In the lycra clad cycling community, we call people that spend way too much money on very expensive over specced carbon fibre time trial bikes that they never use.. dentists.

I think tomorrow will be interesting, and I think CIG will go all out. It is just me or does it seem that CIG is desperate for coverage? They seem to have reached out more in the past 2 months. From having an 890 article out on Newsweek, of all places, and two days ago where there was that weird tweet with joker in a hashtag. Is it because they found out that their whales are spending less and now looking for new blood, even outside of the gaming target market?

Tippis posted:No. They want to over-engineer a solution to a problem that shouldn't be there to begin with and wouldn't be there had they not tried to over-do it from the get-go. CIG's handling of the camera is a bit like if they had tried to bake a cake, but... - added a mildly pleasant tasting poison to it, then - added an antidote to neutralize the poison but the antidote tastes terrible. - Now, they are trying to work around the awful taste instead of making a cake without the poison and antidote in the first place

Ambaire posted:The space game I dream of incorporates all the best parts of Factorio, Satisfactory, Elite Dangerous, No Man's Sky, and Kerbal Space Program. I'm not entirely sure how it would all mesh together but it would be awesome. Sadly, it will most likely forever languish in my most feverish dreams. From your posts it seems their is a running adventure and "the unknown" theme to what you want in games. None of them have it. No Man's Sky is cool and good but ultimately hollow. https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3897460 Fellow goon and totured-by-chucklefuck Rho'n'company is making a game that is supposed to be starbound but not poo poo. Yes it is 2D, but that allows for easier content generation and usually leads to more depth as things tend to be easier to implement than 3D realism (whatever the gently caress that means). Ultimately that frontier exploration isn't something games can do. It requires a plethora of new interconnected things, but different from what you've ever seen before (and relevant and meaningful). That just can't be done. Ambaire posted:Also my replies in this thread are due to my general tiredness of life on this planet and constant dreaming of something more .. sci-fi. I was in graduate school for physics in ultra-fast lasers (and associated material stuff). It didn't work out. I ended up homeless, without ID, without food, and miserable. I found trying to confront and deal with life issues instead of escaping from them tends to be the better and more effective option. Yes that may be effectively impossible for you but still try. Games can't meet or solve needs like dreams. Making them maybe, but not playing them.

 Okay, Citizens, rise and shine, and don't forget your wallets 'cause it's cooooold out there today. It's coooold out there every day. What is this, Pacific Palisades? Not hardly. And you know, you can expect hazardous ramps later today with that, you know, that, uh, that Blizzard thing. That Blizzard - thing. That Blizzard - thing. Oh, well, here's the report! The Judge Dolly Gee Jury Service is calling for a "big Blizzard thing!" Yessss, they are. But you know, there's another reason why today is especially exciting. Especially cold! Especially cold, okay, but the big question on everybody's lips... On their janked lips... On their janked lips, right: Do ya think Chris is gonna come out and see a release date? Handwavey Chris! That's right, jpeg-pledgers - it's... CITIZENCON DAY!

Apparently they try to corner the Razer market for LEDs on everything, with seethrough cases and rainbow LED fans in PCs. So yeah, style over substance, a perfect fit for Star Citizen.

CIG pissed off AMD severely in the past, but it's been so long that the people involved have probably moved onto other jobs by now so they're free to try again. ^^^^^^ Oh that's actually it? Hahaha Spatial fucked around with this message at 15:44 on Nov 22, 2019 |

The interview is also funny:  I assume given it's a satellite, it'll have lots of sensing equipment in it, which ship would you most closely associate it with from Star Citizen? The Carrack perhaps as an explorer? Given its smaller size and specific mission, I think I'd most closely associate it with the Terrapin! It's designed to hide out quietly in space, slipping "under the radar", and its main mission is to track other vehicles and relay that data back to command
