They've taken inspiration from CIG's version numbering? It seems 4 was almost completely skipped, like with MS and Windows 8 -> 10. Did they have a 4 release?

So, is CryEngine 5 the same as 3.8.1? I'm just looking for a solid answer, because the version numbering claims I'm seeing seem a little shady, but I keep seeing 3.8x as being where Lumberyard branched.

Ben Parry over on the Frontier forums says

"Was under the impression Lumberyard was based on 3.8.1.
Either way, the difference between 3.8 and 5.0 is branding (it's like Windows 8 -> Windows 10)"

No. Again, you're not getting it.

This is what my tweet said. It has nothing to do with gains or losses; but rather the fact that, regardless of how small (probably insignificant, given the amount of money AWS makes for Amazon) the CIG payments to AWS are, it's still money from Shitizens, which eventually go to my AMZ portfolio holdings.

Did you know that CIG actually saved Amazon from bankruptcy?
See, if it weren't for CIG, Amazon would never get a break in the gaming industry, and would still have to rely on cloud/hosting related services as their primary revenue stream, and would surely sink in the next 2 or 3 years. But now, they have a rope to cling to.

I didn't know that, but i'm sure some citizen does.

Wonder what they think of Frontier beating them to it?

Ahh don't worry about me, I've got thicker skin than anyone can imagine.

And yeah I'd love nothing more than for some solid approximation of the game to be delivered so that we can blot out the sun with our Auroras, it would be glorious, the best ending for everyone.
Equally I would not be surprised if they burn through all their money and goodwill before delivering anything capable of realizing that, and I was prepared for that outcome the moment I saw it was a Chris Roberts game, given his past history of projects delivered on schedule.

I'm not a hater.

Anyway what's really stood out with this latest video is the number of straight up racist fucks who are mad that a game might make them play as a non-white dude. Literally citing the one single character model on the loadout screen as a sign that CIG are part of some SJW conspiracy to commit white genocide. (sorry, I deleted the really offensive comments) I'm relieved to see none of this insanity on the SC Forums Or Reddit, it's mostly people posting directly on my video on youtube.

Very fair and informative video I thought. I don't post comments on YouTube so thanks for the stuff you do, very enjoyable.
Glad you're not letting the weirdos get to you.

In fact, after talking it over with the mods, Galarox has been given a couple forums upgrades as a reward, and has been asked to make an imgur album and make a GBS post for goldmining purposes.

Excellent job, commando!

"I think you have to approach SC as you would a person you really want to be more intimate with, but due to certain circumstances, whatever they may be, know deep down will never ever come to fruition. If you learn to accept this very real reality, anything you get from that person will easily be viewed upon with joy, even if its nothing more than a brief hi/goodbye. In short, temper your expectations affordably and you'll never be disappointed."

Yup. Alpha 3.0. Too many people on these forums miss the "Alpha" part. You know what Alpha 3.0 is going to be like? A glorious 12 FPS crash/lag fest. And you know why? Because it's supposed to be.

Too many people on these forums expect 3.0 to be some end game that they can play. We're a long (years) long, long way away from playing.

The waiting does suck and for older guys (I'm oldish too) you do have to wonder if you'll ever see the end. But hey....the journey has been......interesting at least.
