The worst thing by far about Star Citizen is that they've single handedly potentially destroyed any faith people will have in a project like this. I used to play a game called Jumpgate back in the day which was a skill based MMO with factional warfare. It was amazing and a direct copy of the game would have probably been insanely successful given the potential for whaling in this genre / market.Inacio posted:https://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizen/comments/hiji2d/today_my_reminder_bot_of_3_years_ago_pinged_me/ big yikes from me

Dementropy posted:[i]. And who knows, maybe Reddit considers Star Citizen supporters who don't like being harassed as some kind of majority and then it is perfectly okay to be harassed according to the updated policy. You can glean an amazing amount of information about this person's politics via this dogwhistle.

Considering "They are talking poo poo about my favorite video game" harassment might be the most laughable thing I've read this week. I mean, what's their point anyway? SC had another record funding year and is the best game ever made, development is progressing fine. Why do they care about a few thousand people on the refund sub?

rePool posted:Teach me obi-wan. I'll buy an Idris! Ok, first you need to open two tabs. On the first tab you go to the first post you haven't read and on the second tab you go the the last page of the thread -7 (So right now it would be page 903). Then you read seven pages on the first tab and all seven pages on the second. When you are done, on the second tab you jump 7n * (i+1) pages back, where i is the number of iterations of this simple algorithm you have completed. Since you have completed but one iteration then you have to jump 14 pages back. And you continue to do this, alternating between the tabs every seven pages until you finish reading the thread. SIMPLE! Famous game developers, blog posters, and something awful founders vouch for this system (I hope you get better soon)

an actual frog posted:A mate of mine in the industry got an unprompted CIG job interview offer via a recruiter. He showed me the email: full of the usual puffery selling the project as this big epic thing, a chance to make your name on a AAA project, huge budget, awesome team, etc. etc. the works. They didn't name the project or developer so he replied something along the lines of "if this is for star citizen don't ever contact me again". https://twitter.com/CloudImperium/status/1277645817084403713 Mirificus fucked around with this message at 23:53 on Jun 30, 2020 |

7+ years into development and failing to produce anything of worth. - Hey, we probably need a lead producer to drive us to deliver goals. You know, goals, those things we were supposed to have accomplished 5 years ago?

I needed someone to help me on the set, to tell me hey Chris I know you want to do these 10 things but we only have money to do 5 things really well. So let's pick what they are and knock them out of the park and cut the others. This is what a strong creative producer does, and its what I've tried to do for other directors I've worked with over the last 10 years.

If I shipped 2 games before and saw this, I wouldn't touch it with a 100 ft pole. Also, this dude is probably in charge of layering on the fidelity. No worries. Buy an Idris.
