It's been pushed back and Roberts ran late because he missed the train. it's not his fault - CIG is doing things that no one else has tried before. what other game studios are releasing games where you have to check transit maps to make sure you transfer to the correct trains?

Yep there are at least 2 more companies in the roster previously not mentioned Cloud inperium rights LLC And Cloud imperium rights Ltd I've mentioned it before but they always seem to find a way to have chris not appear as a director across all these companies. More shady poo poo https://i.imgur.com/OhQW9vX.jpg https://i.imgur.com/CnUvWjL.jpg Same Chris, director of two different companies. But as far as companies house search is concerned it's two different Chris Roberts' One listed the address including Cheshire, the other excludes it And then British American or British-american On purpose or just sloppy form fillers ?

The loving train gameplay was so long and dreadful I'm just blown away they didn't warp you to your destination instead of forcing you to stare out the window or wait for the next train

EvilMerlin posted:I highly recommend reading: Well I'm wildly behind thanks to the thread exploding again, but gently caress it. The Luftwaffe in WW2 were probably the most sadistic of the Nazis. But gently caress it, your Ace there? was highest scoring because he couldn't be retired. The Allied nations pulled pilots off of the line to train other pilots for a reason. Hell though, with enough reports it's become known that the Germans liked to attribute kills from the squadron to the leader for propaganda, that all air crews tended to bullshit their kills on all sides and ironically, not always in the same direction. Some American pilots in the pacific lowered their kill count so they could stay in theater. I'm going to guess none of your books go over them using civilians as target practice, unarmed villages as bombing practice or any of their more 'renowned' leaders though. You want to look up an interesting German of the time, go with Wilhelm Canaris. I just wanted to shitpost in familiar territory, loving with wehraboos is a hobby at this point.

DCS sells premium planes. 90 bucks right now gets you a 1:1 recreation of the F/A-18, Su-34, and a giant desert map to gently caress around it. IL-2:BoX sells premium planes and modules. For like 20 to 25 bucks a pop, that are 1:1 recreations of WW2 aircraft. Something a lot harder and arguably a lot more valuable than fake space warships/battleships/fighters. Like you zip around in the F-5E Tiger 2 in DCS World and you can look around, see the armaments rattle on the wing, and struggle to get comfortable with the controls. It's selling you reality, something far harder than a Space WW2 game. And they want you to pay HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS for something a thousand times less fidelitous than recreating an actual, real plane. It's just loving mind boggling.

A reminder of how cool the Warframe demo started as at this year's TennoCon and it got even better as it went on, closing with space flight, battle and boarding mechanics. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPTCq3LiZSE One Con is stale, the other one isn't.

Drunk Theory posted:The whales keep them alive at this point anyway. yeah but imo there was always a remote possibility that whales would sustain them to something resembling a decent release (like, idk, destiny 2 quality, so poo poo but not unplayable) with a decent number of ships available in a sane way. that was my faintest hope that the game would be redeemed because me and all my friends would probably buy something like that, but nobody i know will spend more than $60 to make a game playable
