Lol...just seen this (sorry if it's been already).
Hitler is not happy about SC development
Huh, I didn't expect such a high upvote/downvote ratio on a video criticizing CIG's creative output.

Well, outside the fan zone, people are realistic.
Yeah, but I remember someone posting a simple video of Chris Roberts trying to play PU, and it was 40% downvotes IIRC.
Reality may have a strong anti-fan bias, it it takes a while to kick in…
Also, we shouldn't accidentally ruin his efforts. Just consider the possibility that maybe he's a deep-cover saboteur trying to further spread the already-prevalent perception that anything positive that's ever said about SC is inherently untrustworthy and systematically exaggerated.
I'm not entirely sure that this perception needs any more help than what CIG and its executives already provide, but you know…
True, people sacasta-posting in citizenese amuses me no end. But I don't inhale.
sorry boys, never thought I'd be asked to prove this up. If you want to believe it never happened, that's your right. Do what you want. But it was fun as all hell, for something that never happened
I'm thinking of setting up an intra-org discord channel so we can actually plan out nights like that.
Yeah, I'm going to call bull pucky on this. Only because I recently tried to play with two other friends while we waited to arrive in another game(hellion).
First one of us joined a game, then we all tried to join his server. I was able to get on, but was stuck at grim hex. My first friend was on the main port, and couldn't get to me. My second friend kept trying to join but would never get on the same server as us. It was a lagfest just trying to get out of hex, I couldn't get my "use" to pop up for the lift. And when it did, nothing would work! Meanwhile my two friends are playing Marko polo with different pads. We spent 50 minutes trying to find each other to no avail.
So yea, pix or it didn't happen.
Great choices. You won't have problems with a 970 with Rift, but a 1070 lets you crank up the supersampling and gets far more playable performance on injection drivers like VorpX. Definitely a much better move than having jpgs for a game that may or may not be released in several years. Touch is a must if you want to do stuff besides sims, it's the best product Oculus has had a hand in and really intuitive. I've been going mad using it for 3D sculpting and drawing over the past few months, really terrific!
Meanwhile, I'm noticing much more discontent on the RSI forums even on threads calling for the faithful to testify and shout Hosanna:
"As to the OPs topic and whether or not I believe in SC. Well the game exists, at least in alpha so for what its worth its real. Now do i have considerably more doubts after being a part of the community for over a year now that the game will be all that many think it will be? Oh definitely, aside from the pedestal that some put Chris on and that there is no way for this game to live up to the expectations that some have for it, I believe in certain principals. One is that if you show that you are not trustworthy with a little then you should not be given more. CIG has violated a number of its promises, such as openess, community involvement, integrity in its sales dept,... If you show to me that you care so little about the community that is litterly your bread and butter than why should I trust anything you tell me after that.
CIG wanted the freedom to develop a game without a publisher breathing down their necks. I thought that was a great idea as companies like EA have done alot to ruin the gaming industry. It promised a number of things when it went to the public and asked people to support their dream. The public did to the tune of multiple millions of dollars, and in return the company grew. Now that it is bigger you no longer see CIG talking with the community you see them talk at them. After they sell a ship with a number of features that dont wind up being included or working and the community is upset about this then the community I mocked and insulted by CIG. for a long time I gave CIG the benefit of the doubt when it comes to a bunch of things, but I have watched them give the people who are keeping the company alive the finger way too often. To me CIG is not far from EA in terms of how it treats its customers, so I cant say that I have any trust in the higher up within the company.
I certainly hope that the game gets done and that it turns out to be an excellent game, but having blind faith in any man, much less one who has violated the trust of so many on multiple occasions is a mistake that nobody should make. At this point nothing CIG could do would surprise me. I would be angry at a number of things they could do, but I cant say I would be surprised. "

we can just agree to disagree then.

next time, try forming a party before loading in. Makes it much easier to get into the same instance.

Dee Dee could manage a day trip to Yoker, he'd be a better project manager for Star Citizen than Chris Roberts. There would probably be an actual game by this point.
Also why hasn't someone let Limmy design a game? He'd be diabolical.

It's like alternative medicine - it's not working because you didn't believe in it enough/do the right magic things. If you really believe in Chris and understand game development then it's amazing *crawls back inside his cardboard box* ooooooooooh

How about next time, providing actual evidence to back up your frankly, hilarious claims?
Because a lot of people, even some of the big time backers who stream the game on a regular basis ("big" being a very subjective word... if you call barely getting over 200 viewers on a good day "big") struggle to recreate anything *close* to the "experience" you said you had with your "org buddies". And usually when they try to, the game lags horribly, the game crashes regularly, or the various players have a devil of a time just getting onto the same server.... And yes, that's with using the "join party" feature too.
So sorry JMG, most folks on here aren't going to just take your word for it.
