Star Citizen Discussions v7
- Thread starter Brett C

Maybe Chris' vision is for a space FPS game. Imagine that? Nobody has ever done space FPS apart from Doom, Quake and the not very good bits in Half Life, Halo and all those Star Wars games, Tribes, Planetside, Borderlands, That bit in Portal 2 when you went to the moon, Metroid prime and that Call of Duty game that wasn't very well received but seems to be the very lowest acceptable benchmark for SQ42 to meet even though they seem to have unlimited funds and time anyway.

Problem is that even that is questionable. Do they want to do Second Life in space? Or GTAV in space? Or is it COD but with lot of space and space themed (although IW already beat them to it, and turns out it wasn't that great)?
If SC scope changes, well, games do that during development sometimes. But what justifies that change? Do developers see where they are going? Or they are just going trough motions and make up things as they go?
SC online community had always these zealots who never questioned where this all leads. So obviously their attempts to explain it away are sad yet very telling about the nature of the project.
Easy way out for backers -
"Due to your new TOS which I can't accept, I can no longer play the game that I bought. Please issue refund forthwith".
Argue that in court
*edit - wording.
+ I didn't back the possibility that you will make ToS unacceptable one day, therefore I need to be refunded+compensated for my time loss and disappointment.
Chris could turn it into a space-themed "Stardew Valley" and there'd be idiots jumping up and down saying this is exactly what they wanted.
Part of me wants to disassemble and step through the "netcode", parse the logs at stack and router level and put it up for public ridicule, thus irreparably damaging the "Company" by demonstrating how masterful their internetwork engineers are.
I won't actually do it of course, because Genuine Roberts still owes me two games
I better get them

+1
I forgot about the compensation angle - nice one
You gotta play by their rules...
Here this was my best experience so far

Where did you come across the source code?
What source code is possibly needed to monitor the stack, routing table and pushed ports to layer 2?
Dude, do you even network?
What kind of horror game is this?
Can you explain to me, in detail, what you mean by "monitor the stack"? Do you mean monitoring your own network performance while in-game?
But hey...FPS are improving.....more videos incoming...the problem is after this kind of deaths you need to make an insurance-claim for your ship and wait for 30 min....if you are poor citizen and own only one tiny vehicle like me ....
That just got better and better.
I could - but it'll cost you money.
Sign up for a class at your local college and learn networking.
Oh - and purchase at least the TCP/IP Illustrated volumes, and read the documentals from your NIC provider.

I've been there and done that (and continue to do it for a living), which is why I thought your comment was pretty funny. I'm sure CIG is very concerned about you releasing your router's logs!
Why don't you fire up 3.0 and have a look for yourself
I don't have access myself - and I'm eagerly awaiting schooling and chastisement from a proper network engineer

That looked... interesting.
