What if they released an ipad app for star citizen where you can take care of your commando's needs like pooping so you dont have to do it while playing the game

Oh boy. I bet getting some kind of dumb Star Citizen related app up right now for $10 $50 would be a gold mine for them.

on the topic of unprofessional people making games and stealing assets i just read about divergence (its been around a while, the incidents im going to link happened in january apparently) and saw a post one of its two devs made in response to getting a bad review, thought you guys would find it funny

again this is one of the devs speaking, publicly

he also goes into the comments section on steam reviews of his game and rages out in there a few times

example:

http://steamcommunity.com/id/madoc4214/recommended/422940/

based on reviews it sounds like they just literally stole a lot of poo poo from SWG, reskinned assets, straight up put in sound effects and stuff from SWG

i suspect the reason it hasn't been stomped on is it's pretty small

To be fair to this guy he probably actually did hit Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V or photoshop when stealing assets.

Nvidia's latest drivers have their newest cards running at about 1200mhz just to run multi-monitor displays without even being in-game and supposedly they bricked some people's gpu's with an update a not too long ago, so both companies have lovely drivers right now.

But there are degrees of shittiness, and NVidia seems to have the less lovely then. (2Gb EVGA GTX 760 with current drivers right now). The only real funkiness I have had with them is that I had to jump through a few hoops, including renaming the main executable to "CoDSP" to get Stubbs The Zombie working.

Anyway, the stream archive is up now.

I wish it had been, Derek. I wouldn't have minded a spirited discussion.

D_Smart posted:

I am inclined to believe you because the wanker who was on the stream yesterday was too dumb (his postings); even by your standards. It's just curious that he was bringing up some of your same [bullshit legal] arguments (libel per se etc) here on SA; and clearly - like you - didn't even understand what it is he was saying.

I am willing to give you the benefit of the doubt. But if that was in fact you, take comfort in the thought that you're a loving coward who needs alts because you can't stand up like a man and own your poo poo. Even anon.

IIRC, I never accused you of libel here or elsewhere. There was a person (street roller or something) that mentioned it in an argument quite a few pages back, but I don't believe it was in regards to something you've said.

I think, to some degree, we've all armchair lawyered on these forums; we're allowed guilty of it. But none of my arguments (or counters) have been without merit.

In any case, if I was a coward, Derek, I would have left this thread about 2k posts ago, no? Like I said: I love this discussions here. I'm not going anywhere.

Yep, Chris stated in the most recent 10ftc that by patch 2.7 there would be procedural planets, a fully fleshed out Stanton star system, the nyx landing zone, and seamless integration with the social module. All by the end of this year.

It's not that your arguments are without merit, it's basically a "spirit" vs "letter" thing -- you want to argue the niche details of which drapes to put on the Titanic while it's sinking. You want to argue, tooth and nail, every single loving thing anyone says to you and you cant seem to actually admit fault (or even that you might be wrong) without trying to deflect it somehow.

You're not a poor debate partner, you're a terrible person to talk to and super passive aggressive in a smug way that makes you come off as a douchebag. This really isn't a platform for rigorous Socratic dialogue and open debate where someone's tone and attitude are completely off-topic.

You're a douchebag. You know how I know? You deny being a douchebag. I'm a douchebag. I accept it and try to work with it and grow as a person in that respect. That happened when I was like 16. But I had to admit it instead of trying to break down everyone's argument that I'm a douchebag detail by detail and refute it with logic.

From the moment we arrived on Something Awful, it was clear that we were the superior race. But they couldn't accept that! They wanted to be treated as equals, when they most certainly were not. Graphically, technologically, culturally, we were almost a century ahead of them in every way! We did not choose to be the superior race! Fate handed us our role! And it would've been so much easier on everyone if the Goons had simply accepted their role!

this loving dumbass thinks they can get this all done when they've already demonstrated the only major engine feature they've added are local physics grids, which we can't even be certain aren't janky as gently caress hacks given how many problems they have with people randomly falling out of ships. The drat stations are all oriented the same direction in world space so whenever they add planets either they are going to have to rethink the entire way the engine handles gravity or there is no way in hell you can simply just fly down and land on them in one contiguous space

They'd counter this by posting that video of the commando running around on the amorphous blob of terrain and say that's proof it's working, well hey idiot! he is running around on the north pole which is oriented in the positive z axis! I guaranfuckingtee you they haven't solved making planets have 3-dimensional gravity.
