[quote who="Volusianus" reply="13" id="3654080"] I agree with the sentiment that while it worked in SC2, I think the ship models should not intersect. It's just like how in FFVII, party members were sort of parked inside of your main character when they weren't important, but in recent titles, everyone is out and about and interacting with their environment at all times. [/quote] If the main ship was big enough, the other ships could dock in it. That&#

[quote who="Hunam_" reply="36" id="3654035"] I'll sell you mine for a measly $100. You could at least play with your family in the same room at the same time. NMS MP style. [/quote] That's about the only way I'd ever do it - buying a key from a third party. If there is no local multiplayer, I will never buy a second key from an official retailer. I don't have much control over the game they are developing, but I do have control over my wallet. SD w

It just dawned on me... Without local multiplayer, it will be impossible for me to play against my family during the alpha/beta even if I caved and loaded it on a second PC. I will only have one key. :(

[quote who="Awkbird" reply="7" id="3654022"] We're all counting on planets getting a lot more atmospheric detail from orbit in order to minimize that effect. If the planet surfaces are sufficiently detailed and varied in design, shadows will not be a dealbreaker. [/quote] Anecdote - I spent 7 years with an antiquated computer. It was PCIe v1, and as such, it was very limited in how far I could upgrade it. It had a GTX 250 in it, and even that wasn't being fully utili

[quote who="Hunam_" reply="6" id="3654021"] Stardock puts out compressed material - too pixelated. Stardock puts out quality material - too long to download.... where's my palmface emote? [/quote] I was careful not to say that I wanted them to use better video compression codecs. :P I was just alluding to the fact that the vault is sloooooooo

[quote who="Mercy_Fornone" reply="3" id="3654011"] I'd love to see a v2. [/quote] Technically, this is a V2.

After watching the video... (Which took an awful long time to download, much longer than a 700MB file should.) [0:10] The solar system entry sequence was okay, but I would want to shut it off after some amount of gameplay. [0:15] I am not a fan of orange HUDs. [0:32] Lander controls? Who uses RShift and RCtrl in gaming?!?!? [0:32] The lander GUI could use some screen-edge flags to show which direction minerals are in. <d

^ That's too bad. ILMPAFY was a great name. Even though it started as an acronym, it took on a life of its own. So much for the game having a sense of humor...

[quote]We have them in here but there is the possibility they could get cut in order to make our hardware requirement objective (they're not fully developed at this stage so we will know within the next few months whether we can do this). Not sure how many people will care about this or not. That isn't to say we won't have shadows, just not sure about this fidelity. [/quote] I am in the no-shadow crowd. I only care about shadows in FPS types of games where

[quote who="SavageMind1" reply="28" id="3653808"] At one time I did and even moderated forums on more than one occasion. I really don't need lessons in forums or psychology. [/quote] Ok, but you bring up that bitterness a lot. Part of giving feedback is accepting the fact that people will think you are wrong. It's apparent that you DO care if people criticize your ideas, because you always are quick to remind us that only the dev's opinions matter. You need

[quote who="Hunam_" reply="31" id="3653785"] ^ Are you sure you wanna hear a sad sad story about a boy whose local multiplayer was blown up in the first 15 minutes of his life? [/quote] That's pretty much every world-destroying story, if you think about it...

[quote who="Kavik_Kang" reply="28" id="3653775"] When was the last time you saw a planet blow up during the first 15 minutes of a story? [/quote] Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy?

[quote who="SavageMind1" reply="25" id="3653768"] DEVS Thanks, you don't owe me a damn thing but a game sometime in the next fiscal year. Message me an email I can submit my feedback to and I will stay off this forum and away from this madness and the all knowing, always right, legendary (in their own mind) game masters that populate this forum. Thanks. [/quote] I vote for this option too. If we aren't going to use these foru

[quote who="cuorebrave" reply="18" id="3653727"] Y'all just want to complain instead of dissect. What a downer and a sad, sad thing. [/quote] I'm done with debating plot. I'm done with debating quests. I'm done with debating filler. We aren't getting enough feedback from Stardock to have a continual meaningful dialog. We only get information once a month, and we are almost 2 weeks past the last update with another 2 to go. We have no idea if our i

[quote who="cuorebrave" reply="12" id="3653647"] /Rant over [/quote] ::looks at the remaining 3 posts.:: Apparently not. Dude, wow. You ok? On the plus side, you broke your rant up into 4 posts. You get some credit for that. ::Sees that CB spammed every single sticky AND posted 4 times in this thread.:: H

^ Thanks for the heads up. Can we now unpin the messages since they aren't attracting anything other than dust?

^ Nonono. He was being sneaky with ILMPAFY.

[quote who="Alverez" reply="10" id="3653539"] Is Local MultiPlayer A Feature Yet [/quote] Hahahahaha... Yes, that would have been a good one. But you should have waited until they approved it!

[quote who="Kavik_Kang" reply="6" id="3653486"] The license plate was "1PDQMF". [/quote] Ok, what does that mean? (And ILMPAFY name too.)

[quote who="Hunam_" reply="4" id="3653470"] ^ I posted in August 2016 dev log thread. See if it's bold for you. I think they fixed the persistent title bolding. [/quote] It is fixed. We did it! It is evidence that we affected something! [quote who="Awkbird" reply="7" id="3653477"] Exactly. They're not really specifically prompting us on anything in particular, and users have been making these threads rather than moderators. The resulting disorder

FYI: Since I named my planet "FOUNDERS FORUM", it makes me a mod. I am officially banning Tom from it.

[quote who="Hunam_" reply="2" id="3653397"] I propose for Stardock to reveal why in the world did those threads get pinned (and basically were pulled out of commenting cycle, since nobody pays attention to pinned posts for several reasons). [/quote] Hear Hear! Though I suspect that it was something cooked up by the team management in order to solicit more feedback without increasing the level of interaction or information.

Just a heads up y'all. And I finally officially submitted my approve-able name. "FOUNDERS FORUM"

Stardock, Pinning posts does not appear to be working as a method to necro-revive these old discussions. The pinned posts are not attracting any new feedback. Look at the posting dates. (And look at the people who are posting to them.) I've also noticed that there is little discussion, in general, about past updates going on now. Sure, you have people referencing ideas/feedback they created, but you do not have any new posters digging into them and submitting new feedback.
