Yeah, a couple hours in and they are basically like "gently caress this, let me walk in place in the atmosphere because I'm bored."

Aramoro posted:I had the original Steel Battalion with the controller and that was so cool with all the switches you had to engage to get your mech moving. Especially when your base was under attack and you had to get up and running as quickly as possible. I really think that sort of flight systems check can add to a game but they've screwed it up so badly that it's got all the inconvenience of a systems check with none of the immersion. Try to get out of the pits and your car rolling in aa decent racing sim during qualifying once rain sets in. It's awesome (I totally never slammed my whole hand on the wheel because I couldn't find the fuel pump and ignition switches in VR....never....)

Achamp posted:Why would this even be a question. What was the biggest actual released thing last year. Spectrum. A lovely discord clone. This year. A lovely card game. I see a "Muster" variable, could be a lovely gwent clone. They might just go standard Pokemon or Magic style based on the setup. That poo poo sells. Whales will be buying up packs to get the special hologram cards. They might as well just make it resource based, with the only resource being fidelity. The more fidelity you have the more jpegs you can print and marketing campaigns you can launch. I know but it's just... sad...

loving lol at the jankiness when Deejay tried to pick up some other dude from a landing pad and it kept crashing into the ground with no physics whatsoever, and then double lol when someone shot the pilot moments later and they immediately cut away, and then triple lol when the pilot died and the ship *instantly came to a complete halt in mid-air*, remaining perfectly still until the shooter took control

D_Smart posted:True. But given how much they have riding on 3.0, did anyone really expect it would be THIS bad? That's a fair question. I would have expected much from CIG, but given how well they can control the community, I would have NEVER EVER thought that they would stream something this bad. No ELE twitter from Derek could have set me up for what I experienced today...seriously....

Also I love how they quickly cut away when they try to enter an Aurora so they don't show the janky-rear end animations.

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:HAHAHAHAHAHAHA the closest they could get to emergent gameplay ended up with the server being reset. One guy went to space outside the atmosphere, tried to EVA and found out that the demo level has no space in it anyway, just a simple gravity constant that pushes things down regardless of altitude/speed. He promptly proceeded to fall towards the ground, while trying to swim frantically. The other guy saw him and started moving towards his ship (which just froze in place above the planet since the pilot ejected). Then he proceeded to crash (blue text on the bottom), the camera moved again to the swimming guy (with lando trying to change the narrative), and then the server got reset all-together. Pretty adorable gameplay. Dante80 fucked around with this message at 14:58 on Aug 23, 2017 |

Cologne is only one and a half hour drive from my place, but I can't be arsed. Please someone from Köln go catch a Gamestar-guy and drag him to the CIG booth, live, and ask him questions..... not-even-e: don't do this! This is a joke on a dead gay comedy forum! Don't catch Gamestar liars and force them to do something, it's against the law.

Latin Pheonix posted:I know but it's just... sad... If ever there was a time to not feel bad about whales it's now. They just learned that 3.0 is now estimated for December 2017. A patch that a year ago they were told should be out Dec 2016. Instead of asking for accountability, or even just asking where the gently caress 85% of 3.0 is, they're making a mad dash for their wallet to give Chris more money. Reason has failed. Pity serves no one's interest. Laughing is pretty much the only sane thing left to do. Achamp fucked around with this message at 15:09 on Aug 23, 2017 |

What is sadder? The clusterfuck that's playing out live, or the fact that the reddit dumbs will still pour every penny they can muster into crappy ships, despite clear evidence the game isn't even close to vertical slice playable?

Latin Pheonix posted:The real question to ask is whether this stream is more or less embarrassing than the holiday stream last year. As far as Star Citizen streams are concerned, this was a relatively good stream. It was even better than last years Gamescom stream where they spent hours in the hanger giving a sales pitch, and an hour trying to get everyone onto a starfarer for a pretend FPS deathmatch. The video producer was on the ball, and the server reboots forced the streamers to try different things and not let it get too stale.
