I love the narrative oh but they are developing new tec so are exempted from time lines. The scope is so crazy no progress is fine. Do researchers have unlimited time and budget ? Or do they have estimates and milestones like every one else ? Sure there are unknowns but you can plan for them. Just because something is big is not an excuse for no progress... Infact by now it should be a reason to see so much more progress not less. How do jump from nothing is done and what's done will all snap together ... Oh they are stopping to show off the progress that's why nothing gets done... DigitalPenny fucked around with this message at 04:16 on Aug 20, 2019 |

Even more fanciful is the line of thinking that calders only own the 10% have power. They own the 10% that matters. They own th money they desperately needed. It's not like owning 5% of apple.

Also guys, I have to warn you i installed rebel galaxy outlaw last night. So from now assume my account has been fully hacked by the Chinese government. To confirm this I saw a Chinese agent today, he was selling noodles but I'm sure the special sauce will delete my steam account and censor my views on global trade.

Con predictions: They will ABSOLUTELY have a Keanu Reeves intro with Mark Hamill, introducing some cut scenes from Squandered 42. Some new partnership with a 3rd party... what could it be... ok go big or go home... some unknown VR headset. A band playing 'the songs of SC' for 3 hours A powerpoint presentation with dates on it A 2 hour jazz exploration of server meshing

Jonny Shiloh posted:That's the joke of it mein Freund - they don't actually have a stand at Gamescom. They're just walking round the show floor handing out bags, holding bar meet ups on the periphery of the show, and who knows, maybe hanging out in the car park with a pop up stand and offering $10 a throw turns on an immobile plastic space bike? I know metric gently caress all about game development, but I do know a few things about conference planning, and the way these motherfuckers SHAMELESSLY suitcase conventions is I wouldn’t sell any of these shits a ticket unless they ponied up for a booth at this point.

actual prediction: a gameplay demo on stage that is obstensibly a SQ42 mission. Chris doesn't play it but dictates what the player should be doing every step of the way. It crashes half way through and shitizens praise CIG for not faking the demo. They restart the demo and its apparent how on rails the entire thing is. It's tedious and not at all exciting. The end of the demo is met with lots of cheering and whooping. Chris is so enamored with himself that they play the demo for a third time. there will be no computers set up for attendees to play it themselves. beta release date is announced along side a sale. Chris turns in to airplane desk and flies off stage.

Looks like the 890-dollar-Jump has been released to Evocatii. No word yet on whether or not they actually got the hangar working. I wouldn't bet on it! The bathrooms certainly appear to be hosed up: Also, apparently, the ship is so big that you literally can't spawn it at Port Olisar. You have to make the 20+ minute flight to Loreville or Area 18 to get it spawned in- hope you bought a second ship! Oh let's be honest, anyone who bought one of these has lots of ships. Also it's so loving big that it's difficult to spawn it, wonkavator down to the landing pad, get in it, and get to the bridge before the despawn timer kicks in. Just really well designed and definitely going to feel great to own one of these going forward.

You wouldn't be able to log-on if you only owned an 890J since the ship isn't packaged with a licence for the actual game.

Also I like that in the roadmap released three days ago this ship was listed as being like 75% complete. Good to know they managed that last 25% and definitely aren't just gonna kick that poo poo out the door, unfinished! The other part of that patch was supposed to be ship rentals. It is nowhere to be seen. It's aaaaaalmost like this is a release of a sketchy half-finished asset because they saw how bad the subreddit rage was getting and panicked. But that couldn't be the case, right?

I haven't checked the reddit but I'm guessing the hardcore defenders are gloating that this is the proof that CIG is secretly ahead of schedule. CIG is vindicated and now the complainers need to shut up.

I hope when Hamill walks out on stage it's through a smoke tunnel like the Cyberpunk demo but the smoke is coming out of vents everywhere and there's a black janitor mopping and Hamill clips through the tunnel, and from the other side of the stage Gary Oldman comes up with his face permanently frozen in this position and then everyone sits down at a cafeteria table with metal plates with 3 sections like a child's hot lunch and they all eat procedural eggs. This is my CitizenCon dream.

Alternatively: Meet the CIG person warmly, ask him if things are doing well for him. Then tell him you've told some projects about him and that they might have an opening soon, to expect something on his personal email, and to keep his CV ready when it happens. And if he protests, glance casually at his posse and say "Oh, right, say no more." And do the most exaggerated semi-obnoxious "WINK", and walk away.

Con prediction: In order to hype the multiplayer gameplay in Squadron 42, they’ll feature a “live” demo featuring superstar streamer Rexzilla and his derp forces. The match will be sterile as gently caress but will feature at least one capital ship, that stupid new rocket launcher land chariot, and a new I got a real good feeling about this one.

Yeah, I am sure the big ship they have been focusing on for the last 3 months is not going to go on sale. Also: Evocati: CIG, release the ship! CIG: Your wish is my command, thank you for giving us the green light.

shrach posted:As usual they haven't quite thought critically about their data comparisons. They talk about how Star Citizen "only" has 500 people working on it and that Rockstar had 2000 developers and another 1000 outside contractors during its dev cycle on RDR2 so they don't have the same resources. Star Citizen is a little indie company. The other issue is the implication that Rockstar had hundreds of devs working on RDR2 for its entire dev cycle. Games can stay in pre-production for a long time with very few developers - just look at that Anthem post-mortem. Whereas CIG inflated to hundreds just in its second / third year. They've had 500+ employees for a while now.
