[The E]

I was bored recently so I downloaded the SC client. While I didn't encounter any crashes or wall glitches, other glitches remained: My Freelancer had parts of it disappear randomly while it was on the landing pad and lighting glitches were a constant presence.

Also, walking around is plain uncomfortable, your avatar doesn't walk as much as he hobbles around like a particularly strange rabbit, and the less said about the obtusiveness of the control scheme the better (Like, seriously, they couldn't fit the most important controls on a 360 pad without using L1 as a modifier button).

Try doing /flex and other stupid emotes, The E. See how you enjoy that immersive experience

I'm glad I didn't buy into this when I was tempted.

Every time I see videos of SC and laugh at the bugs, I feel an equal measure of sadness knowing that so much artistic talent is going down the drain

There are some really great people working on the game, clearly, but they're all being mismanaged to an unspeakable degree. With the right leadership, this project could have been something else. A shame.

I'm hoping that if CIG goes through bankruptcy someone will buy them and reign things in to eventually put out a workable product, or at least auction off assets and technologies to someone who would do a better job. But who knows, by the time people stop putting money into the game maybe Elite: Dangerous will be fun, so why worry?

Is there anything to do in the game yet? I've been meaning to try it out again but I don't want to sit through another 20gb download just to walk around a hanger or fly aimlessly through some asteroids.

How do you mangle the cryengine that was designed for first person shooting so bad, that you can't get the first person shooting to not work half of the time?

It makes me cry

the sweet sound of goonsong fills the air of a new game

I'm impressed someone wrote that. I needed that. Nice little laugh and that title card is pretty alright too.

It's an X-COM crossover. They're Thin Men.

At first I got excited when I saw this renamed thread (before I knew it was renamed).  I saw "Wing Commander 6"...

I'm afraid you would get something similiar, just without Wing Commander serial numbers filed off, it's the same developer. Hell, even the lore is similiar, WC had scary dogmatic aliens called Kilrathi (which kill with wrath), SC has scary dogmatic aliens called Vanduul (like Vandals, but the person saying the word has a stroke halfway through).

And also not actually like the Vandals how contemporary historians view them

Yup, got me too. It's a brilliant edit.
