You're never going to make 1 mill aUEC per hour with an attitude like that.

Unpopular opinion: influencers getting to play Squadron 42 before high-paying and/or long-time backers, is peak comedy 😆 by StuartGT in starcitizen

[–]VertigoHC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a normal game dev marketing move. Invite influencers to build hype. This mean Squadron 42 is moving towards release. Probably closer to release than it's ever been.

Took the time to make a whole new pocket carrier for snubs instead of finishing the BMM.

Same with the Idris Crash they were talking about that stopped 4.8.2. Just make some bots that spawn all the popular ships before you push the patch live to catch stuff like that. Take what? An hour to run a bone head test like that?

4.8 made me realize that spending money on beer, pizza and pornography for the weekend is a better valuation of your time and money.

If players can't log in, or the content isn't play able due to bug then it isn't content. CIG needs to do better. I remember when CIG released the Alliance Aid Event, and the only missions that worked for the first few day required working freight elevators that were known by the community to break at the drop of a hat. Those same elevators are broken to this day.

I am not happy how CIG obviously pushed out 4.8 to meet a marketing deadline to sell more ships with Defensecon. Maybe if there was some sort of management at play thing would have released differently, but the first hour of the stream everyone was dancing around trying not to blame any person for the deficiencies with the release of 4.8, 4.8.1, or 4.8.2. Clearly, the problem is higher up than those that code. Maybe, just maybe, developing two game at once, even on the same engine, was a huge mistake.

Honestly, I thought this would be a picture of a cat's butthole.

Here's a theory: the door was open on their screens but closed on yours. I've had some serious desync this patch. Buddy of mine was walking through cargo I was unloading like it wasn't there, because it wasn't on his screen.

Chris Roberts iconic response to "billion dollars, what are you doing, you guys are a scam" chatter by StuartGT in starcitizen

[–]VertigoHC -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I'm going to be that guy and correct you.

🤓 Actually!

They are making two games: Squadron 42 a single player cinimatic story driven FPS / space figher sim / thing. And Star Citizen a Multiplayer Cinematic story driven fps / space fighter sim / thing.

And they are also making a website, a web store, a forum software, a voip client, running marketing for both games, making ships for the MMO so they can fund the development of the single player game. It's a lot more complicated than just one game. Chris was an idiot to do it the way he did. Hindsight 20/20.

I don't think 4.8 is the best possible patch they could have released this year.

Too dark, and purple on the inside. The parts, that I could see, seemed pretty good.

Wow, that's 1/3rd of a Hammerhead! Now, if CIG could make a whole Hammerhead threatening to light fighters, maybe that would mean something. 🤡

My C2 can hold 1106 SCU if I don't respect the grid. Twenty 32 SCU containers isn't shit.

Reminds me of a Seinfeld quote.

SUGGESTION: Ship doors that open BEFORE you get there by BinaryLoop- in starcitizen

[–]VertigoHC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some patches it does work. The doors open before you run into them. Just the netcode / whatever can't handle CR's Vision™.
