https://kotaku.com/star-citizen-backer-sues-to-get-4-500-back-loses-1827666550
I've been a pretty big skeptic of this game for a long time. If you are cool with chucking money into it and have the means, have at it. But $4,500 and then you feel duped?
Please.
AT THE SAME TIME -
I feel like the dev is full of shit as well. I just can't believe the support they've gotten.
Clyp, man, I know very little about Star Citizen. Heard of it, but never paid enough attention to really know about it.
That said, this is horrible. Crazy to think this is going on.

The most expensive gift I've ever given was a PS 4 to my friend. I'm too broke for anything more expensive.
And it is a great gift, at that.
Kindness and generosity are wonderful things.

What condition are these TVs generally in? I want to buy it as a gift for my brother but I don’t want a dinged up tv
Ya know you guys who give expensive gifts to people you love...are awesome.
Nothing against any of us who can't do it, but still, just love hearing this.

If that is true and she was terminated without warning/counseling from HR for her social media activities in regard to fan interaction, then that changes my perception of events entirely, especially since ArenaNet was well aware of her social media use to address the industry's anti-woman toxicity issues.
If true, Wade I don't necessarily disagree with you. It would also depend upon if she was hired at will and possibly what their employee handbook says on such matters.
For me, my "if true" is because I have first hand experience in letting employees go who were "blindsided by this and it came without warning" when there were warnings, on the record, and recent events indicated they should have known enough was enough.

Just to preempt any of you, Switch will not be part of this. I have handhelds that I love (Game Gear, Game Boy, Neo Geo Pocket: Colour) but I think we an all agree that DS Lite is H.O.A.T. A great library, backwards compatibility with the GBA and the library is pretty special. Even writing my non-words about it, makes me want to buy a new one (I last owned one in I think 2009) and indulge in some N64 level, 2 screen gaming.
Regardless, GTV, I wouldn't put the Switch on there because although there are some spectacular titles on it and it is a great machine its body of work is just too limited.
I will defer to some of my brethren here: great titles and BC should be the standard.

Talk about creating a narrative.
"There's probably a couple dudes who cross over on these two subjects like I'm assuming, so I'll base my entire argument on it"
And I don't think anyone's taking any extra steps on anything. She publicly lauded the death of a man while accusing him of abusing people, while later abusing totally innocent people because she's the fucking goddamn narrative writer and she knows story better than any of you rando fucking dipshit plebes. I'm sure celebrating the death of a man who had just died of cancer got her nothing but thumbs up from her company. I see a clear pattern of her using current social norms to talk shit and be a cunt. And now it bit her in the ass. Oh well.
And if you don't think using your platform to directly quote someone who was CLEARLY giving their opinion while calling them a "rando asshat" and then making it about you being a woman that's getting pushed around is a method of basically directing a mob to harass someone, you're either a fucking dipshit or an ignoramus. She publicly derided this guy for absolutely no reason, clearly intending to get those that follow and respect her to blast this guy for... what, again? Absolutely nothing? Why is anyone defending this? WHAT IS THERE TO DEFEND? Did some of you not actually read the entire Twitter exchange? This woman went off the deep end and just didn't stop. It was absurd and embarrassing to read.
Here, Bob.

But this is sort of the logic people are using for why you can't fire her - that it fuels the fan base to then harass others in the industry in hopes to get anyone they disagree with fired. I don't really agree with either.
For the record, I don't really think she harassed the guy directly, nor did she set the mobs on him. But she certainly flipped out over an extremely leveled and non-aggressive response to her tweet, and when he responded in another non-threatening way, she acted even more inappropriately and obtuse.
Austin Walker made a few points that I considered and at least understand where he's coming from. But on its face he still feels the firing is completely out of line, and I just don't agree with that. I would consider changing my opinion if I did learn that this was like the first time she has ever been approached by the company to change the way she interacts with the public. But I do find that hard to believe after she was spitting on a dead guy on the same forum.
Great response, and your second paragraph just nails it.
Now, some may not like it, but that just really is the nuts and bolts of what this is.

