jarlywarly posted:Isn't the inherent problem that the types of encounters/fights/time to kill etc need to be very different for an MMO where you can't just respawn in a few seconds than an arena type shooter. So what really are you learning about combat design and balancing etc that you can apply to the MMO? Yeah this is definitely a thing. But it doesn't even matter because they definitely aren't learning poo poo from arena stuff that they could apply to the MMO. The MMO is so far from even being in a point where that would matter. The arena stuff is purely tech demos made to keep the backers happy and drive more pledges / spaceship jpg sales. That's it. Any pretense of it being a "mode" for the final game is utter bullshit.

Der Shovel posted:I am also 100% this is what life at CIG is like, because their scope keeps growing, features keep changing and Croberts has people redoing poo poo for the sixth time. And their hardcore fans endorse every wasteful, dysfunctional bit of it ... as Twerk does in his latest weekly recap. He’s troubled not a bit by Chris micromanaging the fashion concepts for an upcoming landing zone. Why shouldn’t Chris be intimately involved in every fashion design choice of his fantastically late, historically costly, and painfully downsized game — its his VISION!

Everything good was me! Everything bad was totally not me though, some other guy did that. Like yeah I totally knew the Kilrathi puppets were dumb but I told this guy uhhhhh Biff Toberts, I was like "Biff we gotta change these!" but ole Biff was in love with the design, he wouldn't change it, my hands were tied! Its not like I was the director or anything.

He usually begins angry and pissed off, then downgrades himself to disappointed, and finally resolves his acceptance of the chocolate ration being increased from one half to one third by praising all the information that isn't included, because it could be really really good stuff, and we just don't know. In the meltdownapalooza which will inevitably occur when the whole thing has undeniably liquefied before all eyes, my money is on the salty one to put on the best show. We will smell what this Florida Man has really been cooking all along. Just like when daddy's evenrude powered mobile lab caught the youngin's birthday clown on fire. Kerosene and greasepaint. Skin grafts and regret. These are but a few of my favorite things. BG will host a 42 day sob-athon; Nooblins will say "these things happen" in just under 9 seconds; and all the rest will show us pictures of their kids hanging holiday decorations (because when you get right down to it, that's what this project was about all along), or grainy video from the latest pin the tail on the Lesnick Bah Citizen grope. The tears will flow and be delicious and the marginal sucker will have been saved some money which can then be used to kick start daddy's new lab. The circle of life shall begin again.

And this week the faith has been somewhat restored from the little I saw, or at least he's managed to bury reality again and convince himself SOMEHOW that they aren't lying again in the roadmap. In the same stream he seemed to excuse this 'going down with SC' attitude by pointing out he doesn't need his twitch streaming income, having a real job, unlike *cough*Saurus*cough* certain other SC streamers. Some of the other stuff he said actually made me sad for him, could have gone back to school but decided to stick with SC ... I actually hope the guy gets the gently caress out.

I might not understand romance development... I might also not be the best marketer in the world. These valenties day sale / competitions are hosed up. It's just reeks of desperate random latching onto anything that might generate any interest at all. Just lets some crazy leak out onto what's left of their brand. Its hard to think of companies that would be less well placed to do a valinites day promotion ... I mean which is worse? A) a budget brand toilet roll company B) a pre development space ship game company C) a mine heavy equipment suppliers

TheDeadlyShoe posted:i watched an interesting video about crunch in the VFX industry recently. If anything, it appears to be even worse than for code monkeys. Can totally confirm. Worked in VFX for years until someone showed me I could make the same money or more in games doing 50 hour weeks instead of 80 weeks and sleeping under my desk because it was too unsafe to drive home after a 20 hour work day. Everything you mentioned above is spot on. All you’re missing is the famous saying from the biz “the movie dates not gonna slip because didn’t finish your shots: You’re just never going to get hired again because you’re considered a non-performer” And “You better not go home and sleep, it’s safer to sleep at work near your terminal. Otherwise the render-farm might start dropping frames on your shot, and when the VFX Sup comes in in the morning, and you’re shot isn’t spot on for review, you will be heading towards unemployment”

TheAgent posted:since our health care is directly tied with our jobs, its hard to say "gently caress this, lets get organized" if you have any sort of minor medical condition, because that poo poo without insurance can cost you thousands of dollars a month for basic medication. or if you have a baby, are pregnant, or just god forbid get your skull cracked open on a protest, here's your ER/hospital bill for a couple hundred grand Truth. I work in HR and deal with benefits, employment law, etc. all the time, and I studied labor union history and laws as part of a certification. Corporations have all the power when it comes to stopping unions, and as long as they don't outright state they're doing it to stop unions they can pretty much fire whoever they want at any time. And then, even in the best case scenario where you get a new job immediately, you're still looking at 3+ months of no insurance (or the expensive joke that is COBRA). The costs are extra crazy if you're older and/or have kids.
