Developing console versions with embezzled funds and BURN GDC edition


>Can the game be considered a full release?
No, for all intents and purposes, KSP should be considered still in early access state. The game is nowhere near being able to stand on its own legs both from a gameplay perspective (career mode is definitely not ready and balanced) and a stability perspective. There are still major bugs and memory leaks that shouldn't exist on a finished game.

>Are there big issues with the game?
Bugs and instability are still real and frequent problems, as with every product still in beta. Ask in thread for details.

>What are the devs doing?
Modified versions of popular mods are being included in the stock game while the game engine is being upgraded to its latest version. The next major update (1.1) is supposedly going to bring a complete overhaul of the GUI, be 64bit friendly, have a refined physics/heating/aero model and generally perform better. An external team with heavily questionable experience (Flying Tiger Entertainment) is being tasked with porting the game to PS4, XboxOne and Wii U. They seem to be rushing for an imminent deadline and they are also working on a version of the game that will be obsolete in a few weeks/months.

>Should I buy the game?
KSP is very enjoyable at first, then it usually needs to be modded to retain some sort of longevity, but doing so may dramatically decrease the stability of the game. You will be very familiar with the word "Oops!". The Developers, Squad, have shown many times that they can't handle the project and are trying to squeeze all the money they can with the least amount of effort and with controversial PR tactics. The general consensus at /kspg/ is that you should torrent the game, not because the game itself is unplayable, but because most of us agree that Squad does not deserve your money.

Your honor, it's clearly the case that the developers always openly invited piracy to the extent they could within the forums they were speaking. For you see, they knew they would never be able to complete a finished, marketable game, so instead they took in all donations as profit and then worked as charity for five years, slicing off little pieces of corporate profit as paychecks and bonuses and contracts no lawyer ever laid eyes on.

You see, they are still working on faith -- faith that money will continue pouring in the bank, and that, your honor, is what makes Squad's use of tax shelters, misappropriation, deception, malfeasance, embezzlement and fraud totally legal. KSP was never meant to be a finished game.

>some tweakables are symmetry independent, like unlocking steering for wheels.

Not enough info to call it yet but I can already feel the lack of QA clusterfuckery on the console versions

Sure is ironic a game developed within a new economic model designed to allow transparency and openness between developers and early investors has led to a incomplete version being developed on a console in complete secrecy with no input from the fanbase on differentiation between pc and console and no use of the fanbase to beta test the early versions even though the game itself was borne out of the idea that fans and early investors should be kept in the loop and involved.

And as long as we're pointing out mental discontinuities, let's examine exactly how FT's business model could possibly work.

Either they are being paid a flat fee for the conversion, or they have been promised a percentage of the profits from the console versions. In fact, the second verison is the only possibly legal one, as if they were paid a flat fee for the conversion, Squad would be double dipping on profits by making the PC funders fund the console versions.

So, let's assume they get a percentage of the profit and are working "for free" (which we know isn't true based on the length of time 1.1 has taken and their casual admittances that the devs have spent time working on 1.1)

If FT were working on this legal model, we would have seen or heard from them by now, as they would have a vested interest in promoting the game so they can maximize profit.

Any anons wanna tell me what I'm missing here?

Simple. Verizons smart cookies, or whatever the hell they're called, tracked you no matter what, even on an Argentinian basket weaving discussing website, such as 4 chan...

They've been doing it for years, look it up...

Just imagine all the other hands your data passes through, and how many companies pay to see what you do, just to display you targeted adds.

And then take solace in the fact that you don't even see those adds, because you use adblock.

You do use adblock, don't you?

Doesn't explain how someone could rack up valuable data by being on one end of a thread where people from all over the world can post and possibly say all kinds of bullshit.

Your cookie scenario would work if you are being tracked on your own computer, but how would that work from OP's side? How can OP (even assuming OP is posting as an employee of a big comms firm) make sure that the things people write are true and verifiable?

I don't know, it seems to me that your idea raises more questions than it answers

>Doesn't explain how someone could rack up valuable data by being on one end of a thread where people from all over the world can post and possibly say all kinds of bullshit.

doesnt matter if its bullshit or not, an IP is an IP. so if they can target that IP with ANY kind of data that they might be interested in, its worth money. http://www.dslreportscom/shownews/Concern-Arises-Over-Verizons-New-Sneaky-Stealth-Cookie-131034

>but how would that work from OP's side? How can OP (even assuming OP is posting as an employee of a big comms firm) make sure that the things people write are true and verifiable?
OP wouldnt give a shit if its right or wrong. its still data to sell tagged to an ip. or in worst cases, a UIDH.

eh, people die in my line of work, but only due to mistakes. heard of a guy a few years back that repsonded to a call to down lines at night or some shit. the guy was setting up his truck to fix the problems, and his truck came into contact with power. being that our shit isnt insulated (from power) the truck became energized, and therefore found him as the path of least resistance.

consequently it blew his feet off. he is lucky to have survived.

>>135441661
yep. just like everything else on the internet, always question it. even me...

oh, i should note, that room 641a shit... my crew and i once went to install a fiber optic cable into a bank from two directions once (whats called a ring) and were unable to push it into the building through the pipe all the way. hours later, the bank manager reluctantly let a single man into a room (supervised) not on any drawings to take the fibers in, and then pass them through to the room they were supposed to go to.

creepy shit.

Let me be a fucking smartass and tell you.

Everytime you charge your handy or laptop using a charging cable you use wireless eletricity.

The electricity from your plug has to go through a transformator and goes through a coil. That coil is next to another coil and "sends" it's electric energy into the other coil, without any wires connecting them. So the connection is wireless, but with a wire connecting both end.

imagine a coil of wires, next to another coil of wires, and then charge one side with ac voltage.
because of inductance, the uncharged side coil of wires will be electrified with power now.
its how power gets trasmitted to your home, the top wires (usually around 7k volts, low amps) are fed into a transformer (grey round can atop some poles)...
this intro voltage is in a coil inside the transformer. and the output coil is much more tightly wound, which steps down the voltage, but ups the amperage.
it is quite possible to create this same effect on a flat surface, as it has been possible for years to steal power from the power company just by laying one (or a few) extension cords directly parallel to the power lines above. although nowadays they can catch the gaps with the RFID meters, so its kinda pointless...

inductance is a helluva thing...

Good and evil might as well be fictional. Morality is relative, just like everything else in this crazy universe. Now that we have the capability to end our own species, it's pretty plain that we need to kick this can as far as we can. There are no guarantees another species will ever leave this planet. It may well be that neither will we, and our only legacy will be the machines we create.

Requesting Scott Manley in a convenience store in L.A.

>he doesn't have a .txt file with all the copypastas on it

I saw Scott Manley at a convenience store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be an asshole and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.

He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Snickers bars in his hands without paying.

The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by hulloing really loudly.
