If only there was a game company that could motion capture Chris Roberts flying toy spaceships around with his hands making plane noises.

It's bullshit. If it's in QA, then they MUST already have something to talk about and show. Especially since, just last week, they were saying 2.0 was "close".

G0RF posted:I've been meaning to ask-- how does the naval combat in this compare to Black Flag? Black Flag was the first naval combat I've played since Sea Battle on Intellivision-- and though the AC plot was stupid, the naval combat, variable weather, and pirate shanties were just an absolute blast. It's pretty good much different than AC. I'm still learning the ropes myself, but having the weather-gauge does matter, especially depending on the rigging of your target. It's almost exactly like PotBS, but it's more challenging because a lot more "real" elements are in play. Reload times are almost on par with the AoS era. Progression is lumpy right now as the devs hash out the best way. They don' t want the meta to rule it. Every weekend there's a Trafalgar massive battle that's streamed on Twitch. I'll just paste a random video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BseiYqcWG4M some battles can last 10 minutes to upwards of a hour. e: The important thing: Yes ramming is possible

The Saddest Robot posted:Come on Derek do us a solid and get us this info. Something actually useful and damning to RSI instead of blowing a bunch of hot air up our asses. I would love to; but I can't. Under strict legal orders on what I can and cannot divulge without it being in a legally filed complaint as that provides lots of legal protections they can't get around. We simply do not want to give them any room for any kind of time-wasting counter-suit, regardless of merit. As I said here, it'd not fun. You have no idea how they freaking butchered my last blog. It was a LOT worse than it turned out. ![]()

Doctor Butts posted:So, Derek Smart, have you made a link between Gem Productions/Gregory Mantell and Roberts/SC yet? proof trying to funnel SC money into a feature film? Yes. It was in my The Long Con blog. And I tweeted this, which made Sandi Tweet this shortly thereafter. Except she didn't realize that I had already linked her to Gemini 42 as one of the companies they created as part of Star Citizen. It's even listed in my latest blog.

Lord_NeckBeard posted:I hope you recover legal bills out of all this, Dr. Smart. I will recover some costs, but not all. I don't even care anymore to be honest. It's not like I'm spending money on JPEG ships. They made this personal and tried to vilify me for voicing concerns about a project. Now they're experiencing what happens when someone - who isn't some unknown rear end-clown on the Internet - gets to experience when you do stupid poo poo like that and think you can get away with it. A man has got to know his limitations.

A Neurotic Jew posted:Ever since CitizenCon ended, either Ben or Jared have been consistently trying to downplay peoples expectations for the game instead of irresponsibly inflating them. They would always have to downplay certain things like release dates, the cutlass, etc. but now it seems like a more generalized tempering. It really does feel like we are approaching the end game. Yes, that's because they've got a new plan to not "hype things up", following Chris's Citizens Conned speech about "no more release dates". They're hosed. Really that simple. And now that I've written about what I think is coming in 2.0, they're probably going to work twice as hard to prove me wrong. Which is great. But that could mean delays. And if they delay it, then they won't have poo poo to show for the anniversary sale that's coming up. They have before 11/26 to pull a rabbit our of a smelly hat. They will fail.

Meta-Mollusk posted:As an ignorant Eurogoon I had to Google what the hell is a RICO case and goddamn, that sounds way more serious than I anticipated. It actually is, and while I'm giving Dsmart the benefit of the doubt, I can't imagine this would qualify for a RICO situation. It's what they brought against FIFA if I'm remembering correctly. It's a pretty big deal in the US.

pioneermax posted:So I had never heard of this game before I got involved with a gaming community (playing another game) and two of the guys there started talking to me about this game, this star citizen which was the "last hope of pc gaming" they were evangelical about it and further discussion lead to them telling me they had spent $5000 between them on "ships". I was of course quite sceptical about this (around July time) and started looking in to it realised CR was involved shrugged my shoulders and my response was "ill buy it when it comes out". Thing is, back when I wrote my first blog in July, I just assumed that was the end of it. Little did I know that it would come to this.
