Scruffpuff posted:Instead of actually modelling flight physics (mass of ship, power of thrusters, direction of thrust and the resulting acceleration and velocity etc.) they're actually doing it in reverse. By default the ship is assumed to be in one piece and therefore has their "default" tweak values for noclipping around. If the ship takes "damage" to a certain thruster, then the ship will fly differently based on that damage state. Example: Source your quotes. My immersion will not be broken.

Decrepus posted:Star Citizen: Every System is in Flux Star Citizen : Fluxed Capacitor Beer4TheBeerGod posted:The superfluous walkways in the cargo section annoy me. They serve no purpose other than to look cool and provide another way to walk around. Maybe they serve as an alternate FPS path? But if so it seems like just going outside the ship would be equally logical. More importantly they take up space that could be used for larger items or pieces of cargo. Maybe they make more sense with other modules that have two levels? FD intentionally designed Elite's ship launched fighters and SRV not to have russian doll syndrome, where as Star Citizen has been hilariously going down that path. The issue is mainly a technical one, which can be cheated through, but since Crobbers is against "cheating" those are the results you get for trying to recreate reality. e: FD link https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php/198765-Summary-of-the-Collectibles-Q-amp-A-with-Sandro?p=3076061&viewfull=1#post3076061 Chris Roberts design principles : YES YES YES.

Saladin Rising posted:Haha wow, it never really clicked for me that Star Citizen is like custom-made for griefing. There's nothing in place to keep griefers from constantly wrecking all those thousand-dollar ships, and that's exactly what griefers are going to do if Star Citizen is released in any sort of vaguely playable form. Star Citizen, from videos, has a ridiculous short TTK (time to kill) period. A connie dies within a minute, ships crash in spectacular fashion with no auto eject (not sure why this is not a feature), players die and ships despawn with them, jumping out of a ship while its flying doesn't follow physics (your velocity = ship velocity) but instead of a high possibility of your death. Griefed Citizen.

A Neurotic Corncob posted:Remember back in March when Chris said that Craig Grounsell was gonna get docking up and running in short order, and that it was a technically easy thing to do? It's really funny that he said its not a technical hurdle and will get guys to work on it. Then later goes on to talking about a flying Idris and how fun it is to fly ships in and out of its hangar when the docking functionality isn't implemented yet. TLDR, buy an Idris!

Not defending Derek, but LoD is playable and on Steam Early Access. Sadly comparing apples to apples, LoD is definitely more functional than SC is at this point. I'm wondering why I said that and it left an awful aftertaste.

AP posted:You can get gifted items refunded as long as the value is less than the amount you spent on the account. The gifting limitations are all poo poo CIG made up. If you've $100 on your account in RSI meltable value items and have spent $150 you can get $100 back. If you have $100 on your account in RSI meltable value items and have spent $50 you should be able to get $50 back and have them leave the account open with the other $50 still on it or have $50 returned to whoever gifted you it.

I think feeding misinformation (2 actual languages, crafted by a linguist, used by NPCs??) to the backers is just sad. These are generally things that you would use 1% of during the production of anything, they're just reference points so that you don't get hit with IP / legal / license / copypasta issues.

Looks like some alien symbols for procreation to me. Nobody is going to play a game with an actual real alien language being used. Well, Star Citizens would, though.

Sillybones posted:Isn't Elite like that? You run out of fuel or something and your only options are suicide or someone brings you some mana. Yes it is, and its a game mechanic cause its mainly your fault for 1) not looking at the star type you're dropping out with 2) didn't bring a fuel scoop 3) being a noob. Also the parpcorn lately is delicious. Keep it up, thread.

Canine Blues Arooo posted:That's really bizarre. What's the penalty for death in that game? A rebuy, if you don't have enough for a rebuy, % of value of ship, then you get an automatic loan which substitutes for the rebuy. If you're already on a "loan", and neither have the credits for a rebuy, then tough luck. You lose everything and start all over again, but you retain your rep with the factions, rank etc, like a New Game+. e: This is if you died, and you don't have another ship. TLDR: Don't fly without rebuy.
