I just hope we'll be getting back to the good old days of parts of the space station detaching and being bound to the movement of the player ship instead. It was the best of times; it was the worst of times.

Somehow your ship is the previously walkable sections of the station. And then you obviously can't undock from yourself, or from anything, really because you're just a ship and not docked at all.

Instead of deleting the space station they accidental delete everything outside the space station. It takes two weeks to fix.

The station becomes the player. Every part of the station made out of nightmarish cronenberg-esque body horror as the game loads the player model for every part of the station, before twisting and warping them to the proper shapes. Hand rails made of mile-long player. Floor tiles of player crushed down and stretched out to make the meter by meter plates. Every stair a seperate player, staring at you with long-dead eyes. Attempting to delete the nightmare station leaves a void in the programming causing anyone to load into the game to suffer a crash so bad it corrupts their computer registry and erases the BIOS (it was a particularly bad crash).

The year is 2948. Star Citizen is so realistic, literally reality could be gameplay. The uncertainty has gripped the ‘verse in fear. I go to board my Cutter for comfort. She is cake.

I’m sure it will be a very short period of time , if it hasn’t happened already Where either cig or a backer will claim this is all part of the master plan , you see this station was the first thing in the game It’s clearly out dated and won’t “work” with all the new stuff they’ve packed into the game since , so it has to go to make room for a newer and better thing in its place you see In fact this is all proof of positive forward progress they would only start removing things if they’re so certain that soon the pipes will overflow with cool NEW space stations and not that dingy old port ollisar piece of poo poo Which by the way makes you explode if you try to fly through the spinning rings now , it used to not do that so they’re actually making things worse over time Whodathunkit

Is this another station they're removing? Or is that the one they removed ages ago but it was totally fine because it was supposed to be in another system and that other system will release any time now as soon as server meshing gets figured out.

My suggestion for their events Have one ship the players can pilot call it “the dad”. It features a white skin, a goatee or beard your choice , and Oakley sunglasses on top All the weapons shoot piles of cash in different amounts And the enemy ships are all of varying differences but look nothing like the dad ship

Ok now he sounds like himself again. Was that earlier moment of clarity just a weak moment or is his mental shell cracking? Pisscat's mental state is a lot more interesting than anything that's happening with SC.

Kinda feel bad for Cat Dude. When he hits the moment of clarity it’s going to be like a 2 bottle of whisky a day drinker realising they need to hit an AA meeting. Feels like it’s not far off for him either

Half the anger on Reddit is that the event has completely broken the game, the other half is that they can’t side with Xenothreat and become space-Nazis. Of course it’s all lampshaded but the fact that aliens don’t even exist in the game. colonelwest fucked around with this message at 21:08 on Jul 3, 2023 |

How can they tell a difference? because before the once a year 'event' the servers wouldn't melt down every 20 minutes so they could at least pretend there was a game and meet up and make pew pew sounds with their friends all told i can see why CIG keep doing this event, it really is showing how much progress they've made all year !

So, uhh, what has CIG done with all it's RnD time that other engines have not managed to do exactly? Why are they still going on about how amazing this engine is anyway? I thought they wanted to play a game?quote:many many times over the last 10 years people have told them they would never be able to do the things they plan to do - yet they have done those things As far as I can tell, they haven't still, but I think it is more people didn't think they would get so long to flail their way to the little they have accomplished because this whole thing should have crashed and burned long ago. The whole project defies reason and not in a good way. The fun will be layered in once the pipelines are established. quote:If you want to be pedantic, then Starfield has been at the very least 12 years in development This just in, every game that uses Unreal has been in development since 1995.

The word "never" does all the heavy lifting that backers need; when someone says Star Citizen will never get made, they think to themselves "ah, but perhaps ten years from now..." and are comforted. After all, in infinite space and with nearly infinite time, who's to say that Star Citizen as it was promised will not spontaneously coalesce out of stellar dust somewhere far away, trillions of years from now?
