Pretty sure they can just replay what they showed last year and everyone will applaud.

**BREAKING*** two sources have now confirmed that 3.0 is such a technological nightmare, and performance hog, that nobody knows how they are going to end up releasing it within the current time frame; let alone for GamesCom. Croberts working on his new justification speech (aka newsletter), in which he may have no choice but to admit that the switch to LY hasn't been as straightforward (gee, who knew!?) as they made it out to be - seven months ago. It's amazing to me that since July 2015, I've been right about so many things, that those guys don't even bother recapping them anymore. This despite the fact that I document them religiously in my blogs and forum posts - for a reason. All that aside, the primary claim that "they can't build the game as pitched" and which everyone was saying that I was wrong about, remains true. Ignoring the $150m (they were at $85, and have since passed this) + proper engine (they switched to the more advanced LY) that I said they would need to pull it off. Recently (well, before GamesCom 2016), I said that they simply didn't have the tech to do procedurally generated planets, that the pitched 3.0 was bullshit dipped in Ether. Less than 6 months later, 3.0 has been significantly scaled back. And has moons - in a level - instead of procedural planets (shown in an elaborate R&D video showcase posing as in-game). ps: There is another JPEG sale tomorrow June 23rd. So they're probably going to lie in tomorrow's 3.0 schedule update, then update it again the following week with the proper data.

It's one of their major crowdfunding shindigs. Combined with CitizenCon, it's their end of year 2-for-1 backer face punch.

IncredibleIgloo posted:I just agreed to buy this JPEG for hundreds of thousands of real dollars. Will it be completed before Star Citizen? Will it be completed before 3.0? Your roof texture is very non-fidelitous. Better refactor now before they begin. Be sure to install the ceiling lights first thing though so everybody can see what they're building. After that I suggest you begin landscaping immediately, followed up with windows. Probably do your roof next after the refactor and think about the color you want the foundation to be. By then though you'll know that your lights aren't the right color of white, so you'll need to get better lights. Have them install the kitchen sink so you can verify that it is deep enough for your future dishes.

Drunk Theory posted:Really... The "Golden Ticket" requires assistance commandos. Please help them in the LV "Spend More Money" Germany is important for them. For some reason those tedium games like Euro Truck Simulator or farming Simulator or loving airport bus driving simulator is "the hot poo poo" in Germany, as the cool kids say. When Star Citizen comes along and offers the opportunity to be a truck driver (in space) or a news van driver (in space) or a box stacking specialist (in space), the Germans are all jumping at the opportunity and opening their wallets. So, in a way, you could say the game is Kraut funded. yeaaaaaaaahhh.mp3

beautiful fatman posted:hahahahaha loving of course it is This falls in line with CIG coding expectations. The guys doing cargo were their own group, so they assigned "cargo" to a piece of cargo. The ship itself doesn't have cargo, but it can hold these boxes maybe. It's also the FPS system and not the space system, which is hard. You buy a box, get a box, move the box by hand, then load the box. Do this for each box. Fly somewhere else. Unload the box, sell the box, do this for each box. And done! Looking forward to the immersion videos!!!

Croberto has no vision. There's nothing in his wretched game that isn't a shabby knock-off of one or two sci-fi franchises from 40 years ago. Edit: Also does the thread have any recommendation for a decent sci fi novel? My flag has always firmly been planted in the cyberpunk camp, so I'm used to near future corporate hellholes with bionic implants and underdog hacker scum popping speed and contemplating their ennui. Never really got into this deep space opera stuff. BeigeJacket fucked around with this message at 18:12 on Jun 22, 2017 |

Apparently there are people who would like to do that in the game. Load their ships with cargo themselves. Or Chris thinks there are. Or people think that it would be a great feature, even though they will never actually use it, because of the multitude of realistic scenarios it somehow opens up. My guess is that the simple implementation of carrying a small box is as far as they are going to get with this one. Then nobody will use it, and they will decide to cut it out.

A bunch of morons on the official forums made sure you were going to have to hand load cargo because they didn't want it to be like Elite (  ) because Elite isn't fidelitous enough lol
