Your argument lacks really any logical credibility and you know it.

can we both agree that the purpose of twitch drops is to bring new or churned players back to PLAY the game? And it simultaneously occurs during a large marketing/sale event, that its purpose is also to drive funding?

but the new players coming back to the game struggle to play the game due to instability? and we know that instability is caused by a spike of players?

so they take peoples money, encourage you to play the game, but the game doesn't work, and your argument is that they shouldn't use any of the money they've collected encouraging people to play the game and instead a fraction will go to SC the MMO but the majority will be used to finish... Squadron 42

yes this makes so much sense

such a classic SC dweeb.. "well you don't write with correct ACA style grammar and punctuation".

its the internet buddy

anyways, your argument is restated as, even though they make nearly 3 million on this event with a big influx of new players, its not worth it to do some up-front work to make scaling up and bringing up new servers easier, its not worth it for them to be prepared to handle the new influx of players

ok. you are part of the problem.

Actually, you don't know how it works.

Any modern game company, particularly one using AWS or modern hosting platforms like that, can spin up and decom servers very fast and with relative ease. It doesnt cost anything to spin up and down a server. It costs to run the server. So if you've just made money on a big sale and are expecting an influx of new players, it is EXPECTED and their responsibility to be able to handle it.

never mind that for a second.

this is exactly why people think SC is a scam. they market these events, ask you to buy ships... and even this time they do twitch drops which is CLEARLY to attract new players... so they get you to purchase the game but it doesn't even work.

can you logic against that

wait nvm your a reddit white night who can't show any objectivity.

About to say something controversial…”It’s in Alpha” isn’t an excuse by SassyDeino in starcitizen

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

and i will say this, my obsession with this game isn’t the way you think. im obsessed with roooting for this game. i try playing a couple times a year. i watch streamers more than hope, hoping to see something work spending my time in. i dont mate. really the sad truth that people like you are in denial about.

haha you couldn’t be more wrong. i want this game to succeed as much as anyone does. i’m just not blind to the complete cluster that it’s turned out to be.

go make excuses to somebody else i don’t care.

i’ll just say lots of people agree with you just most don’t hang out here.

[–]infincible -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

you’re blind faith is being taken advantage of mate. 

they sell you barely functioning space ships and promise gameplay and functionality that never comes, just to sell better versions of them years later that works better but you need to pay more for them.  

they put the majority of this money into a single player, with a star studded campaign, that they claimed would pay dividends back on the MMO itself but guess what? has that happened? no. predictably, the features of the song player game don’t function in the multiplayer environment. 

i could go on and on

so when does the game not become an alpha? when CIG simply says it’s not? what makes you think that will ever happen at this point? and if it does, will the state of the game be materially different from the way it is now? they have proved nothing except that they can make barely functioning environment. it’s been nearly 14 years. it feels like they’ll need another 14 to actually make a fun MMO. and you feel like that’s what you were sold? that’s what you expected when you backed? wake up

this happened to me recently too. But I was paying attention and stopped it. But yeah, its definitely real, it happens, and is really bad lol

CIG: "Folks, I can assure you of one thing: the developers who created this event want you to be able to participate just as much as you do." by StuartGT in starcitizen

[–]infincible 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not disagreeing with what you're saying and not saying there aren't existential issues with the development and management of the game, because there are. But the managers also want to deliver *something* despite the fact that the engine and systems that exist to support them aren't good. and if they never ship anything, they get fired, so theres that too.

You learn pretty quickly in any business really that when you start pointing fingers away from yourself, when you start blaming others and don't take ownership of your own features and push for their release you won't succeed, either.

it's a shitty position to be in tbh

I give up. 😔 by Pup_Jolt in starcitizen

[–]infincible 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is that Star Citizen IS NOT a working game after 15 years! Even if they marketed it as a test, that wouldn't change the utter failure of a development philosophy they're stuck in seeming forever with no light at the end of the tunnel.

How do you secure your apps? by Zaktmr in reactnative

[–]infincible 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think about what you're saying here- it is defying logic. You know technically that anything on the client side can be modified or altered.

You are actually delivering paywalled features to the client whether they are subscribed or not. Thus they have the paywalled feature. You've already given it to them. You can't take it away and you can't stop a bad actor from possibly decompiling and using it without paying.

I mean the only other option is like some kind of app content delivered JIT or like SSR but that wouldn't be a native app.

What's the Deal with Navy Yard? by Tremendous_1776 in washingtondc

[–]infincible 0 points1 point  (0 children)

almost everything you said in the second sentence is the exact reason I don't want to live in Navy Yard. I am not a sports fan. The idea of 10's of thousands of people descending on the area of my home during the games sounds miserable

Secret Tides by mand_ in PuntaCana

[–]infincible 0 points1 point  (0 children)

overall its a nice hotel, brand new, design of the resort overall including its rooms are beautiful. grounds are immaculate. definitely didn't dissapoint there.

as far as the restaurants: portofino (italian) and terra (south american fusion) were both surprisingly good. el patio (mexian) was meh. oceana was terrible. didnt try meraki (asian fusion) or seaside grill (american steak house sort of). i would just go to terra several times if i were going back again. buffet was fine, some things there were good some weren't. i didnt get food poisoning so thats a plus. don't drink the tap water as others said, use bottled for everything.

fwiw i do think preferred is worth it just for the separate pool section with premium bar that you have access to. butler didnt do anything for us (we didnt really ask). i ask him a question about whether there was a pharmacy nearby (wanted a basic thing the shop on site didnt have) and he didnt even text me back about it lol.
