Can someone explain to me why they need to launch ships from a carrier as if they need to pick up speed and create lift?

It's space. Just kick the thing out.

They mocapped (apparently multiple times, including one karate/hilarity version) a guy on the deck doing some kind of flight check. Why.

Why does the ship need to go fast? Why. What the hell is wrong with these people?

Did no one say "hey um it's in space so"

Anyway, happy Friday everyone.

Because this is Star Citizen and Star Citizen is made by Chris Roberts.

Because Chris is a creatively bankrupt hack.

Chris doesn't understand how space � or indeed physics in general � works.

Why did you get banned from that other website only you and Derek use? You should go talk poo poo at r/dereksmart since they don't seem to like you very much and it might be funny.

The problem with that is the r/ at the beginning. There is a limit to how much I'm willing to debase myself, and below that limit, there's roughly -∞ and then there's reddit.

for the laughs.

Join the club. I got banned for basically the same thing. Apparently you can't tell someone they're lying. Or something.

He probably would have just put you on ignore if you proved him wrong.

There will be no issues maintaining development and servers if SQ42 and SC are good.

ZenDesk? Yeah they changed my password and made it so that I can't reset it.

EDIT: Maybe something hosed up. I'll check again.

They're just going to gently caress you around and blame their response time on the Holidays and/or how hard they're working on the next livestream or something.

Beer got emails from sandi that he posted on imgur, knew about the special snowflake customer id types, but only at the end of 2016 after they banned him for life years ago did he ask for a refund?

I believe most of his money has been out of the game for a long time.

I didn't read the thread today and just finished watching the livestream and I'm blown away. I'm sure everything I want to say has already been said but I've been following this poo poo-show since the Kickstarter and I sincerely think that today has been one of the worst things that has ever happened to CIG.

Yeah, he was like the easiest person to wind up ever, even when I was trying not to cause drama.

I think he was just trying to get a lot of people to buy in because if I recall correctly he made quite a bit of money "upgrading" LTI stuff to Goons.

first with a funny edited title and then upvote it until it gets to the front page.

Did you miss the release of the long awaited tactical, lethal multiplayer shooter with zero gravity elements, Star Marine?

Because that does indeed run in 60fps, likely by using vanilla CryEngine netcode

I guess so. I'll have to check it out.

There are definitely less components left stranded in space and fewer stationary avatars than in the original release of 2.0. I suspect they weren't clearing the objects when people disconnected in the past and that eventually the server fell over but that's just a guess.

To my knowledge those models were actual other players actually playing the game. This might explain why you don't see them anymore.

Have any of the streamers and/or bloggers had any mental breakdowns since I went away? The last thing I remember is INN splitting up and WTFO being upset he wasn't invited to generic streaming event #239.

Turned on WTFO's stream. He's playing the multiplayer shooter thing. Everyone has over 100 ping. His FPS went from 140 to 6 in a second somehow. He died a few times while My Chemical Romance played in the background. He says after this game he's going to go into the PU but he doesn't know what the patch changed. I don't know if I can make it until then.

Some dude has subscribed to him for 27 months. That's like $135 to my understanding. Makes me cringe to think he's done his little dance thing hundreds of times now.
