Me normally: games should focus more on physics simulation, they haven’t evolved past the PS360 era and in some cases regressed. How is it that a 2006 Bethesda game is ahead of the curve in this compared to modern titles?
Me after seeing this video: Please make every object stactic and uninteractible.
I vaguely recall they went to great efforts to develop a proper flight model for the ships, realised that combat was just flying past other ships at speed and none of the ships were very flyable because the models were developed without thinking how they would move, and so they stuck a bunch of thrusters on everything to make it like a bad imitation of WW2 dogfighting
I see Chris Robert’s retirement fund shows no signs of stopping. It’s unlikely it will anytime soon anyway. The other day I saw a clip of last year’s CitizenCon with Chris entering the stage, with a giant ass CitizenCon logo behind him, and the crowd going apeshit when he appeared and screaming: “Chris! Chris! Chris! Chris! universe.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Trump in order to secure the g*mer vote should promise to finish Star Citizen, its probably more realistic than Biden promise to cure cancer
they’ve spent most of the money a long time ago. since then they’ve been on the death spiral, in order to keep going they have made stretch goals ane ship packs that are increasing the scope, therefore increasing the budget, which they need money for, down the spiral they go.
i don’t follow the game but my impression is that the huge amount of money they raised is shackling them to the wrong technical decisions they made many years ago. they can’t start over otherwise that would be millions of donor money wasted. if this was a normal company they would’ve either cancelled the project or salvaged what they can and start over.
it also looks like most of the experienced people quit due to mismanagement and most of the staff are new hires. all i can say is i wouldn’t wanna work on a project like that.
I remember in 2014 there was a lot of hype around star citizen so I decided to check it out on youtube. However all I could find were videos of middle-aged men soy facing while walking around an empty hanger. That was the moment I realised star citizen fans are completely delusional
The cool end of that demographic plays MechWarrior Online instead and basically subsidizes it for the F2P players.
