hopefully CIG has plans in place to institute driver's license and then you'll have to do things like space hill parking and space parallel parking

And you know, part of it is that none of these models have any weight to them, they kind of just float around.

DogonCrook posted:Imagine how much work has to be done to get it to the point Chris says "gently caress it we are going to version 2 this later". That $100,000 industry average isn't something they could possibly keep to. I think you could safely double that cost estimate. Bolded for emphasis - whether or not the project falls under the technical definition of a "scam", what you said about misrepresentation hits the nail directly on the head. This project was, first and foremost, about what Chris Roberts wanted - and he wanted to make a movie/game in the vein of the very worst of what the CD-ROM 90's first generation had to offer. poo poo-tastic games that were littered with FMV cutscenes because the industry had no idea where it was going, and figured they're try to emulate movies. The industry matured and found a way for games to separate themselves from film, so both storytelling mediums have their own approach and their own art. Chris does not give one flying gently caress. In his mind, one last FMV cutscene hellscape is his manifest destiny, and all that money he's taking is owed to him. That's why, despite taking money for a space game, one of the very first things he did, before even getting a functional engine, was blow it on big-name actors (and his participation-tropy-wife), enless motion-capture sessions, and one of the worst "scripts" ever to come to print. If the tree that became the paper that Chris printed his script on lived its earlier times crushing the chest of a hundred dying orphans alone in the forest, it was still doing less harm then than it is now as the carrier of his mental flotsam. Chris pulled nothing more than a simple bait-and-switch: promise Second Life in space, deliver complete poo poo - poo poo he gets to define top to bottom based on what he wants - an ever-shifting mind-dump from a narcissistic manchild who feels 100% entitled to this cash, and feels no obligation whatsoever to deliver anything other than what he himself wants to deliver. So assuming anything at all is released by this sham of a company, you can rest assured it will be only the pieces Chris himself wants released. Once he has his backers' cash, as far as he's concerned, they can go gently caress themselves.

Jason Sextro posted:CR will probably have SQ42 engineered so that trying to avoid his cutscenes will brick your computer I remember when the citizens were calling for StarCitizen.exe to monitor all other processes running on the same computer and block any alternate VoIP capability to ensure only in game communications were used to preserve the immersion (can't have players talking from different star systems via teamspeak). Looks like they'll get their wish!

Personally if I was going to hate something online for 8 years it would be something like the technology industry's reliance on child slave labour for coltan farming in the DRC or the many and storied transgressions of any one of countless Jewish political and financial institutions instead of a computer game. Anyway, I'd like to use this post to remind everyone to call or visit their parents where possible. maintaining strong family bonds is something that we can use to reaffirm our perspectives regarding what's really important to us all in our short lives

A Neurotic Corncob posted:more sick as hell SQ42 footage https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8wTqdDXplc&t=942s For some reason I fast-forward watched this. I'm glad motion capture animation is still the most important component. Because climbing into your ship at different speeds is far more immersive. And sitting on a seat 9 ways is critical. I don't think I saw any of that silly gameplay stuff though. That's always the last thing a really awesome and well thought out game figures out.

TheAgent posted:yeah I'd figure the whole computer systems of the year 3,000 could prob handle a simple checklist of "start your poo poo up to fly" I love to speculate on this stuff because I'm a huge science fiction nerd who will never live to see any of it... but I think ship "wars" will be fought by missiles that might just create a debris field in front of another ship's flight trajectory. At the speeds they would need to go, they wouldn't be able to turn enough to avoid the debris, and just get shredded to bits. Unfortunately though that doesn't make space combat very fun. But I don't think it really will be. It'll be tons of math by a computer and probably months/weeks/longer before you know if you "hit/killed" your target.
