Probably risk, recalls/safety etc. Probably letting the smaller fish try first while conducting long term internal testing

Why are you so mad?

Okay sure let’s revisit this when SQ42 launches, there’s already an hour of live gameplay on youtube

And another studio builds two games at once with less funding and it’s unacceptable? Lol

Haha fantastic work. For any tricky piece of code many devs write unit tests so you can be more confident in that piece

How did you pick up coding? What was challenging? Were you stumped by any major issues in development?

How long has GTA 6 been in development, and at what cost?

Which game? SQ42 or SC? Neither have been in development as long as modern AAA titles

Lower development costs and faster to develop than GTA 6 so far, with more to show for it. Don’t give up hope

Was only recently announced but sure

Amazing things happen when you get 100x more funding than expected

No release in sight? Squadron 42 is preparing for publishing and in polish stage, as mentioned in article

Does this include code

They never bought NFTs, they built a website for trading NFTs. Very minimal expense that’s already written off as it got banned by the US govt

Oh yeah the trading card business too, plus all the homewares now. Currently eating dumplings out of a pokemon licenced bowl manufactured by gamestop

Over 4 billion cash is shown on the balance sheets on their latest filings too

My local stores sell steam games and PC parts, I don’t think you understand the business model… When was the last time you visited a store?

The stock price is not declining, and is up for the year. What’s the problem?

The company as a whole is profitable with not a dollar of debt, where is this staggering hemmorage?

Consider how much these social media companies would need to gamify social media to make it not count as social media legally

Only 3% higher than average 4090?

Any evidence to the claim Facebook 1 was an intentional password gathering site? Many websites fail basic security through incompetence or lack for respect and care. Where is the evidence it was malicious?

Proton and wine babyyy

You surely misread completely

That is cooked. I have to check this out. I have only ever played bf1 on linux

Bf1??? How?

Verrry good to know

The threat model is stolen/hacked/“forgotten” password. 2FA in the password manager is probably fine

I use bitwarden

You have to pay for 2fa… try again

I then keep another, “higher security” dongle at home with more-sensitive keys.

Noted :)

Ah yes a “throw money at it” solution

As long as they are long… better not be a few hours each

30-40 hour game length each? Sure

Would you mind sharing what you think a crunch is if not for working overtime?

I’m a dev too so well done and fuck you for being well compensated? Hahah

After citizencon in 2 weeks

Read the mythical man month. Hiring more people does NOT get software projects completed faster

Did you read the article? Pretty well explained

Yes

Sure but it’s 2 weekends? I’m sure there would be exceptions

Crunches are regular and unfortunately common in software development. The difference here is star citizen devs are well compensated and given time in lieu

Don’t understand the negative response, all devs are being compensated for it and being given extra leave
