The video from a little while back, of the guy responsible for building their internal servers, made it seem like everything is pretty slapdash. They had a full content leak because Lando accidentally showed a url.

In terms of space games that actually exist, what are opinions on the following: Everspace (I thought I'd read positive reviews in this thread) COD: Infinite Warfare (seems to be positive opinions over the last few pages, on the understanding that it is still a sci-fi themed COD).

What the hell is going on over there? apparently hes hitting the 'random encounter' feature but it gives him the exact same 'random' encounter over and over, which happens to be some asteroids. the exact same asteroids. i'm always shocked by how nightmarishly cluttered the hud and the cockpit views are in this game. real life military vehicles are getting closer to using outside mounted cameras to let the pilot see through the plane itself, meanwhile in the year 3000 people are trapped in a loving lobster pot with an excel spreadsheet being projected into their eyes

juggalo baby coffin posted:apparently hes hitting the 'random encounter' feature but it gives him the exact same 'random' encounter over and over, which happens to be some asteroids. the exact same asteroids. Okay, and they didn't set any boundaries for encounter spawns, and the spawns are persistent for everyone throughout the server. I guess this explains the asteroids all over Port Olisar. It's like they tried to do Elite's unknown signal encounters without understanding that dropping out of supercruise puts the player in their own instance. There's no drat way you can have an mmo where one person's random spawns are visible and persistent. That's guaranteed memory overload.

The equitable remedies clause is pretty meaningless because equitable remedies basically amounts to a judge having leeway to do whatever seems fair by weighing the interests of both sides. Which were available even without the clause. CIG can say they don’t have to show any impending harm, but good luck convincing a judge that something is unfair with no interests on your side of the scale. So it’s like the no-refunds clause. It’s something written to scare people off, not to survive actual litigation. I’m more interested in this part: “This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California and the United States without regard to its conflicts of laws rules and you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in Los Angeles County, California.” So they’re abandoned the arbitration clause that I thought they used to have, and they’re insisting on being sued in open court in a consumer-friendly jurisdiction? An interesting choice.

What part of the TOS says you can't exercise your first amendment rights? The injunction clause is only in play if you break another term of service, if I read it correctly.

If you're doing it tonight, I might wander by your stream and say things to you. It all depends on if I get through my backlog of watching youtubes of kids reacting to things, and idiots reviewing terrible movies.

Sat through the entire hour of the SQ42 gameplay stream for science. An absolute clunky mess of total poo poo from start to loving finish. I hope everyone who worked on it is thoroughly ashamed. Total loving bollocks. The stupid bobbly helmet hud, no fluidity in the player movement, hard janks cutting between playable moments and cutscenes, endless corridors, crap flight mechanics, a needlessly dull flight down to the planet, REALLY BAD DIALOGUE, stupid grabby hands that you can't even see what you're doing, that stupid fiddly pop-up menu to do anything... The inner thoughts being read aloud, it's just so weird and unsettling and it's the kind of thing you'd expect in an arty, experimental indie game dealing with mental illness. That's how bad it is. All player movement and interaction looks fiddly and awkward and annoying, what in the gently caress was that combat bit about, all of a sudden it looks like a 90s game that's been reskinned with hd textures. The stealth kill, gently caress me. CIG have taken all of these backers for a ride and are taking the piss showing that rubbish. And there's supposed to be 18 hours of that poo poo?!

ewe2 posted:You say that like it's a bad thing Normally, when you start off a discussion with a subject, it being an analogy in this case, you double check yourself at the end to make sure you didn't completely lose the foundation of where you started. Losing the foundation of where you started pretty much defines this entire project.

The bit on p 3268 is an End User License Agreement, which is probably different from a Terms of Service in some subtle but (legally) meaningful way, since the EULA is for the game itself, but the ToS covers use of the website and associated services (and maybe the game too?).

You see, Star Citizen is a bit like a car, you buy the car but hey, it only has three wheels! So you ask the salesman and he says 'The other wheel in in production, it will be awesome when it's done'. Then of course, the car has no windows, eh! You ask the salesman and he says he'll go find out about the windows. Elite Dangerous is pretty barebones OH LOOK A DUCK waaayyyy ehh, this keyboard is cool, it has RGB lights on it oh poo poo my pizza

ewe2 posted:"What is truth?" asks Pontius Pilate How the actual gently caress do they describe such a widely recognised term so absolutely incorrectly? Xmas Eve (online) Citizens quiz "What happens when you polish a table?" Is it: A: The act of the legs being fitted to the useable upper surface. B: The act of timber being cut to length to form the various components. C: A final shine is added as a means to beautify the finished product. Helpful Hint, it's not A or B you loving retards.

Lol yeah I was just doing a Citizen bit which is their fallback position to everything including their own stupid BS.  edit:More verbosely it's a great example of how Citizens make lemonade out of lemons. It's almost reflexive by now: when CIG's version of reality is shown to be incorrect, redefine reality so that it not only fits but is superior to all other definitions. They don't even realize they're doing it which is why that analogy disappears when it's no longer needed because now the Citizen feels better about the CIG universe and the bad thing doesn't matter any more. This is exactly the process by which Alpha 3.0 is slowly but surely turning into THE 3.0 which therefore disproves Derek Smart qed.
