Not based on my understanding of the definition. What you’re describing is complexity, not depth. Depth is the number of unique outcomes, relative to the number of player actions. A good game maximizes depth (outcomes) while minimizing complexity. A classic example is the difference between Go (depth) and Chess (complexity).

Just don't give Chris a 'Weirding Module'. He'll be blasting holes the size of Skyrim with every "Fidelity!"

We have to be very careful recommending the T16000 stick, because as much as I love how it feels and the price is great, it is VERY prone to a certain type of failure and you’re either going to be sending it back until it’s out of warranty or you’ll have to crack it open to fix/replace the bad pots. Mine is now fixed for good but it required replacement parts, soldering, and a lot of patience.
Lol, no. Really want to try and make a video right now, because that much is so obvious. Just a walk about the MSR would be an eye opening experience.
3.14 is not out. I'll see with my own eyes if, for instance, my copilot screens become useful and active. Like, for example, copilot taking care of the gimbal guns, or managing power distribution and shields ? (since until now, trying to do so did absolutely nothing). Also extra seats in the Caterpillar, are they now doing anything ? Or the screens there are still just 3D assets for decoration ? (edit) and that engineer station in the Retaliator, does it do anything now ?

See my post before that one for an example of a deeper gameplay loop. Depth, is going beyond the varnished surface of 3D graphic assets. Currently SC alpha is merely that, in a small, and shallow sandbox, where you can pewpew a bit with slow lasers and heavy desync, and deliver boxes by fighting the still completely broken physics engine.Whenever I dig into people's idea of "immersion" and "depth" I quickly come to the conclusion that I'm not "people". But that's ok.

Its ok, i always presumed you were a chat bot
If you are doing a lot of sweaty pvp you are also going be breaking the twist on them.
Its been years since I had the X56, but it was also junk breaking every 30 days. Went through 3 sets before the 4th one actually worked for a while.
Yay!
Looking forward to WotR... which i'll be getting just as soon as I get to the end of Kingmaker with any of my parties..... although that's not looking likely any time soon.
Furthest in progress is now my Evil party, just finished War of the River Kings and got my throne back... which was nice, because it was rather silly sitting on that stool.

Has nobody told this guy that patches drop metronomically now, driving the relentless advancement?

Sometime next week I will try to install the game again
Also, not really. Merging is costly.
Not this again.
Honestly, it is usually better to reduce scope of the release than extend the release time. Of course this applies only if there is something non-breaking to deploy, even if minor.Thats the beauty of staggered development, this wont affect 3.15 at all!

Newer Logitech built ones are fine, I got one as a warranty replacement for my almost 2 year Saitek built X56 which developed a drift in the twist yaw. Been working fine for a couple of years now... and I'm not exactly gentle with it

10th year in to development...
Wait, seriously you guys had no loot in the game?

Holy heck, went to see when I actually ordered it and noticed they are $450 now. Not sure they are worth that.

you obviously missed the part about how leaves blow around!

It’s staggered by 3.13 already
