Scruffpuff posted:I have a ray-tracing story (doesn't everyone?) that, in a roundabout way, is a Star Citizen cautionary tale (isn't everything?) This is actually quite funny because I did something very similar. I had to use certain elements and certain functions, and doing it in 3D Studio (not Max... that was still not in the scene yet!), was a hassle. So I used Photoshop and 2D editing to finish the scene.

4th Stimpire Queen posted:I dunno, I feel like $8.5K is rookie numbers. Piss cat missed years of development, so he's probably not aware that people played through all of sq404 like 8 years ago, and I think Ben said it was definitely as good as wing commander and everyone would be happy with it. There was literal video trailers with dates that came and went, webpages with "answer the call" where the years just bumped up every time it was passed. I'm glad he's excited that "People are playing it". I'm sure it's "weeks, not months" or years, away. (Fyi this is what they told people in like 2014)

Open PvP has long been proven to be perfectly reasonable and to bring out only the best from its gaming communities, and I see no reason why anyone would ever be griefed.

There is no way anyone could grief people in Star Citizen because the jail/justice gameplay is so perfect that you would never want to be sent to jail, and if you where, it's totally because you deserve it ...... And now it will be on your record permanently and stop you from ever have any fun in Chris Roberts Star Citizen....... Hope you like the Grim Hex bar tenders t-pose you criminal scum.

A cat posted:Ironic eh? People are begging for information regarding Squadron 42 and you want them to shut up about it. What a ridiculous thing to say. I work in the video games industry, adjacent to actual game developers. Some of them are big videogame fans yes, of course. A very comparable number play zero games at all, some more play games but not our own. A game developer will know a lot about the thing that they work on on how it relates to videogames, they're not by default videogame lore gurus.

Juicy bits from: https://www.asiaone.com/digital/scepticism-around-project-100-star-citizen-developers-know-whats-been-said-bad-publicity-fraud-chris-roberts I had to cut quite a bit of stuff but the whole thing is interesting as it's basically VIPs at CIG dialing the bullshit to eleven and using the same excuses backers post every day. Let's start! Not a scam, /gaming loves SC, spite pledging confirmed, we don't answer negative stuff, we simply censor all dissent! quote:As the senior vice-president of marketing, Chin (along with director of community Tyler Witken) is always tuned into community sentiments and claimed that it "has never ever been higher". Erin with dreams.txt quote:"Look at the game," said Erin Roberts, the 52-year-old chief development officer. "We're doing something no one else is doing. If you're going to go and talk to ex-employees who are disgruntled then you're going to sometimes have that happen." We have a nice demo, thus progress has really accelerated since 2013. Also new excuse, spotty wi-fi is why SC won't work. quote:Gesturing to a projection of a demo of the game which showed the player character in a space city surrounded by buildings with, quite frankly, gorgeous snow particle effects, Chin added: "We let people look at this, like this screen right here of Microtech and the snow that's going on. "staggering transparency" says Zyloh. quote:Back in February, the company announced that they were making changes to their product roadmap as "passionate players" took features that were added as a "promise" and getting upset when it was delayed. explains where the money goes. quote:"We're running a staff of 1000 people so that kind of explains where the money goes," Roberts immediately responded, adding that all the money they got is "spent completely back on the game and developing the game". Dissing refundians. quote:"After that timeframe, people stopped asking as much... I think what you're you're seeing is there's a refund subreddit, where people complain about things, and they're very much the same old folks that were there from 10 years ago." SC = World of Warcraft. laments they can't hit beta cause the game is too huge and tech has to be built. Server meshing end of 2023, maybe! quote:Chin also likened the development costs to Blizzard's World of Warcraft and how it would be a "phenomenal" figure too if one were to look at the same period of 10 years. Never done before! Tech boundaries! Complex new systems! quote:Throughout the interview, it was brought up several times that they're pushing the technological boundaries for this game and how it takes time to build "complex new systems that have never been built before". We totally slowed down with concept ships, we now only sell small ships which is basically the only thing we're capable of doing nowadays. They're also totally not delivering concepts they sold in the past but who is checking anyway, not this article for sure. quote:That said, Chin admitted that they're still selling concept ships — something that has caused the game to run afoul of UK's Advertising Standard Authority. 4th Stimpire Queen fucked around with this message at 07:51 on Dec 12, 2022 |

The end of that article is just quote:Star Citizen isn't pretending to be something it's not, with disclaimers in place to inform gamers that the game is an alpha build and in development. A bit rich to say that in the article where you compare Star Citizen with World of Warcraft (released 2004) and Breath of the Wild (released 2017), and have spent most of the interview promising that the "Jesus tech" required to make those dreams come true is just around the corner, 6 months tops! quote:Chin concluded: "What I would tell people is only play us if you're ready to play us. We're not asking everyone to come and check us out now, which is why we do a lot of Free Flies (a limited-time event where people can play the game for free). Yees... They don't want everyone to check out Star Citizen, as evidenced by the fact that the first quote from a CIG employee in the article is about how community sentiment is great! Not touching on the obvious paradox of only playing of you're ready to play... But why do free flies in this case? If there's no objective of reaching more players, why not let people discover at their own pace and schedule? How are free flies the best way to implement this principle? quote:"What we want to tell people is, hey, we're a very ambitious game. We're early access alpha, check this out. If you like what you see, because there's so much content here, then you should play. "Because there's so much content" - citation needed And yes, perfectly normal to be in early access alpha after ten years on a Cryengine mod. After all, there are so many groundbreaking games being made with it that it's benefiting from constant attention from third parties with great plugins and it's easy to hire excellent developers! quote:"And if you don't, then I think you should stay away. We very much want people to wait until beta if that's what they're comfortable with." * Beta release not guaranteed.
