that didnt come from roberts unless you took dictation therefor you work there. After all the only truth in CIG is roberts right? That is what CR said right? the only truth is his and you stated that as a truth.

so you just gave yourself away and go home or stay and play for the lols. just stop pretending.

I mean, it didn't come from Roberts but it's work that someone is doing in a studio. And, all of the Monthly Reports go to Roberts for review before released. So ...

Haha how do you go from `we are still working on the art assets and lightning` to its all done in like a month. Anuses, they don't have anything close to being finished. They are hoping to have something they can at least attempt to show by mid August and Im sure they'll hit another roadblock in July when they do that last mo cap session making them have to reshoot something later on

…but it doesn't really say any of that. So you're not just taking their word for it — you're taking their vague obfuscations and extrapolating to where you wish it would be. I know that it's a common affliction among citizens to be completely oblivious to the distinction between what has been said by CIG and what they have imagined themselves, but realise that you're not in an environment right now where those leaps will be accepted without scrutiny.

Also the May update does not say "last major addition for SQ is in July and most of the levels are already complete". It says that the mocap will be done in July, that the levels for the mocap segments are being worked on. Shubin, one of the major levels for SQ42 and something CIG has been working on for years, hasn't even left gray boxing.

What do you think makes this monthly report "facts" different from the other monthly reports or other star marine updates (tens of them) where CIG was wrong or lied repeatedly?

It's just standard circular reasoning. CIG always tells the truth. If what happens doesn't jive with what they said would happen, it's just the nature of game development that deadlines are missed, and things had to change. The perils of "open development" - if you're honest about everything you're doing, when you wind up wrong, you get called a liar.

That is the standard defense in these situations, and nothing I've read so far indicates that it will be deviated from. Of course it's also a great defense for when they really are lying, because in every case, they can just claim the dynamic nature of game development, and pave over the lie quite neatly.

Of course, the kicker here is that even if CIG has never lied, and has consistently told the truth, or at least their best guess as to what they had planned, it's even more damning that if they had lied. The product they have produced thus far is violently different, and astoundingly far removed, from every single promise/pledge/word they have ever spoken since the original Kickstarter and all the way down the line. If CIG can't be right even once about their own game, then even if they're telling the truth, it's not worth believing.

NO ONE CAN HEAR YOU PARP IN SPACE.

ManofManyAliases posted:

Oh - and for those asking about my food:

Last night, I grilled a nice marbled ribeye that I finished in a cast iron pot for a good char. The key to properly grilling a steak is to allow it to rest at room temperature for 30 mins prior to grilling, and season it with nothing but salt (Kosher salt is best as it covers more surface area) and ground black pepper. Second, you want to make sure you're using high eat to sear in the juices. When thrown on the grill, watch to see as the blood emerges from the top of the steak (generally around the 2 minute mark). Do not flip before you see this. After you flip, you should give it another 1.5 to 2 mins. I gave it less because I then threw it in a cast iron with butter, thyme and garlic to finish of the sear (and a medium-rare temp).

With the steak, I made some brown rice and quinoa and a side of sauteed baby spinach.

This morning, I had leftover steak so I sliced it thin and made two eggs over-easy, pan fried tomatoes, and some feta for a quick and easy, healthy meal.

Sous Vide is the only way to go.
