Game Discussions Star Citizen Discussion Thread v12

[thistle]

I don't think i've ever seen any other game focused YouTuber title videos like "A Call of Duty Player Plays Battlefield" and then milk it for months. But maybe they have.

I imagine it's twofold:

1- she has a (new & enthusiastic) audience who are interested in her SC content, some in particular attracted by the angle. Elite no, SC yes.
2- that audience know the formulation of words and use them to search and recognise the brand. Don't mess with what works!

 

[thistle]

She feels the same way. The honeymoon is over, it's now a solid marriage.

Makes sense.

edit - although retiring the ED references in titles goes against what I just said, "Don't mess with what works!"

Rumor: Leaked file list suggests Star Citizen’s Theaters of War is being made into a standalone game | Massively Overpowered

Looks like that rumour has been shot down:

from https://robertsspaceindustries.com/...nication-about-tow-before-rumors-turn-to-ridi

Still be interesting to see if it gets mentioned at CitizenCon

Tyler's a trustworthy fellow. It's just a game mode, like Star Marine.

Glad he spoke up to make everything crystal clear.

Now I'm going to buy an Idris.

Sorry, are we now believing anything Zyloh says?

Zyloh "I played through all of SQ42 in 2016"? That Zyloh?

I'll wait and see what they actually release.

PS: It could actually be both. For PC it will be a mode of SC. For console, a standalone game.

yes. seems he originally said CitizenCon was a game mode, so this makes me a believer.

Well, as believable as a story based on the nvidia leak anyway

This thread moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around sometimes you might miss it!

Hah, from that thread:

Someone poses some questions, including

6. Does ToW use the same engine as SC?

And someone responds

6) Now this is just a ridiculous question, yes of course it does, along with all the tools, assets, etc etc. It is completely illogical to think they are magically using another engine for it.

I really want to know if ToW really is done with Unreal.

I refuse to call it Theaters. Just like I refuse to believe anything Mr I-played-all-SQ42-episodes-6-years-ago says.

But yeah - that "leak" is 100% pure cow excrement. CIG would not release a game. Come on.

The dad looked a little like a Kerbal, but apart from that, very good.

Have they also given any explanation for having a game mode make it to that Nvidia list? Are Star Marine or the Murray Cup thingie also in that list?

The latter two are not.

I’ll cut the guy some slack… he is just an employee and will say what management told him to say!

Even if he knows ToW is a separated mode he has to play its role a do his job!

Like that Autodesk employee that once told EagleCAD community that Autodesk didn’t had plans to put the software under subscription after they bought it from Cadsoft..

You can search by title. Neither of those show up (as StuartGT pointed out), nor does Arena Commander. SC and SQ42 each have two entries.

SQ42 is on it too, but that's not a game either.

Presume someone must have already pointed out that simple observation to Zyloh in Spectrum, looking forward to his explanation!
