Star Citizen - Chris Roberts, lots of spaceship porn, lots of promises

I’ve decided I’m getting into the space game racket.

Here’s a screenshot of the alpha. Accepting 5-figure donations.

Hmm that looks photoshopped… also, are the maps procedurally generated?

They ARE procedurally generated! I even wrote a function so no two stars end up adjacent to each other. I’m quite proud of it.

Will it support Oculus Rift?

You can wear an Oculus Rift while you play it. You might want to take it off once in a while to look at the screen.

In your game can you get space health insurance but sometimes it doesn’t pay your space medical bills so you have to get on your space phone and argue with them? I’ve always dreamed of a game with that level of realism.

I’ll put that in the to-do list. I am planning to implement a zero-G toilet that occasionally clogs with tribble hair.

So tribble pooping is done?

If Star Citizen is the template here, the keyword is “planned”, not “done”. ;)

I’ll play it.

Can I buy an ASCII art spaceship?

Well, at the moment all you can do is move the ship across the map in one direction, blow yourself up, or quit. Think that’s enough for a decent Let’s Play?

The Destroyer class can be yours for $300: 3====>

Please don’t copy-paste. You’re on the honor system!

I’m selling a longer, girthier Destroyer class for just $275.

For $250 you can feast your eyes on my rigid frame ribbed Destroyer.

System requirements? I hope it’s not Strike Commander all over again.

Thanks for linking that anandtech review. It has the info I’d seen before on write endurance.

On the other hand, the 10 drive writes per day write endurance rating is far higher than most consumer SSDs get; 0.3 DWPD is more typical.

I would like to partner with you on making a port to all TI-81s and TI-83s.

yeah, not enough fidelity. needs moah asterisks
