Oh well... Time for some more refactoring and priority shifting I guess... [where is it]

I feel for the poor lads working near Chris' desk, they're in for some serious moments.

And that was only half of what is getting revealed this week. We still got another hour on Thursday


*giggles*
 
The contrast between the two companies couldn't be any more different on this day. One gives you the "privilege" of spending money on them while the other gives you something far beyond what you expected.
 
"I used to work at Infinity Ward, modeling to death AK-47s and evil turbaned people. Now I work at CIG.

I miss Infinity ward... (Please help me get out of here!)

With the LEP and Beta access, I spent nearly double what I spent on Star Citizen. Guess which one has made me feel I've gotten my money's worth?

Damn right. Although I must admit SC has earned what I spent on it through comedy value so I can't begrudge my expenditure :)
 
May I ask one thing? What about the "paarp" thing? What's that, where does it comes from?

Also What Orlando Post? I have him ignored so...

It's the sound of an airhorn going off. There was some video of a CitCon presentation going… not that well, where it made a spectacularly well-timed appearance to show how ridiculously clownish the whole situation was.

Oh, and Orlando just showed off the usual crop of dull and grey not-in-the-game-yet concepts that demonstrate how CIG still isn't really working on anything resembling the actual core of a game.

True...we just get this dumb new dolphin ship added to the game for no IRL money /s

No bias at all then or did you miss the bit about the cash shop for the nice clothes ;)

( I am mostly only joking ... Truth is tho if people really want to ruin any progression in SC by buying it all with real cash, that is up to them. I'll sti k with my £50ish pledge and actually play the game to get my stuff)

True enough. It is CIG shooting themselves in the foot by offering so much late game content for cash money up front. Just shortens the interest for those that spend the money and will cause lots of grief on their forum, as if there isn't enough already.

Though, if your goal is to make money without having to finish a game, its brilliant.
 
This reminds me of the planetary landing reveal we still can't play... I'm certain that in a few weeks Roberts will present a fancy live stream complete with cheering crowd in which we'll see him personally "demonstrate" the content/fidelity/feature rich avatar creator that he'll specifically emphasis isn't some "hologram" and is perfectly real.

He'll then go on to talk about how it'll be available to download soon, as he slowly increases one of many high fidelity nose size sliders.

People will be amazed to see his actual nose grow larger on his actual real face in real time.

Followed by a concept sale.
 
GOOD MORNING CITIZENS! Look who's BACK! YEAHHHHHHHHH!

The new's info and media Star Citizen posting will resume at full force now at the request of several citizens!
Hang in there Citizens because the the Best Damn Space Sim Ever is getting better and better while being still early in alpha it's already providing some of the best footage ever seen in the sci-fi gaming scene! Rejoice with the following community work made only with "un-adultered/let's pretend our game has this to make it appealing" gameplay footage:

The new updates also allows for players to change their servers accordingly to their zone, allowing for the much needed Ping Parity between players, US, EU, AUS getting their own servers accomplishes another stretch goal from the many others to come! Just another amazing feature provided the fact that CIG + Amazon partnership.
It's great when huge company's think alike and merge forces to join their efforts into giving the best to gamers! Way to go CIG/Amazon!

Meanwhile some of the amazing stuff that we can expect from 3.0 Stanton System is the Hurston Planet landing location seen bellow in concept and pre-renders:

Landing on moons will also provide some amazing vistas as Yela show's in the bellow ss's:

More to come as things develop! Have fun Citizens!

Ofc the avatar portion is also continuously getting some love with the new heavy armour showcase looking powerfull and deadly as ever:

Hey Orlando :)

Those must have looked good back when you posted them ;).

Also What Orlando Post? I have him ignored so...

As far as I know paarp stems from the bizarre faces Gary Oldman was having to pull. His mouth looked like an airhorn which led to "paarp".

Many thanks... I see. :)

Oh man... more concept art, wow.
In the while, another game just shown off half of half of the next update.... ah whatever.
We all saw that. Thrilled.

When I googled "parp" I found on urban dictionary that it is British slang for a fart. I assumed it was a joke about how citizens eva without any noticble thrusters/jet packs attached to their suits.

If it's really the Gary oldman thing, I'm disappointed.

Orlando, the character in that pic looks good. Is that an example of an avatar creator ala our livestream today? Very realistic. Dare I say it, impressive fidelity.
