for you

Imagine being Sandi in that scene and having to be all like "damn, Chris Roberts, you fuckin' fine,all sexy with your wool sweater and horrific caterpillar triple chin. I would totally fly a Idris with you, both my character and the real me." when all she really wants to do is suck off another German Shepard in her dressing room. Like seriously imagine having to be Sandi and not only sit in that chair while Chris Roberts flabs his disgusting fat arms in front of you,the favorable lighting barely concealing the jumbo eyebrows and deadlocked-autistic face, and just sit there, take after take, AtV after AtV, while he perfected that construct of bullshit and lies. Not only having to tolerate his "chubby" fucking visage but his egomanic attitude as everyone on set tells him he's STILL GOT IT and DAMN,CHRIS ROBERTS LIES LIKE *THAT*??because they're not the ones who have to sit there and watch his fucked up fucking gremlin face contort into types of grimaces you didn't even know existed before that day. You've been fucking nothing but a healthy mix of Bulldog and Husky and later alleged RSI staff for your ENTIRE CAREER coming straight out of the breeders in Germany. You've never even seen anything this fucking disgusting before, and now you swear you can taste the sweat that's breaking out on his fat flab stomach as he sucks it in to demonstrate landing animations suggestively at you,smugly assured that you are enjoying the opportunity to get paid to sit there and revel in his "ingenious (for that is what he calls himself)" autism, the autism he worked so hard for with personal yes-men and whale-backers in the previous years. And then that fat fuck Ben calls for another episode,and you know you could suck off every single person in this room before the studio security could put you down, but you sit there and endure, because you're fucking Sandi. You're not going to lose your future bestiality porn-star career over this.Just bear it. Hide your face and bear it.

Disregarding the bugs, its actually pretty neat to have an entire interior of your own ship that you can walk around in.

lmaoo

no, the ships spazing out when you exit them on a planet is pretty common. Sometimes they straight up disappear and sometimes they get launched away. Previously they would just launch off the planet with the old flight physics but ever since the introduced hover mode the ships just stay near the planet and blow themselves up.

It's sad how much this game missed it's mark. It's a fantastic tech demo, but there's literally nothing to do outside of picking up macguffins. The main story should really be hand-crafted instead of randomly generated like everything else, especially now that surface structures are in. At present, there's no real reason to ever do combat outside of the ship.

It's not about how it looks, it's about what it does. And that is being literally the only game on the market to deliver a 100% realistic space combat.

The simulation resolution isn't even high enough to detail shit like collision and damage beyond basic locational stuff.
Trash.

Every ship has permanent insurance during the alpha.

The game hasn't worked with ultra wide monitors since they began releasing alphas.
The latest fucks up the entire ship UI.
They focus more on creating ships instead of fixing issues with basic functionality for any game.

in what sense?

I’m going to wait to buy it on sale for $1 with all of its content. Course this game won’t be done till my new born son is putting me in diapers.

That's like calling the world in Minecraft equally as impressive as the one in RDR2 or BotW.

They've had this bug for years. I remember watching in their presentation in 2016 and seeing something similar happen. Docking and landing just randomly makes shit spaz out and/or explode. This is a nearly game breaking bug that hasn't been fixed in AT LEAST 3 fucking years.

As a fan of Jurassic World Evolution it’s been extremely painful waiting months for them to put out content that should have been in the game at release and now an entire year later we are finally getting closer to the game it should have been but even then certain design choices have fucked it in the long run. I can’t imagine doing this for 8 years with no end in sight, paying tons of money, all the while never actually getting to play the game.

There's a reason Bethesda games and games like Star Citizen are insanely buggy, their engines are extremely complex and actually calculate most things cheap.
In Bethesda games for example, NPCs are actual characters with "lives", a real inventory, character data regarding their appearance, etc. The world is filled with thousands of entities, lootable items that are actually physical and not just static props and it's all persistent. You drop a dildo from your mod that cell will retain that dildo no matter where you are in the world. The scale of their games in terms of technical depth is far higher than almost all AAA games, which is a reason for their bugginess and reluctance to create a new engine as that would be a monumental task.

