Ol Cactus Dick posted:So the valentines thing was that the ships are a couple, not the people buying them  How do we know if CIG just didn't royally gently caress up? It's so hard to tell if the idea is half baked or just a colossal fuckup. Poor CS dept. Poor people waiting for refunds.

That's a bit like asking whether something is yellow or has the colour rgb(255,255,0) — their loving up royally is indistinguishable from their doing a well-planned marketing move. Trying to differentiate the two is pointless.

TrustmeImLegit posted:Personally I heard Blizzard didn't even start working on the mmo netcode until 6 months before release. Just had to layer it in. Really they just had really great ideas. Some random interns pretty much overlayed the code on top over the weekend. These ideas man. You can't just have ideas unless you've been in the biz for so long and are seasoned.

It's funny how their fuckups never seem to go in the backers' favor though, you'd figure that that would happen by chance at least once. At least the two-packs not being separately giftable is still better than selling a ship without an engine (or power plant, whatever).

Anyone can work hard to turn the ephemeral concepts written on the back of a donut box into something concrete, tactile and real. That's loving easy. It takes a real genius to say "hey what if we..." over and over like a hyperactive five year old though.

And its cash only too for the deals. And while the sale is going on you can't buy the non sale version of the ships for store credit. This is a strong build on to last years BDSM marketing.

I like this idea more, and chances are its likely the case. I'd say they meant it as a giftable ship, but there are so many commandos that have like 5 of the same ship for their "fleet," so it wouldn't surprise me if CIG sold them 2 per, thinking how much of a valued commodity they'd be for one person.

Can you even get both ships to the landing pad? This is just... I dunno. It's no surprise this sale doesn't y'know, sell, but that they even try... wow. They really, really hate their backers.

MilesK posted:They've fixed the dull grey colors. Years ago when I actually thought Star Citizen had a chance, I was playing a round of Vanduul Swarm in a Hornet. All of sudden the cockpit glitched and the entire ship disappeared. I was still flying, but the FOV was completely open and exposed. It was incredible. The vista was really awesome, the visibility made combat really enjoyable and engaging, and none of the glares or other "features" that I had to deal with before existed. Unfortunately it was all a glitch and when I died the dull ship returned to take up space. I feel like the same thing is happening here. It's a glitch, but it makes things look far more vibrant and dynamic than anything CR would ever think of.

That could give some 3rd world kids ~400,000 years worth of medicine/education etc. If said kids were supported for 20 years of their lifetimes then SC could have helped ~20,000 kids avoid abject poverty. But spaceship JPEGs are pretty cool too, sorry 3rd world kids!
