Drunk Theory posted:Ahh, but without Derek posting MoMA has no one he deems worthy of replying too. It'd depend on what his mood is. There's a funny MoMA, a rich tastes MoMA, a bash everybody MoMA, a target everything Derek MoMA, and cig defense MoMA. Some of these are personable and funny, others are almost silly in how mindlessly obvious they are at what they do. Regardless of how intellectual or wise MoMA seems, he'll rarely make a statement about his own feelings and actions if he's betrayed by cig development. When he does, he ultimately forgets, never responds to people calling him out on it, and continually moves his personal goal posts. There was one guy who was a backer and was sensible and seemed honest about his expectations. As cig continued to fail he just gave up and I think he said he got a refund at some point but no longer posts. I think he was named Loiosh? It's not bad to be a backer. It just gets silly when your own personal feelings and expectations constantly get bulldozer over by a multinational corporation doing everything it can do solely to take money. They don't even want a community any more. Just money. At what point do people start to scratch their heads? Is it the "threat" of people saying it's a scam that makes people want to support it more? Basically just for the sake of argument and belonging to something? I guess it's totally fine, though hopefully they are not still shoveling their own money in to it.

Canine Blues Arooo posted:Real Gantt charts don't look like this. It is hilarious that this is what they passed off as a 'real schedule' and then that people ate it up. Yeah, this is true. But is it motion capture? So really how much do you think CR will focus on it? Long enough to get some pictures and videos of him pointing at a computer screen while looking at things he doesn't know about. Plus this will only last until he sees a movie or something and decides to shift the whole of Development to build a Coruscant (spelling, sorry guys) Star Wars flying car scene through a crowded city cutscene of "totally real gameplay".

kingcom posted:What MOMA just loving said, was that the UI guy just loving throws some poo poo on the screen and the Game Designers need to guess and make best use out of the poo poo the UI person just stuck up there. Eric Schaefer on the Diablo II UI posted:I remember I was making the interface for [the skills trees]. There was a stone slab, and the skills would all fit into these sockets. And I thought, "OK, we're basically done, I'll just make this skill tree and this stone slab, and then we will fill it out with skills". At least ten, twenty times, almost per character, I'd have to redo the stone slab with different positions for the skills and different hierarchies between them. And we never had a tool to do this, so I had to render out a whole new stone slab every time we changed a single thing. I made a ton of stone skill tree slabs art over and over and over that all just got thrown away. So, that was a great example, if we had better tools, or if we knew what the process was going to be, I wouldn't have put all that work into it.

kingcom posted:No but loving real talk about what the hell goes into designing something. The newest expansion for EU IV came out, a confirmed Good Game. In it they introduce a new mechanic called the 'Age' System where if you're managing to achieve specific goals during a time period the 'Age' is set in then you get points towards some nice bonuses right. See below: Whoa, friend. Try not to let them get at you. Ignorance of reality is the Star Citizen motto.

CIG doesn't receive death threats nor consumer complaints for their non-delivery and skipped deadlines because they're holding a hundred and ftfy million of backer money in ransom. Makes you think.

Yes, that Pledge but it was edit to take that part out of it (being that it would then date it's self badly and show that they did not do it). You know, now you just edit those promise/pledges you make once you cant keep them ...... and not with "Sorry but I/we can't do that now" just change it and say "What do you mean, look right here it does not say that"

Actually let me correct that , cig blmed turbulent for the missing pledge if I remember I repeat myself. But does cig actually do anything (good or bad) or is absolutely every part of this project contracted out so they can lay blame more easily Wait they make pretty space ship jpegs Slow clap

I'm glad that CIG took 5 years to throw together a nonsensical development plan/timeline. This is definitely completely normal.

So have they released details on the drink-mixing minigame yet? I haven't bought a spaceship but I was assured I'd be able to make enough money to buy one by hiring on as crew to a Captain of Industry.

Kosumo posted:Could you copy text here? https://robertsspaceindustries.com/the-pledge You’ve pledged your money to earn your Citizenship. Now it’s our turn. We, the Star Citizen team at Cloud Imperium, hereby promise to deliver the game you expect. You, the tens of thousands of pledgers, have allowed us to cut out the big publisher and build the game on our terms. To let us focus on quality free of the pressure to deliver by a certain financial quarter. To nurture a new original IP. To put fun ahead of shareholder profits. We, the Developer, intend to treat you with the same respect we would give a publisher. You will receive regular updates about the progress of the game. We will do a show and tell for each major milestone. Your voice will be heard and represented in our development docs and our feature wish list. You will see art and video and learn about how we intend to implement gameplay mechanics well before the rest of the world. The website will be updated and the community will be maintained. Though the limitations of technology may slow us, we will always do the best for you: if it breaks, we will fix it. There may be delays and there may be changes; we recognize that such things are inevitable and would be lying to you if we claimed otherwise. But when this happens, we will treat you with the respect you deserve rather than spending your money on public relations. When we need to change a mechanic or alter something you believe should be in the game, we will tell you exactly why. Your support over the past month has been incredible. You’ve done your part, and we will now do our utmost to live up to your expectations. We will build you the game you are dreaming about. Signed, Chris Roberts and the Cloud Imperium Team

Sappo569 posted:Actually let me correct that , cig blmed turbulent for the missing pledge if I remember Oh, I'm sure that CIG contract out all the writing and directing work to another company owned by Chris Roberts, along with paying him and his wife fees to attend the live events. He may even be getting paid consultancy fees for his work for his own company. All that work is top notch thought so it's all in the 'good' side of the ledger and a good use of backer funds.

Tippis posted:Some truths have really stood the test of time, even in such an ever-changing field as computer languages: I just used VB because it's funny. The same problem arises from UI-first design in Delphi or Visual C++. It's a great tool when you've already designed the app. It's not so great when you're thinking of what it looks like before you know what it does. Disclaimer: I program in old basic because retro-computing is fun for me.
