Player name tags are in absolute coordinates, so if you stand in a ship and it rolls the name of the pilot on the hud swings into the floor

Mere minutes after discovering the new technology, it was used to send me a crude ASCII dong.


Haha they just made the worst possible choice and tried to shoot a pilot with a pistol. It was as shoddy and terrible as you'd expect, firing wildly at low framerate as the pilot just wandered off.

Friday Crobberts is going to announce SQ42 is done with AAA cast and will be out in December 2016. Then he will announce that SC has a secret build (3.9) and is going into beta - slated for an early 2017 release.

Both games make over a billion dollars in profit and are critically acclaimed as the best pieces of media ever produced. Derek Smart deletes his twitter account after a tearful goodbye and the SA forums get shut down.

Somehow his character's first person perspective was spinning around in correlation with the spinning of the rammed Starfarer he was inside :psyduck:

So bizarre.

e: Or I suppose his head was stationary relative to the rest of the Crysis map and the ship was spinning around him.

I think you're right. Even cultists will be tasting defeat after four more days of this bullshit.

I'm watching this right now with my morning coffee. I think after this Star Citizen is DONE.

The gameplay is diabolical, the audio and fx are terrible, the glitches and bugs are shocking, the lack of enthusiasm on the part of the streamers is obvious, the near continual excuses and promises of future improvements is embarrassing and there is literally NOTHING exciting, new, original, interesting, artistic or even vaguely good about any of it.

To show up at a gaming trade show with this is mindboggling. There's nothing good or cool or promising about anything they are doing with these streams whatsoever.

Just this very minute I watched one of the streamers try to board a ship in space, clip through the back door twice, suddenly teleport into the middle of nowhere and then died 2 seconds later. That was the most interesting thing he actually did from the moment he spawned, it's not like he was having fun and then hit a bug, it's not like he was in the middle of some epic space battle.

This is so bad, so utterly awful that if I was a fan of this project I'd want them to just stop, pack up, and go home.

Steps to glory:

1) Start a conversation with Lando, act interested.

2) Ask him why the screens are facing away and if they are letting people play.

3) As soon as he begins making excuses, interrupt him with the loudest PAAAAAARP you can muster.

4) (MOST IMPORTANT STEP) Record this.
