Game Discussions Star Citizen Discussion Thread v12

[Agony_Aunt]

Guns in my ship's gun racks, empty Lux bottle pyramids on my ships's mess-hall table, trophies and such collected over the years displayed in my ready room cabinet...... that sort of thing?

 

[Agony_Aunt]

That's assuming one Jesus tech comes before the other Jesus tech, permanent persistence is just that, no more wipes, everything else in that sentence depends on server meshing.

And server meshing always depends on another not-yet-implemented-tech.

 

[Agony_Aunt]

For the record, I like to state that I really don't give two hoots about this cluster mess.

Behind my abject apathy is the oft stated big-picture of one unfinished system, endless broken promises and missed deliveries. All requiring eleven years and 500M to 'achieve'.

Don't get me wrong, it is vaguely interesting to observe this slow-speed juggernaut crashing, but the liklihood of SC (or SQ404) ever reaching the promised endpoint (or appearing) is seemingly zero (vanishingly distant). In the meantime Starfiled will arrive, as will its many DLCs. NMS will continue to be enhanced, and, although I think unlikley, ED may yet get another update.

However I do genuinely (mostly) enjoy the mildly charming and amusing insanity of the lovely players in this thread.

In other news, I'll be having fish for my dinner, with a freshly homemade pasta sauce and (unsurprisingly) some good quality pasta, all with a good white wine.

I look forward to the Starfield remaster, and the remastered remaster, and the remastered remastered remaster, before SC is delivered.

Skips through several pages of 'My game is still better than yours because...' ...just for brevity.

Or should that be 'My opinion is still more correct than yours because...'

Playing Crusader Kings 3 at the moment.

I bet in Star Citizen you can't marry your sister! Checkmate!

 

[Factabulous]

However, are there any other Space Games that let you peruse and purchase the ultimate immersion chariot for mere currency, as it’s one and only near-complete game mechanic?

Star Atlas?

Glad I checked how it is going I expect a Kira vid any time now

How it started (Nov 22):

I can't bring myself to support Paradox anymore with their DLC models (I worked out how much I spent on EUIV and CKII and well... felt very dirty).

Sad news, the fish was sold out. So, a spicy sausage casserole it is. With red wine.

Sorry for any upset, and, for the avoidance of doubt, it's the casserole not the sausages that'll be spicy.

Wake me up when September comes.

edit: holy mother of CIG, I got the lyrics wong.

Heh. Yeah, i understand, but since they generally deliver top notch games, i don't mind. Besides, for CK3, i haven't bought any DLCs. Game is already complicated enough without adding even more stuff into it.

There isnt a Star Atlas thread you could post in?

 

[VR Golgot]

SC's dead at the mo. We need to get our immersion-chariot fix somewhere!

 

[VR Golgot]

Oh wait I tell a lie, it's all happening!

 

[VR Golgot]

Actually, talking of chariots, I've got a question for the thread.

Can anyone remember other ships going through a 'BMM' scenario? (Like getting a big round of PR and art showcasing, a juicy price bump, and then totally not getting released for an age).

I'm thinking the Hull series, and the Carrack, might have followed similar tracks. Any others spring to mind?

 

[PiLhEaD]

I look forward to the Starfield TWO remaster... before SC is delivered.

FTFY

 

[Viajero]

Isn't the point of persistence to be permanent?

Now where was that classic quote from CIG trying to make persistence persist longer? That was awesome, @Skizomeuh ?!

 

[PiLhEaD]

...more gameplay in Stanton than the whole of tic-tac-toe.

Gear up for success!

Carrack, Redeemer, Vanguards...I'm sure there are many others

It's amazing isn't it. When you're in the insanity of the SC bubble, everything looks normal. Step back and it looks ridiculous. It's the best funhouse mirror ever.

I bet in Star Citizen you can't marry your sister! Checkmate!

Yeah, but can you marry your stalker?

"How is this real"

Well, let's see. People keep giving CIG money, so CIG can keep pulling this sort of stuff.
