Blue On Blue posted:If only that video of him could be used as evidence of willful misleading in marketing , fraud if you will I know right?  "Star Citizen is an *pre-alpha* first person experience spanning *an* solar system I feel the above is a little more accurate and only relevant if people one day get to play 3.0 and it does everything it's supposed to (which it wont).

Tokamak posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAabMDydq4Y&t=255s I can sort of understand getting sucked into the hype for something if the frontman has a lot of energy and charisma. But Chris looks really awkward and his tone sounds insincere. What kind of broke-brained weirdo do you have to be to fall into his cult of personality?

Haha that sanitized recollection of how Freelancer was born yesterday was exactly what you would expect supafan prime to say, I think I saw Scott Manly's eye twitching during that but probably best for his own safety he didn't interject any corrections  Also not a mention of its revolutionary control scheme that killed space sims that's also the hallmark of upcoming AAAA game Star Citizen

Chin posted:Guess it takes a while to fully deprogram. Yeah, sorry. I'm glad I got rid of everything (except my lovely basic pledge to make dumb videos with) but the turret changes hit especially close to home because much like Beer I was actually excited about a specific ship at one point and watched CIG systematically destroy everything that made it cool, something which apparently they're still doing. The couple of halfway cool ideas they had have been ground into dust and they keep coming out with more and more generic poo poo lol. I fully expect them to be selling a triangular "Sun Destroyer (original idea do not steal)" in a year.

However there is a general classification of "minor planet" for things they can't be bothered to call anything else and there's no lower limit for those, so I'm not lying! *****Some of our ******The ship you bought that was marketed as the premier dog-fighter that punches above its weight? It's now a biowaste reclamation truck, literally a poo poo hauler. Don't worry though, it still punches above its weight.

My memory is hosed, but I seem to remember even way back in the day, CIG saying people would have to spend upgrade slots, or downsize turrets to give them the ability to independently track and fire at targets. That really isn't anything new. Its still dumb as hell, ED does it better.

tooterfish posted:Nerds! It defines input as an integer. Should that not either be caught by a compiler if you try to call the function with a non-int, crash from type mismatch when you input a non-int into an int variable (meant to be sent to the function) or something along those lines? It's been a while since I coded anything. Arms_Akimbo posted:Last post on this. Maybe they did at first but the compiler gave a warning about trying to transfer a signed int value into an unsigned int, so they "fixed" it by making the 'k' variable signed? That could be what the comment above the function is all about.