You definitely have to be at least the minimum required light level for each Raid. Which can be quite a time investment. It's the difference between being a helpful participant on the team to being a hindrance that holds the entire team back. The Raids are THAT team intensive. I've honestly never played anything coop that's like it, which is why I keep coming back to Destiny.
All that being said, come September 4th, the new expansion hits and the new Raid looks pretty spectacular, a throwback to what's often considered Destiny's best Raid to date (Vault of Glass). There will be plenty of us on PS4 playing pretty consistently once it comes out. Always happy to have another.
So, if you're interested, that gives you a couple of months to get your character(s) up to snuff.
Believe me, Emby, I have watched a number of Raid videos on twitch for fun (yes, I know..I know) and...damn, all hands have to be on deck.
Maybe it makes a difference that everyone will likely be bad as no one else has it. However, still, family guys with little time to dedicate to it I think is going to be a problem.
Thank you.

Destiny Raids are the pinnacle of that game type. 6 player teams where timing and teamwork are everything.
Emblazon...damn...I think I knew that, but it honestly never came to me. It never even briefly fluttered around in the front of my mind.
However, is that something where leveling up becomes critical?
I've never played more than a demo of Destiny and I don't know how committed I/we would be to putting ourselves in position to be successful. probably looking for something a little more casual.
Thank you, BTW.

I know you can do it with Halo 5 against Bots (5 waves), and I also know you have horde mode in Gears where you can do it, as well as the mode that was added with Titan Fall 2, I believe within the last 6 months or so.
However, are there any other games that provide this option?
I am not talking simple MP, team vs team thing, but an objective based event or mode where 5 or more players can team up.
Thank you in advance.

Well I don't know anything about a new scuf controller as it was like last year when I tried it out. Anyway, no rumble makes it more "pro" but I think it's probably an option since you can customize what you like in them. (just checked and removing rumble is an option)
In the most recent Gameinformer they showed the one I was talking about...KS...wow, it really was nice. Not too dissimilar from the X1's Elite controller. It had offset stick, as well.
However, for my PS4 use, I just can't justify it.
EDIT: Here it is. This is the wired "cheaper" version. Wireless is $199.

My friend has one so he can be pro at destiny. It has no rumble. I used it once.
Wait, wait, wait.
Keyser, tou aren’t talking about the new Scuf controller, are you?!
I’d be stunned if that thing that costs $199 for the wireless doesn’t have rumble.

Doom, the original, but on the Xbox One.
Some Trials: Fusion on the PS4, as it was free.
...and I think (if still available and I did DL it) the free trial for Wolfenstein. If I ridiculously dig it I will go to the link kindly provieded by @mikechorney (if still available) and get a discount on the game.
Oh, and I may take advantage of the Steam summer sale and DL Quake and Quake II.

What a dinosaur in the industry.
With credits under her belt like the often panned Uncharted series and her attempt to give us fans what NONE of us asked for, a Star Wars action adventure shooter game, it really comes down to this with respect to her frailty as a game creator:
1. What royale has she ever come up with?
2. What micro-transaction has she ever championed?
...yeah, sounds ridiculous, doesn't it?
Apparently her talent gets in the way of the industry standards as they exist today.

Quite honestly, I could care less about cross play. They're in the lead and they don't have to throw any competitors any bones for the good of mankind.
What I don't think is right, is holding accounts hostage like they are with the Epic Fortnite accounts, unless something's changed there.
The North remembers.
I wish I could say that is a Game of Thrones reference, but really it's just that I'm from Buffalo and I probably won't forget Sony's hubris.

Man it's good to have the boards back. I haven't been to a forum since ours went down. I realized that other boards aren't the same. Everyone on the internet are complete ass holes. I know we aren't perfect but you guys are my ass holes
What's everyone been up to since the gloom in June?
It wasn't until I didn't realize this place was gone that I realized how important it was to me.
not a typo...coming back after being tied up and then realizing that something had gone awry here made me think of world without this place.
...I didn't like it.
