I remember the Star Citizen cult claiming that Amazon grabbed a whole bunch of stuff from the "Star Engine" that CIG brutalized out of the shambles of CryEngine. Amazon were quick to claim that nothing CIG had done was used, I wonder if they lied. Sure would explain a lot.

Devor posted:By definition, merging a server with 5 people on it is only helping 5 people. Okay, you do know that if they merge all those tiny serves into one of the servers just under the threshold, it might push player count over it. That way, not only does the five poor sods trapped in a wasteland of a server benefit, so could the hundreds of players on the "almost enough" servers. Everyone could potentially win.

So it seems to be worth the money, and apparently it doesn't burn any more gpu's, thanks! Yeah, but on the other hand, they've stopped player trading several times, the economy has crashed in both ways several times, there's fairly obvious signs of "let's just add more grind to keep the brain worms happy" patches, the support team ranges from Riot Games to insane and the title of the thread is LOL AND LMAO. But hey, if it's heavily discounted, go nuts and feed the brain worms.

Not seeing any influence on the steam numbers yet. Shouldn't be surprising, everyone that would buy this mess of a game have probably already done so, everyone else that care have been endlessly mocking since the first time player trading was shut off.

Tiny Timbs posted:I’m sure the process they have to merge servers isn’t simple or easy but then you get to the question of why they didn’t design the system to support merging from the outset, which is the same as asking why they didn’t do a good job designing the game. The game uses some bastardize version of loving CryEngine, which was originally designed for limited player First Person shooters, then Star Citizen went and did Zeus knows what to the poor Engine to get MMO poo poo to work, then that monstrosity that "Chris Roberts" programmed himself (Satire) was sold on to Amazon and became Lumberyard. And Amazon has now handed it over to, of all things, the Linux Foundation who'll butcher the code for parts and try and make the viable pieces into an Engine that isn't total poo poo. So the process probably requires the use of animal sacrifices and a phone call to a German company that only answers to a lunar calendar written by Druids!

TheAgent posted:Just FYI, Star Citizen and Chris Roberts never touched anything related to Lumberyard. All they wanted was a free use license of older CryEngine builds (3.7 and 3.8 specifically), which Amazon granted them so they didn't have to honor any prior contracts with Crytek. No code or "improvements" were ever integrated into Lumberyard from CIG. Ahh, sorry forgot that CIG lies constantly, my bad. The New World Engine is almost certainly still a total nightmare to work with.

Yeah, but it's an industry that never learns and we get to laugh at it. It also plagiarizes a lot of things that probably shouldn't be stolen.
