Hey guys I just want to casually let you all know I OC'd my 220W Piledriver to 5GHz with a custom $200 cooler, now I can chill on the 'net and tell you all about how I don't really care about CPU performance and am satisfied with 30fps :smuggo:

With the billions of subsumption NPCs it wouldn't surprise me if such intricate plots arose spontaneously just by a combination of different NPC motivations. That's why I got the news reporting ship, I intent to be a sort of Nightcrawler, hanging around the worst parts of each planet and trying to find interesting stuff and make a living as a documentary director. Those should fetch a great price, luxury transports will want exclusive stuff to keep their passengers entertained.

Think about all the drama we will miss because only other NPC's were there to witness these events. CIG should record everything that happened and 90% of the news can be covered by other NPC's. I get my wallet out just thinking about it!

It's more than that even - Just in that first question, he veers all over the place, starting with "the jungle planet, the ice planet", then realizes that's a bit one dimensional and boring, so he says it will be more than that. They'll have magic zones! Where you need the right magic boots, or you can't go there. Yes. But wait! Hand-wavy junior here goes on about all the great tools they have to sculpt entire planets by hand, as if that were remotely plausible. Chris reminds us that planets are real big guys. Just think about how long it's taken us to explore earth, and we're going to have 100 systems!

Keep feeding those ~dreams~, Chris, they need more bullshit to thrive!

every single thing they do, it always like this.
I have never once hear them say " we've completed this " or this is done.
its always going to, planning to.

Interest in 2.6 is fading.

25 bug reports in last 24 hours.

From what I understand SQ42 doesn't work at all and work hasn't really started on 3.0.

Gamescom is in August, so given past history don't expect a major patch before then. I dunno if they'll make to August given the numbers of senior staff leaving and the start of the rumoured lay offs.

Please be nice to moma during this difficult time.

Their current plan should indeed be to have something significant ready by August. Typically this could be a fake demo/ doubtful gameplay like last year (which albeit fake, achieved its goal and got everyone and their dog excited). So they would just put in crunch time (like they seem to do) for an isolated demo.

However, fingers crossed, this scammy technique had its last good run last year and can no longer fly with most of the backers. In spite of the most stubborn shills efforts to spin this somehow. CIG probably has figured that out already or will be very soon.

So, bottom line, I expect more interesting ways for them to disappoint and fail this year.

I think it's a tough call since the price tag is rather high. Planetary landings are impressive as hell and it's fun to play though.

Basically, I bought it and I don't regret it because I'm happy to fund the further development of the game. If you're enjoying the game currently, it adds a bunch of extra interesting stuff.

Is multi-crew included in the horizons update? I forget, but if it is then perhaps the price is more reasonable because that stuff will really change how the game plays.

Finishing the game with everyone else's continues

Dolvak is utterly terrified of being branded a "traitor" the same way he used to chase Beer around as one, so that response is hardly a shock. I wonder if he can find some way to back down out of that, like he used to whenever he'd go for Beer and get asked to post proof.

Whenever I watch things withTony Z in it. It reassures me knowing someone who knows his craft is on board putting Chris's vision in place. I honestly don't know how anyone can watch that whole thing and not feel the project is in a good place. these are the high level guys.

It doesnt look like it is. Since I am just getting going I will hold off for a bit. Hopefully a sale will pop up in between if not if I am still enjoying it I will most likely get it.
