We are all going to have a nice collective laugh when it turns out Ortwin socked away a hundred million into his private Caribbean bank account, and the Roberts will end up dead broke with repossessed leases of everything including the kitchen

The backers lose everything, Chris is broke and a worldwide joke, we have a good laugh, nothing really changes.

D_Smart posted:It's nothing to do with that. For those of us who have developed multiplayer games, it almost always starts out as a single player session with stub code for all the networking bits which you later fill in. And that off-line mode is valuable for testing because without the actual data set earlier on, you have no idea how you need to streamline your code down the road. I hope that some day we get a quality post mortem from this. I’d love to know how many of the problems CIG faced and continue to face are because Chris Roberts felt like everything was an easy task that should have been done in a week. We have 6 years of proof that he thinks everything should have been done quickly.

just putting together the fake salesman, VA work, mocap and the ship itself probably runs into the few hundred thousand, let alone actually getting something like that into the game the pioneer alone probably adds tens of millions of technical debt up in this motherfucker

Lol I couldn't be hosed to watch their dumb Grand Tour ripoff video for the new jpeg until just now. Jesus Christ it's smoothbrains all the way down. Why would you need to do a daily visual inspection on the entire outside of your futuristic space warship? Why would you need to do it floating like 60 feet above the things you're gonna be looking at? Why would you only send one loving guy to do the whole thing? WHY WOULDN'T HE BE TETHERED IN SOME KIND OF WAY?

I’d love to know how many of the problems CIG faced and continue to face are because Chris Roberts felt like everything was an easy task that should have been done in a week. I think it would take a good few months alone to unravel the mess that is Star Citizen. There's so many angles you could go in from; CIG itself, Chris' management style, Sandi taking advantage of CIG for acting purposes, Ascendant pictures, loans, management's payouts, etc. The list is huge. Sadly, it might not ever be done because there might just be too much to analyse. Which is a shame because I don't think this should ignored as a 'oh well, they tried' failed kickstarter; they deserve to have all their dirt brought into the light.

Do I have everything right in my head here? CIG take out a loan from Coutts with a spurious reason (leveraging the whole company and IP in the process), presumably because they couldn't make it to the year-end without the influx of money. CIG stop refunds for a time (or are they still paused?) to stretch out what they have that little bit longer. CIG releases 3.0 well before schedule and with seemingly no fanfare or hype. 3.0 is just dropped into the wild. According to EightAce, this may have been because Coutts had come knocking? CIG begins a 10 Day Sale (unprecedented?) including a whole bunch of 'limited' ships and other lucrative dangling carrots. On the first two days, it makes basically the same amount of money, which is a bit strange, and then the third day drops off hard.

I guess they can make a giant war or something that happens 150 years before the game starts that destroys most technology and makes black people go back to mopping floors and white bald dudes deliver your packages meanwhile my new floor cleaning robot I picked up on black friday is loving cool as hell (even though it disturbs the gently caress outta the cat/dog)

Milky Moor posted:Wasn't that the first two days with Idris and Javelins? Nah it's slightly different. The idris and javelin are put up with the restricted quantities throughout the sale but the "Grand Finale" every year is to put every ship back on sale except I guess the alien ones. They usually match the huge first day numbers with huge closing numbers. It's pretty funny that their yearly sales have been going on so long we can talk about them like this.

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:I found a few books and discovered that programming is complicated, but at this point he's should JUST CODE. Here's a good challenge for him to try once he gets his bearings. I wrote this in Java, but it could be translated fairly easily to just about any object-oriented language. It will force him to be comfortable with the basics, and there are plenty of opportunities to go read about concepts as they come up. He'll have to read up about terminology (like, "hey google, what does unmarshal mean?). It's gonna throw him right into the messy world of searching strings for patterns, but despite that pithy quote about regular expressions, you gotta know em. I sometimes give questions like this out as tech tests for prospective candidates, and have them walk me through their solution.
