MoraleHazard posted:I genuinely feel sorry for the people who dropped $10,000 on this ~~game~~, emptying out 401k's, using student loans for it, etc. I was excited about this when it was first announced, too, but I still don't feel sorry for anyone who would spend $10k on a video game and neither should you.

 says the ship name Beer posted was a red herring, made on the assumption that goons would immediately ruin everything and obfuscated just enough to make it believable. Meanwhile, he and D-Smizzle are sitting safely on the REAL name, and will tweet/post it right as the presentation starts and it's too late for CIG to do anything about it.Much, much funnier that way. peter gabriel posted:I wish Samsung made cigars peter gabriel: Cigar Citizen

The last time I sold stuff on the gray market, I got enough of a markup to pretty much break even overall despite still having some stuff left in my hangar. Now this has me wondering what the going premium for a Veteran Backer account is, these days...

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:It does hurt. I took it very hard when they fired James, and frankly I allowed myself to care about this too much. Star Citizen is not my life. I have a great job that's fulfilling and interesting, I love my family, and I have numerous other interests and hobbies. But SC was special. It was unique and exciting, and it was cool to see things grow and learn about development. I feel like part of that is gone now.  I had to tab out of Awful. and go watch some zefrank videos on YouTube to cheer myself up after reading this. Beer

Matlock Birthmark posted:I have no frame of reference. What is that .jpgs? It would depend on the particular jpg, of course, but you could easily convert many of these into "this jpeg costs 3-4 flight hours in a Cessna". Plus cost of instructor, that's easily half a jpeg to a jpeg - or several really gourmet burgs - an hour.

So, just to clarify, it's okay to mention the number of pages added overnight and ask for a recap? And it's okay to boggle at the number of posts in a short period, as long as you use a hilarious form of curse in the process? at the number of posts as long as you don't ask for a recap as well I just want to make sure I understand so I don't get probed again  Help me, Kewpuh, you're my only hope...

Also I keep seeing people asking why do spaceships need swing wings and turbine thrusters in zero gravity... and as much as I hate to actually side with Croberts about literally anything at this point, this one is really easily hand-waved away by saying "because they can also fly in atmosphere too." C'mon, goons, really? I mean, yeah, PHYSICS, but it's sci-fi for gently caress's sake. You might as well ask why an X-Wing has wings. There are so many better things to criticize Star Citizen for.

Annnd there's the PayPal confirmation. Add me to the list of the Emancipated. I've now got every penny I ever put into this game back, plus about $300 or so on top of that. Reddit > Refund. If people want to keep paying for the dream, let 'em.

grimcreaper posted:So, im getting a space game itch, i have ED which i played for 10 minutes total So, about halfway through experiencing the available content, then. Don't get me wrong, Elite has a lot of potential and I'm definitely going to give it another go once they've fleshed it out more, but right now it's got about as much depth as a kiddie pool. It is, however, an actual game that you can play, so there's that to say for it at least.

AP posted:So if all the Illfonic work on the FPS did mostly get wasted, at least they did drew some inspiration from their interaction with CIG and did something with the money. One unexpectedly depressing aspect of Illfonic's part in this drama is how much it now reminds me of what happened when Gearbox outsourced the completion of A:CM to a third-party. There was so much dev work - engine code, levels, and other assets - that got left on the cutting room floor when the project was transferred. I'm a huge "Aliens" nerd, and I actually got to work on that project in a small way (did some promotional work on that title for Sega which led to Gearbox asking me to mocap for them), and I'm still butthurt about what happened. Even the in-development poo poo I saw at Gearbox was better than what shipped.

BluestreakBTHR posted:This reminds me of the time I smashed Randy Pitchford on twitter for DNF, [some other game I forget], and Aliens: CM. Smash Pitchford all you want. The entire A:CM dev team was doing backflips they were so excited about that project (Brian Burleson, the Exec Producer, actually went and bought himself a set of colonial marine armor and a pulse rifle)... and then the board shitcanned it when they realized they didn't have the manpower to make it AND Borderlands 2 simultaneously. There's some real irony to an Aliens game getting hosed because Corporate Bastards screwed everyone over, lol. Full Metal Boxers fucked around with this message at 13:51 on Oct 15, 2015 |
