I'm afraid that jar would exceed the donation tracker in about 2 weeks.

Is the chat interface Chris was bitching about in the 'Chris plays' video fixed yet? For some reason him completely bagging on his own game on livestream really stuck out to me.

How often has anyone seen him play it at all? I've only seen the two clips that get posted in this thread where he tries to play and fails, and the one where he's pretending to play something (I don't even know if it's supposed to be Star Citizen!) in VR. Everything else I've seen has been him talking about what they hope to do with the game, or describing what's happening on the screen while other people "play" it.

I mean, now I'm curious: in all the hours and hours of video chronicling the development of the game, is there anything that suggests he's invested in any part of the project beyond its visuals (cinematics, trailers, art, screenshots, etc.)? I know he trots out lots of examples of how immersive and high-fidelity and persistent it will feel to fly around in your ship and use its toilet and crash on moons and get missions from NPCs, but has he ever talked about game design in terms of what's fun to do, or how to balance different mechanics, or anything like that?

Yeah.

That sounds about right.

I seem to remember that Spectrum is supposed to be all in-game communication.

Thank God they got render to texture working, so Spectrum can be on a screen in a space ship.

I wonder if Chris even realizes the development holes he has thrown himself into.

So I don't normally watch any of this stuff aside from the funny videos. This is the 2nd time in as many views that Sherman has been in his chat defending the game and or design decisions

Like does the guy get a bat signal go up whenever wtfo goes live , So he can rush in and douse the flames ? This is so transparent to me

Also his comment is basically getting everyone ready for delta patcher 1.0 , but nothing else sorry folks delta patcher was ready but none of the content we wanted to release is ready FOR delta patcher. But it's coming in 3.1 we promise

I really want to play Warhams, but unfortunately my PC's being shipped. I've got another two days in this godforsaken state and then however long it takes for all my poo poo to show up. Luckily I've been too busy trying to do adult poo poo and move to really start noticing the withdrawals.

Honestly, you did good. You've got to learn how to fight, and you were showing marked improvement as things progressed. Main thing is to dodge those jumping strikes.

Thanks for demonstrating the game. I'm tempted to acquire it now.

Guard Frequency Episode 179 | CIG, Lies and Videotape http://guardfrequency.com/179

Mental Gymnastics & lols:
13:00 - I am not surprised or upset by the delay at all. At least it's only couple weeks delay instead of months
13:50 - Chris has a secret schedule in his head. The public schedule is to motivate devs to work harder
16:15 - "CIG always lies" "Chris Roberts always lies" but it's a good thing because,
16:30 - there is a complex strategy that we don't understand from the outside. CIG moves in mysterious ways
18:45 - We've had to make stuff up for 9 months while we wait for the something playable to come out
19:30 - [CONCERN] Uhh where's mining? 3.0 is supposedly 6 weeks away and we haven't seen any gameplay of Trading or Cargo
23:15 - 3.0 will come out, with uhh... features
27:00 - Chris is a perfectionist, but only on visual stuff. Bugs are fine

I actually bothered to listen to this whole stupid thing. To me, it just looks like a bunch of hopeful geeks looking for a cool new game. They don't poo poo on elite dangerous, and at least some of them are skeptical about CIG's ability to deliver. All in all I didn't see too much to make fun of here.

Oh of course! Slipped my mind. Really hope things go well, and that all your PCs are known shippables.

You folks are tempting me to stream now that I've seen Xaerael and yourself do it. How easy is it to set up? I could always stream some Warhammer campaign stuff, get real orcy for those interested in seeing that. Although if I was going to do that, I'd use the two mods I usually use, the 'green iz best' and 'stupid agents' because I loving hate hate hate having my generals being assassinated all the bloody time. If it was Medieval Total War 2, I could deal with it better, but I really struggle to be motivated to have a goblin git protecting my warlords all the time. Gork would not approve.

I play the game to have fun and to get big orcy scraps going on. If you're interested in such a thing, let me know and I'll be more likely to learn how to stream.

Or I could just carry on shitposting like I usually do.

Yeah, the jumps and rush attacks were screwing me over a ton. The bumper buttons on the dpad are hosed as I thought which really wasn't helping with the blocks, so I'll try and do something about that before I go back.

It's an eye meltingly pretty game though.
