    This vid was cool. Still some rough edges but looked interesting Reminded me of the spinning ship scene in interstellar (one of my favorite scenes in any space film).

    Fallout 4

    This discussion might be better off in the CF thread but screw it, just don't tell amod. I think that if they don't mess it up CF will move the MMO genre forward both in terms of showing how much fun it can be with true sandbox control over the world and relaxing people's beliefs of the...

    Fallout 4

    In the existing Skyrim/FO3 type game a coop game or ~100 person multiplayer on a map that resets often would be amazing. But they could make a much more sandbox-driven open world game that would be great as an MMO. I've listed out several incredible ways this couold happen in the ESO thread...

    Fallout 4

    I don't think BGS has any power to intervene in ZOS's product. Only Zenimax does. Imagine if you built a beautiful backyard landscape with amazing brick inlays, a built-in bbq and firepit and a jacuzzi. Then a year later you build one for your dad. Then a year later for your cousin. You get a...

    Fallout 4

    I'm not sure what argument you're making here. The level of consultation that Todd Howard had with ESO is unknown, as is his true opinion. My guess? He took a look at how ZOS was fucking over his franchise and distanced himself as much as possible.

    Fallout 4

    First but probably not the last time I have felt compelled to note this: the team that made ES1-5, FO3 and FO4 had almost nothing to do with ESO. Their parent company, Zenimax, stood up an entirely different team and gave them a massive amount of money and one of the best IPs in gaming to make...

    In terms of network CPU usage and traffic, isn't SC closer to planetside than Eve?

    Mad Max: Fury Road (2015)

    If Furiosa was a male it'd have to be a gay male, because otherwise you know Furioso would be taking them bitches to his parent's house just to fuck them all. But really, it only makes sense with Furiosa as a female because only a hot young female could identify enough with the most well...

    Fallout 4

    I'd love it if BGS went to their Daggerfall routes and made cities/towns even more procedural. Make it such that every town that starts is essentially the same as a player built town with some NPC "owner". The player could then either take over that town, raid it or completely demolish it. The...

    I just figured he meant in regards to a notional massive space battle occuring in SC.

    For me it's not a question of trust. It's a question of truth.

    Sounds like Furry can easily win this argument by providing evidence that the devs have indicated server CPU, rather than bandwidth, is the primary issue with Eve's handling of large amounts of ships in a dense area.

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    agree 100% with everything you said. I don't follow it closely but everytime I hear of player caps the reasoning CiG peddles to the koolaid drinkers is, "Our models are so incredible you'd need a $2000 machine to have more than 45 ships on your screen at once.". I call shenanigans on that...

    She's decent for a nerd producer, but I always felt like she has the right kind of face for a sci fi chick. She's like Miranda Lawson's less attractive sister.

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    Re: the player caps, instancing, manning ships etc. It'll all work out in alpha when people actually get to enjoy the game and as long as CiG is open to changing whatever napkin design they have now they'll tweak it just fine. ArcheAge has similarly sized ship encounters and it's pretty fun...

    The small size per zone is a bunch of bullshit. Their reasoning was that their shit rendered so hot people's PCs couldn't handle it, but I call shenanigans on it. It's probably server-side pussy-footing. Personally I think massive space battles are awesome, but I can respect Chris Roberts for...

    I always felt like the opposite was true. It'd be better for gamers if the funding between the two franchises was more even, IMO.

    Virtual Reality

    I don't think OVR has said it won't be, but I imagine they'll drop compatibility with the DK2 as soon as they can. Not only should they not spend any effort or money ensuring backwards compatibility with a devkit, but they really don't want people running around using what will be a vastly...

    I think the bigger question for the whales isn't whether they will be able to dominate people like me out the gates but rather whether the released form of Star Citizen matches the vision they had when they broke out their check book. Like Mist says this is still mostly a PVE game, but it is...

    Yep. Skipping through that I'm wondering, "Who wants to do any of this shit?" Rule #1 of making a game, it has to be fun. Not all the time, but it has to be generally fun.

    Maybe. Or i poop sock and get a better ship in two weeks after PU release and destroy whales who bought an under powered ship.three years before releqse. Really it depends on how much p2w they have post release. Most whales will keep shelli g out cash for a competitive edge and as long as...

    Im not even sure if there will be a real mmo aspect to this game. I still feel like the PU will be more like freelancer multiplayer. I guess we will see in two or three years.

    Why does Oldman's character look a few years younger than him, and sound 20 years older? edit: The admiral bishop thing cracked me up.

    The Flash

    Really enjoyed the episode. I don't understand why Henry Allen jetted out from a in-character or meta perspective. With Dr. Wells gone there is a bit of a void that I thought Henry Allen could fill, and John Wesley Shipp stole every scene he was in.

    I'm glad they moved on. The tension between the team members is yawn worthy. I hope the gravestone is Laurel. She contributes nothing to the show and never has. Diggle needs a new helmet. Going from Deathstroke to Raz and then to Damian is a step down, but Neal McDonough is a great actor so...

    Virtual Reality

    Sure, it might slip. They're trying to mass produce a new product that is full of brand new parts. I doubt it'll slip beyond Q2 though. And as we approach the CV1 release the value, support and available experiences for the DK2 will probably continue to diminish because no one will want to...

    Virtual Reality

    Bottom line: Like I said before, if you want to get in on VR as a user, just wait for CV1. Right now the user experience is subpar because the SDK is constantly changing, so you can't easily run through all the historical demoes and games that folks are playing.

    There's primarily three things that cause VR sickness (not motion sickness!!): technical errors, design issues and a disconnect between what you see and what you feel. The technical errors are numerous and VR experiences getting even one of the following elements wrong are enough to turn...
