More realism to the game, star CITIZEN posted:

Hello, I was shocked by the details in the beautiful cities in sc, and the spawning points.

But I have to say, I have had some disappointments along the way, like that when arriving at a city, I can see all these tall buildings, and at orison I can see the gardens and view, but I can't actually visit most of them on foot.
The game is called Star CITIZEN and when going into a city like Area18 and seeing Adira Falls I can't ignore that players should have a way to rent/buy an apartment or a hotel room. the game is called star citizen. I am, as a player, supposed to be a citizen. And citizens have a place to live at.

You really put a great effort to the spawning place and I think you should enable citizens to rent/buy these capsules/hotel rooms/apartments and also log out of the game there. After I exit the spawning point, I can't return after the door closes. I really want to own a house in the 30th century as a citizen, I would pay an extra 30 dollars just for that. Citizens could be able to share apartments with their friends and respond to ECNs or to an emergency beacon of one of their friends from their apartment and etc, and Charge their MobiGlas. This thing is an electronic device, after all.
I think a lot of other citizens would agree with me that the ability to actually LIVE in the 30th century is very cool, on top of being able to travel in space with friends.
Being able to call the bank and request a loan from it or even from their friends, and also being able to work at the bank, or spaceport managing the traffic. There are a lot of people in the flight simulation community that like to be ATC (Air Traffic Controllers) like in VATSIM
Joining the police forces, and enforce the law around the UEE territory, for reputation, and for higher clearances to rooms and missions. Going to a protest with friends. And a lot more.


It would surely bring more people to the game, and you can also make that as an expansion, and then the community and you will both benefit

Additionally if you want to be a space man doing space man things there is a truly excellent Alien RPG out published by Free League. Granted, it leans pretty hard into the horror aspect of the actual aliens but it's built in a way that you could run a whole space trucker campaign or colonial marines campaign and never even see an alien if you wanted.

Is it hard to get cocaine in Great Britain? I'm clueless about such things in America, never mind overseas.

Wrapping your head around the places are video game levels where the buildings you see are just 3D models with nothing actually inside them seems like it should be a basic understanding. This has been how it's been since video gaming got to that level.

SC doesn't even have cities at the level of interaction as a GTA type open world. You can just admire the graphics from within the bounds of the level. If you go outside it it quickly turns into one of those situations where you're interacting with stuff not meant to be interacted with, like going out of boundaries in an open world game.

Was talking to an IRL friend of mine who is big into ED, and they are studiously trying to ignore that ED has been released for long enough now that it is hitting end of life, which saddens them. Unfortunately in the same conversation they started telling me how they thought SC "looks amazing" (SC was reintroduced to them via the whole ex-Odyssey streamer thing) and I am now worried they are going to buy in, despite me having told them for years how it's a dumpster fire made of incompetence and dreams.txt

Not gonna because I believe they are worth saving, but what's the thread opinion on how heavy to rip the piss out of them if they do buy in? Have known this person 20+ years so comfortable being brutally honest with them

I'll let you know that I visited all the buildings in Anor Londo and in the bathhouse Gwynevere was, like naked, and I tripped and fell on the top of her boobs (literally!) and she went b-b-b-aka!

Many of us have a hard workday and I think it would be fine to have the choice not to grind for new ships but just buy one.

same guy posted:

Of course, ship prices should remain high to have a motivation to earn them in game, components should be just buyable with UEC.

Why do they keep having free fly events before the new patch bugs are fixed? It's turned several of my friends away from buying the game in the past and I can imagine many people getting the wrong first impression from these events.

In a game where elevators and even stairs are lethal, let's get hard to work on creating a permadeath mechanic.

I wonder if more clones will cost money?

So like every other modern video game? "I work hard so I should be able to buy things in the game so I don't have to play it because playing this game is work"

[i]3.14 isnt in a state where a free flight is appropiate

It feels like we say this with every free flight.

It is in exactly a state where a free fly is appropriate.

No. No ongoing purchase of ships. We backed this project, we had faith, so many other people out there crap on it. We get ships. They get to grind and be our peasant underclass.[/i]

Is this actually real? It feels like a far too on the nose distillation of what’s typically only hinted at by mega whales and mocked ITT as the ship-mopping janitor progression system.

My mind is slightly blown that someone has actually come out and expressed sincerely that they expect people to choose to play within an entrenched two-tier class system where they are permanently serfs. For fun. Who the gently caress do they think would actually do this

lobsterminator posted:

They do it because if they play as janitors for ten years, they might afford a ship of their own.

LostRook posted:

No, it comes out more in One's other work Mob Psycho 100 and the Murata version obscures it but One Punch Man definitely has a core message of "Grow up and live in the real world" with a strong anti-fantasy bent.

Bootstraps: in space!

It’s like they’ve never seen human beings interact on an MMO before. First thing that’s gonna happen in their dreamed for hyper realistic fidelity sim is Jeeves the loyal janitor taking his fidelity mop with individual mop head fibre physics and beating the poo poo out of them before jacking their ship and flying it into a sun.
