Everyone should read the entirety of the Chit thread because it's the posting equivalent of pre-tremours for the ELE. It's seriously 95% people saying that they're done with funding and that CIG's performance is poo poo. There's even open admissions that the project is likely to fail.

Most of the current forum is behind a paywall already, just General Chat that you can publicly view iirc, but it appears they are really bolting the exits with Spectrum, nuking years of their promises and back-forth exchanges with people they claim they will treat with the 'same level of respect as they would investors' (The Pledge) or at best severely restricting your ability to view and access the information. I'm sure there's more and I'm sure it's worse.

peter gabriel posted:Good, let it burn I guess it's because I've seen projects like this so many times, headed by people making outrageous sums of money, producing nothing, forcing misery and terror on their employees, making people miss holidays and vacations and family time and lives, the actual lives they should be living all in pursuit of some unobtainable goal that they think possible only if people believed more, gave more and worked harder, while the top levels take holidays and smirk at how much they have accomplished star citizen, for me, isn't about some dumb space game taking money from people. it's about companies and businesses who do this poo poo all the time, who actively make employees suffer to squeak out mediocrity at a faster rate, take all the profits from the word go and leave a wasteland of failure and suffering behind it still happens. this isn't unique to the 90s corporate culture. I work for people who absolutely do not give a poo poo about anything except the dollar on some spreadsheet. these are organizations that should be helping people, that have vast, immeasurable resources that could save hundreds of thousands of lives or improve countless others. instead they gently caress over whoever they can, sometimes for little or no gain whatsoever, just because they can. because they are that powerful, that immense, that nothing can touch them its all very liberal-bleeding-heart-tree-hugging-faggotry, because somehow caring about people makes you weak for some reason and sure I get plenty of laughs here but I've been through crunches where I didn't leave the office for 50+ hours. where I had to take cabs home because the lack of sleep made me hallucinate people were walking in front of the road. where when you finally came back, the guy up top who had been on vacation for 3 weeks in fiji asked why you weren't at your desk working. where the people making the biggest amount of money did absolutely nothing but come up with ideas for other people to implement in a sane and working fashion to sum up, gently caress chris roberts and those at the top making millions while death marching everyone into the deepest pit of despair imaginable gently caress you, Chris. gently caress you.

I think a day or two ago on Specturm, someone asked Lando for the price and he said it was in the "design department" to determine the price. loving comedy thinking they are doing deep calculations to determine BOM and gross profit margins for a jpeg instead of just placing Stevie Wonder in front of a dartboard.

A little under two years of real development.quote:Well '12 and '13 were start up years, June '14 AC went live, and there the game first truly became playable, so a little under two years of real development, i think they are making fair progress for the time being. Im ready to wait another 5 years, then we have reached the Fallout 4 development time, and that was with a studio and a publisher already set up.

https://forums.robertsspaceindustries.com/discussion/372558/feeling-angry-and-annoyed-everytime-i-play-sc Feeling angry and annoyed everytime i play SC Its maybe the only one with that feeling. I can take that. But im been honest, everytime i play SC since 1.6 (when they started to migrate to google servers) my levels of angry and annoyance hit records. I'm not pretending they to release 3.0, SQ42 or anything, but look at what we have now...lots of ships, thats true. But gamepaly wise, content wise, technically...ive never played an early access for that long been so messy. I understand the scope, theyre pretending to make the biggest most ambitious project ever done in the videogame industry, ok im not arguing with that. But what we have now? what are the foundations? are we really demanding the BDSSE with these foundations? When you release an FPS shooter 2 years delayed, and its the most mediocre, not fun, buggy, laggy mess ever a big budget company has produced, you don't really have good foundations. When youre changing the flight model since the very first day because you don't know yet what you want to be, you don't have good foundations, when youre balancing one time and another, patch after patch, getting more and more far from been balanced after 2 years you don't have a good foundation, all that with an exponentially more complex and messy code that multiplies bugs and techincal troubles. Can we expect a BDSSE wiht those dirty foundations? Forget about 3.0, planetary stuff, SQ42 and everything its not playable now, im not going there, i don't even want that till they are 100% sure its fun, playable, enjoyable, and techincally acceptable. I don't want it. Think about what we have now, and think about that been in development for about 4 years, with 2 years actively played by the comunity with lots of feedback. And now ask to yourself, is this acceptable? Don't take me wrong, i want the project to be released as soon as posible and i want it to be a drat good game, and thats why im not asking for 3.0, SQ42 release date or more ships, ive learned to not expect new things from CIG the ahrd way, and im fine with that, lets focus on the game we play every day. I just want an acceptable game with the poor content we have now, im not asking for the moon, given that theyve been developing this part of the game 4 years and 2 been public alpha... You can't make the most ambitious project ever, with a softy, tender community, been always gratefull, and patient. The foundations are a mess, and they are still changing pretty basic ground things as it was they first year of development. Why they keep selling and making new ships? Do we really need more ships? at this rate they will ahve to remodel 20 ships per year to keep up with everything else, more work, more money wasted, and more poo poo to sell. And whats wrong with the servers? why theyre always under stress? are they investing in server side? can't we expect a good server support from a hundred million dollar game funded by the backers???? is that begging for too much???
