Because those features are necessary for even SQ42 to launch. A high level Subsumption feature, not a first pass, is required to make Adaptive AI work. No Adaptive AI no Squadron 42. The only relatively recent feature added to Squadron 42 is infiltration and that first came up like a year ago...

Only reason I'm here is because I also play EQ... Anyway Adaptive AI is not something that was unique to EQN. Star Citizen also plans to implement it as part of their Subsumption feature that comes out with 3.0 in the coming months. It just won't be in the first pass that hits with 3.0...

Well they want you to do other stuff besides run cargo. They want you to get mugged for one. I'm not sure if players would be allowed to do this or just NPCs. So that's something to look forward to at port. =p But on a more serious note they talked about you finding a mission to...

I had to read up on packs since I didn't play ArcheAge. In ArcheAge packs would slow you down and It was not recommended that you even attempt to deliver one without escort as anyone with range could potentially take you out and if you dropped your pack to fight then another player might pick...

Looting cargo from a ship, planet side base or transferring it between ships (from looting ship to cargo ship) in space no. That's risk/reward. There has to be an inherent risk to you doing Piracy either vs NPCs or Players beyond the simple shoot people, blow up ship and run. This is an FPS...

Game development is a slow tedious process especially when building/rebuilding an engine and you have a dollar waiting on a dime in a sense. An example of what every largely independent dev dreams of is CDPR which now has fuck you money. They showed a tech demo of CyberPunk 2077 and have said...

Not everything revolves around you a_skeleton_03. Others did care about how cargo related jobs would be implemented. Yeah system minutiae... Your argument is invalid.

Ok we got some new updates in today's ATV about some things we discussed and other things you guys might find interesting. I watched it and broke it down so you don't have to. Key points: 1. How cargo handling is going to work for Merchants/Pirates/Salvage jobs. Some people were hung up on...

Have to add yet another notch on my retarded belt. So I was watching a stupid amount of Chris Roberts interviews trying to get more details on the game and what they are planning and didn't realize that one of the ones I watched leading up to Gamescom where he said they couldn't get the...

That's a good point. You would literally have to run larger ships like a military to be really effective. GL is the Captain who only talks to org upper leadership unless he needs to broadcast ship wide and department heads giving orders to their own departments based on the Captain's orders...

Having thought about the Idris meta I totally forgot about the ship modules until I wrote that last sentence. I feel like a retard having not thought of that sooner since that was first mentioned almost two years ago and then re-confirmed around the time 2.0 launched. Originally they planned...

Since I own an Idris and even convinced the CIG devs during the Idris revamp (enlarged from Corvette size to Frigate) to switch the brig with the infirmary (moving the infirmary logically near to the landing pad centrally in the ship instead of being on one support strut) I think I have some...

FYI there is character perma death but not account perma death. You will never lose your stuff. The worst possible thing that will happen is you are forced to reroll a new toon at which point you can choose whatever gender you want and have to make a new character. They might allow you to...

I personally wouldn't care if they did that to me but yeah people would be upset. Would it shock you if I told you I actually plan not to use a single fucking thing I purchased on Day 1? I'm not unique in that line of thinking among big backers. A lot of people at that funding tier have a...

No I quit SWG because they fucking ruined it. They got rid of templates and created hard classes and generally just fucked with the basic functions of the game. I actually lead a thread in their forums at the time on how to solve the template issue. As you may or may not recall Commando was...

Ever play Star Wars Galaxies? I stopped before Jump to Lightspeed came out but when I played it I was one of the most wealthy Bounty Hunters on my server. That class template could generate ridiculous amount of coin if you knew how to exploit the game mechanics which I did. I then used that...

Yet you used EQ as an example. It's hard to name an MMO with a more linear power curve. Love how you completely ignore the fact that SC requires skill more than just equipment. Have you ever even played in Arena Commander? Lots of videos around with good players in Auroras raping everyone in...

Yeah it's up 24/7. The only environment that is brought down often is the PTU (testing environment) due to the many patches. I can't speak for 2.5 directly as I haven't played it but from reading other people's reaction it's a mixed bag. On the one hand some people are having fun and can even...

And how good were purchased lv50 characters in EQ? I remember there being a special place in Hell for those people. I get where you are going but you are cherry picking the most ideal situation when in reality in every MMO that I played EQ, AO, WoW, EVE etc. purchased ships/accounts didn't...

