D_Smart posted:Yeah, that's cute. I get what you are trying to show us, but referring to your own games like this makes all the claims of "Dumbwreck Shart only hates on CIG to promote his games" seem more believable to causal onlookers. Also I am hardly surprised you couldn't wait with announcing leaks until the 22nd like you said you would... the draw of the extra attention is just too strong, isn't it. Here is my prediction: ELE isn't coming any time soon, nobody goes to jail, refund cascade will not be a cascade. Calling it now, two years... July blog etc...

Seriously, if you like imperial conquests and getting rolled by a bunch of superintelligent monkey things, it's extremely your thing. It's in the tradition of Paradox grand strategy, meaning they roll out the DLC after the jpegs for a *game that is already out*. revolutionary idea that is going to transform gaming.

Doubt it, it's really going to gently caress them over with Cheshire and Frankfurt. There was some talk that a lot of the expat overseas votes not getting counted, and you had to be on the ball to get registered and vote as an expat.

Our graphics team have really created something I haven’t seen in any other engine and allows to actually do proper holographic telepresence. None of it’s pre-rendered or faked, it’s all live and the possibilities for longer term gameplay are pretty exciting.

zcrow posted:Oh yeah, totally. I'm not even clear how this is different from what's generally done. Normally you have a viewport off somewhere else, it's rendered as a 3D scene, and sent to a 2D texture as a surface, or just displayed in the view. That's a 3D volume being rendered, it's just elsewhere, and then pasted. This sounds like, you make a little bubble universe inside something which you can see into, with things in it, and render them, which eventually gets sent to your monitor as a 2D image. That's still just a thing being rendered and projected to the screen. What's the difference if the rendered volume is elsewhere, or magicked into being in something? I understand the behind the scenes difference, but I'm not understanding why any of that would make any difference whatsoever to the end consumer looking at their screen while playing a game. Please explain, I must be missing something.

Real game devs make things look cool while cutting every corner imaginable. Chris Roberts makes things "the hard way" and "real" because he's sure they can fix that sub double digit frame rate at some point in the future.

I wish they would spell out what the possibilities for gameplay are, i mean i don't think an in game skype call with another commando is all that exciting.

Anybody remember when CIG did the veteran's thing for 20$? You paid 20$ that would go to a charity and you got a unique upgrade for your hornet. Needless to say not everyone was happy about giving stuff to a veteran's charity.

You know if you figured something was a distraction for your staff you probably should have noticed that a long time ago I dunno like when you last went through your shows not even a year ago and gutted everything.

We live in a time that if someone female came out against punching baby bears in the dick, you'd have a PAC set up decrying the 'liberals' for wanting to take away god-given dick punching freedoms upon proto-killing machines. Someone's always mad, we just made the mistake of putting them on TV and catering to their bullshit. There's an intersection set there with Star Citizen, too.

BREAKING NEWS Rumor has it that next weeks ATV will feature a revolutionary new tech, developed entirely in-house at CIG. This paradigm shift in computer science will allow two computers to exchange information at lightning speeds without even being in the same room!. Labeled InterStarExplorer, the tech is very experimental so there are still some issues, but RSI feel confident that within the week, they can scale this tech to allow every citizen to inhabit the same virtual space at the same time. Think about it! Literally dozens of people, all gleefully T-posing together as if they were next to each other! This news came from my very reliable sources that are not at all personifications of the voices in my head.

I'm honestly asking about the rendering thing you're talking about, though. It sounds kind of interesting, but I'm not sure what it actually accomplishes.

Should have done this  No 3.0 for regular backers in 2017 (Not some hollowed out "3.0" You need to be able to fly from Olistar to the surface, hidden or blatant loadscreen is fine; and drive generally around the whole thing. No invisible walls at CRYENGINE_MAP_WIDTH)