Why the fuck would anyone ever wipe their own ass again if they could get a robotoilet that automatically did it for them?

this post is true zoomer. Nevermind that a game literally isn't done after 8 years and one of the largest budgets ever, lets just focus on the aesthetics.

I backed it with like $130,
the progress looks great but holy shit if it isn't slow.
I'm not gonna defend that shit, because they're clearly in some sort of development hell.

By the time the game is finally ready (in 5-10 years) it's going to be outdated as fuck and probably forgotten.

I'm patient and the money I spent wasn't "that" bad, but I still get why people call it a scam

based

no, anything. also, SC has a static coord system, not that it matters. if you want a retard solution, it's basically player.transform.parent = whatevership.transform, but in actuality you just set a relation system where one object sets its translation in relation to another(or it's simulated gravitational field). as for landing on the planet the easiest retard solution would be something like "let the player be affected by planet's gravity only now" and just solve for local collisions with the ship.

>Game runs like absolute ass on a farily moderate build
I used to be able to run the game on my 3570k 970. I had a great time going to Kareah or whatever it's called now and jousting over there with other retards. I used to get around 50 FPS or so back in the 2.6 era. I'm lucky to get 24 FPS now. Shit sucks.

Each ship has its own physics grid, which is on a spherical planet with its own physics grid which is located in space which has its own physics grid with 64bit precision. Each ship is made up of many components which are their own physical entities, unlike other games that have one vehicle and every "accessory" (chair, guns, doors, etc.) merged in into one entity. This is extremely hard on the server which is why you see clipping and general jank when the server bogs down.
Go attempt that in Unity and report back.

You're a dunce if you think Starfield won't just be TES/FO reskinned with space shit and endless loading screens.

bro, no game keeps that data on hand for the entire runtime, you keep shit in a sphere around the player on hand and cache the rest. nobody gives a fuck about a dildo 2 km away, so the game doesn't even consider it for anything other than "the player is close, enable this".

I bought this shit almost when it was first announced and I've never played it. Downloading now, only 40gbs of patches left

But the entire thing is a mess of cheating and shortcuts that at the best of times is barely functional.
NPCs aren't actual characters with lives, they're actors that follow a glorified list routine and automatically teleport to where they're supposed to be half of the time. They have inventories that reset regularly and many containers and various other cells also get reset sporadically and aren't safe to store your loose items in for long periods of time.
It's not technological depth it's the wizard of Todd trying to convince you to spend another $60 on already dated horseshit.

>posting ChoDE on Yea Forums
Come on, Yea Forums is full of retarded consolebabies who never played actual games. Pearls before swine.

I'm not that guy but I think you're missing the point. That game seems like a good simulation (though probably not as deep as aurora) but Star Citizen people aren't looking for some sort of perfect simulation. Thats not whats important to them so bragging about how perfect your simulator is won't really matter. They want a game where they can walk around in their ships and explore planets and have WW2 style dog fights in space, all with nice graphics and modern comforts. That game of yours might be infinitely better in terms of simulating space combat or whatever, but they'll never accept it.

Space Engineers is a static map with immobile planets where as Star Citizen actually has moving celestial bodies and everything is in motion relative to something else. Space Engineers is also one of the buggiest games I have ever played in my life. One of the most common bugs I experienced when playing it in multiplayer was how it failed to do a good job at exactly what you're claiming it does, and players on board moving ships would randomly collide with the ship they were in, and since the ship was moving fast relative to the 100% static map, would instakill them with collision damage.

i refuse to believe that, first thing you do when prototyping is set object poolers and such.

It also has solid gameplay, story, campaign, and is fun.

I've got a 21:9 and it works fine for me?

>i refuse to believe that
>first thing you do when prototyping
They did literally none of that. They made assets first and then did R&D for basic tech.

They have completed clientside OCS, just not server side shit meaning the server is calculating literally everything happening in the "universe" hence the trash FPS on populated servers.
I believe their solution is to eventually assign individual seamless servers based on areas and then in the far future dynamic servers where needed, like 10 on one planet if the load calls for it. Whether that happens on not, dunno.

