The actual game doesn't matter, it's about selling a lifestyle and exploiting FOMO by artificially limiting supply (just like Rolex and Ferrari!).

Wait are we talking about Star Citizen or crypto and NFTs here?

While I would never say any of these things are inherently frauds and don't have possible merits, I would note that the historical record is pretty clear on how many fraud schemes have been unchanged for centuries and simply keep reoccurring with a new gloss. The "brilliance" of Bernie Madoff's scheme was how it was a simple ponzi scheme scaled up, nobody thought it could be because it would be obvious and somebody important would notice, right? (Parallels to WeWork?

It took CCP a decade to implement a "loot all" button in Eve Online, the most requested feature even before the game launched. It really isn't as simple as it might seem. The operation has to be atomic to prevent exploits while not causing too much traffic or server load.

Anyway, in a somewhat unexpected move, 3.17.2 saw massive netcode improvements, and with those, CIG raised the player cap per instance from 50 to 120. Morphologis managed to cram 114 players into a single spaceship. There are still a few desync issues, but it's now better with more than a hundred players than it was in the past with just a dozen. Also, Morphologis' connection might cause some of the issues, as he lives in Singapore and has to deal with a 400ms ping.

Throw another decade or two of tech at EVE and it really could be The Matrix someday.

Pretty decent for a minor release (though it is technically the Q3 patch as well). The player cap on the live servers was raised from 50 to around 100. They implemented dynamic caps based on server load, so one instance might top out at 120 players while another might only allow 80. That's a thing they want to start testing now as they need it for meshing in the future. 3.18, and with it the first major test of CIG's new graph database backend, could reportedly already enter closed testing next week.

wsippel · « **Reply #2588 on:** October 12, 2022, 05:52:49 PM »

People thought the graph database backend could enter testing in early August. August came and went, but it now finally happened: It's in closed alpha as of a few hours ago. Hope this shit works. A two month delay is pretty fucking great by Star Citizen standards. That said, CIG claimed it'd be public in November a few days ago, but they also expected the closed test to last for at least three months earlier this year, so that math doesn't really check out - I guess we'll see...

The launch of Star Citizen's biggest update has been a shambles, and players are frustrated: 'This is embarrassingly bad'

Quote

"I've been playing for hours, but I can't hail ATC, use my inventory, claim a ship, land when I do get through to ATC, accept any missions, or use any terminals," Star Citizen player dasinternet (opens in new tab) noted on the subreddit.

Quote

"Dozens of login attempts," AdmiralGrogan (opens in new tab) wrote on the official forums. "Managed to get in ONCE for 10 minutes and nothing could be interacted with. Terminals didn't work, Ship controls... missions... nothing. And then a 30k crash. This is embarrassingly bad, even by star citizen standards."

Another 12 years of development should fix this. Probably.

Here I've been making fun of the Gas Clouds and they were making the Crysis of Gas Clouds the entire time.

I love their mansplaining of technical shit

"The game runs on a computer. You see, a computer consists of various components. Graphical rendering uses your RAM. RAM stands for..."

Half a billion bucks and now they're saying "oh we might write some integration tests now so we don't break anything"

I'm really hoping the wheel issue with the PTV is addressed soon, it's basically impossible to complete a lap once you have debris on the field and you're racing other players.

Buggy racing indeed

To be fair this was a more substantial update to the thread than what CIG has put out for SQ42 since 2012.

Some great tidbits in there.

Quote

During the middle of the year this created technical issues (many not of our making), which impacted on the gaming experience and customer engagement.

Quote

It should not be surprising that this spend category is increasing as our game reaches a wider audience, despite, from our perspective, it only just getting out of the prototyping phase.
