Vire posted:40 loving thousand dollars on jpgs. That's a yearly salary for a lot of people holy poo poo. I wonder what percentage of that 90 million is from whales. It's hard for me to believe all these people are in jobs that pay 6 figures if they are this stupid with their money. A regular person will just get one of the basic packages without extra JPEGs. At one million subscribers that's about 45 million dollars. The other 45m is the whales.

Unfunny Poster posted:No clue. However, CIG did put in the effort of linking his SA account to his rel name, which is a good use of their time. They have like, five private investors. I'm pretty sure linking the one who is currently throwing a tantrum and sending them Leonard J. Crabs letters is pretty fast and easy

Pogue Ma Hoon posted:I still don't understand the current sperg theory that we are trying to destroy the game and don't want it to come out. Of course we want it to come out. If loving with these nitwits is this fun on the internet imagine how much fun it will be in an actual game. The utterly massive game with shittons of content will be instanced anyways. So it'll be just the furries playing among themselves and so on.

Today, on "things the SC fanatics are creaming themselves about" a store-front has new duds (that you can't buy or wear, of course). http://imgur.com/a/SaztK ![]() Holy poo poo! Brown is in. quote:I like the original better, but I get the feeling Casaba wouldn't sell the kind of industrial sci-fi wears I would have expected from that original store front. quote:Kinda looks to me like a space UNIQLO. I'm all for it but I think it's too late to say at this juncture; it may all just be placeholder for later. If it is just social clothes (which I'm glad have their own place), I wouldn't put it past CIG to have an armory of sorts in the works. quote:Feel every excruciating minute as you escort your coed-pilot on a mission to find the perfect top for an evening of dancing at G-Loc. Your heart pounds as she stares into her MobiGlas, comparing the stats of two seemingly identical outfits. Will this be the one? Should I have quick-saved before agreeing to take this mission? Do I have enough cargo capacity to carry all this poo poo out of here?

Wise Learned Man posted:Wasn't co-op for Squadron 42 officially dropped? Or was it one of those classic Lesnick equivocal "not on launch, but someday" things? It was dropped form the main campaign but players should be able to co-op in specific sub-missions... someday, no promises, it's coming, probably.

I run my sleeve across my forehead, but it barely makes a dent in the sweat that is pouring down my face. Was it warm in here or just me? Glancing at the calm and comfortable face of the elderly gentlemen in the neighboring seat, it is painfully clear that it’s just me. The ship was almost full now, all the seats near me holding excited passengers. At the ticket counter I had debated if it was worth springing for one of the deluxe berths with a bed, but had opted to go with one of the main cabin seats instead and save the creds for when I landed. The thickly cushioned chair is probably pretty comfortable, but I am too nervous to really tell. The elderly gentleman leans over and smiles at me, “First time flying offworld?” I nod. “You got nothing to worry about. These new Genesis are about as good as they come. You barely feel the jumps.” “Thanks,” I manage to reply. His eyes narrow slightly, “You’ll tell me if you’re going to hurl, right?” Before I can reply, a flight attendant stands at the head of the aisle. “Greetings, and thank you for choosing to travel the stars with Meridian Transit! Today’s flight will feature a complimentary beverage and meal service about two hours after take-off, but snacks and drinks are available at all times in the Observation Lounge. We’re moments from launching, but before we do, we’d like everyone to use this time to familiarize themselves with our brand new Crusader Industries Genesis-Class starliner and review our safety protocols on their mobiGlas.” Glancing up from my mobi, I ask my seat companion, “How often do these things actually get attacked by outlaws?” “Not as often as they used to, that’s for sure,” he replies with a completely non-comforting wink. The loudspeaker chirps to life, “Attention all crew, prepare for launch.” A deep vibrating rumble causes my arm hairs to stand on end, as the starliner’s engines roar to life. It is clear to me now that this is a mistake. I don’t care what I promised Shelley. I start to fumble out of my seat, but it’s too late. A burst of inertia forces me back as the thrusters push us out of the hangar. I was doing it. I was leaving Earth. With some difficulty, I manage to swallow. Weren’t vacations supposed to be relaxing? Out the window, the blue midday sky turns quickly to black.

Jobbo_Fett posted:Seriously, I cannot wait to see "No Man's Sky" get released June next year and blow everyone's mind away and pull the rug underneath SC's feet for good. Yeah, that game will be released but from that to "blow everybody's mind away" there is a huge jump. The whole thing seems shallow as gently caress.

Chalks posted:From what I've seen it'll suffer from the same old procedural generation issue of everything being different in a very predictable way without real character or significance. Time will tell if they've managed to crack that problem. What kind of character or significance will there be between alien Gazelle #1,564,134,467,143,169,111 and alien Gazelle #3,765,123,753,123,631,835? Procedural generation is a good way to build a game area for your players to enjoy the actual content on your game. If the procedural generation *is* the main point (as it appears to be, haven't seen a single interesting piece of gameplay for that game) then the thing will be poo poo.

Loiosh posted:I've offered my feelings and opinions and respect hearing those of others. I've learned a great deal here, which is why I have enjoyed visiting when I have time. I enjoy your posts. By my own experience I realize how often people (me included) think that developing some incredibly complex piece of software is easy just because it's some that appears simple at first, or is very low-key. So your posts detailing some of the progress that they've actually made are interesting. At the same time, you have to be willingly blind if you don't realize that the whole project is in deep poo poo. Their approach to building the game (make different semi-independent modules and then join them together) would be a herculean effort for a game with their scope if they already had the core of the system ready. Without that it is just batshit crazy to try to work that way, as they have discovered by now. Anybody could have told them that, somebody must have done so. And yet here we are, 3 years later, with all sorts of disconnected stuff floating around, and them trying to somehow bolt it together. So their cutlass looks real nice but when plugged to their physics and flight engine it just doesn't have enough thrusters to work as advertised, whoooops! So instead of doing the logical thing (gently caress "realism!" those thrusters, when plugged to the cutlass, will have enough power to move that fat ship around) they go and decide to design yet another ship that is actually able to fit that role.

So what they are saying us that the cutlass is supposed to be some sort of space Toyota Hilux, but they somehow ended up with a space Subaru Baja? poo poo happens.

Loiosh posted:It's always weird to me when someone brings up a single counter example and expects that to prove a point. See this one example, obviously that means every coder should do this if they break both wrists and totally not take that time off to heal, like say, Patrick Klepek did when he had a bike injury (broke a clavicle). It's even weirder when you have a guy with a broken wrist / bone / whatever and people are wondering why isn't he's back at work finishing that really important video game. In any case, it's just an excuse and 2.0 is going to suck enormous amounts of balls.
