Even Natalie Portman looks bad when working with a bad director like George Lucas. Ipso facto, Sandi's skills are on par with Natalie Portman's. I know. Watching her work, for a moment I truly believed that she really was tied to a table being tickled by a large masked weirdo. Now that's acting.

G0RF posted:At this point, frustrations with all of CIG’s stupid, unforced marketing errors has turned her into the preferred heat sink. Even the latest Paywallgate thing got pinned on her, though Chris was the man with the plan. So maybe the little potshots are how Citizenry takes it out. Unfairly credited, unfairly maligned, reaping the profits but paying the price for a fiction of her relevance. The king has bad advisers.

G0RF posted:Of all the things to ding Sandi about, that teeth would ever get a mention is just so out of left field. I’ve watched so many CIG videos, but it just never registered. It’s the flip side of citizens talking about “dat rear end” or whatever — just so awkward and irrelevant. Montoya makes cringey jokes. It does get a laugh from me sometimes, sheerly for how wince-including it is. Yay pretentious movie!

Hey, don't forget that even if they get OCS in the upcoming 3.3, it'll be a tier-zero implementation of OCS. But don't worry folks, the real OCS will come later, but will address all the framerate issues. Star Citizen will run on a laptop with 8 GB of ram at 60 fps in 4K. Promised.

One branch will be an empty husk with few of the promises made, if any, a jury-rigged pile of code that does nothing. The other will be the same but also lacking OCS

I want the version with the farming module and ship. I'm really excited to get farming in deep space. I think that milking cows in zero g, effectively making them space whales, will be awesome. And the milk will shoot out of the udders but only go so far until it stops because it's not on the ground. I plan to do intricate zero g space milk art, and I'm going to be sad if this edition doesn't allow that. I've been waiting years for it!!!

Is they have a test group not using OCS, it must be because OCS is so awesome they want to show people how bad the game is without it, right? Right?! I'm interrobanging here, people!

We now have our answer to the question asked after last Friday’s RTV. G0RF posted:Quick thread poll: If the version without OCS is basically 3.2+ — a more stable build without Hurston and other bodies but maybe with FOIP and stuff — then Chris isn’t just building a universe anymore. He’s building a multiverse. It really begs the question whether they’ll settle on a single version of 3.3 for CitCon, or whether they’ll keep two branches alive so they have one they can market. That’s far too pragmatic a plan for Chris to come up with but I can see what a guy like Papy would want it. Very interesting.

exhilarating! ! ! ! this twitter and marketing poo poo is sooo far away from the original pitch. lets compare this to a tv show...i loved deep space nine ok. dont know what you think about it but well the universe is all about me so deep space nine is cool. imagine if there was not a single episode of ds9. just ALL the marketing around! how ridiculous would that be?? “TODAY we will talk to a writer who will do an episode about a shapeshifter who will fall in love with a female bajoran resistance fighter. it will be HEARTBREAKING.“ “you can buy the whole season IN ADVANCE. we promise it will be the best show you ever watched. you will never want to watch anything else!“ this is ridiculous beyond believe. and this is also why some niche crowd (goons+believers) enjoy this poo poo

But seriously - imagine looking at a game 200 million and 7 years in and getting videos about prototyping base mechanics that were promised 7 years ago and thinking that's totally on the level and not at all a sign that everything is completely hosed The mental gymnastics people will do to defend something they're obsessed with believing to be true is fascinating

Object Container Streaming is some magic piece of space code that will make the game run smoother and more seamlessly, even/especially if large numbers of players are around. Even if it was a thing that existed it's a gameplay improvement and not something you can put a price tag on, so it's on the back of the back burner.

You can say that about a lot of the features they're working on. "OCS" is a fundamental feature of any MMORPG engine. Same with whatever they call their network bandwidth / interest management feature

iospace posted:What is OCS again? Currently Chris Roberts’ “universe” of “hundreds of Star Systems” is limited to 3 moons, 1 planetoid, and a gas giant you can’t interact with in any way.  3.3 is supposed to see the addition of Hurston and its moons. Yet Hurston is much larger than anything else previously released and includes their first city (Lorville). OCS is magic tech to facilitate this scale expansion (from 25% of their first star system to over 50%.) Up until last Friday, “Object Container Streaming” was described as a single piece of magic tech. But Friday saw its bifurcation into Client side OCS and Server side OCS. The former is nearing completion but the latter may still be far away, and the full magic tech benefits will not be enjoyed until both are in place and yet more magic tech (server meshing) makes it all work perfectly. Imagine seeing 1000 player space ship battles taking place over a city teeming with NPC life, every one living distinct lives. Now imagine 1000 planets like that. Imagine!

space-X-chicken posted:sandi creeps me out. im very sensitive always been. i have a knack for reading the tiniest facial expressions and body language. it never failed me. she creeps me out. I agree with this and I have the same read of her. I try not to overdo the making fun of her with reference to physical features - she's enough of a ghoul through her behavior alone. But Sandi strikes me as a very hungry alien who's spent her whole life eating humans alive, and now she's got some kind of disguise on and she's been ordered NOT to eat us, and she's having a lot of trouble controlling the impulse. The tiny hand movements, the darting, dead eyes, the hungry look, how she looks through people as well as at them, the very rapid subconscious changing of facial expressions as if she's rapid-cycling emotions - I can't pin it down to just one thing. I can't imagine being in the same room with her. It has to be uncomfortable as all gently caress. The pic of Gillian Anderson trapped next to her is a good example of how I think I'd feel - Gillian's facial expression screams "help me."

Doesn't the game actually run well if you put it into an offline mode? Doesn't seem like client side ocs would be that significant if that is the case.
