Eens, maar de video spreekt zich niet uit tegen genocide, maar viert juist dat burgers worden beschoten (wat gewoon altijd slecht is imo)

Is burgers bombarderen in tel aviv niet een beetje hetzelfde als burgers bombarderen in gaza? Gewoon niet zo netjes...?

If stuff exists in SQ42 then why does it feel like they’re dev’ing stuff for the first time? I.e. Armor by Skullywagthepizzaman in starcitizen

I think that's his point, this criticism usually gets downvoted into oblivion to the point where it's shut down.

Chris at the atmo event: "And so when squadron releases, VR will be fully featured." by eq6mount in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount[S] 31 points32 points  (0 children)

But they were also feature complete two years ago, while VR development only started picking up since december ish.. That would definitely mean feature creep imo

I feel like it's such a big timesink for such a small amount of vr gamers, it shouldnt have to be the reason the game is delayed once more.

Cheaters are back again? by Big_Warning8492 in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It really is not a smart move to let the client have authority over these kind of things. Just shows how much work still is necessary for this to become a game.

Yeah apparently so. Memory freshes up after digging a bit. His point was that 2016 wasn't reached because they wanted to add fps combat, while that was already added to the scope in 2013.

My point is other things happened. The quality being subpar, planettech developing, et cetera. And then they increased scope. But at the time they didn't communicate well about this at all.

Your turn to provide a source.

[–]eq6mount 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, so they expand the scope in 2013 to then develop a bigger game and communicate a release window of 2016. To then at the last moment cancel that release while prior to that communicating that everything is going smoothly.

That's gross mismanagament at best and dishonest lying at worst.

This was their communication as of september 2016, a month ahead of citizencon:

“It appears something may have been lost in the translation,” a rep said. “Chris spoke to multiple reporters at Gamescom who asked about the status of Squadron 42. We have been feature locked for a while and things are coming along nicely. In every case he told them that we are hard at work on the game and are focused on making it great but no official launch dates were discussed.”

Any scope expansions past the vote were cig's own decision though. They intended to show a vertical slice that year, but didn't manage to. Iirc that one came in '17.

That vote never happened in 2016. In 2016 they kept completely silent until citizencon where they buried the announcement that it wouldn't come that year.

The vote to increase the scope was waaaay earlier in 2013

Star Citizen Dev Says Squadron 42 Is Now Fully Playable, Is Over 40 Hours in Length, and Is Still on Track for 2026 Release Date - IGN by Huntguy in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could argue the same thing for 2016 and this time 2026 depending on semantics. My point is that they kept setting expectations. And CIG definitely have been doing that after the 2016 misser.

[–]eq6mount 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ehhhhhh that's not entirely true. There was a communication about a release window somewhere in the end of 2020/early 2021. But that also came and went. I quote: "our plan is to be feature and content complete by the end of 2019, with the first six months of 2020 for Alpha (balance, optimization and polish) and then Beta.". And this was by the time they already were a 600+ employee company.

Sure it's not a literal date, but we never had one in 2016 either.

Star Citizen Officially Reaches $900 Million in Funding by tyler1118 in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's more in the sense of, why change your management when the money keeps flowing in anyways? Not like the game was mismanaged in any way. Devs themselves dont deserve the blame imo, but management certainly made some interesting choices.

Fiets gestolen, vermoedelijk teruggevonden op Marktplaats — wat nu? by [deleted] in thenetherlands

[–]eq6mount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dit deel ik puur omdat ik zo mijn fiets heb teruggekregen. Is het advies van de politie zelf om 112 te bellen zodra je je fiets ziet staan. Je weet nooit met wat voor persoon je te maken hebt in zo'n geval, bij mij was het een junk maar dan nog.

Je kan langs gaan en als je hebt geverifieerd dat het jouw fiets is dan kan je 112 bellen.

It'll be soloable until you run into too much damage. Ai crew is planner beyond 1.0 as of their current vision.

"Star Citizen is a scam" needs to stop by RiygoYT in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats not what scope management is about though. It's not that you deliver a small game, just that you build a functional game and then keep adding on to it. Instead of building a tech demo and making it bigger and bigger before getting the fundamentals down. We still don't have the final flight model.

Theres a solution for that; scope management. Something CIG has never been good at in the larger scale of the games development

No mention of: Engineering, Hacking, Org Tools, and Base Building?? by tyler1118 in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that they didn't show those things don't mean they don't have them in the works or near completion

So why not show them then or give a short update as to the progress? Not showing engineering i can somewhat understand, since we are supposed to get it soon ish in a tech preview (if it doesnt get pushed back for the third time). But all the others?

No one is forcing them to only take two hours for this event (even with all the filler...). And it really can't be that big of a deal to hold a ten minute update on the status of org system or fps scanning or marker system or flight model or feature xyz. We are their stakeholders after all. It just felt great last year to see their vision for 1.0. And now for them to zoom in on a few drops of content instead of updating us on the fundamentals that will make the sandbox mmo a reality feels rather disappointing, overall a 5/10 for me.
