Are things stirring into life, right under our noses? posted:Sounds a tad optimistic I know, but I’m wondering whether CIG are rolling out multiple core tech changes without clearly roadmapping them. quote:It is my contention that the first episode seen by the community of server to server transfer happened at CitizenCon 2019 when the Carrack went from Stanton to Pyro, they breathed a notable sigh of relief when they emerged at Pyro (I was in the second row back on the right side watching) the traversal wasn't that difficult, and when they got there they didn't do anything.. but to them it was the big finale and you could see it on their faces. In order to make that log out / log in transfer they had to have persistence to keep all the players and object containers inside the Carrack as it transitioned. This is the requirement for the first stages of static server meshing, connected client synchronised log out and back in to another server without needing to go to the menu. Soon after this we got the improved party system.

marumaru posted:i found the video to be unironically interesting, but i wonder how much of that will reflect into the gameplay. this sounds sick for a strategy game though. Tony's videos can be theoretically interesting but the problem is they've been putting them out for 6 years, and they are all just theory, there is never any implementation because they simply aren't capable of it

Citizens so badly want Tony Z to be seen as a legendary developer so they can have someone to point to and say "see it's all legit!". Too bad Tony hasn't worked on video games since the 90s.

The reason he hasn't put anything out is that he's been working so hard on this sooper secret AI hot dog vendor's hopes and dreams programming architecture. This is the magnum opus of the greatest computer genius of our generation. He's just too dedicated to his craft to, y'know, put out working software.

The funny thing is that I am reading more and more replies that are kind of quote:Tony and Brian are the only two that have called out Chris on his bullshit. Which recognize that Chris is full of poo poo but don't worry fellow commandos, Tony will take care of us. Buy a Javelin. e: I have found the most SC post ever quote:BTW....did anyone while listening to TZ say the word "attribute" over and over...imagine a quanta standing up and going 'TRIBUTE!!!!"

I know it is some made up bullshit that doesn't mean anything, but what does he think it is? It's the definition of AI where the term virtual is used in the almost or basically nothing sense. Star Citizen has virtual AI. This is true.

HexiDave posted:"Coffee to 60", now featuring 3 giant display screens with no power, and prices not displayed anywhere! It just looks like men designed all of it. What will future counter tops look like? Probably heavy panels... and make it lots of panels with big visible seams between the panels. And make it yellow like construction or caution stuff. Because each panel is modular.

It’s strange to me I’ve played the crusader series as a kid , and enjoyed it But I would have never known who created it aside from the splash screen that came up when you loaded in When did we go from just playing video games to immortalizing the developers ? I mean , I have over 500 hours into arma 3. And I also couldn’t tell you the names of anyone who worked on it It just seems weird to me , aside from the ACTUAL household names like Sid Meier - he deserves the accolades And also. Sid has kept it going since the 80s. He didn’t stop after 1 or 2 games and then just coast on his success, he’s been churning out games all through that time and many many of them were huge hits

Two nearly identical nonentities, distinguishable in my head only by remembering that Tony Z is the one who can drone Dreams.txt for hours on end, while Brian Chambers is the one who has the haunted, despairing eyes of someone who has listened to Dreams.txt for hours on end.

Tony Z seems to genuinely believe he's making something that will actually be in the game someday where as Brian Chambers seems to be a guy who knows SQ42 is never going to be good but he wants to keep getting a pay check so he does the bare minimum public interactions possible.
