The anandtech thread could probably use a little because they had the dumb door defense over in that thread. The Derek conjuring semi-true myth was already cited over there. Someone could post "derek smart Derek Smart DEREK SMART" and have him jump in right after. lol

Crazy_BlackParrot posted:Shitizens want to believe. Yeah that's why I was posting about the whole "Missing the forest for the trees" mentality backers have. CIG has barely managed a prototype in an engine that is almost certainly a dead end. The guy making the decisions is obviously obsessed with his magnum opus cinematic experience. Years of his own words and complete bewilderment at the prototype prove that. He speaks in vague possibilities about the game people paid $140,000,000 for while having enthusiasm for Squadron 42 with years of time spent at the world's most expensive animation studio. None of the assets they are producing and none of the time they have spent has gone toward actually making anything other than a tech demo. Nope. All of that has been compartmentalized down into it's constituent molecules. 1,000,000 different petty arguments that can be argued for all eternity. The cult never has to be wrong because even if an asteroid hits the earth their survivors eating mold off the walls of a subway station can dream of the future day where they are all in the verse and just need to reinvent electricity to start working on 5.6.

So here is a little musing: Do you think the staggering incompetence displayed by CIG is intentional? A filtering process, like in those Nigerian scam emails, where it is suuuuuper obvious that it is a scam, and therefore anyone, even the dumbest, would immediately discard it. But the people that fall for it are so dumb, they're never going to catch on, and as such is a "safe bet" when it comes to giving money to shady people. With star citizen, the game is so badly made, and has been for so long, nobody in their right mind would look at it and say "yes, this looks good. This is up to 2016 standards" So is it a filtering process that attracts only the most broken stupid people, and then milks them for everything they have?

EXPECTED RESULT Mouse cursor should align with selectable UI elements Load game. Play Game without breaking computer. Ship to stay steady and still, or when in the andromeda for example, to keep its speed and go on when walking around the ship. Transport to Crusader Exit to desktop I should have been able to walk around after standing up UI exit Hud should stay at it's place on the screen Game should exit normally Should not clip out of map click on icon and get to logon screen and get in to the game Door should lower to the ground to allow access to the ship. The overlays of SM should change accordingly to the actual resulotion even if its widescreen. Loading of the Star Marine match traded original game package then went in game selected new hanger and been able to apply new ship to any part of the game......and PLAY Keep flying graphics tint should not change - obviously, tint may change on some assets depending on lighting, but this effect is on all assets in view, regardless of lighting. Launch in pink ship! After placing ballistic weapons into ship configuration, the ship should load ammunition in as well. i should have a body, ships and go to hanger with out crashing. Crash Go to desk Disconnected from the game Go back to Menu - no crash When you go near the ship terminal the "use" button to appear. PTU 2.6.0 STAR MARINE Start Multiplayer game Last Stand Find Match Crash to menu during the load The expected results, can normal to play games. pop up error message get stuck Automatic doors should open and the ship selection menu should appear. should not happened on this right place To fly towards the ship, slow down upon impact, and enter the left side door via ladder Game shouldn't get disconnected when connected to internet normal size HUD see the scoreboard bring up ship selection hud and choose ship to put in hanger The game open and at least be somewhat playable To see the cannon a little farther from the tip of the wing so the gap is right. ACTUAL RESULT Downloaded this game 3 times in a 24 hour period. I can not play it. I lost my Ship, Armor, UEE Credits. I,m Invivible can not go ouyt the airlock without a suit and can not call up my ship at the olisar console. Looks like you guys got me for $75.00 I even upgraded my ship twice to the Mustang Beta all gone ..Thanks a lot!!!!!!! EXPECTED RESULT I would like to be able to play this game

With 2.6 CIG has managed to gently caress the transition between different landing grids even more, and the "flight" "model" seems even worse than before. This was well worth the 6 month wait.

Things I've learned about Star Marine/2.6 so far. Grenades are instakills anywhere in their radius, with little to no indication that they're near you. The Radar/HUD bounces a full inch up and down with every step you take on screen. Very Fidelity. You have to close out the entire program and reboot if you want to play another match You have to log into your hanger and access star marine that way or it crashes most everytime. The crosshairs are bugged and shake around more Michael J. Fox trying to do a paint by numbers The recoil is ridiculously high and makes everything spray and pray by default. Battlefield guns are somehow more stable. The proximity sounds are messed up really bad. In the PU things Stimpire pretty much everytime you try to do anything. The new flight model has such high acceleration and low speeds that dogfighting is pretty much impossible. Its Asteroids in 3d. Crashes are ubiquitous. One streamer had to restart 4 times before he was able to play more than 30 seconds of match. He was happy with it because loading times are "fast" now. If you didn't subscribe to CIG you pretty much cannot play anything right now, let alone the new stuff. Citizens, theres nothing to test. Any dev can simply load into 2.6 and see most of these bugs first try. Playtesting is only done in a much more polished state because that wheedles out the low occurrence bugs that a dev wouldn't necessarily reliably come across. Doing it now is pretty pointless as the devs dont know whats low or high occurrence because theres so much broken poo poo its hard to nail down. You'd know this if you understood game development.

Kosumo posted:Why would you need a gun like that? Why would you spend that much money on such a thing? I don't want this to turn into a gun debate thread, so please understand that if this derail gets too large I'm going to request that folks take it off to PMs or something. That said you've asked a reasonable question, and we get a lot of interesting conversations like this due to how international our little thread community is, so let me answer it. I don't need this gun. I have absolutely no need, whatsoever, for a heavy barreled semi-automatic magazine fed scoped rifle. I also didn't need Star Citizen, didn't need the copy of Stellaris I've put over 100 hours into (thanks Wiz!), and don't need the vast majority of other things I spend money on. I did, however, want one because I enjoy shooting paper. I also wanted one because I'm an engineer and I appreciate how this particular rifle was designed. I like how modular it is, how I can exchange the various components into something that fits me very well, and I like how it looks. One of my hobbies is target shooting, and I spent as much as I did because that's what I needed to buy what I wanted. It's no more a "killing machine" than any other firearm.

AP posted:Some guy created loads of these. My original guess was that they had to slow the ships down to try and prevent glitching and jitters. They could have also tried to increase them in size to cut down on the same problems as well. There is no real way to verify the "13 sextillion cubic kilometers" claim or whatever, so they could have doubled everything in size to try and walk back their stupid scale decisions. The only way to know would be traveling slightly less time into empty space before hitting the border. Good thing we have zero way to even identify the problem, much less the contributing factors or what is being done or how the game is even made. The most open development ever since it was a little game.
