Game Discussions Star Citizen Discussion Thread v12

From Reddit...
It was my dream game too from when I was a kid and we only had wire frame graphics on the C64. It ticks every box we dreamed up at the time.
It’s why I backed it, for that kid’s dream all those years ago. I actually have never installed it!
 
Maybe it would be a good thing to review some peoples posts with a bit of leeway like many probably read mine where I constantly try to portrait CIG as scammers, scum, fraud etc. I dont have definitive proof and people could call me out but everybody probably thinks "yeah its Fritz and if I react to his wall of text guess what hes gonna do.....yeah...another 20.k word count so meh...." also I tend to believe I have some kind of history/reputation on this forum so people know its my opinion mostly. Its almost impossible to make people admit a mistake but you can of course point them out. When you consider the content of some posts and their assumed intention you will never any kind of confirmation for this back and forh.

Reading the last few pages makes me think there is some "bone" to be growled over and I m not sure thats really a good thing when things become borderline personal.

The extreme bias and double standard demonstrated by many pro-SC fans is irritating and outright annoying but it cant be helped I guess. Their counterpart, the so-called "haters" do nothing else than demanding hard evidence for claimed achievements and performance so simply by logical conclusion I would say that one side is worse than the other

I have observed the flat earther movement for quite some time now and whats becoming increasingly obvious is that the more globalists push the more flat earthers push back. Nowadays flat earthers claim to be the only "woke" and everybody else is sheeple and even tho they come up with ridiculous claims and methods of proof and clearly dont understand scale, physics and so many scientific things you are not going to make them admit wrongdoing or convert them to the truth. SC fans are pretty much the same. And I m not talking about everybody who likes the idea or put money into this. I m talking about the more invested folks who have no restraint to phrase everything SC related in the best possible way, dismiss or ignore obvious issues while at the same time looking and finding non-issues in other areas.

Trump/Biden? Same thing. You have people making a personal decision and going with it....often battling forward. Truth and facts hardly ever are a factor in these disputes. Only winning is. We could outright ignore each other but of course thats not going to happen when currently SC propagandists try to convince the rest of the world that SC is the BDSSE. And when they get rejected, challenged or ridiculed for their claims (last see on the Star wars squadron forums) its because everybody else "hates" Star Citizen. Sure.

Pointing out flaws is pretty much all you can do. Which means you gotta have to ignore denial and crazy stuff a bit.

Anyway...back to the program :)
Flat earthers...hmm. It's a simple and fundamental law of evolution that calls their logic into question...if the earth were indeed flat, domestic cats would have knocked everything off the edge by now ;)

I thought CIG initially used Cry engine, modified it and started calling it Star Engine with rumbles of releasing the engine. Then they moved to Lumberyard, but the move to Lumberyard was basically a front screen mod to show Lumberyard, whilst it was still their mods with Cry Engine in the background. At which point Star Engine stopped being a thing. Maybe I missed something but I have not seen anything about Star Engine recently in anything coming directly from CIG.

And one for @sovapid, care to comment whether this would stop you being naughty?

...

Just like in ED this is a design error. I just re-downloaded Naval Action gave it a hard thought whether I join the PvE or PvP server and it wouldn't occur to me that a player sinking my ship would be naughty. It'd more like being salty about port camping and hiding in battle instances that have resolved to ambush unsuspecting players. (Looks like that is still a thing).
If devs are either too dumb or do it deliberately - just take into account that unified PvE/PvP is just marketing gag and noone will ever likely solve the underlying problem a PvE player faces when playing a game that allows PvP. Just don't buy it. It's nollocks. Buy a PvE game. Don't believe the marketing nonsense. It's impossible to put all players in one bucket. You wanna do it proper you make 2 buckets.

Let people do dumb stuff. If the dumb stuff they do impacts others, toss em in jail. If they continue doing dumb stuff, give them a permanent crime stat. Make people with permanent crime stat clear it at a special secure facility with more guards, interior turrets and all kinds of nonsense to make it pure misery to clear it.
That should keep all but the most idiotic of idots in line.

Im not gonna do something that is pure misery, i wouldn't play.

Or.....

I'm gonna try and get players to do things so they end up with the permanent crime stat.

pretty much as you say but the "Star Engine" claim is being dug out whenever needed to support CIGs competence and effort
 
If I was going to be nasty then I'd go for : Just an illusion by Imagination
Holy crap

I was just listening to that late 70s - 80s classic in my car while driving home earlier. Couldn't resist adding it here. Not because it's perfect conversational piece as you indicated, but for being a really amazing song! :D

Just an illusion

Ohh ohh ohh ohh Aaaah!

Illusion......
