Why is there Ship AI when everything is supposed to be ships being piloted by actual physical pilots so it would be covered by their incredible AAAA+ NPC AI, surely?

Since there's no actual game in SC yet what the gently caress is even taking up all that storage space? Is everything just completely uncompressed and duplicated a thousand times?

Sankis posted:I bet the Calders get some percentage of the donations and don't care as long as it keeps rolling in. Depends on how long they think the scam will continue. Even if they took every single cent the tracker claims CIG were bringing in they'd be looking at a year and a half just to break even, but CIG need all of that that to keep the dream furnaces burning. So if you cut that to say even 10% of the tracker you're suddenly looking at 15 years to recoup. No way they're that patient. They have to have been promised something big and much sooner than 15 years down the line.

Megalobster posted:I love it when tax payers backed public service """""""""""""journalists""""""""""""" are doing infomercials that promote revisionist history on a scam project, giving a voice only to the approved shills. The intern working on this probably didn't even read the Forbes article. BBC World service is the commercial arm, not the state funded broadcaster arm. CIG almost certainly paid for that, probably as part of their "Look we're totally making a British game give us some more tax credits" plans.

Judge Dredd is just as valid an interpretation of the character and setting as Dredd. 2000AD is more frequently goofy as all hell than it is serious and grungy dystopian nightmare.

To be fair, the opening keynote where they announce all the exciting new upcoming poo poo has been free on twitch for a while now. The 'ad' is available to everyone because duh. The convention itself is just like a normal convention, except only blizzard stuff is there and it smells even worse because the attendees are all there because they enjoy sitting for 10+ hours at a time killing boats and collecting bear asses instead of those people only making up a certain percentage of the gathered nerds.

monkeytek posted:At my short run at squaresoft, the magic sauce was that they had a couple organizational geniuses keeping everything moving and on schedule. It was amazing watching them at work, they could walk into a chaos storm created by the resident creative types and hammer out reason and focus. To me, that has always been the issue with CIG a couple creative "gurus" run everything with absolute power, there is no organization, no planning, no limitations, nothing. Just pure chaos and dreams. It's Daikatana if someone gave Romero a quarter of a billion dollars and just left him to go wild. Daikatana came out though, so it's not a perfect simile.

I like how they keep advancing the date in the game along with the date in real time, this definitely won't lead to lunatics screaming about hosed up lore dates when they forget to amend how long ago things happened in the eventual release.

CIG wouldn't be any more 'professional' if they all went to work in three piece suits and the same applies to literally every profession on the planet. Dress codes are the last bastion of salty old men mad that people can get real jobs now without having to dress uncomfortably for 40 hours a week, they're bullshit and telling applicants we don't have a dress code at my office is one of my absolute favourite things about being a manager.

Sanya Juutilainen posted:Uhhhh... I am sorry if I am thick, but... if you say "Do not use slurs," that would imply that those for which you say: "I am sure you can all think of plenty of other slurs," are included in those (as those would be slurs and you get back to the first sentence)? So basically any time we use newly thought-up slur, we shouldn't use it, because from that moment on it's a slur. That's not a slur, it's just particularly juvenile name-calling. If you can manage to get through the day without saying the n-word then you can also expand that list to include other words that people don't want to hear. 100 years ago it was totally cool to throw that word around left and right too in most places, it's almost as if acceptable language changes over time or something. (Probably because of all those drat snowflakes insisting that people shouldn't be called the n-word, amirite? Total loving head-scratcher that one.) If you genuinely can't express what you want to say without resorting to slurs, whether you think they're offensive or not, maybe what you want to say isn't something that needs to be said.

Scruffpuff posted:OK this is a cool turn. So I picked up Dawn of War II recently, since I liked the original Dawn of War and expansions so much. It's OK, but a bit easy to get through once you're leveled up, and I miss the base-building mechanics. I felt the originals did a very good job of giving you a little bit of base building, without it being a major-league part of the game like Starcraft. I enjoyed the squad reinforcement mechanic and moving units as groups with a leader. DOW2 felt like it strayed too far from that formula. No, they tried to bridge the RTS-MOBA gap with the mechanics (directly controlled hero units, no base building, limited resources) and it didn't stick so obviously they did it again for DOW3 because that's a good idea. The Total War games are also nothing like the classic RTS gameplay of the original DOW (and are also based on WHFB, the lovely boring warhammer flavour) History Comes Inside! fucked around with this message at 17:50 on Feb 26, 2020 |

AbstractNapper posted:It could very well be at a low. And if that's the case, I'm glad. The point is they now assume anyone who questions the project is a goon, they reply like that to virtually anyone who does anything other than circlejerk over how awesome the game is going to be when it 100% definitely comes out for realsies. There are probably still a handful of poop touchers but even if there were some magical way to stop eager dimwits from poking the beehive the redditors would still be seeing imaginary goons everywhere they look.
