A couple of places by us do pizza with meatballs. It's :mwah: Unrelated but you should give Alpha Protocol another try. Dump everything into pistols and sneaking, and you'll eventually be able to stroll around casually snapping people's necks while they all cry about not being able to see you.

I don't think I have it anymore, but I'll see if I can pick it up for cheap somewhere and maybe give it another shot. The mini games were not very conducive for me, I felt like a seizure was coming on during some of them. Meatball pizza is pretty good! I've had it before. Place here still does it too so it's all good. Though like pepperoni it can be a bit greasy. I prefer non greasy pizzas mostly but it's all up in the air. I don't think pizza has health value in any form.

He keeps putting me on his ignore list but somehow keeps responding when I poke him with my goonstick. I never get tired of watching him lose his poo poo at the slightest provocation. He does need to come up with a new gimmick though, he keeps recycling his responses and insults. I think we should help him with some new ones.

Is Forrest the guy mentioned in that one letter by a leaver as the guy 'stomping around in his dad's boots'? Yeah in his initial appearance he was a chubby geeky looking feller who looked like someone not invited to parties. Rumor is he's been servicing Sandi and has transformed himself with losing weight, getting a modern haircut and two sleeve tattoos. The other guy just has issues. The hair plugs and his sketchy mustache makes him look worse than he would otherwise. As in otherwise look normal.

no_recall posted:I'm just going to leave this here. I don't think "Star Citizen" is impossible to make. Any person that has served as a bridge between costumers and programmers or done both sides of the work can tell you that you can't just take what the customer asks for at face value and do it literally because the costumer doesn't know what he wants. The costumer doesn't know the full range of options at your disposal, or the different ways to tackle a problem. A lot of the times he can't even express what the purpose of what he is asking for is because he didn't think it all the way through. You have to know how things are coded and your limits and you have to know how his business works and what are his needs so that you can interpret what he's saying to you into things that will actually be useful to him otherwise you end up with a bloated feature creeped mess that is a nightmare to maintain and that he never uses. What the whales really want could be done, gradually. Frontier is not that far from achieving it if they started focusing on adding an FPS component to their game and could even improve it with player faction controlled regions of space one day. Gradually, as they have been doing, building up on a solid foundation. I have zero doubt Braben could do an extremely fun game along those lines if given the level of funding Chris got. The problem isn't that the interesting/sane parts of "Star Citizen" can't be made, it's that it can't be made by these people. They have gone about it the worst way possible since day one and failed at every single thing since they have attempted ever since, except unscrupulously fleecing sad nerds of their money. This song is the perfect summation of the entire Star Citizen project. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5e0z1_uwHY

It can be perfectly reasonable if you either split it between people or make a personal thing of say 4-6 oz of dough. What gets people in trouble quickly with pizza is how easy it is to overeat. You shouldn't eat 8+ oz of dough for one meal, just like you shouldn't eat half a loaf of bread for a sandwich.

After all this time they have nothing to build on, because Chris is a hack who made a ton of promises he has no idea how to go about fulfilling.

Thats because your corner store pizzeria selling two large pie for 10 bucks is using the worst quality of cheese with a horrible protein/fat ratio, meat with the lowest % of protein possible authorized by law while still being called ''meat'' and adding lots of sugar in the sauce as volume filler. A good pizza is no worse than a ham,tomato and cheese sandwich. Do it on anything other than white bread and dont go overboard with the mayo and its perfectly fine. Eldragon posted:I wish Elite was 10% as fun as that video makes the game look.

Because he doesn't have the hammer of needing to sell an actual stable working product to stay afloat hanging over his head. FD are motivated to do that because they'd be crucified if people paid for their product and found it to be bugged to poo poo. Braben got burned by that before (Frontier: First Encounters), which arguably lead to the death of Elite as a franchise for well over a decade. All the CRobbler needs to do is put out a series of bugged isolated modules and claim "progress" and the whales will throw cash at him. It doesn't matter if it suffers from horrible bugs and inept game design because ~~pre-pre-alpha~~. As a result, project tasks are never actually "completed" because the features never reach a state that could be considered to be "production ready". There's no urgency and the whole thing just drifts along aimlessly while CRobbler plays movie director in mocapland.

They have gone about it the worst way possible since day one and failed at every single thing since they have attempted ever since, except unscrupulously fleecing sad nerds of their money. There are a handful of early decisions that I think CIG did better than FDev, but over the last few years CIG consistently hosed up. Either through scope creep, overpromising, or lack of focus. The early promise of "We're going to do a combat arena, then turn that into a single system, then slowly start adding systems", Seemed like a good plan for making a focused space combat game. But now its 2016, CIG has not shown any SQ42 gameplay, nor shown any capital scale ships, and has not even managed to expand the game past dogfighting. Instead they talk about prodecural planets and an FPS game mode outside of the core universe. CIG totally fuckedup what was a reasonable goal and have lost all focus on actually making a space game. The rumor is that CIG is hiring rookies right out of college to get the game done. What he doesn't realize is that 5 rookies contributes less than 1 veteran programmer; and rookies generally cause more damage than solve problems.

People often call SC a 140M$ disaster while it is, in fact, only a 60-70m$ disaster, the Crobblers hollywood dreams having engulfed nearly half the budget for mocap with nothing to show for it after 4 years. Money is frungible and move around so it would be difficult to ascertain the real cost of SQ42lude when it release but from leaks and sources nearly half the budget was blown on mocap alone, something with very little use to SC.

This was the excuse of why it would take longer to release something, but that something would have way more in it. This adding systems and such come after it became clear CIG was not making progress and could only work on a single thing at a time.

Yea the "Star Citizen difference" was that they were gonna make the whole game then release while "Elite was only gonna be a quarter game expanded over time". Now SC is doing that and its now the "correct" way to do it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JyWqCew1g-A lovely crowdfunded closed development obvious hacks Warhorse Studios continue to show "progress" on their "game" that is currently in an "alpha state" where all of the intended games features are "implemented". Notable pieces of information include a dramatic three and a half hours of motion capture for a single player narrative game (it took them a whole month), numerous examples of where ambitious features had to be cut for the interest of gameplay, and artists being tasked with the alien concept of "optimization". Clearly a scam.
