How do they keep making everything look so bad? text editor posted:Also I feel like pointing out that the actual moonshot took a hair over 8 years, NASA didn't have a prepackaged "space shuttle engine" to use as a jumping off point, and it had to be largely bugs free since bugs meant dead astronauts Hmmm so if SC started killing backers when it failed it would be fixed is what you're saying?

Who has that kind of energy to dump into anything. I bet he 'owns' an Idris. Regarding this being a gaming 'moonshot', its really not. At any one time you are playing a game that we have seen before, played many times before. running round in corridors? Flying a spaceship? Shopping at the space shop? Carrying boxes? Talking with the barman? Driving a 4x4 on a barren planet? There are 6 OLD games for each of those gameplay loops, off the top of my head. SC isnt best in class at any of those too. It glories in its dated gameplay ideas. Even just this week - Mass Effect trilogy remastered is coming out in a few days on consoles and wipes the floor with SQ42. There is nothing, literally nothing, revolutionary about SC part from the funding model. Its a space game with every piece of scope-creep crap that Roberts could monetise tacked on.

Why didn't the space bulldozer just push the crashed fighter into the hanger so they could retrieve the pilot and salvage the fighter? Why did it have to push the fighter overboard? Why did the fighter even fall when pushed overboard? They're in the space, and the fighter has the same momentum as the ship after the crash. Doesn't Wing Commander have tractor beams? Why didn't the carrier just tractor beam the damaged fighter, or the wreckage of the fighter after pushed overboard? TheBombPhilosopher fucked around with this message at 06:52 on May 10, 2021 |

JugbandDude posted:It looks a lot smaller than the one in the original kickstarter demo. This seems a bit suspicious. Crobsters seems to be an ardent follower of the "bigger is better approach" when it comes to JPEGs. Perhaps CIG is planning to sell multiple variants of the bagel carrier? A mini version of $6.5 K, a regular one for $9 K, and a max version for $12 K. I bet all of them would "sell out" as soon as the JPEGs go on sale. phosdex posted:They'll just stop talking about it. If pressed, "oh server meshing? That was just for internal testing, from the start we never intended that to be a thing on live." Spot on. They do this for every fake jesus tech. I would even argue this is a premeditated marketing/pr/scamming strategy.

The idea that because you spent thousands of dollars on a spaceship people will desperately want to be your friend.

I love how it's a normal tank. Not even like a Landmaster or anything. Not even a modern tank either, it's what 1980 imagined tanks in 1982 would be like.

Forget the physics, where are the tracks from the tank treads?! That's so unfidelitous! As for all the usual 1:1 scale and walking in, it's convenient how none of the faithful apparently ever played Space Engineers or Empyrion. And how 1:1 scale apparently should never apply to planets/galaxy.

Dwesa posted:Tracks, physics, the whole vehicle looks rigid - the suspension is not moving at all, it's oversized and doesn't fit ship it was designed for, it doesn't fit with the rest of the spaceship game in terms of its gameplay, stupid angles of plating, no optics etc. etc. It looks bloody awful, let's be honest - compare it to one of the steel beasts from, say, Graviteam Tactics: Mius Front and it's pretty obvious that CIG has no one on staff who understands how a tonk moves, or how to simulate weight for a big heavy vehicle. Oh sorry, I forgot, it's a space tonk - in the future, all space tonks will skitter about like this. Absolved!

Hm, I seem to remember battlezone having a pretty cool behaving hovercrafts, definitely looking better in motion that crobear tonk, and you could get out of your vehicle, and snipe the pilot of enemy vehicle and steal it.

.random posted:If you trust TheAgent over CIG. If CIG had ever given me one reason to doubt their ability or their integrity, I might buy it. But they’re delivering more, better and faster, than ever before so it’s hard to believe they’d pivot away from server meshing when it’s finally making real, totally unmeasurable improvements to the PU.

But, seriously, there is nothing fidelitous about this tank. That is some embarrassing poo poo, if CIG was able to feel embarrassed. My 200 ton tank just fell down a ravine and bounced a few feet into air, no dust, no reaction, no impact crater, it's all fine. trucutru fucked around with this message at 13:25 on May 10, 2021 |