Well some are making that argument and some aren't. How you deal with it is a legitimate concern. They have to go the route of giving an advantage to those that paid for ships early on. There really isn't a choice. We can debate the positives and negatives but it's still mostly fluff since...

"Chris said" isn't your hang up. You had no problem using that information in your own argument about how the game will fail. You keep repeating the same bullshit ad nauseam hoping it will catch on?

Did you purposefully say after the forum move you hoped I would come back so you could try to hurt me because this is fun to you? Well keep your Kleenex handy and don't rub too hard it might come off.

You make it sound like it would be linear when that isn't the goal. Chris also mentioned that the cost of upkeep would rise with the value of the ship. Their later plans for Subsumption is to allow you to buy full crews for ships. Pilots for fighters or an entire crew for a Constellation or...

I literally wrote the same thing Blackwulf did and I'm the one that doesn't understand that what isn't in game has no value in an argument. Combined with your previous statements thank you for proving unequivocally that you are trolling me. I'll keep that in mind.

Well you asked: Tired of waiting for the game has nothing to do with your comment or mine about the pricing scheme. You don't even know what you wrote. Arguing that the game is essentially done is not something I have done since page 1 so wtf? I gave up convincing you or anyone after the...

a_skeleton_03 you are making statements based on half of what Chris recently said and drew a conclusion and your expectations and conveniently left out literally the second sentence he said that I provided for context. I bring up the second part of what he said and I'm parroting. Boy do you...

a_skeleton_03 that's an accurate description of the current state of the game. However why are you writing them off when they have continued to prove naysayers wrong on previously supposedly impossible milestones. What's the logical reason behind that. They hired a professional to help design...

Short answer no. It doesn't matter what is released or how long they spend doing it. They will never make everyone happy. If they can make 80-90% of the playerbase happy that would be a coup. However an angry 10-20%, without polling, could look like the entire community is rebelling simply...

If that's the case that just lowers my opinion of people even further. Wasn't sure that was possible but here we are.

Conclusion is a big word for what some people here write. As I said opinion I don't give a shit about. That's your fantasy concoction. It's when they spew bile and outright lie that I have a problem with. You white knighting that is just sad.

As Blackwulf mentioned they basically split the ship instead of completely redesigning it. It was a no win scenario. The Cutlass was originally too small and with the implementation of 2.0 could no longer fly properly due to major design flaws. So the current cutlass is a slight redesign of...

Hey troll. Don't confuse me with some windowlicker you associate with. That said it will be a choice for most professions you can make if they ever get the AI up to that point. It sounds like it will take at least 3 major passes before that might happen but they are just guessing. First pass...

You're probably right. Some people made up their minds 2 years ago and it really wouldn't matter if the game launched since they would find something to complain about to prove they were right all along. I'll keep that in mind.

That word you keep using. It doesn't mean what you think it means. Suddenly any statement of facts or corrections are "parroting"? Parroting means you are regurgitating information (mindlessly). Right out of the dictionary. That is without any objectivity. Without any criticism. Prove to...

Have you read any of the DS sub-reddit or statements made? If not I can see why you think so but honestly you should know better by now. I'm going to say something if I see that it's objectively parroting someone else's statements. Walk softly in that sub-reddit or on the SA forums because...

Your opinion is your own as is mine. The difference between me and most everyone else is my opinion is an informed opinion. Theirs isn't. You have a right to your opinion. You don't have a right to your facts. I don't care about anyone's opinion anymore I only care about facts so when they...

Small correction Mist those statements were based on the currently implemented zone system and it will be true in 3.0 as well but it's going away. They have no idea how many people they can allow but it will work like Phasing. Their internal tests suggest they might be able to get hundreds to...

A big milestone toward an MMO, if that's what you are trying to achieve, is persistence. Since 2.4 there is now persistence in SC. DS, with his acolytes parroting it, claimed it was impossible. Yet here we are. It's why nobody should put any stock in what those people say. You really have...

COD Infinite Warfare is partly on rails and partly free play. Parts of the gameplay you are free to roam but you have objectives so in that sense it's like SQ42. You will also be able to pick side missions to complete. It's a bit like the original Wing Commander from that standpoint which IMO...

Best to not get your analysis from someone with mental illness Tearofsoul. Just saying. Peace.
