Just wondering... When you buy fake jpgs you buy in USD? When you refund you get USD back? If you're outside the US, say UK, does that mean it's possible you could earn a tidy profit by refunding?

Warhawk109 posted:This happened to me when I refunded. All purchases were in USD, and made when CAD was close to par. My refund converted back to CAD when it was around 70 cents US. So yea I made out pretty good, but it was probably only breaking even in the end because I was a dumb subscriber. Just as a quick calculation which may be well off... Say you're in the UK and bought a ship at $500 in Sept 2013... Exchange rate then was 0.64 GBP to 1 USD, so it cost you £320. Exchange rate today is 0.77, and so refunding today would net you £385. A nice £65 profit. ![]() I have no idea how that compares to say sticking it in a bank. reverend crabhands fucked around with this message at 18:45 on Sep 14, 2017 |

google cache : http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:http://www.pcgamer.com/star-citizen-backers-obtain-a-45000-refund/ The last line "We've reached out to Cloud Imperium Games for comment, and will update this article if we hear back." Which implies a notification from PCGamer to CIG about the article going up. So presumably a response and an "update".

The ad hoc panic-scramble that has typified their Game Dev process for years is manifestly obvious from his bizarre pep talk with the befuddled LA Devs. From ~8:48, that baldy dev certainly seems to have some questions about what Erin is proposing.

On the choice of CrYeNgInE. Clearly Cryengine's having trouble coping and yes it's clear it was a lovely choice. But would it be fair to say, for the originally proposed Kickstarter, Cryengine was probably actually a reasonable proposition? That had the scope not expanded, all that have been proposed was absolutely achievable using Cryengine?

D_Smart posted:Yes. It's clearly discussed in The July Blog Aye interesting. It's the notion that Cryengine was actually a decent choice for the original proposition that I find interesting. Folk often slate CIG going with Cryengine but the reality is there was probably no issue with that (given the original scope). But then scope creep, and in the rush to promise the world no technical vetting was ever done to verify what was being promised was actually acheiveable. I mean if you can do one base, then why not 100 in 100 systems, it's all just more of the same right? You can see this line of thinking when Chris talked about networking. I don't have the link but I remember him talking about getting 10 in an instance, then 20 then 50 then 100, then jumping to 1000 and even 10,000. Like it's just more of the same.... easy! SC really does seem to be a case of Chris Roberts not understanding game development.

To be honest I'm thinking the hoverbikes is a sign of what CIG will deliver. So some sort of planetary traversing arrives, but there's no way to traverse. ![]() Unless you pay real life money's. ![]() This is why more lovely hoverbikes.

Yeah I don't get it. I thought the new Star Trek was good. In context : - I like original Trek (though am a bit young for that) - Stark Trek Next Gen was awesome (though some episodes have not aged well) - Deep Space 9 loving rocked, though not rewatched - Star Trek Voyager was the loving worst - I dislike the JJ Abrams films, they suck But new Star Trek is good. And the Klingon moans, it was the same when Battlestar Galactica came out. reverend crabhands fucked around with this message at 08:16 on Oct 1, 2017 |

Viscous Soda posted:IIRC the first thing I searched for was Game Genie codes, followed by shareware games. Of course, the first access to the internet was on a public computer in my High school's library, so that might have had something to do with the G rated nature of my Altavista searches. Once I got a dial-up connection at home, well... Yeah I spent so much time searching for variants of chess games. What happened.

XK posted:If I need to read your digital manual to play your game, you've already hosed up. It just means you're doing a simulation. When you try to base a game on "how it works in real life" then poo poo starts to get complicated pretty quickly. Something like Elite Dangerous is a decent example, a poo poo tonne of keyboard bindings, but IMHO it's required. This can be difficult for people with short attention spans. reverend crabhands fucked around with this message at 21:33 on Oct 1, 2017 |

Eldragon posted:Please tell me more about how elite simultates things as they work in real life. Which aspect? I mean going right to the deepest level of it, for ED it starts with an assumption that death is the ultimate punishment. And right from there, right at that stage it all fucks up, and so to make the system "work" then requires layers of complexity adding on top. This is how you end up with Suicidewinders, and griefers, and all the non-obvious and confusing rules coming in with 2.4, rules which are gonna require either a manual or community support to understand. Powerplay is probably another good example of trying to keep it "real" resulting in it becoming overly-complex, confusing, and so requiring some sort of documentation to understand. The BGS too, again the background sim tries to simulate what would actually happen when systems go into war, or famine, and is pretty inaccessible to players, except those that sit and "read the manual" on it. In the end a game and a simulation are at odds, because ultimately it fundamentally IS a game. reverend crabhands fucked around with this message at 21:51 on Oct 1, 2017 |

Rugganovich posted:No. What means this????? So I have one of those Objective2 amps. Not the jdlabs one but they're all the same, on their page it says : quote:LOW OUTPUT IMPEDANCE So low impedance is good (or bad)?? Or maybe you want as low as possible but within 1/8th? On the tech specs bit (https://www.jdslabs.com/products/35/objective2-headphone-amplifier/) it says "Output Impedance 0.54 ohms". So I can only drive a 4 ohm headphone? The headphones I have (ATH-40X) are 35 ohms it seems. ![]()

Toops posted:I'm free!!! I struggle with this at work. Ultimately our merges revolve around code review, there's this trade off between between getting stuff back into main quickly to avoid the inevitable conflicts and not wasting people's time by having them review multiple pull requests (where the code may change). In the end if what you're working on is reasonably big then it seems hard not to stay out of main for a decent time. I mean you can break it up and work in parts then push those, but given all these parts are likely related, you're just then looking at have to make changes to what you've already merged in.
