I dont know about you guys, but I've been enjoying the game for over a year now. It's absolutely amazing.
Indeed you have. Posting about all this glorious game's loveable bugs. Even the bugs in Star Citizen far outclass the bugs in other games! :D

Few games have given me this much amusement for this long, without having actually released anything worthwhile.

Re: Wing Commander 6: The Undiscovered Release Date (Star Citizen Thread)
The Oxygen, Breathing & Stamina systems have started being implemented and soon we will have players begin to carry their own oxygen supplies or risk turning blue in the face. The system should handle everything from how the oxygen tank delivers breathable air to the helmet, to how the player breathes said air and how his body converts that into actual usable stamina. At the same time, all actions are being converted to consume this stamina, so you will want to keep your character supplied with oxygen if you want them to be capable of performing various actions.

Citizen has defeated wild samich!
Citizen has reached LVL 2!

Citizen wants to learn "Poop" but Citizen can't learn more than four moves.

Delete an old move?
  • Eat
  • Sleep
  • Breathe
  • Pilot Space Winnebago

Congratulation Citizen forgot "Breathe" and learned "Poop"

Citizen has fainted.

Citizen used "Poop!"  The attack was ineffective.

I'm of the opinion we should just figure out if we can extract models from SC and make a Squadron 42 mod. Just to embarrass people. :p


Actually anything we did in that direction would get us massive amounts of publicity.

Sad thing is, if I had the money and hardware ... I'd be wanting to support StarCitizen.  Maybe that's a bad idea, but I've always at least generally liked, if not loved, Chris Robert's games.

Aesaar exported the Gladius to see if we could use it in BP as a Kulas replacement. It was a 1.5 million poly model. There was a 50K poly spherical doodad behind the pilot's head (where no one was going to see it). It turned out to be too inefficiently modelled to be able to optimise the poly count so might as well rebuild from scratch.

Pshaw, 1.5 million? Efficient modeling? The CryEngine can handle infinite polygons!

Well, MatthTheGeek already beat them to the dogfight module years ago.
Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Codethulhu GitHub wgah'nagl fhtagn.

schrödinbug (noun) - a bug that manifests itself in running software after a programmer notices that the code should never have worked in the first place.

When you gaze long into BMPMAN, BMPMAN also gazes into you.

"I am one of the best FREDders on Earth" -General Battuta

<Aesaar> literary criticism is vladimir putin

<MageKing17> "There's probably a reason the code is the way it is" is a very dangerous line of thought. :P
<MageKing17> Because the "reason" often turns out to be "nobody noticed it was wrong".
(the very next day)
<MageKing17> this ****ing code did it to me again
<MageKing17> "That doesn't really make sense to me, but I'll assume it was being done for a reason."
<MageKing17> **** ME
<MageKing17> THE REASON IS PEOPLE ARE STUPID
<MageKing17> ESPECIALLY ME

<MageKing17> God damn, I do not understand how this is breaking.
<MageKing17> Everything points to "this should work fine", and yet it's clearly not working.
<MjnMixael> 2 hours later... "God damn, how did this ever work at all?!"
(...)
<MageKing17> so
<MageKing17> more than two hours
<MageKing17> but once again we have reached the inevitable conclusion
<MageKing17> How did this code ever work in the first place!?

<@The_E> Welcome to OpenGL, where standards compliance is optional, and error reporting inconsistent

<MageKing17> It was all working perfectly until I actually tried it on an actual mission.

<IronWorks> I am useful for FSO stuff again. This is a red-letter day!
* z64555 erases "Thursday" and rewrites it in red ink

<MageKing17> TIL the entire homing code is held up by shoestrings and duct tape, basically.

I wonder if that sphere has something to do with viewpoints and HUDs. Considering their screwy ways of doing things it could be possible...

First reply on that topic:-

This is awesome! Downloading now.  :D

Chris has to try hard if he's gonna beat the FSO space combat gameplay.

Thinking about getting serious? Nothing says ‘I care’ like the rugged Aegis Vanguard deep space fighter, a favorite among long range mercenary pilots and well-armed explorers alike. With firepower and the ability to get you and your co-pilot out of the most dangerous situations, the twin-boom Vanguard design is a favorite from Earth to the frontier.

By popular request, we are also making available the Battlefield Upgrade Kits (BUKs) for the Vanguard line, which allow captains to swap between variants on a single chassis. Please note that these upgrades are not available in the current alpha build of Star Citizen; their functionality will be added in a future patch.

Nothing says "I love you" like "Can I interest you in these jpegs?  Only 250$!"

Alternatively: "I gave 250$ to my cult because I love you!"
