They released a new video about the Mercury and it's development, and there is a portion about the server room that is just so loving BORING. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JnfdU2urcUw&t=129s Seriously, who the gently caress would find this entertaining or worthwhile at all? Who the hell is this designed for? God drat I have no idea why but this server room is making me unreasonably angry.

So I installed this garbage fire with one goal in mind. Making it to the expo. Any guesses on how far I got? All done? Okay here it is: First I walked out of the apartments or hotel or whatever and saw this: Okay, not a good sign. Then I got on the hyperloop (lol) to try and get to the expo. I got in, nearly experienced a seizure because some rear end in a top hat lined the hyperloop with lights and put windows in the car. Okay... Get to the next station and...... The doors won't open! I spent another three trips on this stupid seizureloop for the doors to not open each time I arrived at the expo station. Well, that was fun.

The extended intro on their dumb guide series at least includes this which is....... something. The spitting image of Clarkson cumming.

A bit late, but I finally realized why I like the design of this ship. Reminds me of the kind of design you'd see in Zone of the Enders (and that had some cool lookin mech dudes).

Most advanced ships developed by the best of the best ship manufacturers in the year 2948. But the missiles keep exploding in the tubes as a 'feature'. Alrighty then.

Moochewmoo posted:First, it doesn't look nearly good enough to justify the performance. It's objectively bad. Maybe it's a server thing, maybe a crytek thing, buts it's utter rear end. Maybe it's all rose tinted glasses but I remember Elite running and looking better than this by a country mile. This is what happens when you delay your game for a decade. The tech you used a decade ago is loving rear end in the present. Why do you hurt me like this?

Kavros posted:So the Hammerhead is a giant lump that gathers dust in your ship inventory, something like 99% of the time. It will only be viable whatsoever with npc crew. Most of the level-headed or cynical game players know it, but the bulk of the fat backers just don't seem to want to acknowledge this. To the best of our understanding it seems to be because a lot of what they invest in this game for is for the 'right' to purchase their way into being the social hub that other humans will gravitate to as crew. They kind of don't want to accept that people aren't gonna line up to be an auxiliary for your corvettes and cruisers. They're gonna go out and have their own adventures. This really feels like the real motivation behind a lot of SC nerds. They're really just looking for a way to buy into friendship in their space game. Kavros posted:So their Idea Man energy gets wrapped up in all these big adventures they really think they're gonna have when this game releases a product. Here's what I'm going to be doing with my idris. Here's what we'll do in our javelin. We have a company with a 42 page mission statement that we built and a founding ethos involving protocol for addressing senior officers of the guild, and IC conflict resolution protocol for breaches of Org operating procedure in-universe. Etc. The part of this that is the most hilarious is that... the space game with political & personal intrigue and such already exists. It's called EVE Online and it's really loving great at being able to roleplay the space role you want to be. I guess you can't walk around in your ship tho...

trucutru posted:In a game the developer can indeed have NFTs that are actual proof of ownership for certain item but that's just because a centralized authority (the developer) is behind it. Except for the part that is most important to me that they can't answer: loving why? Why should I or anyone else care that you can prove you once decided to place a 'stake' in some dumb bullshit mean anything? Especially if it's a video game hat or something. I guess the answer should be: "because it's a good way to extract money from idiots".

I'm late to the financials talk, but their total employee headcount is 695, while their salary expenditures are 43.950M. That's an average of $63237.41 per employee, and this includes admin. Their employees are being shafted so hard lmao

MedicineHut posted:Either that or they really have less employees than reported. Maybe counting some of the contracted external ones. Also the staff figure is year end, so average during the year would be lower than the 695 reported. I hope they're counting contractors because even if we give them the generosity of using the employee headcount from 2019 with their 2020 expenditures we're still sitting at ~$72000 which still makes me sad.
