Should have done that in character as Avasarala

...What...what is going on? Is there some pounding techno music in the original video I'm missing?

He's doing sign language for the blind, very loudly ...

 

[Red Anders]

So the SQ42 update is the 'other' update with only the SQ42 paras ... hmmm.

And yes, when they can boast about only just starting the work to be able to make 3d icons it does seem unlikely they will finish the game this year ..

January saw the Character Team continue to update the hairstyles of SQ42.

That's obviously why Chris has been away. No time for backers with all those hairstyles to review.

"The Social Team continued with the long process of narrative interaction. The technology for breaking away from, abandoning, and re-joining conversations is complicated when applied to specific actor performances "

I understand that fitting motion capture in to a game in a smooth and believable way is a very difficult thing to achieve, but how long ago was that motion capture done?

Put it this way - when the game goes live people will be asking why all the women are wearing bonnets.

 

[Asp Explorer]

Have they fidelitised the procedurally generated hair revolumisation physicallised by putting plastic bag helmets on, scaled properly for each style on both avatar models?

 

[Asp Explorer]

Whatever happened to Sataballs?

 

[Agony_Aunt]

Can I preorder a bobblehead of Chris Roberts

Wouldn't that actually be a bobblearm?

 

[Agony_Aunt]

So Chris just invented a thing that fdev shamelessly stole years ago...

Star Citizen has been in development for over 7 years. This tweet perfectly encapsulates why that is.

This just cracked me up on the refund sub:

Star Citizen is now a weekly roadmap simulator

[Fishy]

Bobbleheads??!

 

[n4p0l3on]

just you wait for the ultra fidelitized CR bobblehead complete with procedural generated waving hands and ultra immersive direct FOIP connection to CR selfie camera 24/7 offering never seen before and never been done before unprecedented level of developer to gamer interaction, this is ultra limited LTI only for $4242!

 

[Factabulous]

Does SC have the lore to make bobbleheads worth the dev effort? Maybe a CR bobblehead, but not sure SC would have rights for classic CR game ships Maybe SC will get the churchill dog and hula girl - could cause a mass exodus from ED if the posts can be believed

Overall not a great week for SC with the main points being apples, bobbleheads and cocktails - none really scream BDSSE to me ...

 

[Viajero]

Remember the Cant!

You know, from a Spanish accent pronunciation perspective, there is not much difference between that last word and changing it with another specific vowel. Just saying

 

[Rubbernuke]

Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck need to stop playing games and get back to writing. I need the ninth and final book!

The backers are getting upset.
