I have been out of the SC loop for a while, have Croberts saved PC gaming yet?

Tippis posted:You know how in Braid, you run through all these time-manipulation puzzles to get around obstacles and save the princess, and in the end, it turns out that it was all backwards and in reality, the princess was running away from you and trying to place obstacles in your way? So you are implying that the true ending is that this whole thing explodes? Had to check if they were still selling my favorite item, and they are! Want to show big publishers you’re voting with your credits? Pick up this special spacecraft skin honoring the RSI crowdfunding campaign! (visual unavailable) (also the functionality to apply skins has not been implemented yet and will be available at some point in the future!)

Its really interesting to see basically the same scene done by two directors of vastly different skill levels. The comparison might be a bit unfair though since one is merely a parody of fascist sci fi while the other is a huge turd

Isnt "service guarantees citizenship" the entire reason for calling the game Star Citizen?

Wrecked Angle posted:What are they going to do? Lock down a large proportion of the game world to hisec protection, thus making the game world even smaller? Get rid of PvP altogether and alienate 1/2 their playerbase? Thats the best part! Even if RSI were actually capable of making a game they have to either 1. Make a fun game, which would infuriate all the spergs wanting the worlds most boring space sim. 2 Make the most boring, grind-heavy game ever that would disappoint every normal person who paid 3 for the game

AP posted:https://forums.robertsspaceindustri...rge-response/p1 For comparison i looked at the ship cost in EVE  According to this the cost of a normal big ship, the t1 battleship, is $10 compared to $340 for a constellation. So either SC is 30 times more grindy than EVE or someone is getting ripped off

Samizdata posted:Also, truthfully, I pretty much have made this clear in some private Discord chats, but I blame almost all of this on Sandi. Chris strikes me as mostly a well meaning schlub who has a really hard time saying no to people (as they would probably stop liking him if he did). I figure Sandi saw some buzz about Chris, had a brainstorm) and dug him out of her phone's contact list. In Chris she saw a chance to revive her flagging personal credibility (we have yet to see any real confirmation of her being the best marketer since she was a little girl) by being attached to THE BIGGEST CROWDFUNDING PROJECT EVA!!!111! By this point in time, it had been established that crowdfunding projects do often fail, usually with mostly minimal legal entanglements. So then, Sandi, Kingmaker (since she was a little princess), had her plan. (And, yes, at this point if this sounds like a heist movie, I am meaning it to). A lot of good stuff here, but while Sandy is certainly a bad influence, I still think Chris is the one most at fault here. The two are actually extremely similar in a way; they are both has-beens (or never-was) with grand dreams of being big shot movie producers living in luxury, they both recognize that this requires a lot of cash and hard work and eager are both to let other people supply those.

Scruffpuff posted:Chris knows he failed to make what he wanted with the money they pulled in, but he's convinced that SQ42 will save the day. I'd love to say that it will be a heavy blow to him when SQ42 fails, and fails hard, but Chris is too monumentally stupid for it the failure to drill through his thick drooling skull. Most everyone else knows it's a scam now, though, and that includes Sandi, who has one hand on the divorce papers at all times. History repeats itself, after all. Yeah, I can imagine him blaming the backers, Derek, the escapist, his employees, basically anyone but himself for the games failure. Like, remember when he was asked what he learned from making the WC movie? He learned that Someone (not him) should have made him be more focused.

Scruffpuff posted:Keeping true with the power of this subforum, as we predict plot twists and turns, CIG is frantically changing them to make us wrong. Therefore, to cause the most delay in SQ42's release, we must not stop predicting the plot. With Chris as writer, just predict the worst, most mundane thing and we're probably close to home. If we keep it up long enough, we might inadvertently force them to write something that isn't derivative crap. I feel the safest way to predict the plot would be to take the footage we already have and extrapolate. So since the "gameplay" video ended with your commander forcing you to watch a presentation about how amazing the Idris is, I predict that the rest of the game will be nothing but varies ship commercials

Why would you crow crops on a spaceship? Why not do it on space stations, moons or planets instead? I mean we don't put farms on our boats and airplanes so why put it on a spaceship?

lazorexplosion posted:Persistence is like... very early on in a project you'll know if you have to store things in a database and you'll naturally write the back end with that in mind because it would be crazy not to. If they genuinely got years into coding an MMORPG and only then went 'Oh my god you what we need a database for some of this stuff, we have to do a bunch of work and change everything we've done so far' they'd have to be incompetent almost beyond belief. Which is possibly but even for them, Jesus... Or more likely it's just a buzzword for them to throw out, something that sounds like they're making progress on important things to laymen while actually being nebulous bullshit because in actual fact they're making barely any progress on the MMORPG part of Star Citizen. Like talking about pipelines that will totally pay off one day you guys. Nah, its to tick off a box named "Persistence". Next we'll get 100 barren, palette swapped star systems to tick off the "universe" box
