Taintrunner posted:new space game alert BluesShaman posted:That is a terrible trailer. Have to say i agree. I've been looking at Starpoint Gemini 3, and it's had mixed reviews ever since it began early access. It looks like it's trying to be Freelancer with Rogue Galaxy Outlaw's aesthetic, but not doing so hot on it. It's kinda a shame too, I played some of 1 and 2, and never really finished it

Through the years of video game monetization and homogenization, the gambling-based dopamine loop of fast, repetitive and ultra shallow gameplay became king. Rails were constructed, MMOs became theme parks, and the rest is history. quote:Thx for your great story! I just started playing SC 2 weeks ago after seeming some clips of it on YouTube. And drat, this game is amazing! The graphics, the mechanics and the fine details of the ships, players and environments. The last time I was blown away like this was by first seeking GTA3 on a PlayStation 2. I still remember myself walking into a room and seething a friend driving a car in 3D and get out of that car. Never felt the same until I played star citizen. Press + num pad to talk to payers closely, webcam tracks your face and lips. The first time I walked on a new planet or get into a friends new ship. I know it’s full of bugs and in the 2 weeks I’m playing I already had to reset my character once. ( did not lose any items or ships ). Already cursed a lot but still this game is soo amazing. And the future is looking bright! I love the idea of survival and that they want players to be more aware of dying by making u remake a character when u die to many times. Anyways, this game is awesome 👏🤯 Mirificus fucked around with this message at 01:07 on Nov 8, 2020 |

Death Stranding: AAAA toilet gameplay that didn't cost over $300 million. AND I was never killed by a ramp while delivering a box. Cons: no sexy bears.

Its a scary thought, but Chris probably personally mocapped the toilet stuff. Or imagine him overseeing and directing some one doing it. "No no no, wipe it like THIS! See. Now again." happyhippy fucked around with this message at 01:32 on Nov 8, 2020 |

Mirificus posted:And they haven’t played SC now for almost two years. It’s a miracle. I guess it’s cool that these people are absolutely thrilled by a janky space life simulator hacked together in CryEngine 2 by Full Sail’s finest. But the core of the game is supposed to be an MMO space combat/FPS experience, and 99% of gamers (the ones who aren’t pedantic game dads with brain worms) are going to come to Star Citizen looking to do fun shooty stuff. Instead they’ll be confronted by an gigantic mountain of tedium lying between them and fun. Even if CIG sorts out the technical issues, the game will be an aggressively boring slog. Of course the real answer is that they’ve left that MMO space combat/FPS core to rot and it will never be finished. So they’ll keep piling on more poo poo like prison and hunger and thirst meters as time syncs to obscure the rotten core of the game. colonelwest fucked around with this message at 02:02 on Nov 8, 2020 |

(other than the game not working) Anyone rich enough to afford a virtual wine glass would not be interested obviously. Dose anyone else want to login in for a bit and come admire my collection of virtual dinnerware? I'm sure we can make some emergent game play if we put our minds to it while we appreciate how wealthy and refined I am

Steal all the dinnerware from the space 1% and hide them on asteroids. I presume they need to repurchase the whole ship to get it back.

I, for one, intend to set myself a goal of clipping through the floor of a chariot, landing on a ramp, and dying with the "ouch, my butt hurts" animation. All these things are now in the "game", so they are free to use as sandbox tools for rewiring my dopamine firing mechanism. As soon as the News Van Space Chariot is in the "game", I will challenge other players to duels, where we all clip through the floor at the same time, die on a ramp, and see which one of us gets the most dopamine. I reckon it was a lost opportunity for fidelity(tm)... Crobear should have ordered the tracking of dopamine and and endorphin levels instead of boring old argon.

Taintrunner posted:new space game alert I enjoyed playing through 1 and 2, but think I'll give this one a pass. The Starpoint games have been solid B-tier space games, yet the third one seems even rougher than before. Might be that the team has had to scale back resources. Waaaay back.

Yeah, the not-particularly good graphics and obnoxious music made me turn that trailer off in about ten seconds flat. Maybe there's good gameplay under there somewhere.

My dream is to work hard enough as a crew member so that I get invited to dine at the captain's table as a reward. All that fine China and expensive exotic foods. It would be heaven compared to the steady diet of hotdogs most commandos have to eat. And with this new bathroom gameplay, my mopping skills will finally pay off!!

anyone who has ever had wine in real life would know that there have to be 2 wine glasses in case you want to drink red and white wine simultaneously.

His next "adventure" is sitting back and letting other people fly around and do a space scavenger hunt while he does ... nothing? And he "can't wait"? It's almost like these people don't actually want to play a game.

Gambling, lewd outfits, and various other types of content catering strictly to entertainment from there dont seem to be considered atm. quote:Talk about what ? Unless their telling you what to do, just about and looking like their having fun on your ship etc I think is a nice start. Eye candy.

Around five years ago, I was in a pretty dark place. Taking care of my step-father who had early onset Alzheimer's, watching the rise of fascist propaganda, trying to get my ridiculously obvious coping mechanisms of alcohol, sex and drugs under control, and just being tired all the goddamn time. Ain't gonna lie, it was pretty rough. After going to E3 and hearing how much poo poo people were talking about SC and Chris Roberts there, I opened up my ears and reached out to game devs I knew from waaay back in the 90s. The experiences they described not only gave me a chuckle, but it also gave me something I desperately needed: a distraction. Compiling them, posting them, talking about the various (sometimes un-loving-believable) rumors and making other people lol brought some levity to a lot of dark days. Yesterday was the first time in nearly half a decade things seemed brighter. Felt better. We're all going through some absolutely terrible times; physically, emotionally, economically. But it felt better. Even if it is just for a goddamn day, it got better. There's endless more battles to fight, but for a goddamn weekend I'm enjoying the win. I want to thank everyone here for being super supportive and laughing at my dumb dad jokes. For letting me vent. For posting Tane. For being kind. Y'all have done a lot for me, even if you never talked to me, messaged me or believed any of the poo poo I ever posted here. Again, thank you, every single loving one of you. See you in the verse, commandos.
