Toops posted:lol it's just my opinion man. And honestly, the fact that I've actually modeled 3d faces myself probably makes me the biased one. I'm really poo poo at modeling, so I probably give CIG too much leeway, especially given how many professional "best in class" artists they have, let alone how much they've oversold the ground breaking fidelity that Star Citizen will revolutionize PC gaming with. Nah sorry, it wasn't meant to come off as snarky, I was just being honest - I legit have less experience with any of this stuff than you. I wasn't intentionally being a dick, just accidentally.

P.S. Star Citizen's "Main competitor," Elite Dangerous, has been out for so many years that you can now buy it for $7.50 on Steam. http://store.steampowered.com/app/359320/Elite_Dangerous/

It's almost like real professional outfits would have their poo poo together a few days or even weeks ahead of time. CIG tries to ram everything together the day of, like a college student staying up all night to put together their paper after loving around for 4 months. What a poo poo show.

So a completely broken engine that is only realized as being unsuitable for presentation is discovered as such literally minutes before the event thanks to a final review. But, with a year or more to prepare, and assuming this thing was ready to go until that final review revealed it was complete poo poo, how can they be certain that 24 hours is enough time to get it working? 5 years certainly hasn't been enough. 24 hours does seem to be sufficient time to re-jigger the event around pre-recorded snippets of actual gameplay, rather than live in-engine shots. Calling it now.

Are they going to make another documentary video about how they tried so hard to have things ready for the 2017 holiday stream?

The Titanic posted:So what I’m hearing is CIG has been making renders in Maya and saying “it’s totally real guys!!!” In much the same way as a ship is parked on a photograph of some real world location is also “totally in game!!!” And now when they actually have to start showing stuff it turns out Maya has a significantly better renderer than CryEngine does even with all the bells and whistles set to maximum fidelity. CIG probably can't pay the bespoke animation sweat-shop contractor for the full cutscene and violated all terms of their contract.

Yeah, we couldn't get our poo poo together in time for CitizenCon so we pushed it back to the Holiday Stream, but then we couldn't get our Best drat Jank Simulator Cinematic to work right still and everyone made fun of Mark looking like a downey, so Chris wants more emergency polish done to up the fidelity levels, so we are going to have to push our stream back another 24 hours. But join us tomorrow, it's going to be epic! We have our very own Space Hobo to tell you all about our new Tank Simulator for sale as well as plugging our usual lineup of JPEGs!

Chris kept saying "Oh things are better now that all the people that question me are out of the company" last year and the faithful was lead to believe that all the pipelines were clean and ready to go now that the leavers were gone but nope. 2-3 major releases this year turned into 0, SQ42 was definitely coming out this year and now they cant put together a 2 hour presentation of it. 3.0 is realistically months away from a stable, feature complete version.

Remember that time when Blizzard got on the stage at Blizzcon and announced that the presentation for the next big project got delayed for 24 hours? Or when Sony cancelled their appearance at E3 because their new super secret console needed some polishing? Or when EA promised a new trailer and failed to air the commercial for the latest Madden game because of technical reasons? What do you mean no?

I'm just glad CIG has done so much ground-work and now the pipelines are lubed and tubed and parping out content hot and heavy. What a Clownfiesta.

Tomorrow's livestream will be a video of all the programmers trying really hard to get a vertical slice of gameplay out but because Chris is such a perfectionist they had to show nothing. Wait, this sounds familiar...