You realize your manual transmission is a greatly simplified version of early systems that were made easier over time for the sake of the user right?

Things get streamlined and easier as time goes on. That is the way of things.

I assume you're not accessing this through a fucking dos prompt you fucking ludite.

>Each ship has its own physics grid, which is on a spherical planet with its own physics grid which is located in space which has its own physics grid with 64bit precision. Each ship is made up of many components which are their own physical entities, unlike other games that have one vehicle and every "accessory" (chair, guns, doors, etc.) merged in into one entity.
You just described Kerbal Space Program, which was made in Unity.

No, neither game is worth it. Stay the fuck away from both. ED is an incomplete game, launched as completed, with DLC that is required to be purchased, and so many microtransactions you'd think it was a gacha. SC on the other hand is a perpetually in development game with (I swear they're intentionally) new bugs and game breaking issues every day, rife with pay 2 win mechanics, and is still on a single incomplete star system 8 fucking years later.

kerbal space program, new X4 iirc, no man's sky, homeworld has moving ships docking to other moving ships, any game with moving platforms, gw2 tower of madness, etc etc.
listen, this isn't difficult. it's not rocket science where you have to solve an n-body problem. implementing artificial gravity isn't new or difficult, same with planet gravity or any round body gravity - flash games did that shit when kongregate was standing up.

I don't remember the Rock Paper Scissors update fixing a single fucking bug, and it only introduced more. Some players on my server had to play with their sound muted because the new ship mass -> thruster noise pitch shifting system was bugged and would randomly just start blowing out peoples fucking eardrums until they restarted their clients. It was an interesting method, though.

The benefits of a dedicated headphone amplifier. Good audio and I can avoid shit like that.

There are not going to be any gameplay. This game is not selling gameplay in the first place.

I don't know why this meme gets pushed so often. There's zero complexity to it because every single item in the world is abstracted away in the world. It's literally just "object: { id, x, y, z }" with implementation that references a pick up function, a move/grab function, and a render function that inherits collision rules. This is basic shit, this is not fucking nobel prize level science and programming and you idiotic shit-lickers need to do your research before you defend one of the laziest devs in the industry.

No. Elite Dangerous is pretty ok. The dude's complaints are valid, but I wouldn't warn people with an interest in the genre to stay away from it. But then again I'm the type of person who enjoyed Euro Truck Simulator so I don't mind spending dozens of hours carting around space tourists to buy a combat ship that I'll use for maybe 10 hours.

I have mixed feelings because I have friends who actually wasted more than 100 bucks on this piece of shit.

None of the planets, stations, stars, etc in No Mans Sky moved. The entire universe had one single frame of reference. There wasn't a lot of room for physics bugs to show their face.

Stop comparing Elite Dangerous to Euro Truck Simulator. There are no similarities. ED is literally a loading screen simulator followed by a floating through empty space simulator.

I had a friend who was a huge Mass Effect and Star Citizen fan and basically considers the latter to be the holy grail of space games.

Oh shit I remember how mad I was each solar system only had 3/4 planets max and none of them were in orbit.

Outer Wilds on the other hand had a perfectly functioning solar system. I'd take that over the explorable universe of NMS

Let's count stagnant, in alpha, compromised, and broken as 50% done (extremely generous, but I don't want to get more autistic with this)
That means the game is roughly 45% done
If we also assume all the money received so far has been spent on the game (it hasn't), they keep up the current pace (they won't), and there is no more feature creep (LMAO), then means we can expect total development time to be just shy of 15 years, lasting until 2027.
If it took them 231 mil to reach this point, we can assume they'll consume around 510 mil by the time they're done.

Jokes aside: isn't one of Creatbryo's strengths that (its immense shittiness aside) it's immensely moddable in the first place? Wouldn't it be even harder to make a modern and stable engine that ALSO is easily and thoroughly accommodating to mods?
Also, we should take into consideration that a brand new engine would mean that modders would have to learn a new one from scratch. While it'd be true that in the long run it's better to move on to something better, there would be a significant downtime as mods and mod tools caught up to the new system.

