The best way I described it was 99.9% orchestra tuning up noises, and 0.1% cheesy dramatic sting. The problem is most people don't know much about music theory because it's pretty boring if you have no interest, so to most people it'll sound good enough. To someone who obsesses over whether someone has correctly performed the intricate pauses during Chopan's Raindrops (like me) it's auditory torture.

On the note of the music I felt like someone had basically opened up the rainymood website and just let it ran for about twenty minutes during that slow rear end walk through the asteroids.

Sarsapariller posted:It mostly depends on what people are up to on your server. If they just do quiet cargo runs you'll be fine, but as soon as they start spawning NPCs there is no limit to how low your FPS can be. NPCs don't even seem to despawn, so that makes everything worse. So, if I understand ths correctly, the framerate could go SO LOW that it starts hitting negatives and taking frames back from my PC? Wouldn’t that create some sort cosmic blackhole type event localized entirely in my computer room?

happyhippy posted:I love the CoD IW storyline, I have had a soft spot for anything futuristic war style. Yeah me too, and as it's COD it's likely short enough for me to actually play through and complete. (The only games I've completed in the last 10 years are Halos, Mass Effects, and Witcher 2. Just Witcher 2, not Witcher 1 or 3.) I'll pick it up on console, post-christmas carnage I think because yes I am a console peasant, and yes thanks to Total Warhamm's needing both 1 & 2 installed for Mortal Empires mode I have no real space

Spiderdrake posted:It feels like anyone in the industry in all honesty should avoid it. There's a bit of a bubble that extends to here, but outside of the bubble I do not encounter many gamers who have even heard of star citizen. It's a niche product with already better versions of the product dominating that niche. Inside the bubble, there's a pretty slim number of viewers and shills, all of which make for rather repulsive discussions. There's no money in it, all the money is going to CIG, so you get lovely comments on youtube and nothing else. Well, his whole shtick is that he speaks about abusive practices in game development, and he's well-aware of star citizen, so I have always wondered why has he decided to ignore this particular piece of abusive-as-hell project.

There's nothing wrong with it, but despite having spaceships you can fly in it it isn't super exciting or memorable. I'd sooner play the Titanfall 2 campaign again than return to it, and I've played that about three times already.

Is it just me or was even the audio in that SQ42 demo loving terrible? It was all over the place. And why are they using lightning sound like all the time in the background. Not even when they flew into the weird space lightning bit, I mean just on the big carrier at the beginning there was loads of lightning noise. And the score was so heavy and overblown the whole goddamn time, even when they were just flying along in a straight line for 3 minutes it would build up as if some epic thing was happening on screen... But it wasn't. Also also, where are all the black people and women. It's 900 years in the future and all flight deck crew and navy pilots are exclusively white men. e: wait from that clip from a few pages back, there is more diversity in loving Call of Duty than in this game 0_0 e2: my favourite bit in the demo was when they spent 2 minutes zooming in on flight deck crew before the player was about to take off. You couldn't see the crew because of the terrible lighting, meaning that all those animations they spent so much time making and then making a film about how they made them, were not seen. Except those that were, were absolute garbage.

The best part about launching this turd out is that sure, there are probably a handful of folks working in order to hit the "reset" button during Christmas on the cloud to keep 3 FPS going for the faithful during the holidays. But to somewhat actually fix anything of substance will start to occur after the entire next week. Several of the faithful question the methodology behind such a decision. The explanation from the faithful is no one was playing 2.6.3 so what difference does it make? The main problem right now with this dumpster fire is there is so so much to laugh at. The absurdity of it all is overwhelming everyone from different perspectives. Hell strapping a Pinto gas tank to a Chevy Corvair and have it ram into an Amtrak train seems subtle compared this debacle of a release. And yet the funding chart exploded.

You can always tell tokenism, because there will be mostly white men with a few white ladies and even fewer black dudes, but absolutely zero black ladies. Why use two diversity chips on one character? seems to be the thinking. Not even going to talk about Asian (East or South) non-representation in SC, because maybe some of those poorly rendered smeary orangish people are supposed to be Asian and not white, idk.
