Sperglord posted:The problem with Batgirl, Scott Manley, and the rest of the streamers is that they present an image of Star Citizen which is highly selective. Star Citizen exists in a reality-denying field, everyone talks about what will happen, how ship X or mechanic Y will work. Very few people talk about what exists today and it's relation to other games. The shitizens exist in this happy world of dreams and make-believe. CIG raises money in this happy world too. You could show a picture of godzilla taking a massive poo poo on the burning remains of the CIG offices and some people would say 'meh, a small setback' and empty their college funds into CIGs pockets.

I'd like to see a statistics breakdown of someone trying to play Star Citizen for 4 hours. What fraction of the time has the game running, not running, crashing, etc. But, that'd be more QA work than CIG does, so...

peter gabriel posted:That last line is way out of line for all the early access guys on Steam It's also diabolically stupid - all the money made after the release of a game is profit apparently? I guess the development of these games is paid for with magical fun bucks that spawned out of nothing, rather than from investments and loans that are expected to be paid back from sales revenue. Ben Lesnick is a giant idiot child.

peter gabriel posted:That last line is way out of line for all the early access guys on Steam Also it's insane to think Star Citizen doesn't have any profits. What the gently caress are those ship sales and whatnot, just to keep the lights on? If that's the case (and it seems they are saying as much with the denial of refunds now) how can cultists not see this as a problem? CIG is essentially making just enough money to pay bills, and they're one unforeseen expense away from a disaster? Maybe they shouldn't have spent insane amounts of money on: Moving to LA mo-cap studio time mo-cap studio itself in LA Buying that tacky airplane furniture Super expensive spaceship door thing Ridiculous coffee maker(s) Trips to Monaco Etc. etc. Just that poo poo alone could have saved them more money than I'll probably see in my lifetime. But oh well, they couldn't possibly refund me my $35 dollars, no that money is long gone!

Sperglord posted:So, about half the time you are in the game playing, and the other half is crashing/re-loading, etc? Pretty much, but generally there is a lot of hassle getting in game (infinite loads / server full / other bullshit errors) and once you are in you are in for a while Unless you do something crazy like warp / go through a door, then it's anything goes Star Citizen is the only game I own that I have to hard reset my PC sometimes

I don't get that "drat Americans" thing because I haven't been on here for too long... Regarding the recipe: I'll do, gonna get some ribs tomorrow and do it over the next couple of days. (pure text recipe is boring IMHO). Haven't made them this year anyway. It's actually very easy, and in the US you also get the basic ingredients more easily. Try to find a butcher here who knows what "baby back rips" are and who doesn't immidiately call the police if you say you "need them, by tomorrow".

Are you guys catching onto Mighty No. 9's backers reaction after the game was released and it turned out to be poo poo? All these people saying "This is a life lesson" and "I'll never back anything on Kickstarter again"? Boy just imagine how bad it'll be for Star Citizen when it collapses.
