Trilobite posted:I'm sure a professional software developer will be on reddit within the next few hours to explain how this is entirely normal for a project of this size and ambition, and getting those jobs filled will be easy. After all, the best way to do things that have never been done before is to hire people who have never done anything before, which is why a CIG employee lineup these days looks like a high school class photo. It's like how according to science, the bumblebee shouldn't be able to fly, but the bumblebee doesn't know that so it flies. People with no programming experience don't know what you can't do, so they do it. Star Citizen proves this logic.

I like how they are adding alien ships, but its obvious they are only designed for human sized models.

I have yet to see a single alien, or a human. Plenty of sentient fetish-dolls walking around though.

A lot of jobs are going at their Wilmslow office in the UK which isn't far from me. I've been tempted to apply, I don't have any experience or knowledge of the roles (I'm a web dev) but worth a punt eh?

CSGO shut down their trading for it, lesser known games got shut down for it, it's a thing that happens and with huge dollar amount items it's the perfect area to obfuscate millions a month and now the guy who is a part of turbulent who is a part of this entire shitshow is a russian oligarch banned from doing business in the US, totally normal, organic business practices, nothing to see here just normal people spending several hundred thousands on a broken tech demo like they do

TheAgent posted:not $2,500, not $25,000, but multiple loving accounts with hundreds of thousands of dollars of "merchandise" Is that based off of the ships they have for sale? 'Cause a thought occurs to me- during one of the sales they could buy a ship, return it for store credit, buy another, return it also ect ect ect... Then when someone wants to buy one they can use the "rebuy" feature to retrieve it and sell it- but they wouldn't have all those ships at once... (I guess they'd have to upgrade a fresh ship for it to be giftable? CIG's store and CCUs and upgrades are all unbelievably fucky...) -like intentionally so. Describing CIG byzantine ship sales and upgrade process is like listening to a MLM pitch- complete with its own lingo and abbreviations... "if you just CCU the rebuy into an upgraded Idris you'll increase the number of floor moppers in your downline and be a double black diamond concierge rear-admiral!!!"
