I'm pretty sure that there has to be a spell in Dungeons and Dragons that does this exact thing. Cloud of Cats, maybe? Zone of Meowing? Storm of Kittens? Greater Conjure Feline? Fur-cecage? Purr-smatic Sphere? Mistoffelees' Toxoplasmotic Barrier? e: Transmute Air to Catnip? Hall-mew-cinatory Purr-ain? Time_pants fucked around with this message at 02:50 on Apr 25, 2020 |

So, we see the "space cows" and we mock them, but what does the citizen do?quote:Really wanting to see more AI from this game. An MMO needs NPCs that we can go fight/farm/kill. I know Star Citizen is more geared towards being a space-sim MMO. But having random world events and raids, battles and fights is what would really spice this game up. This game seriously lacks gameplay loops and AI is key to it. quote:I hope they go all out on wildlife. This is what can set star citizen so far ahead of other games. When you build a universe this big AND have diverse alien wildlife it gives the true frontier feeling. When you don't know if you're going to encounter a "space bear" at this cave for example - this is true exploration. It's a different reality. Also, this was supposed to be a space game about flight ships around doing pew-pew.

Quavers posted:Someone's done a video that makes Elite actually look hella fun I love combat in Elite, the tragedy for me is the hundred-plus hours of engineering/materials grind that has to be done before you can fully equip a big combat ship. Elite's combat has always been great, the problem is that the game loops don't support each other. If you enjoy combat you can't progress your ship just by doing it- you're going to need to mine or trade to make bulk money, endlessly scan stuff for engineering data, endlessly fly around exploring for materials, land and do surface stuff for minerals, fly out to the alien areas for the guardian blueprints, etc etc etc. I'm at the point now where I can take my Cutter out and just fly around in the little single-seat fighter having fun while my turrets and NPC pilot fly the big ship like it's my personal private Star Destroyer. But I've sunk 400 or more hours in and I rarely feel like getting on to play anymore. I was hoping the new carrier stuff would add some group-play incentives, because I really think the game's at its' best when you're with friends, but nope. ---- In other flight-sim news IL-2 is having a 75% off sale on all their expansions this week which is a pretty good deal given that they're normally like $80 each.

Citizens are going to have to confront the very real possibility that Star Citizen, the spaceship space game, is actually going to have cows and birds before it has the Idris that they paid thousands of dollars for. It's uncanny, I still remember when birds were a joke and the number one example of Chris just saying "Yes" to everything. And now here we are, and birds will be in before multicrew. Guess he really showed us haters!

It became a lot better after they added material traders. No longer scrimping around trying to find those difficult to get materials. Just trade something you have plenty of. Last year i totally redid my fleet from like 10 CM3s/CM4s to a fleet different ships. Used inara to see what i needed to fully engineer all of them. Then looked at what i could trade to make up any shortages. In the end, fully engineered most of the stuff without even needing to go hunt for any materials. Just had a new things left that I needed to go gather, but mostly minor stuff that wasn't even that important to do.

Yes, we're working on an updated way to share our progress on SQ42, and are doing that with the feedback y'all have given us in mind. We've been experimenting with converting our internal sprint blocks into something we can display and maintain publicly. We're actually really excited to share more on this soon. Also, we'll have Brian Chambers back in front of the camera to give us another update on the team and how things are going in the very near future.

Space cows, mines, prisons, hotdogs, shopping malls, improved trains, dangerous weather, new elevator panels. Everything about the latest developments is about the on foot experience in this space game with $500+ dollars spaceships. Wait, now sometimes you can respawn in your ship if it is expensive enough to have a bed so that's worth it. Quavers posted:

"Star Citizen" you mumble to yourself as you turn on your $7,000 computer and run Star Citizen - the best drat space sim and FPS ever made. You watch your character's legs get into a spaceship while you message a friend's helmet in the game - they're also your friend on a forum, a seamless integration. The rest of your free time is spent flying a spaceship your peers could only dream of spending disposable income on, and drinking cocktails that were mo-capped in a cool nightclub - on the moon! Your super hot real life wife begs you for sex, but you're too busy having sex with your virtual wife in New Babbage. Afterwards, you blast rocks with a laser, and watch your heart rate while doing so. This is why FUD will never beat Chris Robert's vision.

colonelwest posted:Star Citizen’s lore is just a lovely collage of ideas from other sci-fi franchises. Like there’s an ecumenopolis in the same system and the UEE even built a planet from scratch in another system, but they still want to throw around arbitrary resource/engineering limits. Hah! That manufactured planet is a universally known boondoggle in the empire and has been a worthless money sink for years! Read the lore you goddamn goon refudian.

Megalobster posted:Chris Roberts present: the first nonhumanoid creature introduced to the game will be space cows (the irony) "Terraforming kills all current life on the subject planet, after which settlers bring animals with them to populate the new world. Because of this you'll see a lot of the same animals on many worlds." Raises hand Ummm.. in that case, why didn't they take cows from Earth instead? Then we could make jokes like: "Is that cow Fresian?" "Nah, looks quite warm really". But isn't this a massive walkback on all the unique worlds that CIG touted? Alien species, alien life, alien stuff? Nope, now its going to be copy/paste all over. Still, on the other hand, maybe this is part of CIG finally waking up to the fact that they can't do half of the things they promised over the years.

Promises are source of money for Roberts, Trump gets funded by taxes no matter what. Quite otherwise, I am surprised Roberts isn't promising more, more, more, since that's what makes the money flow. Patch was lackluster? But they promised these thirty features! Time to send more money to make it happen!

Actually this prison gameplay is perfect. We can just assume that other jobs will follow the same method! If you work a night bartender job you could either interact with a lovely UI for 8 hours...or just log off, go to bed, and wake up to a job well done! It's like EVE Online skills except somehow even less fulfilling.
