I see no reason to nitpick or disbelieve their claims that the integration of their stuff from Cryengine to Lumberyard went smoothly. By all accounts Lumberyard is just Cryengine + Amazon's networking stuff. If the majority of the stuff that Amazon added or changed was in the networking and the core & rendering stuff was left alone then yes, it should be easy for CIG to keep their changes and get it working while still using CIG's existing networking code & servers. If they said it didn't take a ton of time and it demonstrably happened then I think that we can take their word for it in this instance. I don't believe the "2 guys did it in 2 hours on their lunchbreak" part of their claim, 1-2 days is probably more reasonable. Also it is possible to twist and turn yourself in micro-gravity. You can't add any angular momentum but you can change your orientation. Chris Roberts was right in this instance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJcno_XL4RU&t=42s

I thought the other guy (Lord British?) was saying yeah you could twist and change orientation but not change your overall position; ie, if floating stationary in the middle of a big roomChris thought you could shift your weight in such a way as to go in a particular direction and reach a wall, the other guy was telling him in no uncertain terms he was wrong and you'd just spin on the spot someone link the vid? EDIT: here's the vid. I think they're sorta talking across purposes TBH, but Garriott seems to know what he's talking about and Chris is a lot more confused https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxxlrKlLO9g Fatkraken fucked around with this message at 22:37 on Dec 26, 2016 |

Amazon targeted Star Citizen as a flagship AAA game  Chris wasn't jumping ship at all, makes so much sense! Crytek figuratively smoldering days prior was just a coincidence!

I had forgotten what was actually said and was going by the repeated consensus of this thread. You are right, Garriott specifically mentions being able to turn around like a cat but not changing your overall spin which Roberts is contesting. My bad.

But X-Wing was more of a space sim than anything any of the Robertses and gang has ever produced.  Have these people played any games ever?! Sunswipe posted:Don't modern military aircraft have this feature? I thought as soon as a plane detected someone had missile lock on it, it started screaming and flashing lights at the pilot to let him know he's going to die in a few seconds if he doesn't do something. Screw “modern” — aircraft from the 1950s have this. Actual modern aircraft have integrated systems that take the very basic old RWR and juice it up with data from other sensors, external sources like AWACS and JSTARS and other aircraft in the flight package, to say nothing of the active measures available on the aircraft — all mashed into a complete battlefield picture and filtered and prioritised so you know at a glance what you need to worry about right this second. If the simplistic and imprecise warnings available in an arcade shooter made its way into a cockpit, even the weapons industry would be ashamed of it and offer a refund for being so utterly useless.

So in response to me asking if a guy in another forum really believes that the 2 engineers a couple of days statement was reasonablequote:Yes that's right. A couple of days sounds like they took their time and did it very carefully actually. Learn to use Git and you'll have an idea of why. They actually took their time and did it very carefully!

Q: Can I redistribute source code modifications to Lumberyard? Yes, you can redistribute up to 50 lines of source code, on forums (including the official Lumberyard contribution forum), or elsewhere. You may also share modifications with your contractors and publishers working on your game, as set out in the Service Terms. Otherwise, you may not release Lumberyard engine source code. Hopefully Roberts relays changes in the code to the official forums to get them accepted.

From a few pages back, I can't ever keep up with the thread, but can you recommend a good drafting compass? I have a semi decent bow style, but it just doesn't work out for my projects.

orcinus posted:This is getting ridiculous: It really -is- getting ridiculous. I've been playtesting this title on and off since August with the first roll-out and it is spectacular to watch things -actually- develop in a title. That they are not only eager but -capable- of layering so much detail into the title is a thrill in and of itself. These developers are making Unity their bitch and then some. My exposure to SC, thanks to a zealous (8K deep) coworker has always been one of a baffled disbelief - from the get go the project has always struck me as promising the world and having zero capability of delivery. But then what do I know, I just used to work in the industry  Tarkov on the other hand promises a lot, too: insanely complex, simulation-grade small arms combat. It doesn't sound like much at a glance but the level of detail and thought being poured into this game by the devs is something else. The crucial thing here is of course that they actually are delivering what is being promised. Yes it has had some clunky aspects. Yes it has had its share of bugs - what game does not? But bit by bit this is coming into its own and you need not blow 500 bucks to join in on it either. If any of you are on the fence and have ever had a liking or even an interest in more 'simulator' grade shooters? Did you like Arma or Stalker - this really is the love-child of the two. A title to keep eyes out for, at the very least. DarkDobe fucked around with this message at 23:47 on Dec 26, 2016 |

BitBasher posted:Yes, believe it or not players running their own moddable private servers were one of the front page promises for the kickstarter. FREE private servers were never mentioned. Just Private Servers. If private servers ever did become a thing, the first thing CIG would claim is the database and the like are too complicated/too proprietary to distribute so players will need to rent seats on a private server. i.e. it is your server, but you pay CIG a hosting fee. But like all things CIG and Star Citizen--dreams. There will never be private servers for a game that will never exist.

It seems many in the community have an extreme aversion to FDev making a space sim. Maybe it's just that they get defensive about SC? Or maybe they see ED forming into something great and they feel cheated about buying SC? Don't know.

Elite: Dangerous would be a very old game by the time SC would ever be able to actually release at the current rate of progress. It's delusional to feel that Frontier is afraid of Star Citizen.

(And yes, i loved both the STALKER series and Arma, although more STALKER than Arma. That's why EFT caught my eye in the first place.)

You shouldn't be able to turn around in a vacuum from a stationary position, and end up in the same posture, without pushing off something or throwing something out. Technically, pushing off or throwing off something twice. I can imagine scenarios where you have like a weighted hula hoop around you, and you rotate it one way while you turn the other, but it shouldn't be doable without movable counterweight objects like that. I'm not totally convinced I'm right, as I'm imagining a cat folding itself in a "U", then turning inside out, but that still has unbalanced inertia. Either way, afterwords he keeps spinning and has to steady himself. He picked up angular momentum from somewhere. Pushing against air.
