I hope there is a coordinated group of cultists all with tens of thousands in jpeg purchases who keep the tracker stable.

It wouldn't be as funny if Chris is mostly burning bumbling venture capitalist money with endless shoots at the most expensive performance capture studio with nothing to show for it.

Hahah, funny joke. They had that horse prop for other projects and they just pulled it out for a silly photo. Star Citizen is a space game about space. Think how out of scope things would be if it were real. Hahah.

Star Citizen Regional Servers Coming Sooner

quote:

Star Citizen developer Cloud Imperium Games announced today that the game's regional servers feature is coming out sooner than anticipated. Creator Chris Roberts said in a note today that the release of regional servers is being moved up to Alpha 2.6.1.
...
Star Citizen has brought in more than $142 million from its massively successful crowdfunding effort. Parts of the game have been made available but the full title is without a release date.

Star Citizen regional servers coming early in 2.6.1 update

quote:

During the last Star Citizen development timeline update, CIG had stated that regional servers are coming. Today they announced the early arrival of the feature.
...
Patch 2.6.1 is scheduled to hit around 16 February based on the development schedule timeline and they are still ironing out stability and UI issues.

The wait for Star Citizen, and the wait for Star Citizen to implode, are both great examples of delayed gratification.

Nah, 123RF has a rotating selection of images that they offer as completely free (you're limited to one low-ish resolution but you don't have to pay) and those rules are for those images.

For example, I saved this from the page of free images on offer last night:



Then I logged into my 123RF account and clicked two buttons and got a non-watermarked version for free:



The only defense the shillizens have on this one is "Well maybe it was for a mockup, and they were 'comping' the content until it got approved but then forgot to change it" which is hilarious because "CIG is incompetent" is what we've been saying all along.

No, one of the guys screencapped above actually said that "comping" rules still applied to SC since the game is just in alpha and thus not a commercial product :psyduck:

From old thread.

Was intrigued by the Emeco Navy Chair and knockoffs, so i was browsing around a bit and found this:

https://www.lawyersandsettlements.com/blog/tag/navy-chair

Turns out Restoration Hardware is known for making knockoffs of the real article and, i assume, selling them for the same or higher amount of dolares. What are the odds of Sandi buying the knockoffs for absurd amount of backer money just because Restoration Hardware?
...
Also, the chairs, if they are RH, are not originals, as RH appears to have been making knockoffs and got into a legal spat with Emeco. So all the chairs are likely to be expensive ($1k?) knockoffs. Kinda like Star Citizen.

Derek can I hang out in your game room for like a week and relive my teenage years, man those games are bringing back a nostalgia binge, awesome collection.

Sadly, since we went digital, I stopped buying boxed games. So everything is currently in storage :(

Sillybones posted:

Did you have any properties you own that you had tenants or what ever foreclosed on?

I have several investment properties rented out or bought through a trust. None have been foreclosed on, let alone in or going through foreclosure.

As it's in the public record, what they're harping on, is the one I bought back in 2005 and which I rented out on a lease-to-purchase to a foreigner who stopped paying; even after he took out a loan against it. He's since left, and now there's legal proceedings over that. And since I still own it (since he hadn't finished paying for it), I'm part of the lawsuit.

After they moved out, we fixed it up, and recently put it back on the market as a standard sale (not short sale, foreclosure, or any of that) because the price (after the real estate market collapse from few years back) has gone back up again, especially in that high priced area. Even so, with the agent fees, I will barely make my money back. Just four years ago, the value had gone down to around $750K after the market collapsed.

We haven't even lived in that house since 2009 after we moved due to my daughter's school and my wife's practice. It's been rented out several times since. When we later put it up for sale, the lease-to-purchase by an existing renter, was one of the offers we accepted because it paid top dollar at the time, and was convenient. Very few people can qualify for, let alone buy a million dollar house with $2,500 a year in HOA fees, and $15K per year property taxes. Not to mention the upkeep etc.

Those rear end-clowns are basically doing what MoMa did. Take a square peg and try to fit it into a round hole - as some sort of attack. MoMa did the same thing back when he posted that I had a traffic infraction, regardless of the fact that I wasn't even driving, nor the fact that it was tossed out in court as it was one of those bullshit Red light camera tickets which get routinely tossed.

So how long will the player count justify AUS servers? It's gonna be ghost town after a couple weeks

It won't matter. They're now on AWS (via LumberYard) which doesn't cost anything unless someone is actually using it. Only the server (whether clients are connected or not) instances are going to cost them very little dollars depending on how often they are updated/patched, regardless of client connections.
