When someone sells a company and the buyer has the condition that everyone can stay except the previous owner, who can no longer be an employee or in any position of power, how is that not being fired? How do they spin this how Roberts did not bankrupt a game development company? He had to have a company buy it or the game was dead forever and wouldn't be finished because he was already massively late and over budget. What research is going to change that?

We imply a lot of thing. We imply that we'll go outside and have face-to-face interactions. We imply that we know how to cook things. We imply that existing backers will grief the hell out of people in SC if it becomes a real thing. What I'm saying is, I like pgabz and his altered .cfg files.

Why does a site doing news have a "Director of Fiction"?

I hope everybody who celebrates Thanksgiving has had a good one. It's kept me away from the CIG drama for a while. You could say my timeline was refactored for the holidays.

Beet Wagon posted:Yeah sure, I guess if you're into games that are obviously inferior to Chris Roberts's cinematic masterpieces. Did any of the Lucasarts games feature giant downsy cat puppets? I didn't think so Seeing bullets will be models, so will poop. They are saving showing off the 200 million poly poop model (with space corn nugget!)for next Citcon.

Check out this 'Grand Admiral' In what world can you look at recent CIG offerings and think 'the pace has picked up'? It's just a crazy delusion brought on by the sunk cost fallacy. 2.0 was released a year ago. What noticeable improvements have been brought to the PU in that time? Clothing and a grotty little pirate outpost. 2.6 is overdue and if you ignore Star Marine (which was supposed to be released 18 months ago) even that adds gently caress all of value. So yeah, start looking forward to the 3.0 release for when, if the promised features are delivered, Star Citizen will actually enter the state where it can be called an alpha, as opposed to a tech demo. Shame that will not be coming until the middle of next year at the earliest! But hey, pace is picking up!

Good chart except it should flatline at around the 15% mark. Also you need a second chart to show "promised/shown content" which needs to be a limit that immediately approaches infinity.

Raskolnikov posted:More importantly: Why are they motion capturing this poo poo?! An animator can do your door peak in a day or two! Pretend for a moment you are Chris Roberts. You are out of your depth with everything you tell the programmers. The only area you can contribute to your 133 million dollar project is the art department, and even then only by telling people what you think looks good. Your only "real contribution" is animation, not knowing that just because you video it doesn't mean it's immediately usable in the game because you're also crippled by ignorance. Of course you will motion capture literally everything because you think you're helping to complete the game by getting all this hard stuff out of the way! And also because you're soooo good you also do all the little details and tedious stuff because you are totally doing hard grunt labor next to all your fellow employees.

Enchanted Hat posted:This is amazing. They completely changed EVERYTHING. Like, not a single thing is marked as "yeah, we completed that on schedule, and we're moving on to the next things". EVERYTHING is delayed or being refactored or improved. Yes, that's because it was only shown to the backers in order to placate them. It has not rhyme, reason, or factual basis for its existence. None.

If your schedule bars keep growing, you don't know how to schedule, or there is big problems. I think they will be happy if they just pull an ostentatious thread that has a bar that constantly advances a day, every day. It's always almost done!

I don't know why you would say such things I just bought Star Citizen on steam for 80 and it's great.

After the release of Star Citizen every game will take 200 million and 8 years to develop because this is clearly best practices.
