ever notice how everyone they shove in front of a camera over at CIG looks old? fair enough a holder of a senior position in a company is likely going to be of a senior age and senior people are knowledgeable for the cameras but I can't really recall ever seeing anyone at CIG who looked younger than 30. haggard old sandy is the best we get in terms of female eye-candy; i bet they actually would quite like to have a nice looking younger girl presenting things sometimes but can you imagine monkey-skeleton sandy allowing that? LOL

30 isnt old...and they have had many people under 30 on shows and in the companies.

30 isn't old and I'm sure they do have exactly as you say. from my experience though; i know if CIG release a video, i'd lay evens on the hosts having a combined age of around 104 and an average weight of 300lbs. always just some disgusting fat-looking, old slob from the times i've watched. as well as the aforementioned scrawny bint sandy

OK so after the latest mini-ATV, they talk about how far away they are placing Hurston (as if it will ever actually arrive with the next patch - it won't). This got me thinking. Without too much thought or research here's my logic, please correct me:

KSP (https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=276&v=mXTxQko-JH0) recon that the first noticeable jitter caused by 32bit floating point errors is at 20k (meters or game units). Since SC uses 64 bit positioning then the corresponding radius should be 20,000*20,000 = 400,000,000 units. Remember that this will be the limit of visible jitter, floating point errors will start becoming a problem in the physics sim before then (assuming that the physics grid works from the game world origin, which it may not).

An estimate from Reddit made the current PU to be a diameter or 1,000,000,000 m and therefore a radius of about 500,000,000.

So given that the current PU is already too big for "safe" 64bit positioning, how are they going to get Hurston into the PU without horrific and visible errors occurring in the physics and graphics?

Oh, and they're doing a live ship concept launch.

It's all a mystery.

Someone needs to do a version with them being taken from behind with a hot crumpet.   

Just for StanTheMan - Hot Crumpet npc action but not as visually scaring as your one video from long ago.

Lol..we have probably all found ourselves on the end of such advances..

This is metaphor for Croberts trying to get more money out of Backers...

LOL cannot believe you found a video with hot crumpet and Mr. Bean together.

It's like they're not even pretending that there's any more gameplay on the way any more.

It's almost painful to watch now, but fascinating. How long until the next big disaster?

LOL thx for posting, I'm waiting on that for sure.

Looked like I saw tearing, shuttering, tire failures.


Did a quick advertisement for tire upgrades to help fund development.

It really is painfully embarrassing now.

I just thought that the Video Nomad had was SO pathetic. Lets watch cannisters fall. Dingy platforms YEAH! Death race missions! and updated old ships! WOW. and guess what? You guessed it A NEW CONCEPT SHIP! Wow I would have never figured that Chris Roberts could come up with yet another ship to sell! How predictable. I bet he has hundreds of concept ships sitting on his desktop and many of his devs do nothing but create these Jpegs. It pays the bills and keeps the morons attention. Thats the entire buisness model in a nutshell.

They dont even manage to look like they care anymore. Sandi's like"I can't believe I'm up here with the pudgy limpdick loser pimping his sad little game when I coulda been a star"! Bubbleporn starts to look good again.

What's hilarious is over on the reddit forums the shitizens are creaming their knickers over that video and busy theory-crafting different things seen in the video. It's like they have a memory span of about 4 - 5 weeks.

Yeah, it's also amazingly pathetic how RSI tries to advertise to the Elite: Dangerous crowd who they think are still fooled into SC's unrealistic expectations spilling over to impatience for ED development. The video is basically saying to bored ED players, "Look, we have cannisters too now!, we have detailed mining first!"(before ED's Beyond 3.1.3 coming in 4th quarter), "our new ED 'imperial courier' looking rip-off ship has corridors you can walk into!"

But it won't do much good. Much of the ED base who read the forums have already realized SC for the ponzi scam that it is by now. The ATV replaying fps-shooting from their arena module four years old isn't going to help either. Geez, SC even looks obsolete, lame and old compared to other fps/fpv games out there now.

It's because they're stuck on a engine that's far too old for its own good.  Never mind it wasn't built for what CiG thinks it can do with it (and it really can't).
