What is the context to this? Was he trying to lay a fat burn or something?

I think he's trying to retort that there's a good reason the show is late for the millionth time. I imagine someone remarked with a sort of "Remember when ATV was broadcast on time?" and he went for a kind of ridiculous swing. I would imagine those earlier shows didn't show anything because they didn't have anything at the time to show, as opposed to now where it's all cafeteria and asian aliens all the time.

what is the biggest, most expensive, highest crew spaceship they have made available for sale, and what is the biggest, most expensive, highest crew thing you can actually use in the playable alpha

Uhhh I think the biggest most expensive highest crew spaceship they have sold is the Javelin Destroyer which is the size of a space station and crews God only knows how many (zero haha it'll never work with their netcode) and costs thousands of dollars. The biggest ship in the game right now is the Starfarer which costs 300 and crews 8 assuming by "crews" you mean has jobs for like three guys and then five other guys just run around.

The thought of getting 24 players to crew a ship in an instance within the Amazon cloud, localized within physics grids and geographical locations to take into account how slow the speed of light is, combined with writing tens of millions of rows on a transnational and distributed DB per minute to store the PU persistent state is trivial. Of course there are the nine million NPC's that have to be layered on top.

Just so we're clear, I'm going to be running everyone's posting patterns through a heuristics and pattern recognition algorithm to determine if you are worthy of my respect online in these forums.

This is totally normal and if you think it's weird then you, and not I, are bad and uncool.

I'll have your results in a week after I have fed the relevant information matrices into my federal posting database, de-smegged said database, and then run my holistic heuristic autistic algorithm thoroughly.

Or if they are from a halfway decent company with an actual track record. Among others, I preordered Doom 2016. It was great, other than Kinguin being idiots. (No plastic, so I gave the money to a friend and he decided to use them) It all worked out in the end, and I shot MANY monsters. IN SPACE!

Player character is just code for "cameraman" as you watch the massive Roberts epic play out before you. Occasionally you'll fly for a couple minutes between scenes in some kind of poo poo space mini game.
