With the kind of hacked together, spaghetti code that this 'game' runs on, they may not find the bug for months. And given the amount of whale tears this will cause.... Maybe I should start a kickstarter to build an ark.

Second largest, german mainstream IT news site Golem covers the lawsuit in an article. 10 comments, 7 are from the SC defense force. Even the new Fujitsu Happy Hacking Keyboard gains more attention there. I slowly get the feeling that the whole SC-"community" is a tiny, very vocal bunch with pretty deep pockets. The remainder of the gaming/IT world, let alone normal people, don't seem to care about it much.

tuo posted:- one was an RTV IIRC many years ago...the live thing they did. IIRC it was Lando and Tyler? It was filmed next to the place where they did the ATVs, and the camera had a look into Sandi's office. Of course nothing strange happened there....Sandi sat at her computer and...worked? But you could see how she suddenly opened up the livestream, realized she's on camera in the background, and then walked (as much out of frame as possible) to them, whispered something to them, and they changed the camera angle. It wasn't a real fuckup, just funny, because you saw other people working at their desks. But Sandi didn't like it. man those were exaggerated

AtlanticWitchTrade posted:My spaceman's cold, but what they spot fills their spaceman-helmeted mind with giddy elation. They laboriously WASDs their unwieldy Cryengine skeleton over to the stock-engine softbody textured to resemble an authentic scifi linen jacket. Only with minor hesitation they activate their signature "shoot arm from stomach" animation that was cobbled by an intern dragging around visual nodes. Success as the two attachment points enter minimum proximity and snap together! My spaceperson shakes their outstretched arm with the space jacket attached to their knuckles as the Game Over screen comes into view. Poetry.

The general public has completely lost all interest in Star Citizen, it is now seen as either a complete scam or an odd novelty. The delusion that once SC releases there will be thousands of players around to work as space janitors on a whale yacht is even more hilarious.

Dooguk posted:Forbes are back...... Nothing new aside from that intense legal shade thrown at them - Crytek says their claim is only actionable once SQ42 is released. Given CIG's track record, that is precisely two weeks/never. Also pragmatic - I'm guessing that Crytek doesn't think they'll be able to get at backer money given that it probably exists in an extremely grey legal area (deliberately so on CIG's part), but any actual sales of SQ42 after release are certainly fair game.

Yeah, and one has to be especially delusional to think that SQ53 (which is probably dead, anyway) will be a success on the scale of GTA V or the latest Call of Duty. But in a way Chris already succeeded, he created the best game ever because it's something different for everyone and lives to 90% in peoples dreams. The remaining 10% that is real might be a buggy mess, but enough to let the dreamers imagine what could be and let them have a hell of a time buying ships and theorycrafting. A SQ53 release would destroy that, so I think the lawsuit is quite good for CRs exit strategy in regards to SQ53.

Popete posted:Like what in the world is so wrong with this game that a fix is to log into an entirely different game mode and lay down in a different ships bed? This is what happens when the code base become a massive spaghetti mess that nobody fully understands. At this point you either scrap the whole thing and start from scratch or resort to the software development equivalent of a cargo-cult ritual to get it to work.

Lmao they won't even find the bug. This is CIG and SC we're talking about. The bug is too fundamental to the mess of code that is the game. Its not a bug in the classic sense. They'll "fix" it by building a whole new system that goes around it, but that'll be just as broken. CIG cannot make video games. They fundamentally lack the knowledge and ability.

Dooguk posted:Forbes are back...... Somebody writes for Forbes who covers videogames other than Paul?? :monocole: (I guess they had to get someone else because he refuses to talk about anything that isn't Destiny) quote:In filings found by redditor RiSC1911, Crytek argues that its claim that Cloud Imperium is in breach of contract is predicated on Squadron 42 existing as a stand-alone game, and that it won’t be actionable until its release. Its a bold strategy to avoid getting sued by simply never releasing a product.

It was mentioned earlier in this thread, but these people really just want to play Second Life. The allure is socializing and having digital luxuries that are out of reach for most IRL. Building Second Life in Space didn't need to cost 300 million dollars.

I think a big chunk of Star Citizen fans also love Ready Player One, so yeah, the idea of the ultimate singularity megagame resonates with them very much. Particularly one where they are the elite class and can push others around.

These people - they're everywhere. It's like running into one of those church people when you're not in a position to retreat - you just clench up and think "Oh gently caress, oh gently caress, one of these, I guess I gotta ride this out" and you grit your teeth and put on that fake patient smile and nod a lot until the storm passes. Except the Star Citizens are patrolling every corner of the internet. I'm waiting for one to show up in the comments section for Cosmopolitan "10 Ways to Please Your Man" and they put in "Why no mention of buying him an Idris?"

Scruffpuff posted:You know, knowing Chris Roberts, I'm extremely surprised that the screen doesn't flip to black and back every few moments, with a vertical wipe, to simulate the natural act of blinking your commando's eyelids. After all, as Chris has shown us repeatedly, he sees things every sane person edits out, like the sides of your helmet or head bob. The cameras are apparently already in the eyeball. In fact, instead of making the screen go black, they should actually animate the lids down over the camera view, that way they're not "cheating" and it's more fidelitious. Didn't some game do a blink mechanic at some point? Seems like a very David Cage/Chris Roberts thing to do.

Agony Aunt posted:I love how CIG started out with a very challenging idea and then proceeded to make their efforts even harder every step of the way. Doing it any other way is cheating. And we know CIG will only resort to that after claiming they don't cheat, get caught cheating, and promptly never bring the topic up again. After making some good "lies-sales" though. It's ok though, the CEO absolves himself of any lots or wrongdoing!

In my amazing post-pocolypse event is like to say I wish I was the fly on the wall when the CryTek guys realized CIG had to release the game before they had something they could bank on a lawsuit better. The many tables that were thrown over that day is probably pretty high. For days. Just some guys coming in, and starting to flip tables where people are working and stuff, raging about deadlines and development practices that CIG can't seem to manage like even a third rate Russian game from some guy named Dimitri and made inside his garage.

Known Issues: Hard exit / Crash to Desktop with a "Thanks for playing Star Citizen!" exit message Possible Solutions: Delete your USER folder. Make sure your IRQs are set correctly and your SoundBlaster 16 is seated properly in the ISA slot. Buy a Freelancer. Was this problem fixed?

You have to spent $1000 to qualify for CInotG to ship it to your home along with a Crobbear cardboard cutout of him sweating and absolving himself. I'm kidding, you can't see him sweating under the bearface fur.
