LOL, yeah, before ultimately crashing into a station and taking everyone in the multi-crew ship out because you took so long to recover whilst in the pilot seat and nobody else could take control to avert catastrophe...

Idea for another vid? ;-)

No, seriously, double the time, five times as much money, for one fifth of one of the two games you were supposed to do.

If being on-time, on-budget, and delivering everything is 100% efficiency then they have achieved an impressive 1% of it. You don't see that kind of stuff everyday, it is really impressive.

This is a promise that would make sense to walk back, since having ship-external physics impact the ship-internal physics could be pretty tricky. They should just remove the blackout altogether and straight up say "Its not working out, we'll try it again some other time." Its not as if blacking out is a thing in other space-shooty games. Why do they want to die on this hill?

I don't think that CIG "get" that its better to just own up to the technical difficulties. "I'm sorry. We promised X, but it turns out it is going to be much more difficult than we thought for Y and Z reasons, so we're going to have to cancel/delay it." It happens in software projects; I've had to do it myself. It sucks and people are angry but its much better to get the info out earlier and let them get over it . Otherwise you waste developer time, and your stakeholders are even angrier because not only are they not getting their feature you also led them on for months and wasted their money.

What they should do is what you say, shitcan the black out stuff completely, but you just know that Chris thinks that is 'totally rad and cowabunga duders' so no way they can do that.
From what I have seen so far their physics engine does not do what they want it to do, so I hope they stick with it and gently caress it up more.

Interesting, they were once saying the exact opposite, that g-forces would apply on everyone in the ship - guess that feature got cut as it would have taken too much time.

This whole situation has me thinking of a kickstater board game.

The aim of the game is to make as much money on a crowdfunding website as you can (against other players) with the most off the wall idea and promises. The person who makes the most money, while keeping his backer delusion high and his refunds/coke addiction low, wins.


EDIT: also there should be a embezzlement mechanic which is needed for players to claim funds towards winning.

So... the shitizens have literally just devolved to posting bullshit about Uncle Derek now (not that they weren't before, but they're calling him a massive sexist now).

https://www.reddit.com/r/DerekSmart/comments/435y5g/derek_smart_locked_thread_without_reply_regarding/

In this thread, they're calling him a sexist for having skimpy female armor. One of the dudes tweeted him about the "hypersexualisation of female characters".



A picture of the armor is below. There's literally no skin showing. And his game has women in it unlike Sausage Citizen :psyduck:

That's actually very likely to be the case. Just like the mystery game crashing shotgun that appeared from somewhere and thwarted multiple attempts to remove it from the map.
