Maybe Ben would walk by every now and then and play the Inception horn noise on his phone.

I'll be really fascinated to see how this all pans out in the long term. When an ~investor~ gets dicked over by a would-be company, they try to recoup their losses, maybe sue the offender, and eventually move on. There might be some hurt feelings. There will probably be some burned bridges. But ultimately both parties are protected by the professional relationship. When backers are involved in most kickstarters there is an understanding that the project might never see the light of day. There are some positive tradeoffs: the money might fund a project that a 'real' investor won't touch. The monies involved are much smaller. There is usually an allure of free stuff or gifts for backers, should the project reach completion. SC is the first project where ~backers~ have given money on the same scale as ~investors~. Nobody gives that kind of money away just because it's fun. Instead of financial payoff they're banking on the idea that this will be the virtual reality they've been denied after years and years of the big publishers flushing away their dreams. An investor rarely cares about the shape of the final project so long as it offers them a return on their investment, but for the whales behind SC the shape of the thing is all that really matters. How do you recoup losses on a dream?

if i could sing reasonably well and could play guitar I would totally record all these songs. Maybe I should practice guitar again. Maybe they should just put it in the game instead IDK

If people are bored with elite, play with goons. Takes a lot of the boredom out of the grind and they do some fun in universe stuff which I can't confirm or deny at this time.

Libluini posted:I have to confess, sometimes I love hearing from people with different tastes. Maybe I'm too curious, but listening to someone describe his day (as long as it isn't boring) is just really interesting. Especially as a contrast to my own view on things. Took me hours of travel time over multiple days to get to the right system (I should've taken my Cobra, not my Clipper.) Then it took over an hour to get to the right coordinates on Merope 5c. Parked my craft, hopped into my buggy and drove to it. There was an Asp parked nearby-- the player was a part of a patrol to keep griefers from blowing up tourists like me and he took it seriously enough to make me smile. We chatted via text a bit, then he resumed patrol. So I got a lot of pics and video. Another player showed up and started ramming me with his buggy while I was in debug mode, then he drove off. I called for my ship to return to my buggy so I could leave-- watched it fly in beautifully and park just over the horizon. Drove to it to discovered it had parked on his Python and he couldnt leave. I enjoyed his frustration for a bit, then sent my ship back out to let him depart. It was a typical day in Elite. I'm enough of a sci-fi game nerd to enjoy the simple pleasures, as they are plentiful. It's frustrating, obviously, that Frontier pushes their lore reveals forward at a snail's pace, and being vehicle-bound is a huge governor on the thrill-potential of the game. And yet it passes a test that few sci-fi games have for me-- making me feel like I'm really exploring in the vastness of space. I can only imagine how much richer it would feel in VR-- and I plan to buy a Vive to find out. I admire Elite more than I love it-- but it gets better with each passing month, which is more than can be said for Star Citizen. By the time Star Citizen fully implodes, Elite will likely have assembled the masterpiece that we see slowly being pieced together. And I expect Frontier will welcome the poor huddled masses to experience the Best drat Slace Sim Ever-- without ever making the claim. There won't be a need, because the other one will be gone.

Sarsapariller posted:Every layer of promised detail reduced the number of commercially available options by an order of magnitude. The number one factor is the netcode, followed closely by the physics code. Considering that I have done all that and more in previous games, and upping the ante in LOD, the problem they have is about designing a game the engine they picked, can't build. And for the type of game he wants, the entire team is on a learning curve. That makes it worse.

Security in the UK studio is surprisingly lax. I just dressed up as a guy not carrying a camera, and I was able to walk right past Sandi like I wasn't even there. I got to glance at a couple of pages of the SQ42 script, reproduced here for your convenience. MARK HAMILL: Where is Bishop? JOHN RHYS-DAVIES: They have him, in the belly of that steel beast. MARK HAMILL: He's captured! We'll have to break him out - I'll ram the ship with these sword attachments on my wings! MARK STRONG: A sword. How human... MARK HAMILL: At least I have an idea, I don't hear any of your plans. Is anyone here to help me or just give me a rash of poo poo? GILLIAN ANDERSON: Why did they assign me to you in the first place, Old Man? To debunk your work, to rein you in, to shut you down... MARK HAMILL: That's not helping. OK lock s-foils in attack position...we will have victory! ANDY SERKIS: And take it for MMEEEE!!! MARK HAMILL: For us, you mean. Victory for all of us. ANDY SERKIS: Yes, we... we meant for us. MARK HAMILL: OK we're getting in range. Let's do this carefully - Bishop is getting up there in years now, we don't know how much he can take. Does anyone know how old he is, anyway? LIAN CUNNINGHAM: Sixty-seven, and when he dies, who's in command? A half-grown boy, the product of incest? MARK HAMILL: Whoa, whoa, where the gently caress did that come from? Remind me never to discuss politics with you. SANDI GARDINER: Look at me! Look at me! MARK HAMILL: OK who brought this bitch along? She keeps getting in front of my ship and obstructing my view of the target. SANDI GARDINER: I'm one of the world's best fighter pilots without a shadow of a doubt and always have been since I was a very small girl... MARK HAMILL: No reward is worth this...
