If you have your heart set on a HOTAS: Thrustmaster T.16000 FCS is around USD 110 from Amazon most days. Very good HOTAS for the money. Personally I use CH stuff, but that has gotten expensive in the 3 years since I bought my set up plus requires pedals since the sticks don't have twist. That being said I played the X-wing series with a CH Flightstick Pro back in the 90's. And you can still buy them brand new with USB cables still. BTW: Joysticks/HOTAS's I current own Thrustmaster T16000 FCS + Rudder Pedals T. Flight 4 (can use same rudder pedals as above) T.16000 Joystick (old style) CH Fighterstick, Pro Throttle, Pro Pedals, Flight Sim Yoke, and Throttle Quadrant (This is the current set up I use in various configurations for almost all my flight games) Thrustmaster Warthog (Only use with BMS & DCS) Logitech Extreme 3D Pro Joysticks & HOTAS's I've had over the past 5 years: T.

My favorite thing is just how hilariously huge this whole project has become. I mean you have entire rooms full of people working feverishly on something that is hopelessly hosed. Chris's Magnum Opus is going to be the biggest disappointment in the history of gaming.

Does one require some combination of tattoo/beard/funky hat to work at CIG? Or is it a coping strategy for how bland everything they make is? "I'm expressing myself" he screamed inwardly as he wasted another day tweaking a nondescript spaceship for a nondescript spacegame directed by a potato man with rickets who happens to be trapped in a black turtleneck

David Jennison posted:Forrest became involved in the character pipeline when it was decided to redo the FPS characters. I like Forrest on a personal level. I think he is a good guy at heart and is doing the best job he can with the experience and personality he has. His mandate from CR was to improve the look of the characters. So what is the problem? Experience and attitude. Forrest came into the character pipeline full force. He had already decided what was lacking for characters. Namely- the ship art pipeline and techniques. He was not concerned with budget and memory. He was not concerned with time. He wanted what CR wanted- great looking screenshots. He dismissed my concerns about the time it will take to do characters like ships, tri count, and memory. He told me that I didn’t know how to model characters (after eight years of doing this). Forrest is very green, but more importantly it is obvious that he does not know how to deal with conflict or even disagreement. Putting someone with so little experience in games and no experience with characters in charge of the character team was frankly insulting. Billy and I spent a month undoing many of the ship techniques that Forrest had insisted on- mostly multiple materials and how the UVs were laid out. I wouldn’t expect someone at Forrest’s experience level to know what is common sense to anyone who has shipped a title. That is-plan for the game, not for screenshots and know that you will have less memory than you think. Forrest made every rookie mistake in the book in his charge, but what was worse is that he mowed down anyone who challenged his naive assumptions with insults and dismissal. With CR at his back, he stomped around like a child wearing his Father’s boots. Convincing Forrest that he might be wrong about something is a campaign in itself. Forrest might have value from his contributions to other areas of the art, but his involvement with characters was wasteful in time and effort, and absolutely corrosive to moral. He is simply the wrong man for the job and is one of my biggest reasons for leaving.

For everyone else, you've given them hundreds of thousands, if not millions, to pursue whatever they want to do.

BTW, reading the Evocati patch notes, I have to question if they actually have a decent QA (who am I kidding, of course they don't). IIRC, CIG always proclaimed that the builds go through their internal QA, and then to Evocati to catch bugs which occur when a huge variety of hardware runs the game plus different locations and people. So basically standard procedure. The bugs listed as patched, however, appear to me as bugs which should have been caught by internal QA, because many of them don't seem like they are related to playstyle, hardware config or network stuff. So I guess we can assume that their whole "we are working hard to get the build through internal QA so it's Evocati ready" is a lie and it's more like "we are working hard so the build is at a state where our devs can play it for ten minutes or longer after the builds is finished, then we push it to Evocati for the dirty work. Our internal QA is a pink haired girl, though, which we mostly use for PR". Mind you, that pink haired QA girl actually seems to be one of the few decent person working at CIG.
