Emails announcing that the PTU was available to everyone didn't go out until days after, December 15. Coincidentally the release date of Elite: Dangerous Horizons. Classy, CIG.

CrazyLoon posted:Always count on Discoleak to give up the goods to us! Not Joking he will have received an epic bollocking for that . I reckon that today will see a few 'Stuff of legend' rants from the great man himself to various underlings, maybe some linked in status will change before Christmas, lets face it CR made a massive C*nt of himself live in front of the church and personally made his own his game look like a buggy pile of dog vomit. It wont effect production though because anyone that you actually see in the vids is utterly surplus to requirement. Its like LCN, the most successful crooks are never on the front of the NY times. When they shove some oxygen thief in front of the camera to gurn and spout poo poo, who gives a gently caress if they get fired, doesn't affect development. The key guys are well protected from all this stuff, by key guys I man the coders the level scripters and the artists. That homeless gently caress dressed as Santa just adds to the comedy for the likes of us.

Oh god I just watched it again and even in the pre-rendered zoom-out video they first showed, the transition from the handcrafted Nix assets to the awful noise map procedural terrain is so clear it's painful. They have nothing for this right now. The guys in the Frankfurt studio are either laughing their asses off that the head of the company just got his 100,000+ stooges to believe they're going to be flying around realistic planetary terrain in a month or so, from a little tech demo they whipped up in a week or two, or they're now terrified of being sent anthrax by the rabid fanbase when this thing falls apart in 9 months after the space-planet transitions still haven't been released. Also to anyone who thinks the in-editor Cutlass flight from space to planet looked weird, it's because the 'planet' is actually a moon which is only 1000km diameter. In other words less than a third as large as our own moon. Which has no atmosphere. So when you see the Cutlass travelling at 2000m/s down to the surface, it's all scaled fine, it's just that the thing itself is ridiculously small and so the fact that it has a thick atmosphere makes it look completely unreal. ...and of course (as they said) they haven't worked out any of the gameplay aspects of the orbit-->landing bit, and there's no gravity or anything right now. e: No, how you stage manage your loving livestream is you have earpieces for your presenters/incompetent director on-camera, so you can actually tell them they're live without having to yell and throw stuff at them so they stop telling the whole world their Skype password. CRoberts vs. Smart: let this mad battle of delusional visionaries continue until the end of time, please.

The key guys are well protected from all this stuff, by key guys I man the coders the level scripters and the artists. First- I love your way with words here. Second- they're not all that protected. They've rotated through just as many lead devs as they have "Personalities" in front of the camera.

That Pupil to Planet thing is one tragically hilarious attempt to upstage ED's own little video they made during beta testing with the debug camera. No fancy polish or syncing up animations just "hey I zoomed out when mucking around and this looked really cool, so we showed it off." You have to understand that Cryengne basically runs off creating a landscape via heightmap where you then add in prefab components to create rooms and so forth. It was coded for a tech demo for Nvidia and then expanded into a game. Large voxel landscapes full of procedurally generated trees is a pretty old trick in the book. It's meant for fancy landscapes nothing more. Its causing so many issues as deep inside the game wants you to stick to a flat surface. It's not coping well trying to pretend it's in space. It's likely why the physics are breaking as they push game objects out of their expected physic rules and it tries to reset things. The 64 bit thing is them attempting to smooth over any gaps in the calculations but this will just slow everything down as the CPU overhead increases. Reading up I've discovered that modders have actually played around with using Cryengine to create planets that you can fly off into space with, but hit brick walls. quote:All you need is to do is create a spherical terrain as a model not terrain with a 3d modelling software. fix a gravity sphere in the exact centre, be sure to negative the gravity on all the axis like so And from someone who's attempted a Kerbal inspired mod and actually got the ability to fly off a planet. quote:My custom code allows the player to quite naturally walk on the terrain even if it's tipped at, say, 45 degrees. When you blast off into space the terrain fades to invisibility and the objects switch off so you then see the planet as a sphere. BogDew fucked around with this message at 15:37 on Dec 17, 2015 |

Classy, CIG.  This is the difference between Braben's philosophy of game development and Roberts', and yesterday, Chris was eager to again attempt to upstage the leaner, more efficient and functionally stronger Elite-- so he got some new synthol injections and started flexing his bulbous arms shouting, "Check out THESE guns!"

If "charming/endearing" is the best thing you can say about the guy in charge of a project that has 100 million bucks pumped into it, then you've got some serious problems. Fortunately when one of your other serious problems is a serious cognitive dissonance between what is happening and what you're seeing then having a bumbling, muttering, increasingly frustrated man cursing his way through his own game's alpha that is failing to function properly in spite of it apparently being available for the public to test is just a sign that everything is on track.

Also man WMH was really good for the game. Skip to 7:46, what a good and smart thing to do.
