Harvey656, do games w Cloud Imperium Games [Star Citizen developer] Undergoes Major Shake-Up to Hit Deadlines

I’m pretty happy with 4.0. They sucked all the features from it, and the missions are having problems. But the game fucking works, finally. Or at least it did during the first 24 hours of the patch. About fucking time.

That being said this whole shake up was clearly a cost saving strategy, since most of 2024 was not the best in term of making money, a LOT of people jumped shit this year, and I don’t blame them. CIG messed up so much this year. They have alot of goodwill to re-earn from the community and 4.0 is a start but only that.

northendtrooper,

They’re 3rd highest. Possibly could break to be 2nd highest year of funding. Wanted that the be clarified.

But I bet acquiring turbulent has put a slight bump in their expenses.

Since when does anything to do with star citizen involve a hard deadline. Roberts will never get finished. He lacks that basic ability.

There’s a deadline?

If anyone cares, I wrote a piece addressing this as well. It’s a classic story of a harvard executive not understanding video games, not understanding the industry, and failing at every opportunity. Jason Schreier was the one with the original scoop. Jason’s article is really meaty and worth the read.

Wonder woman is, in my opinion, an odd choice for a video game. I think it could be really good, and her rope would translate well to video game mechanics, but it doesn’t feel like Wonder Womans time to shine right now

ByteOnBikes,

Thanks for the write up! I had no idea this is why Suicide Squad was such a letdown.

Id argue that I felt the same about Batman not being translatable to a game during the 2000s. Video games based on comics were absolutely awful. Superman 64 was a nightmare, and Batman games were beat-em-ups or platformers.

But really smart creatives made the Arkham series work. So I’m optimistic that in the hands of strong visionaries, it’s absolutely possible.

Now, do I think WB has the capacity to make a good Wonder Woman game? Haha nope. Not after what they’ve shown in the last few years.

shyguyblue,

I’m imagining an LA noir style section involving the lasso of truth (?). And i haven’t seen the movies, but watched reviews, and there seems there might need enough upgrade paths to ramp up the combat elements. Maybe she gets with Batman to upgrade her suit?

Hell, even a tomb raider style origin story might work, if they don’t skimp on the writing team.

Zahille7,

I think making it a modern style Tomb Raider, mixed with some mechanics of the new God of War games would be best imo.

Like maybe you start out on Themyscira and you go through some training that the other Amazons go through as like a tutorial, and then the rest of the game has you going to secret temples and ruins spread around the world. An upgrade system could work seamlessly too; maybe sprinkle shrines to the gods throughout the maps that give you points so you can add “favors” or something that makes you stronger.

So it’s kind of an origin story showing how Diana becomes Wonder Woman, and how she has all those powers that other Amazons don’t.

BrundleFly2077,

A WW game with the same sort of vibe as the latest Indiana Jones might actually rock, now that I think of it. Speaking of Batman, Arkane and the right property in the right hands… that Great Circle game came outta nowhere as far as I was concerned.

You didn’t think Machine Games could make a great game about a character who hates Nazis?

BrundleFly2077,

🤣 I mean, point taken. I guess I just had too many prejudices built up around the idea of the license being used properly.

Their imagination exceeded mine by a wide margin.

YamahaRevstar,

It could be if they made a good game.

I’m not sure I could possibly be less interested in any game than I am with a wonderwoman game.

TheOctonaut,

How about if the idle animation is Gal Gadot in full IDF regalia singing “Imagine”?

WarlockLawyer,

I thought it was supposed to have the nemesis system from Shadow of Mordor and I am excited for that to return. Wonder woman takes down Cheetah only for her to return later with a new scar and upgrade based on how you beat her last

Better fire all their devs, that’ll get it done faster for sure

Somebody probably hit the wrong light switch on their way out of work Friday… Lol

HeyJoe, do games w PlayStation Says Outage Was An "Operational Issue"; Offers PlayStation Plus Members 5 Extra Days

The comment hate on that site is intense. I think the 5 days as repayment is fine. I guess some people take this stuff more seriously than me!

aiden,

that was kind of them though, usually you wouldnt get any repayment

Squizzy,

Its only for current members, I cant play games I bought online. I got a PS+ game, stopped my sub, paid for the game and couldnt play.

Glad to find out we aren’t the only fools that push to prod at 5pm on a Friday. Big companies like Sony do too!

“Operational issue”. Yeah, it stopped operating. ;)

Wooo. Add some melanin and see how fast those tools get removed.

Fiivemacs, do games w Modding Is Coming To Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Come on…someone fix the annoying combat system and make it like a game, not a chore. It’s the only reason I won’t play, the combat is just garbo

The nice part: you don’t have to engage into combat. You can talk your way out or maybe, what will suit you more, use poison and be friend with the shadow.

Terrific, even better than KCD 1.

It’s has insane graphics and is quite well made. I’ve been watching let’s plays even though I don’t particularly like the medieval setting.

It’s definitely much more polished than the first installment. I’ve played for around 40 hours so far and can probably count the bugs I’ve encountered so far on one hand.

NotSteve_,

Is it the same combat system as the first? No matter how hard I tried, it just wouldn’t click for me. Ended up modding myself invincible in order to beat the game…

I’ll do it again too if I need to because I love everything else about the game, but I’d prefer not to

zxy,

It’s marginally better, but mostly the same. Starts off incredibly hard, ends up incredibly easy.

Hubi,
@Hubi@feddit.org avatar

It gets too easy too fast IMO. I haven’t done much of the main quest yet but I’m already a invincible human tank and killing armored enemies with single hits. I might swap my sword with a lower tier weapon to get a bit of the challenge back.

bigboismith,

I’d say it’s slightly easier, but you should remember that avoiding combat is not only an option but sometimes recommended.

Edit. Also remember that when you get the opertunity to practice spar, do it. You don’t just train your ingame character but also yourself.
