"Last night’s Star Citizen holiday stream was a disaster but the main sections have been released separately.

CIG removed the holiday stream from the Youtube channel today, they were probably too embarrassed to leave it up. As that has now gone, the main segments have been released separately.

These videos include the underwhelming 2.6 trailer which attempts to entice players with 10 ways to play when in fact there’s not much new or exciting, a video showing scale which is concept stuff, the emergent gameplay from 2.6 which looks a bit rubbish, and the Vanduul ships which were nice to look at."

It's so damn...literal.
Three days ago, the guy who makes Stardew Valley promised a patch "within weeks" addressing the issues in the console launches.

Last night the PS4 patch went live.

It made me think of SC. If one guy can pull that off in two days, imagine what CIG must be accomplishing behind the scenes.

Stardew Valley is also a *great* game. Very fun and creative re-imagining of an old IP, if that sounds familiar. Only problem is you can not pay $1,500 for the big farm and chicken coop, or a 10$/Month subscription to get extra mayonnaise machines. The creator's attention to detail about character interactions, and desire not to alienate LGBTQ audiences without being hamfisted is really admirable as well. For the price of one month in the 'Verse you can actually get more play hours worth of entertainment than you would ever throw at Star Citizen.

2 In your death camera look at your body
ACTUAL RESULT
Your weapon starts to levitate up and the animation shows that it is still firing

1. In Private Match entering the text dont work. Only the small arrow on the right side allows for text input.

3. While in Multiplayer Lobby you cant even enter text at all since there is no arrow on the right side of the chat box nor you can enter it regulary.

EXPECTED RESULT
Entering text should work like usual with the ENTER key and the small arrow-icon.

To be honest, that set up scene looked promising and maybe a good way to do that. I mean, if the game worked and was fun, that seems like a good way to set up for it. But, uh, that is the least important part of the *game*, so uh...

Meanwhile CCP make some good changes, and some baffling ones, which then sees them hold the largest MMO fight beating out the one from a few years ago just the other week. Meanwhile CIG have dudes sitting on a couch talking about abstract concepts for the game for the 5th year in a row.

poo poo man, I don't even like big ol' space MMO's and I especially don't like what I have heard about eve. But, uh, somehow I have purchased EVE and a 6 month subscription in my life to test it out and fiddled around with it. It had a bunch of cool stuff. I suck at sticking with *any* MMO, so don't blame EVE for my impatience/boredom/leaving..... but, I sometimes wonder, who are these magical focused gamers who can give a poo poo about a game for more than 4 months? The only game I can do that with is EU4, which is a loving masterpiece. "Wiz", a SA poster now works for the publishing company, Paradox Interactive, and that game is straight loving good. I have 800 hours on that, more than any other game (excluding WoW) and worth *every* loving penny.

The only mentions of doxing in this entire thread are by you. A bad thing happened, but everyone, especially the victim, would like everyone to forget about it and move on. Your concern trolling is way more weird than using a video games forum to talk about video games.

Everyone who's thinking about doxing in this thread should stop. And you're the only one who's doing it. So please stop.

Also if your avatar isn't some dumb thing you did for attention and really is a dox, the admins will remove for free so stop being such a martyr and get it fixed.

I honestly don't know how some of the people who organize the higher end stuff do things for so long. I helped run a new player alliance (guild) for like a year and got burnt out because it just stopped being fun. Same with the videos I used to do showing the map changes in the player controlled areas. EVE is certainly a game/hobby that takes a fair amount of dedication, and the people who love playing it genuinely do enjoy it and have fun despite some of the shittiness due to game code or mechanics you have to work around. It was best described to me as "the most complicated strategy game because its always against other humans and not the AI." Thankfully you can also play super casual if you want, which is what I do now for the most part, especially with the shift to making all trial accounts Free To Play accounts with slight restrictions on what they can fly and can do mechanically.

Its also no coincidence that a lot of people who play EVE also play CK, EU, & HOI. Strategy game rule, and the dudes who do the higher group level management are pretty solid at strategy games. Just depends on the rules and mechanics is all.

I was ultra-deep into a KMMO waaaaaay back in the day (Ragnarok online) and only shitcanned it when they added a cash shop that started to gently caress up the balance of the game via blatant P2W. Things get compelling if you have that sort of mindset. Friendships get formed and broken, long term plans get made, communities are formed... Nothing's ever really done it the same way for me, so who knows what the reason for me sticking to it for several years was. It wasn't even a good game when compared to it's contemporaries.

I played Eve for a while, and Eve is definitely compelling due to it's sandbox and chaotic nature. The only problem I found with Eve was there was too much waiting involved, and logging in to do something, and just sitting around with nothing to do until you had to log out was a bit bleh. When you got involved in something big and epic though, that always felt amazing.
