[video from 2016]

It's like pulling out all the mashed up rotten guts from inside the dead horse, then putting it inside a fur coat to pretend that it's a fresh horse that can once again be beaten into mush.


It has a name.
It's called the edgy newfag syndrome. :)

Was digging through my old YouTube favorites and found this, figured those of you still lurking in this thread for whatever reason would get a kick out of it:


Oh yeah the Furry coalition, I actually wonder if they're still around or if they're more sane than the whale-kin.

This reminds of me that recent Raph Colantonio tweet harkening about gameplay innovation over graphical fidelity. Basically all this shit is walking from point X , picking up a box from point Y and slowly walking it back to point X.

That looks so fucking janky

Reentry effects start 1000km above surface

White HUD color so you can't see it in the atmosphere (where you really need it)

Ship hovers right above surface with no thruster effects or any dust being kicked up

Ship door opens, sinks in the ground. Then the physics engine kicks in and bumps the ship up. Player walks up and looks back and sees ship is now balanced on the cockpit and the door with the ship legs in dangling in the air

Physics bugs out when the player walks back into the ship

Player places down box with animation but the box snaps into a different position

After take off and panning around the ship, some ship parts flicker in and out of existence

Door hydraulics clips through the wall when opening

Player slows down to a stop when not EVA thrusting, but no counter-thrust is visible

Ship has thruster effects visible but not moving away from the player

Can anyone take this shit seriously? To be fair, it looks a lot better than the last footage I saw in terms of presentation and smoothness. But is that really what they want to show? Picking up a fucking box and walking it into your spaceship?

In the true spirit of autism that Star Citizen exhibits, I would also like to add I am intensely triggered by the heart rate staying around 56-57 even when carrying a box in the most stressful way possible, (holding it at the sides, arms away from the body) and when going out into space. That shit's going up to 80-90 at least under those conditions, even accounting for exceptional physical conditioning.

If I wanted to ferry cargo from A to B I could just play ED, a game that's been out for years now and slightly less janky.

I must once again remind y'all of the stellar fanbase of this game and their literary masterpieces. I mean I think I posted it before but this is "stop teh poisson", "doom marine fanfic" and "love may bloom on the battlefield" levels of amazing so I can't help it.

In the last 500 years, the Fourth Stimpire has dominated four systems, which it has united into one starzone, Stimsis. The Fourth Stimpire has origins from the Ten Empire War in which 10 of the United Stimpires revolted against each rules. All empires except for the fourth swore freedom upon their citizens. There is no free speech in the Fourth Stimpire, and all self-controlled transportation has been made illegal without undergoing painful medical verification methods, in which arteries are severed without pain resistant, operated entirely by machines. The way they work claim to be the most hygenic and healthy way possible, but these machines often rub against pain points, causing great deals of pain to patients. The heart is then extracted from the body and placed into a glass grinding machine. Various energy centers are also dissected and replaced with dangerous transplants. After the painful, 52 hour surgical procedure, patients will then have to use a fused guidance tool, which pumps painful resistors into the body every 2 hours. The pain they have caused is so bad, the victim would freeze in a tense position. They would then collapse afterwards.

Sexual stimulation in any way within the grounds of the Fourth Stimpire is strictly prohibited, and anyone detected even touching their sexual organs will be subjected to a penectomy or if the offender was a female, they would then have a razor inserted into their ovaries. They would pump a blue solution into the womb until the stitchings burst. Offenders would also be forced to show their operated areas in public, and they would always harass and punch them to a pulp, against their will.

Otherwise, offenders would be tazed with the worst type of electricity in the systematic district, causing so much pain, the victim would scream and flail in madness. The pain would also triple every second, but no death would be incurred. This is also used in combat against enemy units, which is why all UEE forces must wear the upgraded suit to block this effect.

