Just catching up with the new thread, but this is one of the stupidest things I have seen on the net. About the poster: Widely considered quite the posting genius, Erenthal has been shitposting in a professional capacity on SA for the last 8 years. He owns more belts than is strictly necessary.

scrubs season six posted:CIg should start selling plots of land for people's bases or homesteads or whatever. Just have some of the artists crobble together some basic city layouts and then surround them with ~1000 plots of land each. Shitizens will trip over themselves in their hurry to pay thousands of dollars each for the largest/closest pieces of land. Yeah, and Garriot is already doing this, so I'm actually at a loss why Sandi hasn't pitched this idea to Chrios yet.

Ok so serious question about corporate structure. Any other game developer out there that also uses CIGs model of 10+ different entities conected through an intricate web of ownership and obfuscation? And I'm excluding the massive publishers like EA or Ubi, because they surely have both legitimate as well as illegitimate reasons for having a ton of subsidiaries.

I mean, the stream (and I only caught the tail end) was littered with statements that by themselves mark this project as an unfinishable scam. Take the Kingship, and Crobbers casual statement that "yeah, that's fully modelled with interiors you can explore". That's a 2,8 km ship. Just modelling the interior would take entire studios months to complete. And that's not even mentioning getting it to fly in the game without eating up all of the servers memory, getting the systems and animations to work and so on. And he just states it as fact. Jesus loving Christ.

Just went back to reconfirm my impressions of last nights stream, and yep. Not only did Chris Roberts state with certainty that SQ42 would be a trilogy, he said that it would be comparable to the Star Wars or Lord of the Rings trilogies. So yeah. Besides the obvious deluisions, there were no games you could compare your supposed "game" to, Chris? Went straight to movies, huh? Erenthal fucked around with this message at 10:54 on Dec 17, 2016 |

cool new Polack jokes posted:Funny thing is, SA is probably the most welcoming community to people who've gotten refunds vs RSI or Reddit. I have more respect for someone who gets out, at any point, than someone who's going to see it through to the bitter end. There are times when I can respect sticking to your guns, such as holding fast to a deeply held political ideology even though the world seems to turn against you, or fighting for a good cause though people may find it unpopular. But people refusing to ask for their money back from a shady corporation of scammers that repeatedly gently caress you in the rear end? That's just called being a goddamn idiot.

I might have missed this in the last 6000 pages of threads, but Shankerz is one of us right? Or he's paid? I mean, he has to be paid! I just cannot conceive of an existing reality in which a person this goddamn stupid exists otherwise. It's a black hole. CERN just wasted billions of dollars finding anti-matter, when all they had to do was to open up this guys skull and find plenty.

TheLightPurges posted:Important Issues How. How do you gently caress things up this badly? It's an engine made for shooting dudes. Even the most inept modders team out there can whip up a simple FPS mode with leaderboards and where the client won't need to be restarted every round. It's just mind-loving-boggling.

I mean the sheer blinding incompetence of CIG is on display daily like a retarded lighthouse, but I'm still periodically shocked all over again over just how bad it is. It's like this bubble of ineptitude that you get used to when living in this thread and when you leave it you are astounded to see and play games that actually work and are good like BF1 and Astroneer (that I bought because of this thread and it's drat good!).

Ok, so yeah, they might be doing better on the engine front. They might even get functioning net code. So what? This does nothing to balance out all the other fuckery they have to deal with. One look at the checks that Crobberts wrote with his mouth and stretch goals will tell you how hosed they still are. No design documents. No gameplay foundation. Not even attempts at balancing the ships. Non-existant flight model. 140 million dollars of pre-sold commodities that will utterly wreck any attempt to create a functioning economy. A (relatively) tiny player base that can never sustain continued operations. Mo-cap reshoots that apparently still are ongoing. Merry christmas, CIG! May you see another!

Rudager posted:I've always been a big fan of this part, "will never be pay to win" while they've been selling ships from the the original kickstarter that poo poo all over the starter ship, AKA pay to win. No you see CIG already told us that the operating costs of the big most powerful ships will be so massive when it comes to fuel, ammo, crew, rations and so on that players will only use these ships when absolutely necessary and then only when in huge organisations.

Ash1138 posted:lol And it's such a meaningless number. Any old gently caress can simply create empty space and top that. Hell, Elite is bound to have orders of magnitudes more "space" to explore, right? It's about what content you can fill the space with, and CIG's pipelines are so far nothing but clogged drinking straws.
