JugbandDude posted:I agree the whole negative latency thing sounds like BS marketing, but we gotta admit that Google has certainly innovated more than CI so far. ill be honest, CIG has done some pretty rad poo poo. the technology in SC already existed, but i don't really think it's been brought together in a single game the way it has in SC. ooooooooooooooooooooooon the other hand... gameplay-wise SC sucks massive elephant cock. it's full of bugs. its entire business model revolves around locking [unfinished at best, non-existent at worst] content behind three digit pricetags.

Bofast posted:While it will no doubt be a bit of an economic shock and a rough time for quite a while, I'm not sure how exactly a no deal Brexit would directly cause people to die. From what, stress related heart attacks? That seems a bit alarmist. We're going to run out of drugs, specifically things like insulin. We're already running short because of trade uncertainty and in the event of a no deal there would be no structure in place to allow imports. With food bank usage already at a high we're heading into a recession, we're already in one officially, which would only be exasperated by a no deal. There are plenty of people who are eating every other day because that's all they can afford. Making that worse will cause serious damage to the health of the poorest in society.

MarcusSA posted:Citation needed for this. Yeah if they have, I'm having a hard time remembering it amidst, for example, you become the ship and your avatar gets repositioned in the core of a gas giant, the body horror, the T-posing and ships jittering off wildly into space, fidelitous eggs, drink mixing, clipping through ramps, massive and featureless craters, elevators not working, argon gas levels, poop collecting, hair pipelines after all this time we're not even getting procedural birds

…except that it's not planetscale (everything is scaled down), that it's not galaxies (no matter how you misdefine it), and that other games have indeed done that. FPS is just a camera position, and that does not make it unique or radical in any way.

Don't they have like a miniscule handful of planets that you can land on and they're much smaller than actual planets and in cases like the city planet, large portions of them are unable to be explored or even flown low over?

Midnight Voyager posted:Don't they have like a miniscule handful of planets that you can land on and they're much smaller than actual planets and in cases like the city planet, large portions of them are unable to be explored or even flown low over? Yes. The gameworld is just a jumble of half-made moons that aren't even meant to exist in the same solar system (there is no actual full solar system yet) and everything is scaled down to 1/10th so that travel times only come out to fractions of hours rather than fraction of days… because obviously it would be unrealistic to have faster travel times to go with the smaller planets and 1G-everywhere worlds and artificial gravity and space-Rome and 19th-century-racist-stereotype-aliens. Fun fact: if you want the game the backers are dreaming of, you only need to look at the two games the backers hate the most — NMS and Elite Dangerous.
