That's a good point. It's not just in software development either. The disconnect between the person who had the idea, the person who is managing the building of the idea, and the person who is actually making the idea real, is huge. The person who had the original idea either doesn't have...

I think so. I think it falls back on a UK thing? Here's our American equivalent. This one goes out to all my homies at Yale. Disclaimer: I did not actually attend Yale. Nor, if I did, would I have had said homies...

I see that. I saw a guy running for a bus the other day. It was hilarious because he couldn't run proper due to... wardrobe choices. The things people will do for "fashion" amaze me.

That doesn't take into account simultaneous development though. Last I heard, they had over 360 employees. Not everyone can be working on the same part of the game. Some are working on SQ42, some on 3.0, some on 3.1, some on ships, some on sound, etc. I'm sure the list goes on and on. Once...

The big question is..... omg, omg, omg, omg, are we finally going to get a release date?! also... taking votes on the holiday live stream concept. Vulture, mechsuit, or F8?

Hahaha! I must have reloaded SC 10 times before I came across that little gem. FAAAAck! The game keeps bugging out when I sit down and won't let me out!

Well, I guess it really comes down to the money. Doesn't it always? There are other options as well that you may not have considered. You could upgrade the Hornet Ghost to the Hornet Tracker for $15. It's an exploration ship. Then you have a somewhat capable fighter (at least as capable as...

My sentiments exactly. The game is progressing. It may not be progressing as fast as we all want, but it is moving forward. I also think that things are about to speed up exponentially now that these major systems are (more or less) in place. There's also the fact that everything is pushing...

You're not wrong. At the heart of it, I guess I am complaining about the crying... That's crying squared. It's exponential tear growth...

So lately, I have been seeing more and more people voicing their dissatisfaction with SC. They have been getting on 3.0 test servers and what they are finding is leading them either flaming CIG, quit, or both. I have been following the 3.0 release closely. I haven't played it yet despite...

Quoted for truth.

The sad part is, some superfan will probably buy it... I suppose if you really gotta catch them all. I knew a guy that spent over $30,000 in the ArcheAge cash shop. Some people have more money than sense...

For me, I chose the Max. It wasn't a difficult choice though since I actually have the Aquilla.... and a Carrack... and a 315p... Honestly though, I might be getting rid of it. When I purchased the MAX, I was really excited for the concept. It had a spectacular power to weight ratio because...

It's the same for me. The addition of first person play was what made a backer out of me. It's not that I am specifically into FPS games. Quite the opposite. It's the possibilities that it provides. When I first saw the kickstarter, it was a ship avatar. That didn't interest me at all. It...

Add in the later VR support and we might finally have the mech fighting virtual reality experience that I've wanted since I was a kid.

I know it can be hard to watch at times, but "feature creep" is what has taken this game from the ship avatar in 2012 to what we are looking at today. I looked into the game back when the kickstarter was going on. It looked interesting, but not interesting enough to invest. One of the main...

My god that would be amazing. Hell, you could do that with gaming rigs in general. The only problem is, people suck. I stopped building PC's for friends for that very reason. People mindlessly overclock everything because a website said it would fix everything. People download viruses...

I am right there with you. I think one of the main driving forces behind backer dissatisfaction is a result of three things. The first is not knowing how incredibly easy it is to make most of these regurgitated games. The second is how much extra work it is to deviate from the industry...

Graphics cards can be both convoluted and counter-intuitive at times. For instance, a gtx 980ti is generally about as good as a normal gtx 1070. The "ti" is generally where the major performance is at. In my opinion a gtx 1070ti should last you at least 2 years. It should also be around a...

Unfortunately, I can't give you much advice on the AMD side. I tried AMD cpus shortly after they arrived on the scene. I burned out two of them before tucked tail and ran back to Intel. I've been there ever since. The same was for GPUs except the amd issue was with drivers. So for the last...
