Beet Wagon posted:What blows my mind about this is that Titanfall 2 for example seems to have significantly more lag when it comes to gunfire and seems totally fine, and yet Star Marine's gunfire seems utterly disconnected to the actions of the player. Maybe it's just that Titanfall is a sharper experience overall so you don't notice it, whereas Star Marine is so loving janky that it all piles up and the game crashes whenever you try and shoot the Bad Commando(TM)? Whats funny is that the network culling just dissapeared from the roadmap. The way the game deals with character locations is probably such a loving huge mess that they cant divorce it from the rest.

No goodbye, no see you later, no nothin'. Just left. I don't know much, but I know that.

Spatial posted:It's not the thread quality but what was being discussed. Namely that the game seems to be a huge grind fest, and is ultimately shallow despite its size. That there are hundreds of 300+ hour negative reviews on Steam only seems to confirm that view. Fair enough, some people like it, some don't. I have about 500 hours in it and it's not a game I can play every day but I do really enjoy it when I do play.

The game thread is full of bitter vets that would rather the game take a completely different direction of what it really is. You can get a lot of fun out of it so long as you take things slowly and dont gun for the biggest ships/largest grind in one sitting or something. Elite is still the best game in the genre because it exists and despite a lot of the gameplay design issues its actually functional and gets regular content updates that actually feel like they are building a foundation for a game rather than throwing a bunch of poo poo at the wall and hope for the best. Get it on sale.

ManofManyAliases posted:Next purchase is a racing drone. It's so cool and I want to get into it. This is awesome!!!! Heck, I remember waiting to learn when we would be able to download Squadron 42 back in October 2014. Instead of Sq42--CIG gave us Space Racing!! Woot--so great. Who knew that instead of getting the spiritual successor to Wing Commander we instead got the crappiest reboot of WipeOut ever conceptualized. What great news to hear CIG is doubling down on Space Racing. Hey, maybe, refresh my memory. When did backers ask for space racing? But I get the excitement--no 3.0 or SQ42 this year and CIG needs to deliver something. A $75 dollar drone to race around a small map seems like something the community college developers at CIG might be able to deliver.

I get that a lot of crazy and obsessive people exist out there. But so many wealthy crazy and obsessive people?? Something just feels wrong with the reported amount of daily/weekly/monthly funding. How many untapped whales can be left at this time? Definitely money laundering. Or CIG stuffing the charts. There is simply NO other explanation. Like at all.

...and we have the second confirmation of the existence of a 2.7 patch; even as CIG continues to dangle 3.0 in front of backers like a carrot stick. Of course none of this means anything seeing as they can brand any build to be 3.0 and call it a day. They did the same thing with the 2.5.x path in Dec, which miraculously became 2.6.0 though, aside from Star Marine, didn't contain most of what was previously promised, and which are now playing out in 2.6.1 (current) and upcoming 2.6.2 builds. The first confirmation was by Todd Pappy and I covered that in this post back on Feb 14. As I wrote back then, at the end of the day, they can brand any build as 3.0, and call it a day. All with complete disregard for promises made. And they can do this with impunity because even as they continue to do so, and whales, in Sunk Cost Fallacy, keep propping it up, they get the impression that they have a blank check. And with that, they have zero incentive to finish the games as promised, let alone deliver on any promises made. Cue the mental gymnastics... https://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizen/comments/5wp35m/27_patch_mentioned_again_in_todays_livestream/ quote:Honestly wouldn't be surprised if some devs are working on the original 2.7 build, and just didn't care enough to change the build number. Words. Fail. Me https://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizen/comments/5wpa93/got_a_full_refund_ill_see_you_all_in_a_few_years/debtsto/ quote:Too bad you asked for a refund and no longer have faith in the project. They are holding a large majority of the content back due to people like you complaining about unfinished mechanics, content, etc. People touring CIG have seen stuff that would your pants and make you take down this post. But I can't tell you cause NDA. Also, they're either backlogged or they're still employing delay tactics. TWO WEEKS to get a refund?!? https://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizen_refunds/comments/5wq62q/redpandarawr_gets_a_refund_516/ ps: TheAgent had a leak some weeks back where he had said that refunds were going to slow down based on sales/funding. Which explains the recent flurry of refunds after recent sales. Here's another one https://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizen_refunds/comments/5wrhki/just_received_my_1200_refund/ Ah yeah, remember back when we said that the Star Citizen networking kernel was getting worse? Right, you did. So go see just how bad it really is now in 2.6.1

Maybe it's just that Titanfall is a sharper experience overall so you don't notice it, whereas Star Marine is so loving janky that it all piles up and the game crashes whenever you try and shoot the Bad Commando(TM)? Titanfall prob uses some good client prediction code to fake whats coming next. Like if you are opponent is moving left it can assume you are moving left for the next few milliseconds and so tell your graphics to make him appear doing this even though you have no network contact that has his current exact position or actions. It corrects itself when it gets the exact data. In SC they are just happy it compiles and hope Chris doesn't notice the ignored compiler warnings.

yeah obviously there's not going to be sq42 or a real 3.0 this year if they are still designing basics like I guess faith will carry you through these hard times or whatever, but objectively looking at things the pair of games won't hit actual release until 2020 at the minimum at that point they'll have hundreds of ships left to put in and many mechanics left to sort out hope you enjoy your decade old space arcade shooter

How many untapped whales can be left at this time? The whales are extinct. The only ones that exist are the ones trapped in tiny pools owned by Croberts and co so that they can be milked for every last dime they have. You're not going to find fresh whales that are just now hearing about Star Citizen and manage to push past the missed dates and lack of progress to spend 15k. Everybody that will ever buy star citizen has already heard of it. It has been years and everyone that has been paying attention has already formed an opinion. Buy now or wait and see.
