Hav posted:Crowdfunding. As long as they don’t call it a subscription, they’ll be fine. Crowdfunding requires them to keep releasing ships. Nobody will keep spending on crowdfunding without the JPGs to drive it. See previous conversation about how they won't be able to afford to maintain development.

Sabreseven posted:The easiest answer to any questions regarding ship sales and pricing after release is: Here is a question that I've been thinking about. How many concurrent 50 man instances actually exist currently? From the few times I've played its almost always the same players so not sure if I am keyed to one server or there just aren't that many players.

monkeytek posted:Here is a question that I've been thinking about. There was a graph somewhere that showed the concurrant users for all game modes over the course of a year, someone in the thread probably knows where it is found but from my own memory the numbers were stupidly low to the point where around 50 seperate instances would be massive overkill. Hopefully someone will dig it out as it would definitely be interesting.

AntherUslessPoster posted:I know at least ten people personally who in case of proper game release and delivery of at least half of the promised features and functions will throw monies at CIG, buying at least two carriers and quite some ships. But CIG also said they will stop selling ships for real money when they release the game. But i'm pretty sure they will use the "what is release anyway?" BS to avoid doing a hard release, therefore continue to sell ships.

Spiderdrake posted:The part where you say stuff like this makes me wonder if you've suffered, like, multiple concussions. You've been reading this thread for years. Why do you think that's possible? At all? Well, i am pretty convinced something will get "released" eventually. And on that day, CIG will hail their broken partially completed game as the best drat space sim ever and the backers will do victory laps and buy more JPGs, while the rest of the world shakes their heads and gets on with playing quality games.

If a thing called release ever happens, be it an MVP or otherwise, I'm absolutely sure the following will be true: - they will continue selling ships for $$$, they can say it's too fund the ongoing development. what is release anyways? - they will sell game currency. Likely there's will be a very high cap so that whales can still whale but ci!g keep their promise that technically there's a limit. - there will be seen optionally subscription, but everything worthwhile will be paywalled. Effectively making it a required subscription. - there will be a cash shop with many p2win doodads. - still no BMM - chris wears black

Whenever I see that pic (or the original pic from CIG), it baffles me that they put a character in t-pose in there. Either leave it out, or place her so the t-pose isn't visible. It's so incredibly lazy. e: I forgot, originally that was a video, where the t-pose was even more cringy

It's not the "typical" T-Pose, but take a closer look at the dark haired lady sitting at the right of the table, at the front. The model doesn't seem to be rigged yet, so she's in 50% t-pose and is simply rotated around the z-axis, with stiff arms. Also clips right into Hamill's knee. e: I also never realized what's going with the neck of the lady two seats behind her...oh my god.... tuo fucked around with this message at 12:25 on Dec 20, 2019 |

What? It's just project/task management software, that's not that hard if you're not the admin of it. This position seems to be managing and operating the coffee bar, not just serving coffee, so I could see that being necessary.

I've worked with companies bringing in 5x more than CIG a year and none of them had a loving barista they had free snacks / lunches / drinks (including alcohol) and whatever, but hiring a FTE to serve espresso is such a "look at me, look at me" move it always makes me laugh maybe I don't understand break time development

But, Brits are a tough bunch and will do what we do best, a cup of tea with a nice chocolate digestive to dunk and a strongly worded letter followed by the usual afternoon gathering around the piano and everything will get sorted.
