Guys, looks like Crobberts isn't spending much time coding. He might be the future GM of the NFL Detroit Lions.

Not an MMO player, but a 16-hour a day MMO binge-addict for a year while in his late twenties / early thirties on top of that.

question: anytime beer is mentioned in any reddit thread there's always a few guys who go 'hang on, he did good, thoughtful posting and was a valued member of the community, what's going on?', so who has taken up the mantle? is there any prominent community member posting good, thoughtful posts that the community likes?


also i cannot stop laughing at the palpable incredulity in the tone

Not really that I've seen. Thoughtful posts involve doubt, because how could they not- and doubt is now an invitation to run the person out of the community. There isn't really anyone who has insight into the company and enough of the community's respect that they can avoid punishment for talking about it. Mostly it's just shills and whales congratulating each other or lying to newcomers about game features, at this point. The Imperial News guys are both the subreddit mods and owners of their own SC commentary site, but they are ball-licking sycophants of the worst sort and pretty transparently useless at actually saying anything that isn't a direct CIG press release.

E: The madden gifs are great when catching up. They take very little time to process, and usually result in a laugh.

A daily Madden gif summary of the latest Star Citizen news is a superb idea.

A new Patch! I'll bold the best parts.

Patch Notes posted:

Fixes: Ships
Fixed an issue where the Vanguard Warden would spawn into the Hangar upside down or out of place.
How the gently caress does this even happen?

User Interface
Fixed an issue where the Freelancer could not be selected in the Holotable. Arena Commander Module:
Balance/Tweaks: Components Ships can now only lock/fire 2 missiles simultaneously. The exception is the Origin 325a, which can lock 4 missiles due to the WillsOp Targeting computer.

Fixes: Gameplay
Fixed an issue in Vanduul Swarm co-op where players would lose 2 respawns instead of 1 on death.
Ships
Fixed an issue where the Freelancer was able to be selected for Arena Commander. The Freelancer, Constellation and Retaliator are only flyable in Crusader at this point.
Fixed an issue where you could fly one of our loving ships. Haha, whoops!

Persistent Universe: Fixes: Gameplay
Fixed an issue where ships fell on to the landing platforms in Port Olisar rather than land, often taking damage in the process.
Fixed an issue where it was possible to black out even with G-SAFE enabled, without using boost.
We called this "Pulling A Lesnick"

Character
Fixed an issue where the character loadout was not retained when entering Million Mile High Club.
Environment
Fixed an issue where footstep audio was not triggered correctly when the character was running.
Fixed an issue with missing geometry on one of the Port Olisar landing pads.
Equipment
Fixed an issue where picking up a P4-AR would sometimes cause characters to be flung into space.
Ships
Fixed a number of physics grids issues with the Freelancer that would cause players to fall through the floor occasionally.
Fixed an issue where the Freelancer would not deploy countermeasures.
Fixed an issue where the Freelancer would sometimes spawn with no landing gear.
Fixed an issue where the red icon/ring for “missile lock” was not appearing on the HUD for the Constellation Andromeda.
Technical
Fixed several client crashes in Crusader.
Fixed an issue where character could not perform emotes after transitioning from one instance to another.
We called this "Pulling A Sandi"

Fixed a performance issue related to AI deaths in Crusader.
Fixed an issue where the framerate for all clients in Crusader would drop after a player died in combat.
User Interface
Fixed an issue where the party invite system was not displaying the name of the player who had joined.

Although everyone who hangs out in the Goldshire Inn on the Moon Guard server should probably be on a watch list of some kind.

The only way it could be more perfect, if it does turn out to be her quitting or (I honestly cannot imagine CR ever allowing this) being fired, is that she makes a post about how she was just: "Harassed off the position for being a woman." or some sort. That would be the icing on the cake that makes it magnifique.
Oh, "harassed by men/gamergaters until she quit" is absolutely going to be the narrative that they latch onto despite it being a load of crap.

Look at your clock, and figure out the time difference between your time NOW and 1:05pm ET (e.g., 3 hours and 5 min), then use the bar at the bottom to go to -X:XX (-3:05 in this example)

Anyone have affinity for or loyalty for one jpeg line? I have always liked jpeg, my first upgrade was from my bundled jpeg to a jpeg (jpeg). I have since upgraded my jpeg to a jpeg but have been thinking about melting to a jpeg. I also own a jpeg now and have been thinking about going all jpeg line. LOVE all the jpeg line jpegs.
