This may be scientifically true. But in the collision between scientific fact and Sandi's claims, I'll trust Sandi every time.

Does the trailer feature Mark Hamill prominently and deemphasize Gary Oldman? (Trying to gauge just how finely honed my CIG ESP is at this point...)

Yo guys, brief update, still mashing away at Solar Plebeian, but I had to deal with flying on planes so that always shits up the works. I'm now like 30 pages behind but I assume most of it is shitposting to 2000 and the associated momentum.

Wrapped up a first pass of the UI design/framework, did a bunch of geeky back-end stuff, got the source control repo tied into Unity's Cloud Build service. Did a couple of builds, they worked. Cloud Build seems legit AF I'll be pushing 30g fidelity updates to you cats in no time.

Also did a bunch of legit planning. Finished up the "Colosseum Commando" game mode design spec. Here's a list of systems, ad a little taste of ramming.


I'll post a video tomorrow of the UI and some gameplay.

Any word on the system requirements? Will we need SLI for full ~immersion~ and 64 gigs of ram? 16 core xeon proc?

I'm betting it will feature mocap wireframe models flying off into space, air horns, and Ben Lesnick eating Sandi Gardiner in a single bite. I'm probably as right as CIG is whenever they've tried to answer "When Questions" in the past.

Dolvak is never going to leave /r/starcitizen. He has too much personally invested in being a Star Citizen thought leader. The guy who runs the bitcoin forums and subreddit is a similarly useless and toxic figure in the bitcoin community. He has made all discussion about bitcoin forks verboten, and fanned the flames of a bitcoin civil war.

So if anything, you should be encouraging him to turn into a little dictator. Bullshit rules and heavy handed moderation piss off the 'rational' fans and encourage further trolling. :getin:

Hey, I may be wrong, but I think it was in this one. This is the episode where they talked about their secret insider knowledge of Squadron 42's promotional plans (a big push possibly tied to Rogue One). The game, they said, would come out 3 months after their promotional push started (mid March 2017?).

It may not be this episode though... I hope I'm not sending you into the wrong septic tank to look for that particular turd... If memory serves there were many goons watching it live and Spacetoaster (maybe?) pushed the wrong button asking the wrong question and got a scream before he got the muzzle...

On that INN video I just posted Dolvak is referred to as an "employee of CIG". A characterization he doesn't deny. That's when he started calling Chris Roberts Hitler and saying he saw Sandi tear an employee's heart out and eat it.

Your guys call on that one then. It is against the rules for employees to be a reddit mod in the sub. It was the reason Niko got PGI nuked for Transverse and got all PGI accounts terminated. (you could blackmail him for shits and giggles though)

Dreadnought started around or after SC and looks good - I have been following it somewhat.

Kingdom Come Deliverance is coming out in the summer - you know the project that was mutually helping SC.

According to their Twitch schedule it happened on a wednesday so it was probably a "Play with INN" stream which they dont archive or upload to youtube. They only regularly upload their saturday streams.
