I'm not saying he's a great guy or anything, but he seems far more natural on camera than most of them. Please remember he cannot get his phone back in his pocket due to the fact his hand/arm /body ratio precludes it. Believe me in the flesh this entity is worse than you could imagine.

My worthless personal theory is that EightAce doesn't actually work for CIG, but has a close relationship/friendship with one or more people within the company. I've worked for hosed companies in the past, and employees will moan about work to their friends and partners after hours to relive the stress. I know I did. It was either do that or become an alcoholic (though the two aren't mutually exclusive). You can also be sure that colleagues are talking amongst themselves about the situation within the company. e: I didn't realise I posted right after you EightAce. It seems rude talking to you in the third person like that straight after you. Sorry. lol. fuctifino fucked around with this message at 17:57 on Feb 6, 2016 |

Here Chris, I put together a roadmap for you. Wait, poo poo, I hosed up the dates. Add a year to everything and it will be just fine.

Just link to the AtV point where they answer the question, "name one thing finished in the persistent universe", and they are like "we can't". Why even split the game up to begin with anyways? Are they going to make you re-buy 2 of....oh...

I would just like to remind everybody that I also predicted the showroom when I posted "Something bad will happen. Soon." In other CIG insider news, some more obvious signals that the company is hosed will be spotted within the next week. Another familiar face will also be leaving- you guessed it- soon. In actual news, my charge back went through. They didn't even ask me for documentation- seems like CIG already has some kind of rep.

I'm starting to feel like SC is really an avant-garde art project attempting to destroy the meaning of language around software development. After ~3 years I think the terms 'open development', 'pipeline', 'design', 'refactoring' and maybe a dozen other words have been so conceptually obliterated that future software teams will be reduced to grunting and rude gestures to describe their process.

The theory crafting done by the Terra Malatora people now seems rather restrained and quaint compared to what goes on in the RSI-forums.
