Working at foundry 42 must be inspiring, seeing Erin making such a massively inflated salary. All you need is no hard work, no determination, and being Chris Robert's brother.

The Titanic posted:Glad you managed to get out, friend. Not in that goony/smartie haha you stuck it to them, but in that way that I'm just glad you could see it for what it is and that you did it before the slowly impending MVP that will likely be used to stop refunds. Friend, I'm happy to see both those whoever put any money in to Chris Roberts dream and Chris Roberts lose it all. I mean, it was always a Chris Roberts project, what the gently caress was anyone ever thinking kickstarting anything from that idiot? Let alone those who ever had more than the normal price of a pre order of a AAA game in it. Pre ordering is dumb; those pre-ordering a Chris Roberts game are super dumb. Refund or not. To be happy that people have got their money back is sad at best, they where foolish to have ever put money in it to start with and most likely should have been taught a lesson by losing their money so as to think twice in the future. In saying that, I do believe in consumer laws and CIG are most definently in breach of many so people should rightly get their money back. Anyone who would ever put the likes of hundreds, if not over a thousand dollars into a single computer game are dumb, weither it was just 'disposable income' or not. Chris Roberts is a inept fool at best, a con artist at worst - anyone ever giving him money deserves what they get. My opinion. Kosumo fucked around with this message at 09:31 on Jun 21, 2017 |

Nah, you just have to show that you've learned from your mistake and become a better hunter so the poor cat doesn't have to support and teach you. To make it sad, you have to catch a mouse of your own and bring it home to the cat. What an insult!

From alleged Evocati sources although I can't confirm. Pinch of salt: No Evocati This Week; Update on Friday! pinned discussion Today at 21:17 Hey ladies and gents... I know our Production Schedule said our range of start dates began June 21 (which naturally everyone was getting excited for). However, we will not start 3.0 testing this week. We're making tremendous progress - and it will certainly be worth the wait - but there's a fair bit of work to do still. We're working directly with the production team on this and will have a full updated schedule this Friday. Stay tuned.

You can't play-test a pre-alpha build that is getting reduced in features week by week, but aren't you happy that Chris and crew got to "play" it on-stage last year?

AbstractNapper posted:Sounds about right for them. excuse you but that never happened or people might start to wonder why it's almost been a year since they supposedly saw 3.0 being played and paid 10,000,000$ in sales for that fact. It's almost as if those demos weren't representative of what CIG actually had complete and were instead designed specifically to make money. That is if they ever happened which they didn't.

D_Smart posted:Made with CryEngine. #notsquadron42 quote:The question is, will Crytek be around long enough to realise Hunt's potential? A source close to the studio has told Eurogamer Crytek was once again late to pay salaries this month, but the development team is pouring its heart into the game, buoyed by the chance to create a core-focused shooter.

radd posted:I was more trying to make fun of the size of the "game" than the price of the drive, but that fell flat. Yes, exactly. Sending junk physical goods to people will help them secure a delivered state. People have stuff in their hands and digital goods in their internet. No matter who you are as a judge or jury you'll understand that stuff was transferred to the recipient.

Tijuana Bibliophile posted:Agreed, there's a good chance they're legit Now see, you have a point. Not sounding like a developer at CIG basically means you may actually be the lead AI programmer or something. Not knowing what the heck you're doing is almost a job requirement. Do you think you know more than Chris Roberts*? [Yes] [No] (* knowing more than Chris Roberts invalidates you as a candidate for employment, even if you only think you might)

Exinos posted:Working at foundry 42 must be inspiring, seeing Erin making such a massively inflated salary. If you get that depressed though you can cheer yourself up by going to watch some of your director of marketing's independent films that she makes tirelessly with local teens and twenty-somethings in Hollywood, California. You can figure out which may interest you the most by watching or reading the promotional materials she does for them via various social media avenues. While browsing these you can warm yourself by realizing that the company you work crunch for non stop is also paying her probably near a million dollars a year for her hard work on your project. In her charity projects you can see her taking pictures with the cast, and generally promoting herself as "I'm so happy to be part of this project!!!" But don't worry, if you switch to the social media she does for the company paying her salary you can see pictures of monitors and random meetings. None of which feature her as actually being there, or being happy about it. So next time you get a dressing down or insulting email from a Roberts, especially Sandi, remember how hard your director of marketing is working. She probably had a bad day recording movies with the up and coming college-grade and below independent film makers.

Deathsquid posted:In the last 6 years, the RSI has dominated four studios, which it has united into one devzone, CIG. The RSI has origins from the Kickstarter Development in which a bunch of hopefuls and has-beens tried to ride the nostalgia train to riches. All studios except for the RSI swore reasonable development time upon their backers. There is no financial accountability in the RSI, and all self-controlled transportation has been made illegal without undergoing painful mocap procedures, in which arteries are severed without pain resistant, operated entirely by machines. The way they work claim to be the most hygenic and healthy way possible, but these machines often rub against pain points, causing great deals of pain to patients. The heart is then extracted from the body and placed into a glass grinding machine. Various energy centers are also dissected and replaced with donuts and candy. After the painful, 52 hour surgical procedure, patients will then have to use a fused guidance tool, which pumps painful resistors into the body every 2 hours. The development they have caused is so bad, the game models would freeze in a tense T-position. They would then clip through the floor afterwards.

Kosumo posted:Friend, I'm happy to see both those whoever put any money in to Chris Roberts dream and Chris Roberts lose it all. It's a slippery slope really. I don't care if people pre-order stuff. I don't care if they buy stuff that's junk. I'm not the world's mother trying to direct them to spend money wisely. But for stuff that screams "I'm pretty much a lie!" I have some hope that people will wake up and smell the coffee. Also the original scope of Star Citizen was totally doable. So was Sq42. One was basically a Freelancer with better graphics and walking around at big landing places, and the other was just 3D cutscenes between scripted missions. Neither one was hugely out of the ordinary outside of maybe Star Citizen and walking around ships. But that was cool and has been done before in other genres so it'd be a neat difference to set them apart from the crowd. But now we're 5+ years in, no sign of even a functional demo that proves anything works as expected, no vertical slice, etc etc etc. I don't get jubilant because XXBobXX got a refund, but I do have a "Oh good for you" internal nod of approval for them. If other people want to burn money, I don't care either. I'm kind of done bandstanding refunds at this point. Those that are still buying will do it, but I think eventually most people will stop. I also think CIG is helping that with their whole "get your buddies to join!" Because those buddies will probably say "this is poo poo, what the gently caress is wrong with you?" And a buddy telling somebody that is far more effective than 1000 July blogs saying exactly that in a billion words.
