Thanks for the answers everyone. So basically it comes down to The Crobbler being a moron as usual and just talking shite. Lovely stuff.

I thought you meant Spector, who has started work on System Shock 3, but in fact it turns out that director/programmer Tony Zurovec is on the RSI website credited as the creator of Crusader despite not having design or writing credits on the game.

That's the guy, I thought I recognised his name. Wikipedia credits him as director and programmer, if that's accurate then this is a sad turn of events because I liked those games. Why did you throw your lot in with this dumpster fire, Tony, when you could have been kickstarting a new crusader game? :smith:

What are you looking at?
Years ago I worked at a chemical distribution company as their warehouse manager. I also picked up some extra cash by cleaning the offices twice a week. Vacuuming was a pain in the rear end, because the owner decided the entire office should have a deep pile carpet. Anyway, I started seeing mouse poo poo in the kitchen and called the exterminator. The owner, ever the sensitive animal lover, insisted on glue traps because they're "not as cruel" as the other types. Nobody could convince her otherwise. So one day I went into work early and saw one of the glue traps upside down in the corner and poo poo, that's going to be a problem. I put on some rubber gloves, grabbed a trash bag, and started slowly peeling the trap off the carpet. And that's when I realized there was still a live mouse stuck to both the trap and the carpet that I was now pulling apart. The sound of wet velcro combined with the tiny screams of a dismembered rodent. I tried to do it as quickly as possible, like a band-aid, but it was still pretty loving horrifying. I took the bag out back into the alley and, after trying in vain to bury it, not realizing that there was a layer of concrete under the dirt out there, I just put it in the dumpster and closed the lid.

Anyway, in all seriousness, how does Ben Lesnick take a poo poo?

Was the stuff he said about peeping through a window of a ship and seeing in to another instance possible. I should have known better but he's been talking about it for so long I wrongly assumed it might have merit.

They haven't really added or broken anything new for quite a while now and it's very boring. I don't really care about the private lives of of the employees and really just want to see garbage released and the insane backers convincing themselves it's great and ploughing more money in to it. Hopefully Gamescom will put a few more scraps of janky development on the table.

And I thought the time I felt bad for a centipede, which I'm terrified of, that I accidentally cut in half while killing was bad.

You're still trained to not aim at anything you don't intend to destroy in the infantry as of 2010 at least. There are a lot of rules to follow when it comes to engagement, and that's part of trying to maintain or develop a professional military. Also we always wore three point slings so we just let our rifles rest against our chest if we needed to use our hands. The sling kept it in a position it was quick to engage if need be.

Star Citizen can't even get 2010 tech in their space game, see also drones and remote operated turrets.

Coming to this from 5 pages back: What branch were you "infantry" in?

When I went through training the thought was, in any situation where unknowns were present, you had your weapon up and at the ready while moving through a house/building and really only deviated from that position to avoid extreme flagging of your squad mates. If we moved into a house and needed to utilize our flashlights for any number of reasons, it was violence of action and not sneaking around in the dark that kept us alive. The flashlights stayed on.

It was also incredibly rare to see someone actually using the issued 3 point sling when a one-point provided the same maneuverability without the potential for becoming snagged or looped in your gear.

Instances them. With some creative use of game mechanics I think people managed to get 50? in the same instance for the big Saggitarius A gathering.

Yeah I figured it would be something like that. I assume you can't interact with or "see" into other instances in any way. tbh 50 players in an instance wouldn't even be that bad if larger ships only needed 2 or 3 crew members but croberts decided manned turrets were the future.

I liked you best when you were telling us the Tale of the ToS. That was some mighty fine shilling, I mean it fell flat because no one is buying what you're selling but I can still appreciate the dedication you put into it. Writing so many words for an audience that you know sees right through you speaks highly of your loyalty in face of adversity. I'd hire you to shill for me, man.