The best shit was the fucking water. All the physics in cry engine were tied to a sea level that had to be present in game, so what did RSI do? They just put the water level down really really low on the Y axis, so most people wouldn't encounter it, but it was actually possible for you to fly down too low and drown inside your ship underwater, and have it blow up.

That's true, but does anyone seriously expect modern DOOM to be moddable?
It really does seem like Zeni is doubling down on shit like that. I fully expect TES games in the future to require Creation Club, meaning if a modder insists on going the paid route, that's the only way to get their mod.

At recent QuakeCon Marty said NuuM's unmoddability is caused by some technical decisions they made early in development. I blame consoles.
He also said that new engine has significantly more potential to be moddable although it's a long-term goal and certainly no modding tools will be released on launch.

For the hacking tool to just work. They claimed it was a "bug" and then cut it in half.

Attached: death smoking.gif (500x279, 2.38M)

The credits are earned in game, you cannot buy the alpha credits. But you can buy credits for the final game. But the problem is that someone with a starter ship will take hours upon hours to earn the required credits.

Their kickstarter got only $12,716, less than what average whale has spent so far on Star Citizen. I'm impressed how it looks given the low budget.

It's amazing what happens when you don't spend everything on coffee machines and doors

Coffee machines are serious business.

More like a lucrative business.

$12k is pretty much at least a year of living comfortably in slavland, so i see how those low-goal 1ma kickstarters can work

Credits bought in the game will be (last I heard) capped heavily to make it a "You want some game cash if you didn't play for a few weeks so you don't need to worry about paying your in-game upkeep costs or grind " kinda thing not a "Buy the credits you need for a new ship and kit it out with gear".

The game is designed to take time - that's why its more of a virtual world simulation. We've yet to see how that balancing will be, but from the very beginning there are some core tenets - there is no "best" ship and there's no "profession hierarchy" where your'e supposed to race for the "best trading ship" vs the "best fighter" vs the "best mining ship" and only care about really progressing if you have the "top" one. Even more expensive ships for different tasks are more sidegrades - ie there's MISC Hull E is a huge motherfucking trading ship capable of hauling tons of cargo, but its basically a container ship with near to zero defenses. You'd better stay in shipping lanes IF you can even afford to operate the Hull E to begin with, not to mention hiring guards as an escort. Conversely, the Banu Merchantman isn't quite as big, but has more defenses itself,. is more mobile, and can be engaged in a different sort of trade - white, grey, or black market, vs a Hull E style container ship. Both of them could be ways to make a fortune trading... and so could running a Constellation Phoenix or a Drake Herald with secret data to sell, or an Endeavor operating a drug lab out in zero-security space if you're brave enough...

The game is supposed to have roles for every ship and even "cheaper" ships are supposed to be useful - fuck, right now there's a "News Van" variant of a cheap ship model thats the only dedicated news-broadcaster around! This is the kind of game where things are supposed to take time - from travel, to earning cash for a new ship etc... to give the world scope etc. Its not designed to spend to get around that even allowed!

If you're talking about Russia - you can live comfortably there spending less than half of that a year.

It's trainwiz, I'm pretty sure he's american.

this looks kinda fun tbqh

They uncapped the credits, you can buy as much as you want, but you can only buy so much at a time.
>The game is designed to take time
No, the game is designed to make you buy ships. There are absolutely best ships as there are ships which are explicit steps up in combat, in hauling and trading.
>The game is supposed to have roles for every ship and even "cheaper" ships are supposed to be useful
Is this pasta I'm responding to? Yeah, ships have roles to the point that you'll need a billion ships if you want to do different things in game. Nobody gives a fuck about a news-broadcaster because even CIG doesn't know how the fuck they'll implement that gameplay.

This is so stupid, you dont even have a game loop and care about developing the ship interior? this game is pure scam

Assets were done before major engine components were even considered. They've redone some ships like four or five times now.

Typically the small $10k to $25k kickstarters are one or two man weekend projects in addition to their day job, where that money is being used to purchase assets.

There's a lot of coders out there who have zero artistic ability, so they have no choice but to partner up or contract out the art. It gets expensive if you want it to look even halfway decent.

