The Titanic posted:Just so nobody forgets, and to give all sides a fair shake, Freddie Prinze Jr said that he enjoyed working under Chris Roberts direction and would do it again. He said this probably unaware of the Star Citizen drama boat, and had no reason to say anything dishonest, so I believe him.

That leaked S42 script is great - I'm surprised it hasn't been mined more for thread content. Pretty much confirms Roberts has seen Star Wars and a few eps of Battlestar Galactica a bunch of times, and absolutely nothing else.

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:A lot of what we're seeing in terms of "progress" is easily produced fluff. It's easy to hire an artist to make a picture, have an amateur bang out a piece of terrible fiction, or to have two people sit in front of a camera and awkwardly talk about nothing. CIG does these things because they can occur in a vacuum and deliver a lot of "content" for little in the way of time or talent. It's all a giant farce while the actual developers struggle to produce anything while drowning in over half a decade of lovely code and half-assed implementation all while dealing with Chris constantly changing direction and demanding they drop everything to produce a demo. The actual hard stuff like networking, gameplay, optimization, and physics are constantly pushed back or hacked together so that the backers have something to play with. In the context of developing an actual product it seems insane, but in the context of trying to keep a struggling project afloat while hiding the truth from the backers it makes perfect sense. ^ This

Been gone from watching this project since last years Citizencon. Trying to go to the SC forums, and I met with that new interface. Why in the name of Cthulhu is an online forum thread structured like reddit? Can I change it back? I cannot imagine that the online community for that game likes the new forums look..do they?

I don't even care if Freddie PJ is 40k deep in SC. He's been married to the ultra hotness Buffy (SMG) for like 15 years. He could fall down an exceptionally long flight of stairs in to a big steaming pile of poo poo covered Wing Commander floppy disks and I'd still be jealous. I mean so would Ben but for totally different reasons

I'd love to hear the explanation of all the development time spent on spectrum, a complex and universally hated replacement for an entirely functional system that added nothing what so ever to the game itself.

When Crobblers presentation in the CitCon '16 focused for hour(s ? ) on Spectrum, you just knew that this was the only thing that they were really working on. Other than the last minute demos and ship promos that is (and patching Star Marine together to be barely functional). The fact that of all the stuff that they have on their list, they choose to focus on the least important ones or completely unnecessary ones -- and as such the least affected by the collective dreaming of whales and Crobbert -- shows that there's a lot of confusion in their development process and goals. And they have no project management to rescue them.

Spectrum got done because it was given to an outside company. They wanted to finish and get paid and so did what they were asked for. Unlike anything CRoberts is involved in.

Chalks posted:I'd love to hear the explanation of all the development time spent on spectrum, a complex and universally hated replacement for an entirely functional system that added nothing what so ever to the game itself. The problem with those pesky RSI forums was that people kept quoting them back at CIG's staff. Certain regrettable elements kept taking various "promises" and "remarks" made a number of years previously as if they were binding. CIG staff actually found themselves confronted with the words of their past selves and colleagues, and expected to respond to them! The atmosphere in the RSI forums was getting quite explosive towards the end. Backers were angry., heavy-handed moderation was becoming more and more obvious to keep them in line, and "moved to concern" was a meme here. CIG couldn't keep the old forums under control, and the old forum software made it easy to see when posts and threads had been deleted or buried in the Concern forum. Let's not forget the old CIG stunt of moving a critical thread to Concern, then immediately locking it because all Concern forum threads had to have polls. Whereas the new Spectrum makes it far smoother to simply disappear a pesky rabble-rouser and their threads, with no evidence at all. Even better Spectrum isn't public; only confirmed backers who are committed to the project (read: unlikely to embarrass CIG by complaining too hard) can even read them. With the single click of a mouse a moderator can not only banish a FUD-spreader, they can wipe out their posts AND ensure the target can't even read the discussion afterwards. Spectrum was created to shut the RSI forums up because they were getting so critical they were putting the funding pipeline at risk. No more, no less.

Honestly, if someone wants to actually archive Derek's BS, good on them. I don't know why they would want to specifically, because I don't think it is an important thing to do. Maybe for lol's? r/ds is not an archive. This latest dry spell is driving me up the wall.

Rugganovich posted:Received a reply from the ACCC I'm interested to know how this turns out. I was a huge idiot and bought 200USD's worth of .jpeg space guns in a similar game, Eternal Crusade. I'm waiting a few months on that one, though, because the terms and conditions gave them a year to put my items in the game after release. The ACCC website mentions delivery has to take place 'within a reasonable timeframe' and I reckon that initial agreement is my best argument as to what's reasonable I'll chuck an email at the ACCC at the end of September
