working game. SC is a legion of grandiose ideas cobbled together into a non-functional mess. As soon as you get past the god-awful grind of Elite, the player only discovers more grind and  design decisions. But it is at least a functional game; unlike SC.

If it's one thing star citizen does right, something amidst all of the noise of terrible management, missed deadlines, disorganization, and malaise that irradiates with CIG, it is the art, and level art. If you're an artist or there are artists here, you've got a fan of me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4x40SId3DtI That came from this link: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/4eRl4 nawledgelambo fucked around with this message at 22:47 on Apr 19, 2017 |

In this whole saga the desperate thirstiness of Sandi is one of the weirdest sideshows. Does it belong in this thread? I dunno. But it is funny as hell

cool new Polack jokes posted:True- just to stop the emptyposting that inevitably occurs trying to push a thread to a certain page, or "how big can we make the thread" posts I like to think of all the insane and pointless "We made it to page XXXX!!" posts are a highminded commentary on the nature of Star Citizen backers and the way that achieving the next 'tier' of funding has taken on a greater importance than the actual development, due in large part to the complete absence of evidence for that development. But I'm probably wrong and also a moron.

Drunk Theory posted:Have you seen the new schedule, it's pretty amusing in how unrealistic it is. Or the video about the making of that schedule...which is honestly pretty boring and I hate watching their media. They have a video about the making of a schedule???  As somebody tied to JIRA and other less popular software packages, and of course Word and Gliffy... I bet that video was action packed! Of course the funny part about making a chart is that the chart itself isn't that important. It's the pages and pages of documents and diagrams and explanations that make all of those graphs have sense to them, and why they are the way they are, and why X takes 10 weeks and Y takes 1 week but Y can't even start until X, and X is really hard so expect delays and probably Y is going to be late no matter what... unless you plan for it. But you know that's kind of the hard part of software development where no software or flashy movies or motion capture happens. So naturally this part was probably skipped and they just cut to the "Well uh, how long do you really think it takes to get a female/planet/HUD built? Ok! Throw that up there! Two weeks!" Some day somebody is going to have a post mortem on CIG and I'd be curious if they tried to do everything while cutting as many corners as possible and literally falling into every pit because the easy way is never the right way for any big project. Like trying to cut it all up into "easy bites" and nothing ties together because nobody had a planned out template to follow.

Unfortunately in CRs case, he isn't even surrounded by his peers, because he stopped being relevant over 20 years ago, and has been totally unplugged from advancements and programming and networking capabilities.

Glad Sandi is hard at work on a student movie about a cult when she has her very own cult in real life. This is exactly what highly paid executives do for their multi national corporation struggling to release its first product while being years behind schedule. The worst part of the dream of Star Citizen is that the only dreams coming true are for the dirty people scamming other people.