>tfw some beta from here bought my package (the ship that looks like a sports car) and I refunded it a year later for its full value to myself by playing their support before they got anal about refunds

>anal about refunds
That's a cute way of saying they're permanently denying refunds by transferring you over to a """"REFUND SPECIALIST"""" that literally doesn't exist.

Credits are not "uncapped", they're not balanced at all as of yet because we don't have a complete economic universe sim as of yet. You won't be able to buy an unlimited amount of credits at launch/live etc.. be it at once or over time. They simply have yet to decide if that will be based on how the in-game economy shapes up once all the pieces are there.

Make you "buy ships" (or otherwise acquire them) by playing the game perhaps, not buy forking out real money. There are "steps up" but there isn't one terminal point even within one task type, much less a single "best" ship overall. Everything is situational. People flying a Defender, Hurricane, Vanguard, Spectre, and Hornet are all flying non-starter level fighters, but there's no "best" and even someone with a Gladius (fighter from 1 tier lower) could compete. Not to mention the costs of upkeep, equipment etc.. on each.

There are lots of general-use ships in game, and you're encouraged to build a fleet. Lots of earlier tier and even some later tier ships are, or can be customized to be very versatile. Sure, if you want highly specialized ships you'll need to buy them but you can still take a contract for say.. personnel transport with tons of kinds of ships, but if you want to literally operate a commercial spaceline you can buy a Genesis (which is good for being a starliner and not much else) . And they already talked about the news van thing, given the way communications both within and between systems will take time, there is a gameplay element there . Recording events and broadcasting it, etc.. will be a game dynamic so someone covering a pirate attack can make credits that way, or a commission to go and cover the latest race/sport event.

Credits are uncapped and have been for years. You used to only be able to buy a set amount before you could no longer buy any more period. CIG realized that they would lose a potential source of income so now you can buy credits until the cows come home, but again, you can only buy X per day.
>Not by forking over real money
Stop damage controlling them releasing a new better ship every month.
>There are "steps up"
Get the fuck out of here nigger. A sabre will shit all over a Titan, or even a hornet.
>Everything is situational
Yes, and if you want to be in a certain situation (mining) you need to PAY REAL MONEY TO EVEN MINE WITH THE SHIP
>There are lots of general use ships in game
There are no general use ships, because specialized tasks require specific ships. You will never have any ship that is multipurpose.

>Recording events and broadcasting will be a game dynamic
No it won't.

This why a JRPG from 1998 still looks better than most indieshit.

ART MATTERS

What is realistic spacecombat anyway? Nobody here on Earth can answer that.

But I don't think its WW2 dogfighting in space.

>They focus more on creating ships instead of fixing issues with basic functionality for any game.
Because making more ships = more money for them. MWO for instance was in a terribly sorry state for years with very little content but they continually kept making more mechs that are just blobs of hardpoints without many defining characteristics that they could charge 15-45 dollars for.

>100% realistic space combat.

This game has ruined marriages. Guys were spending thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars on this game and hiding it from their wives, pulling money out of college funds and retirement savings for this.

So what if I am? Does that offend you?

>pay $10000 real money for a digital spaceship
>it bugs out and blows itself up
Money well spent!

>NPCs are actual characters with "lives", a real inventory, character data regarding their appearance,
None of this is complicated or even impressive and an NPC's "life" is a dozen or so paths to walk and points to perform a meaningless action in in random intervals.

this is the most pseudo-intellectual thing I've read about game development in a few months, congratulations

That's not how development works. It's been in development for so long they could have had regular content freezes to focus on fixing bugs.

The cultists don't understand this and they think real development is as follows
>Develop something
>Ignore bugs because it will create more bugs
>So continue developing until you get to beta where you iron out bugs
I wish I was joking.

Don't worry, it has lifetime insurance :^)))

No, no normal game does this.

All I've seen is Mandalore's roundup of the project, what else has happened since then?

Yeah it does, cuz you sound like a fag.

An infinite amount of shit. Mandalore did a follow up stream about it and it still doesn't cover up the clogged up shit they're in right now.

