Beet Wagon posted:if backers are just now getting mad about the espresso machine, do you think we should tell them about the private barista and the space door? Can’t because then it becomes tainted. They need to live through the first 3 years of the different threads themselves, as if this knowledge has never been discovered until they found it, to fully appreciate what they learn. This is why history is doomed to repeat itself.

Nalled it. Network culling is loving hard at best. And i’m just an internet idiot, not a diciple of Christ Roberts and His glorious Vision. How the gently caress are they so bad at game development? Remember, they’ve been talking about this feature for at least 2 years.

It's even funnier because Squadron 42 was announced as a standalone game in December 2015 and they started selling it as such in February 2016 but CryEngine didn't become free until March 2016.

Hav posted:"(they screwed up the mocap recording and all of the footage is useless)." This was evident in late 2015 where a senior animation artist on ATV talked about how hard it was to transform the mocap data to work with the latest version of the character rig. If I remember right, in 2015 they were on v6 of the player rig. God knows what version they’re on now. It’s like trying to hit a moving target on a moving boat from another moving target on a different boat.

Its sad when even Tommy Wiseau has a more accessible and larger cult following for a lovely project. Not to mention how similar the two are with their inability to grasp the english language as well as being terrible speakers in every sense of the word. Although, at least when Tommy forgets his lines, he's talking about ink on paper.

I once became ill after playing Elite for about 24 hours straight. I went to bed and began these horribly intense, fevered dreams that felt like real time hyperspace jumps. I would wake after each one, or as a result of exiting hyperspace. Needless to say this was some intense sleeplessness with unreal anxiety that only the saddest of sci-fi brains could self induce. So, no.

So, no. I have like 100 hours in the game, and the core is incredibly immersive. Being overly harsh on Elite is one of my many charming gimmicks. I’m glad you enjoy it my friend.
