    Creatives vs. Engineers

    The ooh shiny I was referring to is the feature creep and ever shifting priorities.

    Creatives vs. Engineers

    Here is the biggest problem, imho, they are using the "ooh shiny" method of development. the second biggest problem is they have no clear definition of what finished or even beta looks like.

    CitCon flair, mostly, revealed.

    Next year is much more likely than December.

    CitCon flair, mostly, revealed.

    I don't recall them saying next, but it is an obvious choice. You need Nyx to connect to Odin, which is probably done but I doubt we'll see it before SQ42 is released.

    I'm going to need my Liberator sooner, instead of later. :)

    Ship Showdown

    For me, it's flair for my ships.

    This will be Citcon number 4 after they put the Carrack through the jump point.

    CitCon flair, mostly, revealed.

    Looks like Citcon is just more yammering about Pyro. Not talking about what's after Pyro, not Squadron 42. They certainly won't tell us when. Yawn!

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    I thought the pacing was tedious. The dialog, when there was dialog, was both poorly written and poorly delivered. The saber fights were poorly choreographed. The characters just weren't likable. The amount of retcon required was high. What a waste of David Tenant's, and Ray Stevenson's...

    CIG announced changes to PTU Waves Eligibility

    Not the newest assets. You may, or may not, get to fly those. There was usually a nice big wad of cash to start the PTU with. Go to the ship store and buy the ship you want to try. You want to know how the Phoenix flies, go to Loreville. Looking at the Valkyrie, go to Area 18. Want to try out...

    best game controllers? (gamepad)

    Starfield and SC, most RPG and MMO the Azeron or maybe the Razor keypad are my suggestions then. The precision of mouse and keyboard with the ease of a controller without sacrificing the buttons you need.

    best game controllers? (gamepad)

    What is your intended use? I like this https://store.azeron.eu/azeron-keypads#keypad=cyborg paired with my Logitech mouse for most situations I'd use a controller with my PC. I haven't had any issues with a steelseries controller with a PC (other than I don't like the lack of buttons on a...

    B5: the Road Home

    Not what we were told was coming.

    CIG announced changes to PTU Waves Eligibility

    One of the things I use the PTU for, other than to look at what's new and fixed, is to test drive ships I don't own. I don't amass huge amounts of money in the PU or in REC in AC and AC has limited functionality. The PTU, in addition to IAE and Fleet Week is how I evaluated ships for purchase...

    CIG announced changes to PTU Waves Eligibility

    Changing the order of priority for PTU to prioritize testers instead of people that have provided significant monetary support isn't the best solution, IMHO, but it is a legitimate solution. To then sell access to anyone that wants it, regardless of their play and test habits, contradicts the...

    CIG announced changes to PTU Waves Eligibility

    The hangar module would have to be rewritten from the ground up. While I believe bringing back the hangar module is a good idea, it is also scope creep I don't believe we need. They did have "personal hangars" in the tracker and it was supposed to go with the cargo refactor, that no longer...

    CIG announced changes to PTU Waves Eligibility

    You missed where I suggested Subscribers be moved, like High Admiral, to wave 4. Why move one without the other? This way people aren't paying $10 just to check out the new hotness. Leaving Subscribers as Wave 1, regardless of their playing, puts CIG in the same position they are claiming...

    I don'tcremember where CIG posted that data. It has been a while. It was in that neighborhood. Being in wave 1 has been, and is still listed as being, a concierge perk longer than it's been a subscriber perk. From...

    From https://support.robertsspaceindustries.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002542733-Concierge-Levels-and-Rewards It's been a listed Concierge perk longer. (Still is listed as such.)
