A crucial cinematic scene right before Admiral Bishop’s speech in the UEE senate got a major upgrade from our side. The work on that is still ongoing.

It seemed crucial to Chris and Hannes that we wanted a bigger canvas for the tragedy of these planetside scenes to play out on. Frank, our Senior Env Artist for Cinematics was quite busy building rubble pieces and other things we don’t want to spoil right now.

this pretty much guarantees that Chris recently sent back work because "the rubble isn't detailed enough"

"JURASSIC PARK!"

What the gently caress is this guy talking about 'the ships are priced on their component value'? These guys really are loving insane.

Peter, please hear my words through some kind of mystic, space-physics, voodoo. There is no component system. There is no 'functional utility'. There is no balance, or fighters, or modular rooms or any of that other bullshit. There is no game. There are just pixels and words on a screen and in your head... and they are lying to you.

As usual, I think I'm wrong.

I'm not entirely sure what's the criteria but there is some sort of fuckery afoot. I been messing with several accounts, some of which untraceable and there are certain people that my votes won't affect. I can up/down most goons for example but certain people/posts/threads (I haven't figured what) I just can't affect at all even with accounts with positive karma.

I can't imagine attempting to have a conversation with that man. Wing Commander was... a game, I guess? Mostly OK? Sort of the "Crysis" system test of its day. I don't remember any of it. I remember everything about Tie Fighter. Sorry, Chris, you fail the "is it memorable" test.

I played the first two Wing Commander games and I have much more vivid memories of playing this game that I have of Wing Commander. loving space cats just didn't do it for me even as a dumb teen.

It's just so amazing that they're soldiering on. Where's the economy? Item and material crafting and acquisition? Currency rate and controls? I mean gently caress every persistent game from WoW to EVE to Pokemon are based on the underlying economic activity. Is there anywhere they even detail how this poo poo is supposed to work, even a fever dream? I can't loving believe the amount of money thrown at this. Smdh.
Even if suddenly a wizard magically unfucked this piece of poo poo engine they have this game would still take 5 years to finish at the rate they are going.


It's incredible, there is now much more dissent in the CIG forums than in the reddit echo chamber.

I haven't really had a flash of inspiration like I did for the original :/

I'll brainstorm some poo poo and see what to do. Anything past the original I think would need voicework or a script or something.

The station is pronounced “poe-arrp” (stress on both syllables; short, open a-sound), not “pa~arp”.

I'm not so sure about the stress on both syllables. If you asked the locals it would probably be more like 'PEOW-ahhp'
