Kings need not raise their voices to be heard

They also give me the impression that virtual safety is literally the only thing he thinks about with every waking hour of his existence, and probably dreams about on top of that. And your point is correct - it's not PvP per se he opposes, it's non-consensual PvP, because he might not automatically win - he'd have to react and show skill, even if he's not "in the mood". You know, the very definition of dynamic, meaning not tied to player actions but something occurring spontaneously - a living breathing universe. He doesn't want that. He wants solitaire in space.

Imagine having this guy as your father. You reach for the door handle as a kid... "WAIT! YOU CAN'T GO OUT THERE! YOU COULD GET KILLED!!!!!

I think, despite it being something they have been discussing for over two years and all of their mocap work/millions spent on the FPS stuff they still haven't integrated anything beyond what shipped with the original hangar module.

Chris probably mo-capped some people running on their hands in case they add the feature and now the animators have to stitch that data to normally positioned models.

You need to have a stable production cycle as well as animators to massage that mo cap data into something useful. When Chris shows up on a coke bender and demands grabby hands that goes out the window. Start over. Also add all this new tech.

Oh and unify 1st and 3rd person animations to be consistent for ~reasons~. It might look messed up in 1st person but it will be correct and that is all that is important. So what if it makes your animators wake up in a night terror induced sweat.

Wait, no wait! We need juking and weight to everything. Start over. Here we have a pile of shitheap mo'cap data. Sandi went with Chris to the UK for vacation CEO and Marketing business. What about location specific damage. Throw that in there too.

etc.

etc.
etc.

Their poo poo production cycle (throw in blender press puree) is to blame for most of it. Then there is also Cryengine itself which seems to have a lot of built in input lag giving the characters a really non-grounded feeling.

This bug has been there since day one by the way. They still haven't fixed it.

Edit : I just remembered when I first started playing this, when you got in the ships, it would sometimes fling you like a slingshot over 300kms away in a matter of seconds, they still haven't fixed that one either I have seen. Best one though is when you go to land and you get absorbed in the station and can get out and walk around in the voids. I think they kind of fixed that one.
