It's just that it didn't mention which dreams in particular (only those of CR and Sandi for Hollywood and  for a brief moment as he enjoys his man-cave before he gets laid off too).

Xaerael posted:I swear, the next time one of those CIG morons calls what they're doing "Crowdfunding"... People are also acting like it's a new thing for them. They bought a loving $20,000 executive coffee machine for their office earlier this year and the cultists didn't even flinch. They didn't even have 2.0 or ANYTHING out at that point that showed any progress. So now, spending ~$300,000 to outfit their new office with trendy furniture is acceptable to them when they could have done it with much more functional stuff for $25,000 total, tops. This will only escalate. They don't care about their expenses because the cultists are either ignoring it or defending this extravagant spending.

Im hoping that if everything goes tits up that the cultist just double down and say they were happy to hand over hundreds or thousands of dollars to fund chris roberts dream because they dreamed with him vicariously

Loiosh posted:You are correct, I guess I need to state that those patches did address a number of issues, both major and minor. The 2.0.0 release that came out was, as Derek indicated, not at all ready. I think most of the goons here would say that 2.0.0M still isn't ready, and they're correct from their perspective. It's buggy. It has a number of issues, both major (terminal lockup over time, FPS drops from AI spawning, teleporting due to global grid->local grid transactions not handled correctly) and minor. You shouldn't feel like you will be attacked for defending CIG or the game. We tend not to do that around here, let alone encourage it. But it happens once in a while; and we just ignore those wankers who do it. Nevertheless, I agree with you in that even though 2.0 was not ready and they pushed it out specifically because it's all they had for the anniversary sale; progress is still progress. And all the patches, regardless of what they fixed, didn't fix or break, should still be measured as progress. They will never - ever - finish this game. It's not that they won't; it's that they can't. Anyone who looks at the scope of the game promised, and thinks that 2.0 is the light at the end of the tunnel, is a loving idiot. I've been doing this for over 30 years and have built bigger games, I've seen this all before. By the time the dust settles, assuming they survive 2016, this mini-2.0 module will be just as broken, disjointed and detached as all the other modules. They're going to walk away with over $100m+. Unscathed. Because all the loving idiots who kept giving croberts money, thus removing every incentive he has to build and deliver a game, will lose every penny. On a game they could have paid $49.99 for. That moment will be glorious. Me? I just want to know where the money went and because I have a feeling that if/when this all collapses, someone is likely to end up in jail.

I can't decide what I'd like more for the game to come out an be broken as gently caress, pissing off all the backers for the game to be in perpetual beta and having a bunch of people suckered into buying ships for the game to come out and be good after all the goons refunded

I can't wait until a buggy, messy, hollow shell of a game is released on steam under EARLY ACCESS where it will sit in development hell Forever But it's early access guys the actual release will have no bugs.

Please ignore the fact that the codebase underneath the game is a horrible spaghetti code monster and no amount of bandaids will ever fix it short of restarting the game from scratch. Again.

Some tips on Christmas lights and optimal hanging strategies: Just because a string of lights says "indoor/outdoor" doesn't mean you can lay the thing inside of your gutter, completely submerged in water. Have some common sense. Usually just about any hardware or thrift store will sell clips that you can use to hang lights from your gutters, sills, or doorframes in packs of 100 for absurdly cheap, so don't do anything goofy like trying to loop them around your gutters. Sheesh. For hanging string of lights, gravity is your friend. Don't fight it so much! Let the bulbs dangle downward toward the earth, that way there's no chance of moisture gathering in between the bulb and the contact points AND you won't have to worry about sag in the line after its been hanging for a while. Also, be careful on ladders. Always have a buddy available to keep the base steady no matter how "high quality" your ladder is. Unless you want to gift your kids with a trip to the morgue for the holidays I suggest you smarten up. See you in the verse!
