That water thing is loving hilarious, Water kills you because 1) Star Citizen accurately simulates all known substances and since it knows the water is toxic, you die 2) poo poo's all gently caress up yo You'd be surprised which one most Citizens believe

Cat <3 I personally am looking forward to all the drama in the sexy Area 69. This is reported to be a hotbed of scum and villainy. Area 88 had its own... unique issues and attracts a lot of people who just happen to be born in 1988 and definitely nothing more devious than that. It just happens to work out that way somehow!

If Elite gets base building it's gonna be poo poo, that's preordained. Not because FD is bad (they are) but because base building is a lovely pipe dream mechanic that never actually adds anything to an MMO, and even less to something that is barely an MMO like Elite. Think about how it would have to be implemented. One huge problem is making any player-owned base interesting enough to hold someone's attention after the initial "Whoaaaa this is coooool" moment. WoW ran into this with garrisons in WoD, and it turns out they were total dogshit, because it's really really hard to make a town or quest hub interesting enough to be worth continually exploring. When was the last time you actually walked around a video game town and checked it out for a third or fourth time? GTA V is the only game that really bucks that trend, but Los Santos kind of is the game there, and for as large and immersive it is, it's just the one city. One way to get around this is to do fully player-created cities like Shroud or uhhhh SWG? But the problem there is that you inevitably end up with some dude recreating the Basketball Hall of Fame or whatever, and after a couple months even he's not going to give a poo poo about it. Base-building and space legs are both things people want because ImMeRsIoN but they're really really hard to do right. Space legs is a little easier - give each ship a mildly customizable interior so dorks can pretend to be Han Solo playing chess or whatever, and give each station a couple common rooms - but you have to make sure you don't fall into the trap of letting players walk everywhere inside the station, because there's no loving way to make it interesting enough to be worth it.

colonelwest posted:Lol, citizens will go ape poo poo when ED gets space legs. Not that it will really add anything to the game, it’s still going to be a boring space truck simulator, it will just be fun to see them twist themselves in knots trying to say why Star Citizen is still better. There's a good chance Frontier isn't going to model out the bathrooms for each ship and make them an interactive fetishized experience. So automatic failure and why SC is awesome in every way.

Counterpoint: Subnautica, where base-building keeps you alive and is the foundation that progressively unlocks and enables the rest of the game. Elite will not be this. Edit: Subnautica is not an MMO, which I missed being the point because I did not read your post carefully. Base building in any MMO or MMO-like is invariably hot poo poo for a variety of reasons, so we agree. Scruffpuff fucked around with this message at 15:44 on May 23, 2019 |

All of this, plus any specialized game mechanics around bases amounts to developer effort that could otherwise be allocated elsewhere. It’s almost always a trap.

Flared Basic Bitch posted:All of this, plus any specialized game mechanics around bases amounts to developer effort that could otherwise be allocated elsewhere. It’s almost always a trap. A super point. It's not that I avoid base-building mechanics, but since I nearly never engage in them, I am wary of games that include them, because I know that means some other part of the game suffered for it. No Man's Sky comes up again as my example. There's so much potential in that game, but simple quality of life features are missing (WHY exactly can't you transfer my existing spaceship cargo from my old to my new ship that has MORE room? That's why I bought the loving thing.) while they add a new space plant or twenty.

Literally the first Google result posted:So when you open the tab of a new ship that you wish to claim, choose the "compare" option. When you do this, it will allow you to transfer items from your current ship to the new one (Technology not included). Transfer all the items you want, and then buy the ship! Hope this helped God I suck.

The oddest gadgets can have so much significance. There was a controller from the 90s called the "MindDrive" that was supposed to read brainwave signals and translate them into onscreen actions. Due to general tech ignorance a number of people really bought into the idea. All it actually did was translate tiny electrical impulses from your skin and send them to the PC and "translate" those into movement, so your character just sort of jittered around spasmodically. What I'm saying here is that Star Citizen's development really goes back to the 90s.

The oddest gadgets can have so much significance. Honestly I think it coulda worked, it just hit at exactly the wrong time IMO. When you look at the pitch, a inexpensive dedicated android gaming box geared towards indie games, on the surface it seemed plausible. However while the Ouya was finalizing, Android sticks and TV boxes were just hitting their stride. By the time it came out you could grab something off of Aliexpress cheaper and sometimes with better hardware (you definitely can now). Add to that Ouya's failure to get exclusive (or even compelling) games and the mediocre controller, it basically made it dead on launch. About the only thing it did competently was being a emulation box, but any of those Aliexpress specials could do that too. Still I would pick one up for or so if I saw one, just because I could use it as a cheapo emulator box.
