I mean, it certainly rings true and fits with the state of the game and everything else going on, but you never know. Remember that piece on Mark Kern and why Red 5 was such an awful place to work? It reads like a step by step rethread of that scenario.

Scruffpuff posted:Chris saw BlizzCon, and all the cool poo poo Blizzard has (statues, wallpapers, shirts, etc.). He concluded that successful companies have those things, so he simply bought those things - CitCon, models, murals, shirts, and all the rest - with backer money. Ergo, he is a successful company. This, and also this is the kind of stuff you do to impress clients, or say, investors. It'll be tricky for the liquidators to peel that stuff off though, the new tenants will probably have to paint over it.

How does that even happen? Did they have an enter animation for the buggy use a different and really stupid helmet that obscured player view, then not have the buggy exit reset it?

I've been trolling that wall wrap post since this morning. The mental gymnastics backers go through to justify that sort of expense is...nothing short of remarkable.

I'm now off to find this mythical "Sandi Beer Exchange" Theres a Paste Bin version for easy reading somewhere - I'm sure somebody will post the link in for you. It is, indeed, a bigger tragicomedy than most people understand. Even Ion Storm at its ion stormiest pales in comparison to this-- and not solely because Ion Storm only wasted a fraction of the funds...

I'm now off to find this mythical "Sandi Beer Exchange" Well the one thing I always got from citizens is 'you haven't done your research so you don't know what you're talking about'. I've done nothing but research it now for a few weeks starting with CIG's videos, and gently caress me it just gets worse and worse. I've gone from laughing my rear end off to sheer anger to incredulity and back to laughing my rear end off. I feel bad for the guy here whose brother is wrapped up in it, but man, if that guy isn't sitting down with his bruv intervention style then I just don't know.

trucutru posted:Yeah, I know there is a blue and a red team. But the point of using bright colors is to make them pop. If everything is of a similar shade or brightness then they don't pop anymore. We're still doing a lot of improvement to various areas. I will see what can be done. But we can't go overboard - five years later - just because a few people take issue with something like this. Especially since I use contractors; and when anything is completed, I have to go back and pay for revisions e.g. I've paid for new characters, animations, models etc these past three months; though they were all done back in 2010-2012.

Google Butt posted:lol at that reddit thread claiming the exit interview thing is fake They're idiots. It's in one of my blogs and several people who saw the original post on Facebook, already confirmed it was authentic. In fact, David reached out to me personally and asked me to pull it. So I killed the link I had to it in my blog. Remember They said Chris and Sandi weren't married, and that Chris should sue They said The Escapist article was false, and that RSI would sue They said my blogs were all bullshit and lies, and that RSI would sue (I'm still waiting) They said the Beer emails were fake, and that RSI would/should sue Seriously, need I go on? You're talking about a bunch of delusional SpazSpergs who have no sense of morality, let alone sensibility. These are the people who couldn't give a job at a petting zoo.

I like to imagine something like this scenario occuring one day at CIG: <In the middle of a busy office, Chris Robert is berating a developer about an aspect of SC that that doesn't match his 'vision'.> CR: So why the gently caress does it only work reliably with 16 players? Dev: Because as soon as we try to go above 16 players in an instance, the lag grows beyond what the network can handle, leading to sync issues with the server and a ton of glitches. <CR rolls his eyes.> CR: So loving OPTIMIZE the code! Dev: We have done. That's how we got from 8 to 16 players. CR: So for gently caress's sake optimize it SOME MORE! <Dev looks sheepish. He can feel the heat of Sandi's eyes burning into his back from across the room.> Dev: We can't. The problem is the clients are sending too much data because of the err.... fidelity you insist on having. <CR glares at everyone around the office. No-one dares to make eye contact.> CR: Jesus loving Christ. What do you mean 'you can't'. Don't be a loving defeatist. FIX IT! <Sandi fails to suppress a snigger. Everyone in the office pretends not to notice> Dev: I told you, we can't. It's impossible. CR: For gently caress's sake. Braben did it, and he's a fuckwit, so it can't be 'impossible'. I don't BELIEVE in impossible. <Lensnick waddles into the office after going out for cake> BL: What's happening boss? CR: This Fucker says it's impossible to have more than 16 players in an instance. BL: But we have 24 already Dev: Only with severe glitching CR: Bullshit. If you're not up to the job, get the gently caress out of that seat and let someone who is sort it out. BL: I'll do it boss CR: Shut up Ben <Dev slowly gets up and points to the seat> Dev: OK Chris. Show me how. <Everyone in the office groans inwardly.>

YellerBill posted:I'd recommend less "entirely blue/red" color schemes and more blue/red accents (such as a stripe on the walls/floor) or maybe blue/red lighting. It can also be heavily "themed" without being overbearing. Also, the opposite works as well - you can make everything colour graded to the "team colour", but then use a complimentary colour for the accents.
