It's always easy to spot an alt Derek account. All you have to do is ask them what they think an escape key should do in a space game. Edit - dam, in bed on phone about to goto sleep, anybody able to spot me a dream catte?

Yes Commando's, send as much mail to the judge as you can. Let her know just how good of an armchair lawyer you are and why CryTek is wrong and CiG is right and good. As a bonus, ensure to maintain your normal amount of smugness and give the judge some nice threatening undertones to really get her thinking about this case.

Mark the envelope ‘amicus curae for the cig thing’.

A company that makes game engines from scratch wants to steal the monstrous spaghetti code that CIG has shoe horned into that same engine over the course of half a decade with hilarious results. They will get away with this by moving to China. #thingscitizensactuallybelieve

colonelwest posted:It's all good for Star Citizen though, because each of those planets is more detailed than in the original pitch and will have more content than an entire AAA game. "See that crater? You can fit all of Skyrim in that crater." That quote still loving demolishes me. Chris Roberts, Visionary, doesn't understand the difference between "content" and "size." That's like taking someone to the Sahara Desert, pointing to a giant swath of loving deadly nothing, and saying "You can fit, like, 100 Disney Worlds, right there."

China, being largely founded on the works of Marx, has a 'thing' about fraud by companies. Frequently the harshest sentences are levied against those that engage in outright fraud, and to operate a company in China, it has to be half-owned by the state, which means they get minute-by-minute accounting. They're also a bit fast and loose with the concept of ownership because their half of the business relationship has tanks. The west has engaged in a delicate dance for years, but now we're into the shouting and stomping phases of a new emergent world power. If you were going to gently caress off anywhere (That didn't have the laissez-faire of Eastern Europe), it would be Turkey. But there really is no need. I mean, the real technical coup is in the object bind tech culling streaming container tech, and they haven't actually completed that yet. Most of their time and energy appeared to be spent on bullshots, videos and lore.

It also irked me because of the obvious bragging intent behind the comment. The implication was that he created a universe within which a fully functioning Skyrim game was an infinitesimal speck, with infinitely more content to be discovered. Basically just another one of his constant swipes at real game developers. "Maybe Rockstar could match us - maybe." Except this time he basically said that Bethesda's years of effort created something he effortlessly dwarfed billions of times over. Pointing out that the space on a procedural planet is "big enough" to hold something is analogous to opening up an empty map editor and bragging about how much game you can fit into it. Of course you can, you moron, now do it.

"Sure the crater which fits 3 Skyrims is empty - but isn't just staring at nothing what people do IRL when they go and see nature? Now I can fire up my computer, hop into my chariot and land on an alien world. There, I can see landscapes and terrain you couldn't even come close to enjoying on Earth. The content is there for those of us with the class to see it. Checkmate Goonie."

These guys are like one step removed from drawing stick figure fights on their notebooks in third grade. Of course it doesn't help that when he finally finds a guy to shoot at the game freezes and goes into massive stutters lol.

Even Crytech wouldn't try to make a MMO with cryengine.

The cringe at 4:03 when he says, "These last three shots gotta count!" is just off the scale. Who the hell talks like the hero from an 80's cartoon when they're playing a computer game? I've played some intense games of League of Legends with friends but no-one says, "I've only got one shot...", or "If I can just pull this off...". Beyond cheese.

The stuff I took causes serious long-term brain damage. I can link you to the peer reviewed journal articles that explain this if you'd like. This is off topic and I don't want to discuss it, but I don't want anyone who stumbles onto this thread to get the wrong idea. Dimenhydrinate is serious business, kids.

This is one of those fan series made to try and impart some kind - any kind - of life into the universe. It's machinima, he and the guy he's shooting at are "acting," which makes it somehow even worse. I'll admit I laughed at the bad guy just teleporting behind the main dude. Nothin personnel, kid

Jobbo_Fett posted:YEAH BUT CAN YOU FIT ELITE:DANGEROUS IN THERE I DIDN'T THINK SO *rips shirt off and slaps titties* You can fit the entirety of ED's life cycle into Star Citizen's alpha. https://steamcharts.com/app/359320 The game has literally been out for 3.5 years, released a full expansion DLC, and is now in a contraction phase, showing a steep decline in userbase due to poor development decisions and a lack of any real engaging multiplayer gameplay. It was still the best space exploration/trading sim of the last decade, and the best VR experience ever. I'm really really looking forward to the Citizen hot takes when they finally twig to the fact that ED is slowing down. It's going to be wall to wall "Guess you coudn't keep up, huh Frontier? Shows you for trying to Steal The Vision!"
