shrach posted:Question for people who still think there's some gotcha in the engine swap and Crytek have a good case relating to it. Brilliant summary of the issue with the information we have available. It hinges on amazon being able to provide the 3.7 cry engine to CIG. I know that they were on hard times but having Amazon go back to the last of your old clients to pinch them from you with your own product seams like an unbelievably terrible deal. I Inferr the redacted part where they admit they are still using cry engine 3.7 is because there lumberyard contract dosent allow them to admit they are not really using lumberyard. I have to hand it to ortwinning. They got the demo and a cheap engine deal from crytek, without having to promote cry engine. They got discounted AWS servers from lumberyard, without using lumberyard. The only party getting what they really want is CIG. To bad their development skills don't match the legal ones. What I still can't grasp is all the legal desk pounding when a quick phone conference with a couple of pages from the Amazon contract would have sufficed. Like here has to be more to this than pissing up 0.5 million in legal fees when it could have been resolved in an afternoon. I think crytek screwed up as all CIG have to do to make good is throw on a crytek splash screen and release it through the same game client. Untill they have a game and need to use AWS or lumberyard so badly they can't back out of it they have no leverage just a but a bunch of nerds dicking around with space ship models and mocap animation has no consequences to anyone.

So today my free roll pulled one of the rarest ship waifus from the gacha in a lovely f2p game and it's a billion times more real than any of the ships people have pay hundreds of dollars for in SC. She also has cat ears. That's my ship story. God bless.

This is all too much of a shock to me. Of all the underhanded ways that Crytek could get revenge on CIG after the failing lawsuit, stealing the refunds reddit is a 4D chess strategy I didn't think of

# ? Jan 21, 2020 04:37 |

So how the heck am I supposed to get a refund? I've messaged the support team like 6 times since I bought the game and they've just ignored me. Not a single response in two weeks and I'm fairly sure my deadline on getting a refund is fast approaching. Pretty uncool IMO, the refund policy on their website is very clear. If they choose to simply ignore requests then I suppose consumers have no case whatsoever though.

Damnit, this means I now have to actually refer back to my own notes when getting into stupid internet slapfights with people on Reddit.

Sorry not sorry guys. I killed the subreddit. It was getting to be too much work moderating all those loving idiots with their "Star Citizen" this and "Squadron 42" that. So much so that I couldn't even enjoy the board game time I had set aside with friends yesterday. So I decided it had a good run and needed to be put down.

no_recall posted:Either a) he’s a bad IT professional or b) a bad IT professional. Yeah, I wonder what that math is. I am working in IT since 20 years as well, and while I have a small YT base of 7K subs and up to 150 viewers in my streams (the 2 biggest German streamers in my game are around 200-220 for reference) , the money won’t even cover my monthly LTE Internet fee of 200 Euro. I would need 2500 (lol) twitch prime subs and 25K views on every video weekly on YT before even considering making the switch. There is no way I would sleep well knowing my lifestyle, car, paying the rent and hobbys or even my marriage are depending on Internet donations and viewclicks for advertising placements. And don’t you ever miss your routine. I had some health issues months ago and quit my content for 2 months. I still got my salary, 100%, because contracts. But YouTube or twitch ? Haha, nope. My viewrate went down 2000-2500 per video to 1000 and many unfollowed. My buddy had to pause his streaming for 2 weeks and lost 15% of his twitch subscribers. While 15% doesn’t seem much it seriously hurt him and his wallet. It is 2 weeks of lost donations and twitch bits as well. You have to have a serious fundamental base of subs and Patreons to really walk this route. If you are a single in a small flat and few expenses and able to cut your spending because you are playing games 12 hours per day anyway it’s nice money or at least enough and better than their dumb underpaid 9-17 day job. Most streamers I know who quit their job to live the streaming dream are between 25 and 35 years, sometimes live in their parents house and they had salaries way below 2K per month in Germany. TLDR: Maybe Captain Richard had a bad paid Helpdesk job in IT because he you need at least 1500-2500 twitch subs and random donations and YouTube adsense money on top to earn what you earn in IT in my country in a „successful“ career.

Quavers posted:The Rexshilla competition is hotting up! Lol It’s always a good idea to wade into an already overcrowded market and shout “me too!”. Plus a streaming career based on a stagnant 8 year old pre-alpha in a niche genre can only go up up! Just ask Bad News Baron, things are going great for him. I don’t know, I guess maybe if you were deluded enough to think SC will launch with a decent percentage of its promised content sometime before the heat death of the universe; you could imagine that it could bring all of the 35 and up game dads together and be a big hit someday and make you a star. Or maybe he’s just getting some of that sweet sweet Calder cash. colonelwest fucked around with this message at 07:05 on Jan 21, 2020 |

Mr.PayDay posted:TLDR: Like Rex, if he's streaming for CR, that sweet sweet Calders money is where its at. Counterpoint though, CIG can just print JPGs for him to sell off the grey market, 500-700 dollars per sale is pretty sweet and im 100% sure there are fish in the sea for this kinda business.

Sir, you have not had "a long career in IT". I can see that by looking at you. With your definition of time it is fitting that you're playing a game designed by Senior Developers who need a permission slip signed to travel.
