alphabettitouretti posted:Despite many examples of their incompetence I still can't quite believe clown stimperium games messed up this badly. When did the mocapping start? 2014? And 3 years later not only is there little to no evidence of a game that uses it, they're still building and rebuilding ships and maps and apparently having to do even more mocap to make up for the total lack of planning and forethought. It's a colossal gently caress up and had to be a huge waste of money. Crobber's a loving liability. This is extremely common, which is why all the professional IT people in this thread believe it happened, and are so sure that crobbers is incompetent and the project is going to fail. We've all worked with someone like this, and usually they are a perfect example of "they would need to learn a lot more to understand how bad they are" Usually these kind of mistakes just cause delays as the workers fix the bugs. Except when the manager decides that he knows better than the people doing the actual work and causes more delays... that he then "helps" to fix again.

Wrecked Angle posted:Whoa! Hold the gently caress up guys. Let me have a go at having an earnest debate about Star Citizen with the obvious re-reg troll account. I'm great at this stuff, hold my beer! If we don't encourage him, he won't post his nuts, and nobody wants to miss out on that. This round is lacking a narrative though. I preferred the last few where there was a build - up before the reveal.

I'm getting "not authorised" on that twitter account, does that mean it is now private, or that I am blocked? I have posted zero tweets from my account, so I can't imagine why they would block me, but apparently everyone else can read them?

History Comes Inside! posted:Are you on mobile? Mobile browser twitter is dogshit and will randomly tell you it's broken, or you're banned, and the fix is to just refresh until it works. That was it, I'm on mobile and refreshing a lot worked. Thanks! (there was no cookie popup)

Weekly reports are also broadcast, and actors are actually murdering their lines just for entertainment.

BeigeJacket posted:I tried reading one of his years ago. A large portion of it was written phonetically from the viewpoint of some AI/android thing and it was just too mental for my feeble mind to handle. You picked the worse possible Banks to start with, which is a shame. I just reread "Great Sky River" by Gregory Benford, and I think you might like it. A bunch of augmented humans living on a post apocalyptic world near the galactic center try to survive being hunted by the mechs that destroyed their world. quote:Hav - Do you know if Fallen Dragon by Peter Hamilton is any good? Wiki says it's a one off book, as opposed to his gajillion page series. It's good, but it read a bit like YA fiction. Dongsturm fucked around with this message at 20:36 on Jun 22, 2017 |

Facebook Aunt posted:Good summery. Despite appearance, I don't think that is supposed to be TP though. Each 'roll' larger than a man's forearm. Looks like some kind of bottle to me. They're natural gas tanks for the BBQ and grill in the back. I wonder if that thing was meant to be the engine?

VictorianQueerLit posted:No, you see, it's not predatory at all when mentally ill people have raised the average for hundreds of thousands of people to be $300 with their tens of thousands of dollar purchases. The majority of people aren't being preyed on which means it's not predatory, somehow. It is unethical to let a sucker keep their money. CIG is the only ethical actor in this scenario.

Bofast posted:By that logic, someone should scam Croberts out of his money, too. Oh, wait, that's what CryTek are doing according to the dumbest of the backers, right? Well, Crobbers scammed 200 million, and now has nothing to show for it, and Crytek is broke, so look to who ended up with the money. It was Gollum, all along.

Scruffpuff posted:
These guys aren't gamers, they are grognards. Gamers want instant gratification, so they show up, devour the game like the content locusts that they are, then move on. Grognards spend hundreds of hours painting figurines for a 2-hour game that everyone agrees is actually not a lot of fun. Grogs love the preparation and build-up, gamers love getting to the end. Collecting spaceships hits the same good feeling as collecting minatures, and just like the minatures, the spaceships get played with about once every 6 months, if that. And anyone with the imagination to pretend that pushing minatures across a table is actually Sergeant Ragefist leading his squad of Death Commandos against the ork horde, will have no problems imagining that delivering a box is a vital, top secret courier mission to save the galaxy. Plus, after buying a couple of armies from Games Workshop, spending £150 on a space ship looks like a good deal. Dongsturm fucked around with this message at 14:41 on Jul 15, 2018 |

Hav posted:Nipple-horns on a Primarch. There's not really a lot of places we can go with that right now. Coutts is entering the wild west of IT startups 20 years late and is clearly lacking any kind of in-house experience that could help them spot a lame horse, but the funny part is only going to happen when they try to get their money back. And even that will probably be done in private, so I will just have to imagine an angry Cockney dunking Chris Riberts' head into a barrel of water while screaming "Where's tha fooking money, ya fooking muppet?!? "
