The writing’s on the wall for Elite eh? You’re right, that it is a prediction worth bookmarking ;)


But I do not recall Tony´s stating a clear win for either party on the matter. I ll take a look.

Yeah, he never did. He did reckon the case was strong enough to get to discovery [35m15s] (correct), that CIG would get the cash in a dismissal with prejudice [30m30s] (incorrect on the first bit, they all paid their own fees, with the bond returned to Crytek), and that Crytek would get a payday in the settlement, to be signalled by a lack of post-settlement bragging (totally possible, but also unprovable either way).

But engaging with those details would involve vape using more than the 'Cryrekt' meme or 10 word posts, so don’t hold your breath ;)

A more useful touchstone might be: The Guard Freq guys discovered CIG had outsourced 'a game' to Firesprite years back. An effort which has so far delivered... ToW...

Maybe they truffle up some stuff that’s worth listening to? ;)

Holy Idris Sovapid! Thats 6hrs long, any highlights / timestamps particularly worth listening to? I got drilling to do so cant just put on in the background :)

--------------------------

Anybody else keeping up with the spiritual successor to SC II otherwise known as Dreamworld? Im gonna shill for this guy coz hes new and hes British and he properly researches stuff without bleating on about it:


The highlights so far:

'Game' pitched on KS for $10K - raised $60K - KS removed 'We Like This' tag after numerous doubts raised - Mysterious backers turned out to be P2P investors who trusted a company to do Due Diligence (they hadnt and a 'friend' fast tracked the Dreamworld project) - Multiple stolen items / assets/ music in the KS pitch - KS & P2P Company now looking into it - destroys reputation of investor company and possibly KS as they took their $3K after removing from KS - 2 'Devs' (including 1 'workaholic') who pitched it went on 2 week holiday the day KS ended - other unconnected legal investigations will 'take action' - and more :)

might want to open up a new thread. This one here is busy enough with the current spam we have, no need to mudden the waters /sternlook
 
Coming back to ToW, a lot of lucidity in this post:


This is a game mode without Quantum, without a server having to keep track of multiple "regions" planets, 100's of NPC's, 100's of quests from different players, NPC spawns, and despawns, rock spawns, and despawns... over 95% of the server stress is not there... Yet it still can't function at the most base level.. These are all the excuses both CIG (and even myself white knighting them against haters) will use to defend the current state of the game, 30k's, and instability issues.
 
Coming back to ToW, a lot of lucidity in this post:


like this gem:

TOW is just a testing ground for performance and features specifically focussed on large scale FPS, it's not really meant to "work" it's meant to be able to optimize features in and test gameplay out. If all they wanted to do was release something to the public they could have, but that's clearly not the focus.

Not really meant to 'work' :) With fans like these nothing needs proving, but they are toxic to the wider backer community.

Did you see the thread where they announced 2 things for ToW?

1. New 1 v 1 Duel Mode
2. Known Issues - ToW can crash when another player enters the arena

Nothing to see here...
 
im playing a different early access game lately!

For me its Valheim and Baldur's Gate 3.

Truly "playable now" games.
 
I'm just using the forum chat for a bit of normality in a pretty dark and very stressful time at the moment, rather than just staring at the phone waiting for it to ring. It helps :)

Wouldn't normally mention serious RL stuff in such a way on a public forum, but the bickering and usual forum back and forth are keeping me sane...if that ever was a possibility ;)

Think everyone’s been put through the tumbler one way or another this year. It is cool to have a distraction that’s all laser beams and silliness.

Hope you get the call you need (even if it doesn’t come today), and that there’s a light glimmer down the road for you M.
