Seriouspost, are you actually of the opinion that the programming side of the project is closer to completion than the art? Even though, by your own admission, they have hardly any programmers?

Bacon Terrorist posted:Imagine paying for a pint of craft ale in bitcoin: in the ten minutes it takes for the transaction to go through the market would have fluctuated wildly several times. I've never done it (or been in there) but friends have for novelty value. From what I remember they sit a fixed exchange rate at the start of each day and don't wait for the transaction to finish before pouring. The btc aren't really used to pay for the beer they just go in a pot and the pint is written off. I think. It's not a serious use of BTC (hint: because there aren't any) it is just a fun gimmick.

Loiosh posted:I don't know where you're getting this insurance company thing from. They're not too concerned about people doing this to give away a ship or two. This is a concern for someone who loses 5 to 10 ships. In theory anyway. Absolutely none of this is currently present in the game, so we can chalk it up with the farming simulator in the bubbles on that capital ship.

You can't attach the label "innovative" to anything that hasn't been done before. A lot of stuff hasn't been done before because it's a bad idea or not feasible given the constraints of the project. Do you see where I'm going with this? A lot of the time CIG aren't being innovative they're being unrealistic and dumb.

I've never actually read the stretch goals page properly before, holy poo poo they are more doomed than I thought. They've already skipped a ton of the early poo poo and some of this I've never seen mentioned anywhere.quote:Build professional sound studios. We’ll move Star Citizen’s sound production from a home office to high tech facilities that will give us access to cutting edge sound effects and Hollywood voice talent! The sound design is pretty good - but why isn't this being shown off? Oh right, movie. quote:The Hangar Module will feature Oculus Rift support. BUT THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH CRYENGINE (no it isn't) quote:Professional mod tools will be provided free to all players. I cannot see how this will work. They'll never allow players to unpick the tapestry of lies they've woven. I doubt they can even extract the cryengine dev tools they've patched, hacked and modified from the giant weird build system. quote:Tablet companion application to check on your inventory, commission or find missions and get the galactic news feed. iOS? Android? Mobile development for a million (  ) players and all their myriad devices, surely that can't take longer than two weeks? quote:The RSI webcast will feature a monthly Town Hall Q&A with Chris Roberts 10 for the Chairman is not a Town Hall Q&A. If it were a proper town hall setup, he would be heckled back into the 80s. quote:Professional-quality feature-length “Behind the Scenes of Star Citizen” documentary film. Sign me the gently caress up. Do they have a full time film crew following Sandi around? Probably not the best idea. She'd have to be both in the office and not shouting at minorities. Roll tape. quote:Arena mode: The next generation of Wing Commander’s TrainSim allows pilots to test out their combat skills against friends or strangers in a simulation. Gain valuable combat experience without the downside of losing your ship in the game universe! Place bets on competitions across the galaxy. Place bets? Using UEC purchased with USD? Isn't that regulated somehow?! quote:Manage Space Stations – Players will compete to own and operate a limited number of space stations across the galaxy. Has anyone seen this mentioned? They can't own and operate a single seat ship right now let alone a station. quote:RSI Museum will air monthly, with a new game featured each time! Where is it? quote:Procedural Generation R&D Team – This stretch goal will allocate funding for Cloud Imperium to develop procedural generation technology for future iterations of Star Citizen. Advanced procedural generation will be necessary for creating entire planets worth of exploration and development content. A special strike team of procedural generation-oriented developers will be assembled to make this technology a reality. I thought procedural generation was the devil according to SC dogma? EVERYTHING MUST BE HAND CRAFTED. GET ON MY LEVEL YOU E:D PEASANTS etc

Regrettable posted:I hadn't played Space Engineers in about a year, but I loaded it up a few hours ago and was blown away. I expected maybe a decent sized planet, but not star systems. I'm actually kind of afraid to spend more time with it because it might start taking up all of my free time. I've built an automated hydrogen mining operation that is farming a frozen lake. The tankers autopilot themselves up into orbit. There is a string of satellites between the planet this is happening on and the moon I have my main base on to keep antenna links up so I can admin things remotely. A programmable block keeps the satellite solar panels pointed at the sun so they don't need reactor refuels. I am the only man in the solar system. It is mine. I sit on a throne of gravel.

I paid $10 a decade ago and the forums have consistently entertained me all that time. It's about as far removed from the star citizen value proposition as you can possibly get. You've paid $10 to stand in front of a jeering crowd with your pants around your ankles hth.

AP posted:You said all promises, I was working forwards in time from 2013 from their 1st hangar release as that seems more logical to me. I dunno why you'd want to defend the feature list of 2.0 considering it's not even been released officially yet to the live servers. They might add some real persistence to it in a patch today, maybe SATA Ball too, that can't be far off can it? It's not like Sandi had to scream at Erin to release it or anything, lets hang a lantern on that right now.
