Looks like Bioware either took the fidelity mantra to heart with ME: Andromeda or it's very poorly optimized. A GTX 1060 will only hit 30fps at 1080p Ultra settings: http://www.tweaktown.com/news/56616/gtx-1060-plays-mass-effect-andromeda-1080p-30fps/index.html

They need to implement the "game exists" slider, and slide it from "No" to "Yes" first. It is a major blocker.

Just remember, if you see him go to the toilets, follow him in and check his cubicle for pubes after he leaves. We need confirmation on his deep cover status.

I'm hungry. Feed me.
Funniest thing for me about the serialised variable bollocks is that it was a loving stretch goal.

Any competent devs would know that they would basically need to implement some sort of serialisation in an online game, so it shouldn't even be a separate thing, let alone a stretch goal that people have pledged money specifically for.

I think they also use "stretch goal" to mean "it would be nice for this feature to be done for the next patch although we aren't committing to it."

It is unclear how this doesn't make the entire game a stretch goal.

Like Ben posts some random poo poo about a wing commander manual and Samizdata appears demanding answers and accountability. When people ignore him because he is acting weird he starts going to the guys wife and hitting any tweets they make with :argh: ANSWER FOR YOUR CRIMES :argh: poo poo until the thread manages to talk him down


I like that your only real defense is that the employees you went nuts on weren't technically "random" employees.

And asking me not to be a redditor? I sarcastically joke about Star Citizen every now and then. You are the one running twitter campaigns of righteous anger and melting down talking about going to jail for assaulting Chris Roberts.

Be a little self reflective instead of super defensive buddy, it's a space video game kickstarter and we are making fun of how long it's taking and how much money they have.

You know it was Ben's little crowdfunded project, after all. So, I went to the source. When he didn't answer, I was considering asking his wife, who, you know, lives with him and all.

But I will take the Dredd reference and like it, I guess.

EDIT: Also, I wish I had an awesome British voice like Patrick Stewart.

And it's a little worrying how you can't see that that's slightly crazy. Haven't we mocked shitizens for wanting to do the same thing to Derek?

No you don't because when you have a reasonably well spoken British accent (such as I) it's almost impossible to order a coffee at any vendor in the States without people bombarding you with "You're from England? Omg that's so amazing, I love your accent..etc" and it gets very annoying.

Seriously.
