Just hang in there. I'm on my last day at current place, first day at new place on Monday. It's always a bit of a gut churn but it gets better.

Zazz Razzamatazz posted:And yet they don't fix the one thing that really bugged me about SC's space ports... there's nowhere for the ships to get stored. All their talk of "fidelity" and yet the ships just vanish on the pad. ED figured this out gears ago... The new stations have fully enclosed hangers, just like the ground stations and just like ED. Unlike ED, they are still only putting 5 or 6 hangers per station, and you're still persistent in the hangers until you log off or your ship times out, so there will still be enormous traffic problems especially once they introduce NPC traffic (lol they will never introduce NPC's)

MedicineHut posted:Citizens do not seem too concerned though. Everything is normalized. The collective brain wash says SC Space Stations are the best, and therefore even if procedural stuff is now used instead of handcrafting those Stations are still the best. No biggie. The BDSSE footprint is so prevalent and has been bombarded so repeatedly into the backers psyche that even steaming poo poo will be received in awe. I love the point made that everything takes so much time because CIG doesn't release poo poo. And then nothing works, the station is too small, people insta die and everything needs to be refactored for the 3rd time but no one sees the contradiction.

I laughed and said no, so I'm a free man as of this month. I've heard about this kickass game that is more of a lifestyle its called Star Citizen. It's so real I might just find my next job mopping for whales there!

Baxta posted:Yeah its the cpp (cost per pixel) marketing strategy. Everyone knows this and they have been open and up front about this from day 1. You don't expect pixels to be free, do you? From extracting raw pixel ore from the dangerous pixel mines to processing it at the pixel refinery into polygons... And that's not even mentioning interstate pixel freight. Stuff adds up.

Nicholas posted:Why does star citizen need bartenders at all. They sold people a drink mixing robot... A big part of the game's aesthetic are cheesy and campy anachronisms since it is a grab bag of stuff Chris thought was cool when he was younger. A drink dispenser is a lot less cool than a bartender that assists the protagonist.

How to do a space bar right (from the RPG Lancer, created by the guy behind the webcomic Kill Six Billion Demons): Getting served by a dancing fratboy bartender: not space! Getting served by a Boston Dynamics looking robot that probably hasn't been cleaned in months: VERY space. Rotten Red Rod fucked around with this message at 18:06 on Jun 14, 2019 |

"The foundational aspects of the bartender are solid," I said about my spaceship game, where the flight model didn't work and we were redesigning all the space stations because the ships didn't fit in them.

Total writer time: 2 hours. Total dev time: 0 hours, because you're using the same loving animations and mechanics jesus gently caress. You do not need custom NPC's to serve you cocktails! Nobody will use this! Immersion will not be damaged if you buy your poo poo off a loving menu-screen, just like every weapon, armor, and ship component vendor already in the game god dammit. It's just so unbelievably stupid

Sarsapariller posted:How to do a MMORPG bar right: Counterpoint: what do you propose CIG works on, that is within their ability, and which Chris Roberts understands. Granted that last one is a bit of a stretch, but let's meet halfway. There's not one thing they're doing that doesn't give away the fact that they lack the talent and ability to do the things that matter. To the submoron in charge, the "game" was a foregone conclusion, leaving the immersion details as his domain. As it turns out they can't make his idiotic "vision" and his very existence is why nobody will ever get this game. Which is why it's all about the most stupid poo poo imaginable. They can't do anything else. Scruffpuff fucked around with this message at 19:59 on Jun 14, 2019 |
