His lips are moving, which means he's lying. He's lying. His lips are moving. How can someone describe a feature in 3.0 that isn't even **implemented** yet? They're basically going to make poo poo up this Friday, in an attempt to placate a bunch of loving lunatics into thinking that in the long term, all their dreams will be realized. ----------------

The only bug-free program is one with zero lines of code. Star Citizen already has more bugs than any game I’ve ever played so how could it be a scam lol wiggle your way out of that one, Goon bitches.

Imagine how much more complex Star Citizen will get when they try to convert it into a game.

Toops posted:I mean, the foundation of Star Citizen is pretty much done. Just need to apply some “Development Philosophies for Writing Bug Free Software” from the undisputed bible of programming perfection: The nearest book I ever read to making error proof code is "Imperfect C++" by Matthew Wilson. It's oriented toward making software for banking operations, spaceflights, or whatever bulletproof systems. So much exception handling, try/catch blocks, exception specifications, on every little line of code you'd normally never even think twice about. Total nightmare. It was so bad that when I read Google's C++ coding guidelines say not to use the exception handling, I was just like, "Yeah, that makes sense."

There is no way you can play  in SQ42. One of the first NPCs you run across in the "rescue mission" is a trussed up woman, who I'm sure will be very thankful for being rescued and offer a reward in your wank pod along with a cooked meal and doing your space laundry.Remember who CIG's customers are.

That video makes me laugh every goddamn time: Roberts pretending like he understands a single line of modern code, when his contributions to Wing Commander's gameplay were essentially pointing at the screen and saying "make it do this" (Steve Beeman and Warren Spector are responsible for it shipping), and on Wing Commanders III and IV he had essentially nothing to do with the actual gameplay, as he was more preoccupied with making his Top Gun in Space movie. Dude understands code like I understand how to perform quintuple bypass surgery.

Lando looks terrified, the rest look disconnected. Swallow hard, gulp air, Lando. Everyone else, stretch back, look around the room, make eye contact with someone off camera. Cover your mouth with your hand. Drink, laugh a little. Everybody make sure to keep nodding in agreement. Wipe your eyes and face with your hand. Drink again, readjust yourselves. Lando, throughout all this, make sure you sound like a 7 year old who's on the verge of tears because your mom is just about to find out you scratched her new car with your bike. Go. Sean Tracy: "That was the best non-answer I've ever heard." Lando: "Pass the buck to Todd." That last exchange is an example of truth being told in an aside.

Is not your creation yours? That doesn't sound right that somebody could take your stuff and profit off it, and they get to keep proceeds because you didn't register.

Scruffpuff posted:Logically I'd expect very little overlap - a VR enthusiast knows how different the requirements are for making a proper VR title, and should know that those dumb immersion animations that are everywhere literally make Star Citizen permanently incompatible with VR. This isn't an issue of tweaking or adjusting it - it needs to be scrapped entirely and started over. Speaking of Subnautica: They just disabled a lot of the 'immersion animations' in VR and it works well. What are the chances croberts removes immersion animations in SC?

Because as far as I know, registering a copyright under US law is little more than a formality. In fact, there are benefits in not registering, especially if you have pre-existing trademarks or related copyrights. For example, "Harry Potter" can be trademarked by J.K. It isn't necessary to then proceed to copyright every single book which contains "Harry Potter". It can get very complicated, so of course you should consult a IP Lawyer.

Streetroller posted:Until the engine is finished (hahaha), you can't even begin to layout a playable game from a tech standpoint. While this seems logical, imo it's precisely this approach that's driven Star Citizen's failure beyond anything else. In practice, you need to be really clear about what your gameplay is supposed to be, then design gameplay systems to support that idea, then build the tech to support those systems. If you build tech without knowing what it's for, you end up with bloated, vague gameplay systems that don't work together in any coherent way. You end up with Star Citizen.

Didn't you hear? He spends his evenings ghost refactoring everyone's code after they gone to bed, getting the precious few hours of sleep that the Code Whisperer allows them.
