Nothing is funnier than a dog in a formal outfit. Look it up on the internets.

This blatant "I can't admit to my mistakes so I create some bullshit dream of how I'm right" mental gymnastics is exactly why CIG can never do anything they can't flip and make good in their minds. poo poo on my chest and I'll tell you how it's ok I took your steamy load for the greater good.

Jesus H Gandhi Christ, people this illogical really grind my gears.

I feel this is totally ok to get pissed irl about because it's not about a "game". It's about the state of the stupid parts of the human condition. I know gently caress wads like this in real life. They could kick a newborn puppy and find a way to justify it to other people.

I'm sure he stubbed his toe this morning, and how realises he has to redo the mocap to add the fidelitous option of doing every action with a slight limp.

You can always find a reason to do more mocap.

Alternate title: “Why boom is just that much better.”

Amusingly I was watching a documentary last night about them using the fuel lines to 'tow' fighters back to base in vietnam, then they had a contemporary story about an F4 over the Atlantic with engine trouble that they used a boom to 'tow' up to altitude and back to land.

We got confirmation on ATV that Kythera AI is being removed. I had presumed it when they started talking about subsumption as if they were building it from scratch. You would read speculation from backers about bringing Kythera in-house or that subsumption is based on it, but CIG remained tight lipped on the matter. We can add Moon Collider, another failed outsourcing contract to the pile.

Early days. Glad to see they're making progress by cutting out what they don't need. 10% of 100 is 20% of 50.

This is highly questionable in my opinion.
Also, the way they do this, I assume you won't get blown away by opening an airlock from the outside without depressurizing it first.

Did Croberto really cast himself in his Wing Commander movie, or is that gif of his chariot being pushed off the side of the space thing a shop?

The crobblers casted himself (for more sweet royalty, of course), the scene with the space bulldozer is not of his chariot being pushed off the space carrier deck. Its Freddy prize love interest ship.

In the original cut , the Crobbler is literally the savior of the protagonist, rescuing him after the finale as a S&R ship pilot.


He's also rumored of being triple and quadruple dipping for his salary for SQ 42, being the "Producer", "Writer", "Realisator" and "CEO" of the studio, drawing salary (or royalty) for each position.

Yes, but that isn't Roberts ship being pushed off the cliff. The movie would have been more successful if it was, however.

I've seen the gif many times, but really? Goddamn.

Alot of directors like to cast themselves, but almost universally as super small cameos and throwavay parts, often dying. It takes balls to make yourself into a guy who saves the day.

Chris Roberts actually casted himself in the (god awful) extended Freelancer intro movie that got cut.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=exR36BzJCdo

I said it before; but the original intro was really cool and set up a nice world, without spoiling too much.

The extended intro is just awfully poo poo and garbage and features Crobbers as some random dude, obviously.

It also runs on a subscription of iirc 40 bucks a week which gave you five glasses of juice

so pretty much the scam part of the business model as well.

Having seen far too many Sandler movies, I'd prefer if Sandler adopted Roberts' model-- that way he wouldn't have to inflict the result of the scam on the rest of the world. But at least the only people Sandler scams are coked out Hollywood investors; Roberts steals from the mentally ill.
