Frontier is like Anti-Star Citizen in that regard, instead of endless spewing out promises, they never tell you anything until release is almost there.

And the reason I am just fine with that is because Frontier does not beg for donations through public funding or kickstarter or concept jpeg sales. They released a solid game and have paid for its development under their own steam. To me that shows they have earned their place in the market and do not have to tell us anything other than "here is a new update to keep the game growing." I may not be a hotshot egghead game dev, but to me, that is what I would call the right way of doing it.

They also release their finical information like public companies do (on time even).

This means that they have to be extra smart in the way they con people out of money - like how they conned me by me giving them money (lest than what a new release AAA game cost) for a product (Planet Coaster) that I then played for weeks and really enjoyed. They have how released some patches which will see me return to make yet another park and enjoy my time, all with out me realizing that their 14 shell companies and the boss wife are taking all my money.

Smart conmen they are. (they may get away with it for ever!)

Almost as funny as when someone actually hired U.S.A.F. to play for an audience of the San Francisco political establishment at political consultant Jack Davis’ fiftieth birthday party. Hilarity ensued.









United Satanic Apache Front showed up and infamously performed their... version of the 'Apache Whisky Rite'

quote:

" ... A striking, bare-assed girl in thigh-high leather boots joins Leyba in the center of a large pentagram painted on the floor. The safety-conscious vixen carefully removes all lit candles from the floor -- being sure to lift her gauzy shirt just out of flame's reach -- and helps Leyba into a 4-foot-high hood that is an adaptation of the traditional Mescalero devil dancer headdress. Blind and bound, Leyba stands at the girl's mercy as she deftly inserts two needles beneath his pectorals. She smiles and dips her finger in the blood, bringing it to Leyba's mouth for a taste. His tongue flickers and the girl saunters away, leaving Leyba to careen about as he oh-so poignantly tries to escape from the headdress. The crowd applauds politely. A clean-faced couple in matching disco costumes pulls out a flier to consult the program.
'All right,' heaves Leyba as he stumbles back into the center of the pentagram, blood caking his chest. 'Let's cut the crap.' Two women with long, dark pigtails and 6-inch heels stroll onstage as they don rubber gloves. Leyba turns his back to the crowd and the ladies instantly set to work carving a 'sacred and profane' design in his flesh with a pair of scalpels. In the audience, a woman dressed as a Victorian courtesan yawns and pulls a stack of vacation photos from her handbag. Blood streams down Leyba's spine. The crowd applauds politely. One of the women in charge of the scalpels leads Leyba to a table in the back of the room that serves as an altar. She rips off her underwear and rubs Leyba's head in her crotch. He kneels subserviently, waiting as the woman urinates into his fresh wounds. Women in the audience let out little whoops of glee. The crowd applauds. The piss goddess finds a shallow bowl on the altar and collects the blood and urine streaming off Leyba's back. Kneeling at her feet, he drinks it. A young dreadlocked man sitting in the front row lights a cigarette and caresses his girlfriend's cheek. He looks around the room with studied ironic detachment.
Leyba stumbles to his feet. His eyes are feverish. Sweat clings to his face. 'The white man brought whiskey. The whiskey rite goes back seven generations. An Apache friend of mine always used to warn me about old rule Number 7.'
The piss goddess strides into the ring with a large bottle of Jack Daniel's strapped to her groin. She uncaps the bottle, spilling whiskey on the floor. The sharp scent of alcohol mingles with the organic smell of blood and sweat. She bends Leyba over and wipes the blood off of his back with a cloth before grabbing him by his hair. She sodomizes him without restraint, a fiendish smile playing across her face. The dreadlocked man takes a drag off of his cigarette. The piss goddess spins Leyba around, forcing the bottle into his mouth. He drinks. She sodomizes him again and offers the bottle to the crowd. David Aaron Clark, one of the night's earlier readers, takes a large swig. Danielle Willis finds her way to the bottle as well. Murmurs of 'Hail Satan' fill the air. A young goth leaning against the back wall squares his shoulders and proves his worth in shots. Other audience members follow. Finally, a smattering of applause allows the female performers to take awkward bows. The blase crowd sets to discussing what fabulous party they will or will not be attending later that night. With an anticlimactic spurt of energy, Willis takes the center of the ring and begins reading from her latest novel. 'This is about a very bored vampire who doesn't like to think about anything except getting high,' she mewls..."

Just as I said in 2 blogs, VR is never - ever - coming to Star Citizen. Now confirmed by Ben Parry.

Hi @SaturnSquared. Sorry to say, do not hold your breath for this. Ignoring the render tech for VR itself (which given the work we've done, would definitely be a read-and-rewrite job, not a merge-this-file job), making a game properly VR compliant takes a lot of work at the design and testing level regardless of the engine used. We'd probably need to get the framerate up a bit higher too, come to think of it.

quote:

Sorry for any misunderstanding, my point was that some of the key obstacles to VR support aren't about whether the engine has the technical capability for it. That kind of thinking leads to, well, this guy explains it better than I do. I'd prefer we don't accidentally and permanently ruin anyone's ability to enjoy VR.

There is no way it pans out any other way, both from the perspective that SC nerds are sex mad loons who crave seeing titties everywhere, and CIG are idiots who can't design something that looks real world applicable.

(A sternum cracker is a rigid breastplate with a "cleavage". This essentially turns the breastplate into an axe strapped to your body.)
