have they made the tiny fighter on constellation work out of said constellation yet, or is it still a paperweight in there?

i don't really doubt chris actually did program wc1, back then a bit of game coding knowledge and some pixel art was all it took to make a basic game, and wc1 was not actually 3d with models and poo poo like elite/xwing etc. at 21 any nerd with a few weeks of time can probably do that, and then it's just a question of getting some artists to make sprites and pictures that'll actually sell.

hell, pixel art indie games still sell in that way today. indie isn't good enough for the spacesim genious christ motherfucking roberts tho, gotta do tripple AAA

EA did learn a big lesson from christ robets tho: The only thing they showed so far is a stupid live action trailer, and all the screenshots are just screenshots from that.

There's no gameplay, not even any bullshots, just a big cinematic trailer lmao.

Seems like Jeremy Clarkson, best known for being one of the hosts of Top Gear and talking about cars in a very authoritative British accent (also did VO on one of the Forza games), and also known for being a total rear end in a top hat in general and getting fired from said hosting gig for punching one the show's producers.

oh lol i remember that debacle yeah.

Yes, we must get rid of Jeremy Clarkson because he "doesn't think much of Star Citizen" and replace him with someone well-known for appreciating Star Citizen--a woman.

the mythical replication layer.

it's absolutely insane what 300 trillion manhours of opensource development sponsored by amazon, google, et al. has done for scalability in the interwebs

i have an x65 and i doubt there's a better stick available on market. or even a "just as good" stick, since x65 apparently didn't sell enough and got cancelled

and i got it on a clearance sale for 199 bux lmao

Thoatse posted:

My G29 was amazing... for figuring out if simracing was fun enough to me to be worth buying a nice one then clawed my way up the food chain and each upgrade was light years better than the previous. From g29 to CSL (og ps4 version) to CSW2.5 to CSL DD to Simagic Alpha Mini where I'm currently at. Probably I'm just dumb and should have kept my G29 and spent $14k on a sweet fort to put it in

a g25 was already over my budget at a bit over 300 eurobux since unlike flying i don't race a lot, but it came with pedals i now also use for flight simming and a 7-speed shifter, lmao at spending 650 for just a wheelbase

then again, this is the star citizen thread

no there's literally nothing on the market that does force sensing like x65. it's the only stick that lets you have high precision + high range of movement at the same time by setting a high max force

there's 3rd party aftermarket mod for warthog joysticks that costs like $500 and you have to assemble the stick yourself, and it's not even any better, it's expensive because he sells 3 units per year

also, the playroom guy clearly lacked cash for a $1000 wheel after spending 30k on the room :v:
