I can't really be bothered in figuring how how citizens are being mislead this time around but CIG seems to be getting better at it. There are 4 excel sheets because of working on multiple branches simultaneously? lol. I'm with Toops; that is going to work about as well as folding the Hangar module into the PU. lol

its fine. Performance optimization is 55% complete.

Is it normal to develop sequential patches in parallel other than poo poo like DLC/additional content for actual released and fully working software?

I don't understand game development.

Sure it is! You simply look at your feature list, determine which are most critical to your product and customer base, weigh that against the effort involved and the expertise available, throw in a little bit of intuition, and voila! Everyone is working on important features, all pragmatically... ahbwahahahaha!

No, they have a bunch of teams working in separate branches in isolation from one another. Their work has been chosen based on how sexy it will sound to citizens, assuming any work is being done at all. Because of course they are. This is sadly still not so uncommon even in successful game development shops. I’ve been involved in such nonsense more times than I care to remember.

Yes, but this isn't unique to game development either. Usually a roadmap is set up for the product. "We want features X, Y, and Z for version A.B" Once one team finishes up, say the sound team, they can start working on the next patch, because usually they won't have any work unless a bug comes up.

It's why every now and then if a game is buggy, nerds flip their everloving poo poo if say a new map is released before the bugs are fixed, despite the map maker having absolutely nothing to do with the bugs, nor is it in their purview to actually tackle the bugs completely unrelated to the maps.

Sorry, no, that's not normal.

Maybe some old ballsack companies like IBM used to do that way back whenever, but no dev shops I've worked for or heard about ever develop this way any more.

Everyone works on features for the upcoming release.

As a resident old lady, I have to say that the idea that the judge gives a rat's rear end about video games is ridiculous. The number of ladies over 55 in the entire US who would think of themselves as "gamers" could probably fit comfortably in an elevator.

Also, the idea that she would care about BDSSE because her dad worked as an aerospace engineer is insane. My dad was a poet, and I can't be bothered to read a poem unless someone I know wrote it.

There is truth here. There’s guys at work older than I am and they still play WoW fairly religiously and when they get going I immediately zone out and can’t wait for the topic to change.

It’s probably a good thing nobody ever brought up Star Citizen before because then I’d put myself as a clandestine gamer and who knows what they’d do then.

But I don’t have a single girlfriend even remotely interested in gaming or anything related to video games.

I play a few times a month and I think this pretty much makes me a hardcore “gamer”. I’ve actually beaten stuff like FF15 and Horizon Zero Dawn, so yeah I’m totally up there. :)

I can’t imagine the judge, especially female, is going to give a drat at all that the case is about a video game. If anything that’ll just make it more petty and silly in her view.

Maybe shitizens are right. Maybe she watched the stars in her youth with her dad, kept somewhat a passion for it and has a telescope in her balcony as a souvenir ; and now she found a new way to explore the stars with video games, and she's an avid fan of elite dangerous in VR.

The thing is that ladies over 50, in my experience, often enjoy video games but very few would think of themselves as "gamers" even so.

And if she actually likes playing space games, all the more reason for her to have no patience for Star Citizen, because it is bad and not fun.
