Normally I'd say I feel bad for anyone tricked into this. But it's a decade old scam at this point so those idiots deserve to lose their money.

Server meshing? No that's different teams. I can't even begin to imagine how big the tech wall is they hit. Even their padding is lackluster.

Love this totally neccessary AI NPC: 'They also implemented the first version of the landing officer, one of the deck crew that will be used in hangars, landing zones, and capital ships. The landing officer gives players clear directions on how to position their ships in relation to the pad for perfect decents.' In the far future, you will still need a dude with flags who stands at the edge of your landing pad giving you signals for 'back a bit, back... no thats too much... forward...for... oh poo poo no...BACK! Forward!' EDIT: Just seen 'Work also continued on the hygiene behavior, with the team completing setups for the toilet and shower cubicles and their relative blockout animations.' I have no words. EDIT 2: Missed this one - fking lol.

The Epic vs Apple lawsuit really highlights how boring SC has become. It is a glorious haven of newly revealed shady deals, high-level conversations, judge grilling and shizophrenic moral compass, when by comparison, the Crytek vs CIG ended up as a vague wet fart settlement.

trucutru posted:The scale is completely different, Bernie's case is an incredible outlier. But, anyways, you can amend the cynical view to "nothing will happen because he didn't take money from the government or powerful people". Bernie Madoff was one of those exceptional cases. It is my understanding that in the US, there are only consequences in two general cases (exceptions that prove the rule notwithstanding): 1. When you steal from other scammers and/or connected groups (real reason for Madoff's arrest) 2. When your pleb-focused scam becomes a PR liability (i.e. strong risks that plebs might stop believing in the system, which in turn requires a scammer to "take one for the team"). And if you think I am being overly cynical, read up on Madoff's story, particularly the Avellino & Bienes Madoff feeder fund that got busted in the early 90s. There is no good explanation other than systemic corruption (as opposed to petty corruption - i.e. Madoff gave $XXX in bribes etc.). Back to Store Citizen: They are starting a new marketing campaign around their "volumetric clouds" BS: https://external-preview.redd.it/IRH2K2HY18j2BY8RBAMo-3m5ZNk9jD1wOnfrZ8t5BFI.png?auto=webp&s=b5fe6ef098f6b1dca219e86c097e3c3a13173b76 Thought this reaction on was funny: I suspect our dear poster is doing a little bit of trolling, but I may be wrong.

Those clouds look odd, is it supposed to be a gas giant? Doesn't look like one compared to gas giants in Solar System. It doesn't even look like a giant planet, more like a small rocky satellite with some odd cloud cover, but it's tier 0 alien world, so whatever.

Don't worry, they are tier0, in the end the tech will be able to produce every single kind of cloud you may imagine. In the meantime, you know what to buy.
