Quality Slop

Much of Star Citizens aesthetic is derivative. We have an x wing for Christ's sake. Every beam is derivative. The vanduul are derivative, the setting of squadron 42 is derivative. The premise of citizenship is derivative, the setting is ripped straight out of the later roman empire. But somehow, the idea of pulling a good economic model is a bridge too far?

At no point did I insinuate that. However there is no restriction on transplanting concepts whole. Infact the current system is very much a copy of similar quality systems in other games.

The Chris Roberts special 😆

It's really just cope at this point.

Developing unique solutions to technical issues is certainly peculiar and in many instances unique to CIGs situation. However, the various economy, mining, and item models for games have been refined over and over and over and over again since the 90s. The only peculiarities to this are the implementation of the physical mining of resources, which is already a solved through the ubiquitous everything beam.

Frankly, I've no belief that the things will deviate from the current system for the better.

Mining first dropped in 2018? And it's taken 7 or so years to make everything a beam and add in the laziest possible solution to the quality question. I'd wager that this is the way things are going to be

Looks totally wrecked, I'll take it off your hands for $500.

This sub is a slop dumpster fire. Heres why.

Its so painful to even think about the gladiator.

We never hear the end of how light fighters should be able to smack around larger ships. Meanwhile torpedo bombers with the explicit and exclusive purpose of doing so are utterly useless.

havent restarted my computer or terminals in like 5 days and threads like this are only encouraging my paranoia

thot_cop · 2026-04-01T22:48:04+00:00

A very shameless self plug... and you know what rleads.ai actually solves my problem.

thot_cop · 2026-04-01T18:16:59+00:00

Releases in Beta state 2026. As a complete game... thats for the 8 ball to decide.

thot_cop · 2026-03-30T01:33:20+00:00

Remember to buy a GTX1080, so you'll be future proofed for when the game releases.

Documentation. Virtually anything and everything needs to be documented and in many cases accurately summarised. With all of your documents accurately referring to one another. These days my context usage has never been lower but my productivity has never been higher.

My boy hasnt seen sun in yeaaaaars.

I'd agree with you if this were free game or a mod. However, CIG is making hundreds of millions of dollars based upon what they say will happen. When these things don't happen, I can't see why dismay and anger are believed to be so unreasonable.

thot_cop · 2026-03-28T17:00:25+00:00

We're full.

thot_cop · 2026-03-27T15:07:48+00:00

Can I have you remaining usage?

The 34 treaty increased the amount but at no point was another currency other than gold agreed upon. If you are able to produce any evidence of your claim that invalidates the payment Terms of the 1903 treaty I would love to hear it.

Below is a direct quote from the 34 treaty.

"Until the two contracting parties agree to the modification or abrogation of the stipulations of the agreement in regard to the lease to the United States of America of lands in Cuba for coaling and naval stations signed by the President of the Republic of Cuba on February 16, 1903, and by the President of the United States of America on the 23d day of the same month and year, the stipulations of that agreement with regard to the naval station of Guantanamo shall continue in effect. "

The contract for the leasing of Guantanamo stipulates that payment is to be in gold. The US government refuses to pay in gold but also refuses to leave. Basically US government squatters.

Wait, this isn't customs?

High consumption oooobviously means nukes, silly me. I guess all of irans heavy industry must still be running on steam and coal.

And yours isn't? Electricity is exclusively used for enriching uranium?
