There's been more than a few. You may remember the 'Rise to Power' competition and the drama/self-import that generated.

I'm fairly sure that EDF chap who came on the forums all the time was similar to this too.

Don't recall Rise to Power.

Ah, EDF... erm, yes. I've had my differences with that person. But i don't think he did any streaming, or shouty streaming, or if he did, it wasn't on my radar.

It was the event where the 'chosen few' player groups were bigging themselves up so they could become a powerplay power and a big part of the lore, and then got trounced decisively by the EG Pilots.

I just meant more the mindset, rather than the stream. You saw a lot of the sort of thing you're specifically talking about (rather than the vague 'attitude' that I am), then you just had to stick your nose into any self-important 'celebrity' streamer, just before the got stream sniped by SDC.
 
I guess you'll find these near military focused or heavily "serious" competitive games, or the kind that help with e-peen issue?

Well I can certainly think of one space game with some players who take it entirely too seriously.

I won't link it here but do a search on youtube for 'this is really eve' 😁 That's just the first one I thought of, there are hundreds of vids of Eve wannabe generals completely losing it.

That video was an absolute gem.
 
Like me and a lot of my gaming life, you've probably been lucky.. I was seriously spoiled with the groups I ran with up till about '11, since then I've seen more and more of these groups I'd regard as 'slightly mad'.

I can assure you they do exist in Elite (or at least, did when I used to do Squadron play) and some of the attitudes you're seeing in this video carried over.



Possibly.

Case in point, for anyone who wants a giggle (and particularly Messr Mole)


Steely-eyed e-warriors, one and all.
I'll tell you a truth...I've listened to and given worse briefings during my time :D

It was a blast from the past for me...nice hearing real life squaddie speak as a normal way of talking again. In ARMA, it always confused the hell out of me when we ended up having civvies mixed in with our group of veterans...it made the constant explainations of what we were talking about severely taxing and time consuming :)
 
The guy is nowhere in then SC scene to be seen anymore yeah? Just vanished? If that is true and judging by the date of the vid it´s like he did this as if he knew he had a new PR project coming, had to move on next and this was his last act and legacy for the SC community. Epic.
If Rexilla is gone/on temp vacation, are bigger whales like Phillip Schultz (pictured with Sandi here) still around?

 
Though there's been another 17M brought by the Calder, so presumably for the marketing, so maybe her talent is still at work... Or there's another handbag.

Same for Erin. Long time no see, and that's ly more worrying.

Alledgedly Erin is now in charge of SC while the long haired dude has taken over from Erin as head of SQ42. CR is apparently busy refactoring the physics engine (because he can't hire anyone else to do it?!) and Sandi is apparently working on her acting career.


We can only hope its better than The Perception.

"is now in charge of SC" is the new "is now working remotely for family reasons"?

As I said before, it's quite funny the guy who was hired to deliver SQ42 because of his experience in delivering games (and probably because he was meant to be able to say no to his brother if needed?) is now relegated to the less priority side of the project which will never have a release date.

Any dreams i had that Erin was in a position to tell CR "no" died when i saw a video where Erin outline a really decent proposal for how they would focus on delivering content in order to ship a core game, only for CR to immediately say the exact opposite. Erin might be saying no, but CR isn't listening. We also know from CR that he doesn't like people telling him no. Since he probably can't sack his brother, he just chooses to ignore him or pretend that Erin actually said yes.