I'm forever single so I spent like $200 on SC over a bunch of years slowly upgrading to my dream ship, the Mercury.

The game is still buggy but the progress is actually promising. 8 years seems like a lot, but most games take around that long if they are being built from the ground up, especially considering there wasn't even a studio before they started.

Rockstar took that long to make GTAV and yet it's on a smaller scale than SC and there was already an established studio with a bunch of similar games under its belt.

I hope no one in these threads is a big fan of Starsector because that's a fucking 2D game that is taking over a decade to finish.

You don't get your money's worth out of a shitty, broken, mess that isn't even a full product no matter how hard you convince yourself, you nut.

so your saying...you have NEVER had fun with a any janky game EVER. ur missing out on a lot of stuff user

What would you consider a full product?
Besides the quarterly resets the game is playable but buggy.

yes please

>Preemptively preparing yourself mentally for the game to just shut down at any moment before proper launch by trying to convince yourself that despite not getting what you paid for, you got your money's worth
This is the true cult like autism.
>What would you consider a full product
Well let's start with them giving what they sold.
>The game is playable
Yes, "playable". Still with nothing to do, tier 0 implementations of core features (many of which there aren't any) and a flight model that needs to be redone every 6 months. With major technology still missing from the game, I question if we'll ever get anything resembling the full product that Roberts the snake oil salesman conned 300 million dollars out of people for.

>Still with nothing to do

You can do missions and grind for a bunch of ships that you can buy in game already. The only reason most people are not interested in doing this is the quarterly resets.

>You can do missions
The missions are either broken (quest givers don't even respond to you like that one woman) or they're mindless bullshit like go into an asteroid field to kill the same broken NPCs.
>grind for a bunch of ships
It's sad that you thought this was a good response to prove my statement wrong.

You're a fucking nigger retard, software development is nothing like building a fucking house. Yes you're absolute ignorance makes me mad.

The irony of this post

>Besides the quarterly resets the game is playable but buggy.
As a person that was $600 deep before refunding in the face of Chris' autism, no. Its not playable. Its a fucking mess.

There's nothing currently in the game that works right, and even if it DID, the content is so repetitive and boring there's nothing to keep you occupied for more than a few days.

Wasn't this fundamentally the problem with Elite Dangerous? They gave players a big sandbox where you could make money trading, mining, fighting, whatever, but it turns out a lot of players just get bored when you put them in a big sandbox and tell them to have fun. Hopefully Star Citizen will have learned from that and taken steps to deal with it somehow, but it's an easy trap to fall into when so many gamers tell you they want complete freedom to do anything.

>follow up stream
Link to this? Is this it?: youtu.be/3slnXcQmtV8

Who's watching avorion?

>the content is so repetitive and boring there's nothing to keep you occupied for more than a few days.

So basically its in the same state as Elite Dangerous.

i don't follow this game outside of its kikestarter infamy
what's happening here?

>You can do missions and grind for a bunch of ships that you can buy in game already.
The prices of the larger ships make them unfeasible to purchase to anyone that isn't running minmax haul flights with a Catpillar.

Currency resets every patch too, so you'll have to do it all over again even if you did sink 100 hours into buying a ship.

>Wasn't this
Yes, and it's still the problem with that game. Chris has learned nothing from its faults, and even worse, he's doubling down on its faults because of the whole pay 2 win with ships deal they have going on.

Actually yes, and thats one of my concerns about the final game. There is a lot to add from here out though, and I feel like the ability to exist outside of (or even inside of) the ship will open the doors to a lot of new things that keep it interesting.

It's like ED but worse in every way only you can get out of your ship.

Based.
Aside from technical aspects, I'd add that the NPC's in Bethesda games and Oblivion especially fall in the uncanny valley. They kind of go about routines, more so than a lot of other games would, but they do so in such a way that's so far removed from how any real person would behave that it comes off as goofy. Majora's Mask's NPCs feel more real and have more character than anyone in Oblivion.

I think it's a fair comparison. If one faulty component relies on another faulty component, and fixing one completely breaks the other, then "bug fixing" can turn into rewriting the project.
