grimcreaper posted:loving hell thats amazing... poo poo like this is what i expected of Star Citizen early on. The Looting / Crafting mechanics have potential. If they take their cue from Borderlands and Diablo, and inject the novelty of rare/super rare/legendary items into the game (scattered in wreckage on planets or in space), that could radically change the nature of the grind. (At least for me.) Luck-- the hope that hours or days of exploration just might lead to a once-in-a-blue-moon discovery-- is sorely missing from the game. With the exception of discovering an earth like planet or black hole, there are no such joys to be found. Yet you can not pick up a planet and augment your gameplay. It will not turn a middling ship into a force to be reckoned with in combat, or otherwise make your ship SPECIAL. Elite needs moments like this, randomized good luck discoveries that mask the grind behind the addictive lure of slot machine arm pulls. They need to be more than cosmetic-- it can't just be "wow I have rainbow pulse lasers now everybody dance!" But they don't have to be limited to weapons. Loot tech that gave a Cobra a serious bump in maneuverability, or gave an Imperial Clipper a massive boost in jump distance, could be equally interesting. I would spend a crapton more time exploring if there was a chance the reward might actually give me a better gameplay experience. I suspect a lot of players are like this. Loot drops are just one example of a way that Elite could really change the game for the better. Of course, they might not be going in this direction at all, but that's my hope, even recognizing how much it might upset the current balancing... The game needs surprise-- emergent surprise, not 'download the latest patch and then you'll find barnacles on Merope' type stuff. Sorry to ramble. I've got my fingers crossed because I, like you, wish they would give me more reasons to go back, more often.

The cool thing I did do though was jury rig it to a set of MYVU Video goggles (rip MYVU) to make a crude, but semi working homebrew VR headset.

Pages behind at this point, but sure. I have been losing weight since the year began. It was just time to do so. Lesnick isn't the reason, though he is an excellent visual reminder of just how easy it can be to let yourself go; an old friend passing away from a heart attack a few weeks back is more motivation but still, it has to come from within. 5' 10". Started around 263 or 264 pounds; currently down to 248.6. Aiming for 200 or below by 2017. Regardless of how Lesnick's attitude or role in fleecing gullible people might affect how much sympathy anyone has for him, it's just plain that nobody should be doing that to themselves. Hell, I put on appreciable weight at my last job due to stress; I can only imagine what CIG would do to anyone in his shoes.

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:This happens every year. CIG goes all out with content (and hilarity) during the November/December timeframe, and then magically when the new year happens there is nothing to talk about for months. When that happens the thread inevitably descends into badposting and talking about stupid poo poo... like how lovely the thread is. I'm hoping Solar Plebeian can take up the slack in the dry times, but I'm having trouble merging the FPS portion I paid redacted to work on into the giant shitmess I made cause I was drunk coding and decided 64 bit was a must-have. But everything is fine, my German friend is fixin' it up for me. I'll provide weekly updates starting

Dolvak stepped down on the subreddit. Having spoken with him privately before; he had no issues talking about the negative aspects of Star Citizen. Unlike most (anyone running any type of public group in SC); He also has called CIG out several times in the past for loving some things up. He just never did it regularly like others in less visible community positions had. At least at one point in recent months, INN was tossing around the idea of doing an exposé involving CIG's biased moderation staff with people that have run across them; attempted silencing of opinions / people they dislike & making up non-existent rules on the spot to do so. Patrik-CIG (former lead moderator of CIG's forum/chat) sat down on his job for 3 months riding the clock and is now is gone...  Either way, Dolvak was better than whoever will replace him.
