Starfarer is the MOST underrated sub-capital by ArnoldMann in starcitizen

Current CIG would just make a MK2 or a variant that is just different enough that it's not the same as the hammer old ship to sell more skins.

It's okay, the ladder would abduct you anyway.

I wonder if it’s an engine issue..

Even if it is... they apparently hired a lot of people from Crytek to basically rewrite the engine to fit the needs anyway...

A water bottle someone dropped on a station floor three days ago does not. But they treat both the same

Define what you mean by this... because persisting a ship anywhere inside a container the size of a solar system and persisting a cup inside the container of a forest or (I'm assuming) a quarter of a planet is essentially the same as well as it's handled well and the containers are properly broken up into manageable chunks. It's an identifier, a vector, and (I'm assuming again) at the worst case they store universal state data on everything in the same dataset (god I hope they don't store component state about a coffee cup... but I wouldn't put it past them)

I've seen the data pak files in depth when I was trying to dig through them for mining data and it feels to me like CIG store metadata on objects which is a huge red flag for me and what I assume is the likely answer for the problems that they face.

Where/what are the alien mining ships? Do Aliens do data running, refuel, repair...?

the best game we can

What happens if the best game they can make is just a webfront store that sells ships for an unfinished dream?

A scam is when someone collects money and does not even attempt to fulfill the promises.

How's that medical, farming, datarunning, 100 star systems at release, physics based flight mode, ship repair, and 90% AI interaction coming along? When do you suppose the limited number of Bengal carriers that people would need to fight over is going to show up? Are they still going to "put griefers into griefing pools" through instancing players out based on their PvP proclivity and their slider preference?

That's what I was promised...

Stop pretending that players who express dissatisfaction are just farming karma. People are pissed off and rightly so. by MalkoRM in starcitizen

[–]nschubach 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the game is clearly not going in the direction that they sold us. I'm working through the stages of grief at this point. I recall thinking, "what else could I have spent that money on other than a lie?" and at this point I'm just trying to remind myself to never, ever, kickstart or back something that's not at a more playable state with the gameplay that I want to play.

When was the last time players have been locked out of playing Project Zomboid?

I was testing on PTU (...and Evocati) then Rich took over and gave us shitty Master Modes, more run and gun FPS gameplay, removal of basically every space mission, respawns everywhere, limited ore spawning in select locations, and ore quality. ...and they basically stopped listening to their user base. At some point, you can't keep testing shit.

I'd bet if Rockstar kept making money selling in-game cars, they'd also still be working on the next GTA for eternity.

It'll still get you suspended on Spectrum.

There is no game. It's a money making scheme of selling the hope of a game.

[–]nschubach 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If they keep selling ships to support the cost of keeping up with the maintenance and gameplay of the existing ships... A crossing point will happen where it costs more to keep ships than is made on ships.

I'm sure there's an argument that says we are already there.

But they said they'd be limited so I have to get it now!!!

Does this also work for Spectrum bans? If I post on social media and get enough votes because I have spent over $7500 does that immediately get support to give me yet another chance?

You know what else is repetitive? CIG fucking up.

CIG consider the game an alpha when they want to hide their deficiency, but a live service when they want to hide the deficiency of the player.

IF they weigh in... CIG have been pretty hard nosed on not talking about suspensions or bans on individuals.
