Want to say thanks to Mr. Roberts posted:I want to say thanks to Robert on making a great game. Often all I hear is problems and negativitity, but I wanted to share that I am very excited for what you and your groups have done. quote:NOT A COACH... YEP noted. quote:if you only say good job to a child when they become 18 for all their work they do then they will have never grown up with understanding how to give compliments, learn that their striving is worthwhile, and that they are appreciated. if you give good job every 3 seconds they have nothing to strive for because you hand it on a silver platter. if you are working on an engine, and your boss comes over and says "Rorik, great work on the cylinder , that bore looks good, will it run as well" and you say "yes sir" , "good thats what I like to see, tell me when your done", you feel honored that your boss cares for your work. Same with CIG. they have gotteen over and over and over bad crap from people on this site, and look at this post, negativity, even your post that says until they are done you will not say good job.

give praise to much to child result in many who say can you even accompliish? but Robert gives all and get no praise. like in hometown Brno we say "The man who catch fish with a hook makes a rubber blade of himself." praise for Robert now lacks, lets announce what job he does. step aside from gentle attacks on this accomplish game

Is Star Citizen the first quadruple-A game? posted:The only comparisons are GTAV and RDR2 but that's from a purely monetary standpoint and they dumped half their budget on each game in to shilling/marketing. quote:I just want to focus on this point. You're right that no studio would make a comparable project because SC/SQ42 is essentially a DARPA project for gaming. Super high-risk, insanely high reward R&D gaming. They are trying to build a game that does what every other gaming dev doesn't do because they have shortcuts (which take away the "immersion" factor). quote:I'm confident that CIG will license their engine out to other companies. quote:Ditto, probably starting with smaller shops building out systems.

What is it about video games that make people think they have a direct influence on the mood and psychic wellbeing of the people making the games? Guys, we can't point out the glacial pace of production for this $300 million+

Golden Bee posted:Gigantic space empires, in a game where you can barely get enough ppl to fill a Motel 6 dining room. CIGs big selling point for the game has always been "dream about what we might be!" rather than "look at us now." This has a few great benefits CIG has been able to cash in on very well. Obviously it brings with it the great defense to "tier 0" despite that tier 0 probably being as good as it's going to get if it ever gets in at all. No game can compare to the possibilities of every persons dreams for the biggest space game ever conceived that isn't even withheld by the needy shortfalls of a publisher. The sky is the limit and CIG will make it happen (not even might, but definitely will). Meanwhile the actual game is nowhere near any of the dreams. Right down to the point of the player count being less than an average fortnight match on a Nintendo Switch. None of it adds up to the amazing depth people dream up, but I think a majority of people with the dreams are also not playing the game at all. It's super easy to dream and look at all the pretty pictures and videos and imagine it all.

colonelwest posted:Lol at all of these idiots clinging to “physicalized everything”, “no cheats or tricks” and “Chris is building a universe from the ground up”. Not only will none of that make Star Citizen a fun game, but CIG itself is walking back all of those promises, they’re just refusing to acknowledge it. I think one of the biggest games to do this "physicalized" thing is Bethesda and their recent Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. However, they still did have your character have an inventory that destroyed the object in the world and keep its stats in your inventory, which I'm not even sure if CIG has at this moment. But even with them being experts in this field, with multiple games over decades of development on pretty much the same thing with a different coat of paint, the games -still- big down to almost unplayable by the time you are close to the end, with crashes and loading screens that take multiple minutes... in part because they are remembering where you kicked a bottle in the dark in the tutorial dungeon and you can go back there and find it exactly as you left it. CIG could try to learn from that... but I don't think they did. They talk about but don't do it, and peruse it like a buzzword without acknowledging the complexity and even if it's important in a multiplayer game. Once you add in more players, persistence of the environment isn't something you really want to have. Unless you want to be the player who gets involved in the game after 2 years and all the dungeons are bare, the only thing killing your FPS is empty magazines and broken guns that you can only kick as you wade through them, and there's nothing for you to find except the realization you came too late and there's no fun for you anywhere. Not even counting the time it will take to get this data across a network for no reason, and how many crashes it will cause people.

The Titanic posted:CIGs big selling point for the game has always been "dream about what we might be!" rather than "look at us now." This is why I think CIG has no incentive to actually complete the game, even if they had the ability to. The actual "game" is a web based text adventure where you use the power of imagination to create a personalized fantasy simulation and talk about how great it will be when it eventually manifests. If CIG actually releases a final version of SC, then its game over and the fantasy crumbles to dust

Fidelitious posted:I just really can't deal with these names anymore. Is there going to be a resurgence in obscure Greek mythological names in 800 years? And then that ends up paired with a last name that comes from a major chemical component of gasoline? There is zero thought put into people's names by the 'lore' team. Gotta keep up with the stupid Star Wars names cause the crobbear has 0 imagination. They are doing the stupid roman empire in space thing, so there should be a resurgence in roman style names at least. Everything in this game is just whatever looks good this week to flog to idiots.

Yeah, but that's not unique to video games. Like, there's whole genres of entertainment dedicated to making fun of bad movies but you never see people trying to shut down criticism of film because it might make the key grip sad.

I am doing my own games in here. I am setting up a 2 team rugby game, shooting multiple video (movies) that will come out soon, writing up papers to help my org in different aspects of game play, such as search and rescue, etc. See I think most people want a game handed to them on a silver platter to do everything without the work on such a thing, or the willingness to help (not monetarily) . most that I speak with just want to go shoot em up and mine, and trade. those to me are aspects of the verse. instead go to the ocrean and sit and watch the sun rise while doing my homework or project. that to me makes it AMAZING. have you been to the ocean in the game. its amazing. 95% of the people I speak with didnt even know they are in game, let alone beautiful ones.

Other games have taken everything else, so non-teleporting elevators is all they have left. (No one show them the old arcade game Elevator Action.)

Bubbacub posted:I still don’t understand why anybody would care if elevators teleport or not. Yeah, its a pretty clear indicator of how extremely unrealistic most of the SC fans are. Because the only way that's something that you could even notice is if the game makes it possible for someone shooting at your ship to happen to blow a hole in the wall of the elevator and you get sucked out into space mid-elevator ride. But only if they hit the specific area your elevator was travelling through. But making that work is an incredibly insane amount of effort for very very very little tangible gains.

It's time for another episode of INSIDE STAR CITIZEN The show that most definitely will not take you anywhere near the inside of Star Citizen! * Disco is doing a skit about the offices being empty, skip skip skip * Holy poo poo it goes on for like 4 minutes * There's some new HUD style, they've worked very hard on it, nobody cares, this is like the 4th redesign of the UI * "We'll be handing all of this over to the vehicle feature team so they can actually start to implement it." I sometimes feel really bad for the vehicle team * Oh jesus Lando is back with more halloween skit, shut the gently caress up * Now some dev is rambling about resource distribution within a ship. This is the kind of thing that would have been neat 7 years ago. Now, my only thought is "You're going to have to rework every loving ship to do any of this. This will never make it into the game." * Summary of the resource system: When you have low resources or a damaged distribution system things will turn off. Elite managed to do this without having to give 8 years of powerpoint presentations. * Oops that was it, Lando does more lovely vamping Big sale next month!

Star Citizen is the greatest example of bikeshedding in the history of mankind. Thousands of hours spent re-re-redesigning the UI and working on physical elevators but the game runs at 10fps, you can't walk without falling through the ground, and servers cap at 50 players what are priorities lmao
