Looks good. I have downloaded the single player tutorials and am working on the full game right now. Too bad I can't play through the single player stuff while downloading the actual game. Also, I have no idea how you guys are playing with game pads. I tried a dogfight and immediately went to the garage to dig out my flight stick. I don't have my X45 anymore so the Logitech Extreme 3D Pro will have to do for now.

Some idiot got a court to buy into his class action lawsuit against Sony because of a resolution misrepresentation regarding Killzone: Shadow Fall. Of course there is some Games idiot who feels this is worthy of time and money. I bolded the especially hilarious part.

The argument is over native 1080p vs 1080p period.

As far as "nobody was hurt by it," no, nobody was physically hurt by it but that doesn't mean it isn't (potentially) a case of false advertising which can have a financial impact on a person. Presumably, especially if they felt strongly enough to go to court over it, this particular person based their purchasing decision at least partially off of the claim of native 1080p multiplayer.


The vast majority of law involves minor things.


Someone not suing over something before doesn't mean it isn't valid.

It's also entirely possible they will lose the case. This is not a declaration of victory. It just means that it is going to continue forward and that SCE's dismissal argument was flawed.

Apparently they scrapped the old version and went all in on a new one which is not as polished. Still fun.

Seriously, it's still the best PC game ever made

That said, Elite is cool, but I honestly think the Star Citizen dog fighting alpha is way more fun combat-wise, Shame they'll probably never make a proper game of it considering the management running SC is dead set on insane levels of insurmountable incompetence.

They had to make a separate design studio so Chris Roberts would have an excuse to move to LA so his failed actress wife could try and get work, for fucks sake

It's a symptom of that problem. Essentially its what happens when an idea-fairy runs a project. They have 4 separate studios under their banner, of which 1 is SUPER good at what it does, and shockingly enough is ran by Roberts' brother. There's another that' not bad either, and it was supposed to be the flagship studio, but it got left behind when CR moved to LA from Austin, the other two just dick around and make terrible weekly videos and bad netcode for a game engine that was only designed to support 16 people at a time.

The best part is that the community manager is a fat loving moron who is still really mad IRL about how Goonfleet hosed him over in EVE (holy poo poo, they made an emoticon out of him :lesnick: , and all the unpaid moderators seem to be really angry furries, so it has to be the absolute biggest mess of an official forum I have ever seen. I honestly hope Star Citizen releases as a good game where I can do Newtonian physics modeled space fighting, but I don;t have much hope.

Eh, the community is awful and the development team takes way too many ideas from them, but honest to god the actual game play that's available is surprisingly good.

edit: seriously, try and watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stCYtoQcdx0

Everything about this, from the fat guy stumbling over basic words and the unnerved tone and really bad banter of Chris Roberts' wife. It's literally the worst poo poo I have ever seen made by people collecting a paycheck. And "people" are paying to have these made and feel good about it.

Well then. I still hope the game fails only to spite every idiot who donated large sums of cash to it.

That community manager is a goddamn scrub. There's tons of college kids with PR degrees who'd do the work for cheaper and put out a better product. Sure, go ahead and hire the goon, though.

How are you doing that? Docking is legit easy. Work the approach in pieces. First line up, fly straight in, adjust, and land.

Same. Oddly enough the goons in star citizen are probably the most amiable and realistic people in the community, and have calm, rational and realistic expectations for the game. I've got a $180 space ship, so I still hope it comes out as something I want to play :smith:

i vaguely recall there being a SA goon spreadsheet and some dumbass dropping at least $10k.
the goon gamedev who is making kinetic void also dropped multiple thousand dollars on star citizen, and at least $500 on mechwarrior online.
