Wrecked Angle posted:The bit people say can't be done is the 100 star systems with 1000s of players playing together in the same universe with millions of AI controlled NPCs and hundreds of planets that you can land on and explore every square mile of hand-crafted, procedurally generated landscape complete with unique flora and fauna. It can be done, possibly, if you had hundreds of servers to run them on and teams to code, monitor, and parallel develop on them . But not with a wonky engine, cloud data sharing, and a $10k espresso machine.

Fat Shat Sings posted:Why it might even form some kind of delusional house of cards that should have fallen down a long time ago where a guy stuffed into a too small turtleneck has promised 10x the level of detail and graphic rendering of any other game, with 5,000,000 completely simulated NPC entities, hundreds of thousands of ships, hundreds of planets and outposts in an area a significant percentage of the size of the entire known universe all completely 100% simulated real time with no instancing. In some alternate reality, SC is made and is a success. And in one infographic they release will have '30, 583 Space Janitors have cleaned 34,031,989,123 toilets with no actual player within 100 light years near them'.

On top of that, three browsers. loving learn to unpin and keep poo poo looking tidy. I bet theres a lot of 'Cortana, what is a spline?' Cortana, what is Levels of Detail?' going on.

Young Freud posted:You got me curious and Alien did something similar, but most of the lighting comes from a lamp exterior to the helmet. I assume the Alien suits are for different conditions. It was a mining ship so the lighted ones were for on land or in the mines. The white one was in the escape pod, so only for space walking should it arise.

alf_pogs posted:feelings on Aliens: Colonial Marines being canon? There's a one page comic back in the 90s where the Space Jockey is actually from an alien species with long noses. And they haul alien eggs as they are FOOD for the Space Jockey's, the last frame is one pan frying a face hugger with a spatula. THATS more canon than Colonial Marines. happyhippy fucked around with this message at 23:33 on Jan 8, 2017 |

Inkel posted:Star Citizen cheaters face permaban with no refund (but CIG needs video evidence) OH loving LOL I work for a game company, and I review cheaters and such. And we NEVER take the word of whoever is reporting it, nor any 'evidence' they provide. Sure most are legit, but you get a good salty percentage that will fake or photoshop proof that the innocent skilled guy was cheating. Add in lovely netcode, and chances increase that some people with decent reaction times and skill will end up losing everything to Captain Fatbeard McVapeKirk happyhippy fucked around with this message at 22:26 on Jan 9, 2017 |

nopantsjack posted:Seeing my friend who wants to be a developer poo poo out high-poly assets and features faster than star citizen really gives you a deep disrespect for these idiots. The problem is that they ARE making GBS threads out high-poly assets, but Chris is sperging out and not loving settling for one final design. It's not the artists fault (mainly). They create things, but 6 months later Chris decides that he meant ANOTHER way or Call of Duty did it better, so they have to scrap it and start again. When the bailiffs start selling off the assets in a few years time, we will see the large amount of concept art and such.
