Oh, I think I've bought access to this thing many many years ago. Can I install something and/or play it?

Where's the gameplay Crobear?

No, you don't understand staggered development.

There will be two dev channels, each of six months. So 2 times twice per year, 4 times.

So, here's what I understand:

Indeed, movie quality off the shelf Vader costume is about $5k on average, yes. But that's from a pre-made mold and the assumption is you're an average sized dude.

So the question becomes how can you inflate a cosplay costume's price to stupidly high levels of expense?

There are three ways I know of for sure.

1) You hire a professional Hollywood costume shop to make it on rush. Not some independent crafts(wo)man ahead of time. Valuable time, and quality unionized labor. You need something good quickly? That's going to cost money. No no, I don't think you- Oh, you'd like to give us that much money. Okay, sure. Hey boys, we got a moneybags order, let's get it done and then get drunk.

2) Custom tailoring. You are not using any pre-made molds for form-fitting parts. You have to cast and measure the "talent". That requires new work that cost-saving measures of prior prefabs cannot help you with.

3) Revisions. I mean, this is the Roberts we're talking about. The first go-at-it is never accepted.

Now, the question of "Is it Sandi's costume alone, or the collective price tag of all the costumed folks" still has to be answered. There's a vagueness in sources that leaves that portion un-clarified. I'm still researching it.

An attachment cause a client crash?

Okay thread, here's a math problem for you.

There are 5 caves per entire loving planet. They are not sign-posted in any way. They are approximately 10 meters wide. Let's assume that the entire server population, like say 1,000 players, was all simultaneously on a single planet searching for caves. Each of them can search an area that is maybe 500 meters wide, at a speed of ~200mph. The planet is roughly the size of the moon.

What is the probability that they would find even one? What is the probability that CIG didn't even release this feature?

What is this hardon for punishing lawbreakers before anyone even knows how pirate/criminal gameplay will be profitable? Yes, sure, it should be hard to be a lawbreaker, but isn't it supposed to be an supported career choice?

Nope, it's just a Billy Mays beard.

His obsession with being anally penetrated with a girl's tentacles is also pretty normal, I say.
