Cats, tied to sticks, frozen winter poo poo, etc. It's still hilarious to me, but a man can get tired of watching the gullible praise their captors.

Hello, I'm back. I watched the 1 hour trimmed stream of Nothing But The Steak that CIG put up on Twitch, and here are my thoughts: 1. the 'game' as presented looks nice. The city looks great, and there's a good number of NPCs wandering about or standing on chairs as dictated by their incredible AI that for some reason the further out the 'player' gets from the centre of the station the more it seems to choose just standing in one place occupying space almost as if all of the animations are hand-crafted and they ran out of time. 2. Honestly, the city looks great when he's on foot. Especially helpful is that the stamina system is disabled within it so you can sprint from one end to the other without having a heart attack. It's single-player RPG-level quality in terms of visuals. 3. Their interaction system is still poo poo and unintuitive where you have to know what's interactable before you can focus on it to get interactions. This is seriously awful and I have no idea how people haven't made a fuss about having to 'look' at some random button on your spaceship to get an Engine On option that also allows you to turn the Engine Off when it already is. 4. Flying slowly around buildings making it painfully obvious there is no code to handle collisions with them. 5. Surface of the planet looks nice. 6. Time to travel for EIGHT loving MINUTES!?!? Who the gently caress designed this, and Chris says it will actually take EVEN LONGER to get to a quest destination in the real game. Lmao, and they make fun of Elite for not having content. 7. Break time for tools discussion. This where poo poo gets real. 8. The planet-spanning city is procedurally generated because otherwise it would be completely impossible to physically do - however, the tool they present is painfully labour-intensive in terms of putting down height maps and dictating zones and stuff. Why would you need this tool if it's procedural? You wouldn't, it would be a list of rules about how buildings clump and how landing zones are spaced and what they contain. They demonstrate 'reseeding' a neighbourhood outside of whatever Blade Runner City is called - why are the neighbourhoods generated on a different seed? The whole planet should be one seed that dictates everything. They are 'procedurally' populating the planet with manually created content. That is buttfucking insane, and explains why previous planets were obviously copy-and-paste tiles. Visually it's more excusable when it's man-made objects that could be standardised like buildings, but the previous crater repetition makes it obvious this is how they're doing their generation. 9. They don't mention how the interior tool is connected to the building assets at all, so I'm entirely convinced it can create impossible spaces. They have probably worked around this by giving it a smaller footprint than any of their possible buildings, or making buildings just massive squares at the street level. It's nothing amazing, but watching it manually place pipe assets and poo poo during generation is insane. Again, hugely manual labour intensive despite being sold as a time saver it is just a basic level editor with automated decoration placement. 10. I forget the other tool they showed but it had the same issues of not actually saving any labour costs above having basic tools for designing a game. Certainly not on the level that you need to generate planet-wide amounts of content. 11. Talking about placing more landing zones and populating them. The whole planet is uninteractable window-dressing outside of these landing zones, so no talk about how they're going to restrict people to the zones they have manually created to interact with. No reason to go to other zones because all of them will have the same basic content just shuffled a little more. 12. Wow we're on another planet that's largely the same as all the other planets we've seen down to using the same smoggy smokestacks we just saw on Coruscan't. Apparently this is a planet where there's no federal oversight so there's some wildlife here that drifts around and eats garbage. I have named them Citizens.

SCtrumpHaters posted:I'm not a true believer. I just don't think the gimmick has enough 'depth' to be funny. The SC drone crowd has way to 'scripted' of a response set to be able to sell individuality on a random forums account. Bring up one of the literally dozen features that isn't in the game? "It will be eventually" or "That wasn't a promise / You misinterpreted Chris!" Mention that the game is taking a lot longer to build than it maybe should? "They are making really good progress! See, I can do *trivial thing* and that means whole secret feature sets exist!" Remind them that 3.0 is delayed by more than a year and is missing a lot of features? "*Feature* wasn't promised / You misinterpreted Chris" and/or "They are really polishing it!" Insist the entire game looks like a hilarious mess run by incompetent leaders? "You don't understand video game development" There isn't enough to actually pivot on to express individuality in the gimmick, which I think is why it's just not interesting.

Isn't there sliding in Crysis 2 and parkour like elements, or am I thinking of FEAR, which was released like a million years ago Chin posted:It's been established for some time now by Chris that they want to have flight control corridors that restrict where players can fly on populated planets or near population centers. The entire demo was based around doing stuff players aren't even meant to be able to do in the hypothetical game that will never exist. Innovating in the space of bullshots here.

Now you're just trying to wind me up You know, there's things like VAULTING and uh, you know SLIDING and uh, different kinds of... STANCES that we have and there's... a lot more WEAPONS that we have... and they're all getting rolled out and we're HONING it and you guys are gonna be playing it in 2.2 and 2.3 and 2.4, and... then, uh, when we've got that basic set, we... together we will sort of... turn on the MAP for Star Marine... Where in that gibberish does it say "we are working on" I've bolded where it says "they're all getting rolled out" 'Turning the map on for Star Marine' tells you that it's all bollocks anyway they're all getting rolled out you guys are gonna be playing it in 2.2

The Derek Smart guestbook shot was the best, in a just world the reaction shots would end up on liveleak Was the audience as bored and sad as they looked during the marathon of presentations as they looked on the stream? Were the 'where the gently caress is the gameplay" greetings limited to the subset of known yucksters or a general theme? Did they let people in the building on time or did they have to wait on the sidewalk for an extra hour or two like normal? Was it as much of a sausage fest as it looked on this end? Did Crobbler make his rounds on the floor soliciting drinks? so many questions

Very good article by Polygon. Plenty of facts with a nicely obfuscated skepticism: Star Citizen’s fan convention introduced a planet-sized city right out of Blade Runner: “This is pretty much Coruscant” quote:"The surface of Arc Corporation, while interesting, isn’t intended for players to interact with in-game. In the future, Roberts said, Arc Corporation may include more than one location where players can land their ships and engage with vendors and quest givers in a fixed, social hub with other players. But, for now, the goal is to design an interesting landscape and nothing more. quote:"The 3.0 version of the project’s PU is currently in an advanced testing stage, and is expected to be in the hands of backers imminently, though no release date has been given.

Come on man, I keep a list of lies on the front page. Star Citizen Litany of Lies Original Promise: "Single Player – Offline or Online(Drop in / Drop out co-op play)" New Truth: Isolated co-op missions outside the campaign. Original Promise: "Mod-able multiplayer (hosted by YOU)" New Truth: "We will be live and in operation for some time before anybody even looks at private servers." Original Promise: "We have backed Oculus Rift and will support it in Star Citizen / Squadron 42." New Truth: "Sorry to say, do not hold your breath for this." Original Promise: "Star Citizen will launch with 100 star systems." New Truth: 5-10 star systems at launch.

This was part of the scope change. 2. Mod able multiplayer will come. It is not a priority. This is not a lie. Its going to happen and theres zero evidence to believe it wont. If you want to get super literal people already edit config files easily already. 3. The dont hold your breath was a junior lighting artist who doesnt know poo poo. Since then CIG has made several statements contradicting Parry and are implementing TrackIR in prep for VR. There is no reason to believe VR isn't coming. 4. This was refuted a week or two after this happened on RSI. You know this. They've shown they can create large play areas fairly quickly. Like I get its funny to doom and gloom I did the same but you have to be careful not to huff your own bullshit too much. These aren't lies in any but the most tortured sense of the word.
