    Video: Im close to losing it... 6yrs is just too long.

    I just remembered the last *big delay* for a game that drove everybody crazy...and how the game was so much better for being delayed! It really allowed the dev teams to knock it out of the park...at the time everybody was upset, but just under 2 years later the game all blew us away. Any other...

    Knowledge - Where does the Star Citizen hate come from?

    You beat me to that quote...that is a classic! The other thing I want to point out is...there is a great line from an old sci-fi book, "Voyage to Yesteryear" (by James P. Hogan): "Success is like a fart. Only your own smell good." By successfully funding his project to the tune of almost $200...

    So remember that time . . .

    This is one in a series of webpages that I always found helpful in understanding septic systems...thank god I'm on sewer now. https://extension.psu.edu/on-lot-wastewater-systems-the-basics I've never watched any of these videos, but maybe they can be helpful...

    Video: Im close to losing it... 6yrs is just too long.

    Can't wait for Cyberpunk 2077! Yeah, I can't get into the Witcher 3 as much as I thought, either...I think it has to do with the fact the controls are a bit wonky for me, and I don't like 3rd person games as much as I like the first person view (like Skyrim and Morrowind...). Edit --> hey, if...

    Video: A reminder that Star Citizen is in alpha!

    In my mind, this is definitely pre-alpha, with "a layer of icing on the top" that makes it playable. It doesn't have anywhere near all the features it will have when released, and the features it does have contain bugs and there is no optimization. However, knowing all the excitement people...

    So remember that time . . .

    Damn! (Just to clarify, when I hit the "Like" button, it really means, "I'm in sympathy with your problems...") Did you say you have a septic system? That might mean you have some more work & investigation ahead of you...

    Video: CIG smacks down Crytek

    I was thinking to myself last night about how stuff in the GLA didn't make sense, like that indemnification clause, etc. After thinking about it some more, it all started making sense when I went back to the original context. In Nov 2012 (when the GLA was signed), CryTek was the big guy on the...

    3.0 Darkness in general

    Smart policy. Especially if it is a Sabre Raven, I will shoot that thing *immediately* !

    3.0 Darkness in general

    Yes, if you hit Esc, go into options, and then the graphics tab (second from left) the first setting is gamma. I have it set smack in the middle, for most games, though, I have it set up at about 75%, since I can't stand wandering around dungeons and cities and running into things...I may just...

    I was going to jokingly ask if somebody stole this vodka...

    https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/06/world/europe/vodka-gold-bottle-stolen-copenhagen-denmark.html But, it's probably better if I just don't ask. :)

    CIG Responds to Crytek

    Going into this, my thoughts were either CIG had really incompetent lawyers, or CryTek is hiding something or twisting the facts. It seems that it is CryTek who is hiding something and twisting the facts. Getting to the meta: 1. I can't believe that CryTek's lawyers would have brought forth...

    CIG Schedule Report for 2018

    Empires? Spot on! And another reason why Crytek is suing, oh boy, the work that CIG is doing, using CryEngine as the starting point, is nothing less than monumental...and worth a shit ton of money. The fact is, CIG is going way beyond where any other game currently is. Look at how little...

    Enjoy the 'Talk. You know, I've got 2 Starfarers as loaners that I've never ever flown...I guess that is my weekend project!

    She works hard for the money

    The pro's are it can carry a LOT of cargo The con's are that you can't land everywhere...and if you do land at some of the mining outposts or research facilities, they often don't have a whole lot of stuff (in terms of SCU amount) to buy. Most times, you are better off with a smaller ship that...

    Video: Star Citizen Today - Jan 4th

    Best (i.e., clearest and most concise) info I've found as of this morning regarding the Intel chip flaw: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/03/b...T.nav=top-news Summary: 1. There are two critical chip bugs/flaws that have been found. 2. Of these two flaws, there is a fix for one, and there...

    Hmmm...not many people ram at Oliver. Sounds like maybe Virtual Ass and his minions are at it again?

    Clive Johnson CIG dispel some myths that get repeated quite a lot...

    So, regarding the spoiler, I guess nobody has the answers. However, remember that running just Arena Commander or Star Marine (or the PU offline) shows what your system is capable of, if it didn't have to worry about calculating all the other players stuff... Optimization is always the last...