However, enertainment is also questionable in UEE grounds. Sporting events end with the losing team being rounded into a grinder and shredded on live television, boxing matches end with the loser having their hands removed without anasthesia, flight races would end with the losers having their arms and legs removed, then being injected with insanity, for entertainment. People are also forced into these events, by undergoing a painful 127 hour procedure which involves tweaking the muscles so they will not listen to brain commands, and then having a painful drug injected which also causes madness if the player is not sporting. This is all for entertainment, and anyone not watching any of it during sporting times and cheering for the winning team, they will be imprisoned into galactic camps.

Snuff films are also broadcast, and actors are actually murdered just for entertainment. Stealth droids also guide these forced actors into behaving exactly as the director dreams, otherwise they will be punished by being placed into a macerator and having their execution written into the film. Any film that does not feature someone being murdered will be burned and the entire crew behind it will be executed in the most grotesque way possible - vivisection.

All executions are broadcast, and anyone who misses even a millisecond, even by blinking, will be executed. All citizens must boo to the person being executed, and the family is gathered to be injected with eternators, which cause pain forever, making them immoral but feeling the pain tenfold every millisecond. They cannot pass out, but they will feel like it forever.

Conquests by this Stimpire end in the planet being razed, and all the citizens being executed in the same way as their citizens are. The planet is then destroyed and all remnants of it are removed, and any memories of it will be erased instantly from civil minds. People who are also killed are also erased from memories, and all memories of them, including toys and pictures, are destroyed.

Prisoners undergo 40,000 years of relentless and endless labor, and anyone not complying is sentenced to the eternator injection. All prisoners injected with eternators are placed into capsules and launched into far space, then the room is closed tight to ensure maximum insanity. Some prisoners are also subjected to the removal of blood, the lungs, the liver, the genitals, the skeleton, the muscles, the eyes, and even the injection of pressure. Prisoners sentenced to pressure chambers are locked in until they are inflated to a high level. The decompression is then stopped to make sure they are inflated and uncomfortable.

Children born on the 14th of July are subjected to the removal of their skeleton and an implant of a silver liquid to replace it. The nervous sysem is also injected in various parts to ensure it is five times more sensitive than the average.

Restaurants also are ordered to serve civil meat, and anyone attending must give themself up to be cooked into a grotesque meal. They are cooked alive, undergoing extreme pain, and are then subjected to industrial grinders and blenders. The Stimpire orders at least 1 million citizens to be dispatched every day, as they are afraid the population may overthrow them. But only one planet is cared for, and the rest are banned from eating, drinking, talking, using technology, touching anyone, wearing unauthorized clothes, touching buildings, or walking a centimeter out of designated routes. Civil enforcers are on every planet, and they are engineered so that they are 40 times larger than the 300 quadrillion population. At least 7 billion die every 12 hours under this rule.

Thoughts are also surveyed, and anyone who does not think anything to loving the Stimpire with more than their capabilities will be sentenced to a prison. Prisoners who are punished for this violation will meet their greatest fear, only to have it amplified so they will turn insane as they imagine it exactly as they fear it. They then undergo a painful extraction of all fluids, to be replaced by a toxin which causes permanent irritation. The unknown substance keeps the subject aging normally, except they will never die. Prisoners punished in this way are unable to be reverted, despite many efforts, and they will never be able to be disposed.

The sickening truths have been revealed only today, and invigilation teams are still investigating the truths without setting foot in the galactic space of this sickening empire.

"stop teh poisson"

:) Hey man, I will be forever in your dept if you could explain what this refers to.
It rings a bell and I can vaguely remember it was hillarious, but I can't make the connection in my mind and google is no help at all. Old Codex lore?

Really old Codex lore, I can try to dig that up tomorrow or so, but it was some forum RP gone wrong. A 'dexer went ahead and "RPed" that something, an apple or some shit, was poisoned, and then everyone else was forced to react that they were actually dying and that was an actual line from one of the players.

A very very abridged version of the 2+ hour presentation. It was so successful that they're not going to do it this year!
