You guys have to remember that many of these guys are not actually looking for a game. The just want to belong to something and have some friends. As such, no matter how loving dull and lifeless the actual game is, they'll probably sincerely love it.

Daztek posted:Analytics informs us that the average questing player is making around 1,700 aUEC/day, and the average session of those players is 30-40 minutes. We liked the balance of working for about 3 days to upgrade a piece of gear, based on our own experiences playing MMOs and the rate we'd upgrade. What I mean even if we're being charitable and its only 30-40min x 3 days that's still and hour and half of loving gaming to get a better gun? Who the gently caress are these people, who enjoys gaming like this. Like at the worst I remember 5-8hr WoW sessions for like the best of the best of Mage items, but that was 1 loving item in the entire game (maybe there is more now). And even than I remember thinking 'never again game, never again'

Pixelate posted:I'm still wondering about this EMERGENCY ARGON SUPPLY There is basically no reason you would ever need a supply of Argon. It is completely unreactive, and its main use is in industrial manufacturing processes where it can be pumped into an area to replace oxygen and prevent various chemical reactions. Sometimes it's used in medical grade lasers, and sometimes in industrial fire extinguishers, for basically the same reason.

I mean there can't be more than a handful of citizens who actually read all this poo poo, watch all the videos, keep up with this theorycrafting fever dream.

Pixelate posted:Wait, Daz mocked this up? No, that's from CiG, but the point is that it's not very likely that any of those things are actually _real_, which is why I call it a mockup. That was produced a while back, and they're still talking emitters and consumers. it's one of the reasons I've been interested in doors, because doors define volumes. Errant doors almost entirely fail to define volumes. Same for the lethal door cousin, the ramp. I thought there was another image with a button marked 'Argon supply', but I may be wrong/drunk/Goon.

Agony Aunt posted:You know guys, i'm going to be so sad when this show is over. Whether its down to CIG releasing something awesome (ok, not likely) or it goes tits up. I've been saying the same thing, which is why I kept hoping that CIG wouldn't go under because of the Crytek lawsuit, because 1. It would end all the comedy. 2. It would give Crook Robbers an out in the form of "well, we tried, but Crytek started a witch hunt and ended our awesome development preventing us from making spaceship games great again". This is going to end one day, though, one way or the other, and I propose we keep this subforum alive by (aside from discussing other horrible kickstarting projects) also starting to cover other lovely game development. Like the Takedown: Red Sabre debacle, complete with hilarious video of TotalBiscuit (RIP) praising it pre-release. Like that dude who made Paranautical Activity (out soon on Switch!) who threatened to kill Gabe Newell because Steam failed to acknowledge that his game was out of early access quickly enough or something. Anyway, all that crap is in the past, but endless idiocy is happening every day! Let's pluck the choicest fruit and revel in its stupidity! There's a loving treasure trove out there. Star Citizen is a god drat motherlode, yes, but we'll find something new to sustain us.

Zazz Razzamatazz posted:ITT people arguing about SC gas atmosphere compositions as if that will ever be a thing... Like literally dozens of other features promised over the years, it was not and never will be developed beyond what it took to make that lone screenshot/brief ATV overview. And if I was working at CIG I'd do the same thing—just enough superficial work to mock up a screenie that pleases C-Robbz, only to wait for his ADD to kick in and move onto another nonsensical feature. My personal favorite of those was the "juke system," where he promised unique animations blending between three different movement speeds and eight different directions, taking into account terrain, obstacles, and momentum. He spent twenty minutes raving about how great that would be in ~2015, and it hasn't been mentioned again, AFAIK.
