COMMUNITY ISSUE COUNCIL STAR CITIZEN ALPHA 2.4.0S ON PTU ISSUE REPORT SC-22450 2.4.0 T EXTRA HAND

quote:

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1 pull out any gun (most visible with handgun)
2 look at extra hand
3 watch looks of horror given by other citizens

ACTUAL RESULT
I have an extra distorted hand growing out the side of my right hand, and it stays until suicide, easy to see with handgun and during flight, clips through face while reloading

EXPECTED RESULT
I should not have a third hand.

MOMA how do you feel about the flagrant and repeated copyright abuse by CIG?

Do you think that tagging customers on their backend zendesk as 'snowflake' or 'high maintenance' is in any way unprofessional?

Do you agree they should be sanctioned in the UK for violating UK Data Protection law?

Shouldn't they maybe acknowledge their mistakes and apologise to their customers rather than try to delete everything and hide the evidence of their malfeasance?

Just so we're all on the same page, which disaster/fuckup is it you're here to deflect from today?

Is it the revelations on yesterday's AtV that Squadron 42 is in the very early days of development and years away from release?

quote:

Sean Tracy talking about AI in Squadron 42:
- we need them having CONVERSATIONS with you
- we need them giving you MISSIONS
- we need... ah... all level of... all levels of different INTERPLAY between it
- we've got so much CONTENT that we HAVE TO GET IN
- we have to figure out the BEST WAY to get it in
- we've got HOURS AND HOURS OF CINEMATICS
- we've got... hours and hours of GAMEPLAY that has to play between the two
- we have to be very intelligent over how we actually implement this


Brian Chambers talking about Squadron 42:
- we're creating a system from the foundation
- a lot of that focus has been on, is 'OK, what is that SOLID FOUNDATION'
- all that with AI in it, that's just... MESS


Sean Tracy on Squadron 42:
- we have so many questions like that...
- if you've gotta wait a few hours for that answer you can't just really quickly COME UP WITH A NICE DESIGN PLAN


Or is it the list of stuff we've been discussing and adding to behind your back, that isn't even a fraction of the stuff that's been exposed and discussed to date?

Outwardly: dumbly, I float about, a thing that could never have been known as human, a thing whose shape is so alien a travesty that humanity becomes more obscene for the vague resemblance.

Inwardly: Alone. Here. Living over the giant, far from the station, in the belly of CIG, whom we funded because our time was badly spent and we must have believed consciously that CRoberts could do it better. At least the leavers are safe at last.

CIG will be all the madder for that. It makes me a little happier. And yet ... CIG has won, simply ... it has taken its revenge ...

I have no mouth. And I must scream.

Xenology is an unnatural mixture of science fiction and formal logic. At its core is a flawed assumption...

Its common practice for internal art so everyone is on the same page conceptwise in a timely fashion. Selling this poo poo for marketing and posters is uncharted territory and i dont think they really thought about it at all. Kinda sad. Definitely not a shady or malicious person imo.
