aleksendr posted:The only metric thay have everyone else beat is the "money / in game assets" ratio, where they are the only one having found whales willing to buy things that are not even existing, if even possible, in the game. I strongly dispute this. A single artist could whip up the assets in Candy Crush in a week, if they were lazy... And took a day off.

Hav posted:It led to a massive shakeup of military procurement that led to decent procurement of the A-10 and another platform I forget; something that has again been eroded until we got the F-35. Hence why Sprey (who was only nominally involved with both the hog and the viper) loves to get so uppety about the F-35.

I like how they renamed "armor" to "armour", and the website shows it changed in one place but "armor" still exists three other places.

They should do a day in the life of a cig developer where they just follow someone around with a camera all day and livestream it. Maybe then we can make some sense of how nothing ever gets done.

Hav posted:Ever since kickstarter started, I've wondered about the direction that it'll move in. Very quickly we saw the supporting industries start up like backerkit, but everyone wants to be sat in the middle collecting 15%. Good point! I never considered the number of companies who would want to be the collection agency. Being the middle man just lets you syphon in the money without really caring about the completion of the project. In "successful" ideas like Star Citizen, completing is basically akin to turning off the flow of money. There is no incentive for the project to complete. This is sort of where Kickstarter was good, because it stopped your funding and it also has stipulations about a released product if I recall. Stuff like this is basically the poo poo tier drug dealers, trying to get people hooked on something so they keep collecting money. I bet there will be a merge of internet marketing groups and these endless funding pages that will be designed for marketing your product, giving you "users" to post in forums to stir attention, and "help" you collect money for your project while they take a healthy, probably tiered, bounty off the top. If your project goes south, oh well. They just close shop, maybe have some kind of evacuation plan for you, and leave you to sifting through the remains while they keep their money squared away. This is just evil computer science and I hope the developers using these services feel just as bad as the developers knowingly creating the services.  You'd be better off putting pornhub on your resume than a scam system.

MinorInconvenience posted:If so, I'd expect it to stay in evocati for a looong time. Does anyone think they would ever release a 3.0 that didn't have seamless space to planet transitions? Actually, I can totally see them doing that. In fact, I would probably go one further and say I could see them releasing a 3.0 which not only doesn't have space to planet transitions but also has 'moons' where you can't explore the full surface of the sphere. I can almost hear Chris's voice saying it now... 'We've uh, still got some blockers on the uh, procedural planetary tech which we're uh,still trying to get ironed out but I don't want to keep the backers waiting any longer so we've uh, decided to give you some landing zones to explore, *rapturous applause* j-ju-just as a taste while we're smashing these bugs that allow us to deliver the full planets. So uh, have fun in these zones for now and we'll release the full planets in a month or so.' Of course the full planets never come.
