    10:33 – ATV Behind the Scenes: Lighting

    More info on how the lighting in Star Citizen is computed. 

    But the interesting thing in THIS video is a closer look at the INTERIOR of the NYX landing zone, which - at least to my knowledge - has not been shown elsewhere so far.

    So ... some scenes from a new landing area in Star Citizen that have not been shown elsewhere ...something that a lot of people interested in Star Citizen maybe have not seen yet......
    THAT is what you consider SPAM ? 

    Some people on this site have upwards of 20.000 posts, in a shorter amount of time than i have been on this site.

    If someone is really interested in SC they will already know these things.

    It just looks like you are trying too hard to white-knight IMHO. That brings out the Trolls. Then that brings out the worst in both sides, although I do give you credit that you rarely stoop to their depths.

    Maybe you're right. Maybe I should just stay away from this site for awhile. To me it looks like your post just create Troll posts out of thin air. Almost like that is your goal. Honestly the only threads I even view here are about SC and the laughable shitstorm it creates. I find it an interesting running commentary on how a group of people can look at the same thing and get wildly different opinions on it. Fascinating as Mr. Spock one said.

    Aren't they like a year past their launch date already? When are they going to actually work on the game and not just videos?  How much longer will their dwindling money hold out before they launch?
    If you think about it, a good game is not made in 2 years, or even 3 years, you're looking at a 5 years, maybe even 6 for games developers pushing the envelope. A lot of great things have had resistance to the creators vision.

     There were people telling Steve Jobs the user interface like the iphone and ipad pioneered couldn't be done each time he sent a prototype back saying 'this is not how I want it' to the apple programmers.

     I'm part of the crowd that will buy the single player game when its released. As will many old time Wing Commander series fans. I look at this single player game as the Wing Commander 3 of today with Mark Hamill returning to work with Roberts again.

    About "creating trolls out of thin air":

    For the first year of SC i did not even post here in this subforum at all. Trolls were already prowling this subforum aplenty back then. Mostly the same naysayers you see today. Some had up to ten alts over time (most of them permabanned now). You see some of the same trolls here on many other boards. What does THAT tell you ?

    There was so much misinformation, so much BS posted here that one day i decided to add some alternative information to the  prevalent heaps of dung news to be found here on the SC subforum. 

    So ... i try to find some NEW information (be it the official game homepage, gaming magazines, interviews, Youtube etc.) and post it here for entertainment and discussion. I add a link where possible/appropriate so people can check it out themselves. Some will like it, some will not.

    If the same ol' same ol' misinformation is being posted again and again, i often add the pieces of information that are deliberately left out for negative propaganda reasons (in some cases that has happened approx dozen times already). 

    So ... in summary ... no trolls were created out of thin air. Its mostly the same trolls that had an almost  free reign on this subforum for the first year of the SC campaign.  


    Have fun 



    PS:
    About "If someone is really interested in SC they will already know these things." ..... in my experience that is NOT the case for a majority of the people interested in SC - fans or outside observers both. It has been said very often here by casual forum readers that they do NOT follow the SC development as closely as others. And that they appreciate a more condensed collection of news about SC in this subforum and the official MMORPG.com news section - without having to look through 20 other websites and forums themselves.

    Star Citizen Office
    Frankfurt, Germany

    Alex Marschal, Senor Project Manager here in the office went to the toilet after having a coffee with Marco Corbetta, Senor Tech Director. 

    There was Bratwurst and Wiener Schnitzel for lunch today. According to Todd Pappy, Design Director It was very delicious.

    OK I defer to your experience in this matter as far as Old Trolls are concerned. It just seemed to me that the Trolls really ramped it up when you started WKing (not a derogatory term BTW, at least coming from me, I 100% see why you feel the need for what you do). I guess you should feel proud. You are causing fear and loathing in them! Huzzah!

    +1000 Internets if you get the last part!

    PS: 
    The trolls have very much ramped up their activity ever since the Alpha build was available. Despite it being unstable, buggy and prone to crashes - like all true Alphas - it laughed into the face of all the "It is impossible!" crusaders and made them choke on their previous doom-and-gloom posts. Personally i believe THAT was the cause for the recent  rampant troll threads - not me posting about Star Citizen here on MMORPG.com

    lol you decided to add some alternative information is right. Some of the stuff you posted back in 2014 was laughable at best. Lately you haven't started to repost only info from the official SC website but to think you have been a bastion of knowledge all this time is just lying to yourself

    Well, sure ... only reposts from the official SC website.  

    Lets forget about the links to gaming magazines (a la GameStar or PC Gamer), to You-Tube Videos from gamers playing SC, to fan websites like INN, to gaming websites like PC Gamer or Wired. Lets forget about personal reports about gaming experiences with SC and comparisons with other games like E:D, EVE or SWG. Lets forget about "tip-of-the-hat" posts to other space games like No Mans Sky, Everspace, Descent, Rebel Galaxy and others. Lets forget about more general topics like trends in crowdfunding and the revival of the PC in the post-next-gen-console time. 

    But HEY, you say its only reposts from the official SC website.  You say the stuff I posted was "laughable at best." More power to you, your opinion and your personal reality filter.

    Correction to my post it should say have started instead of haven't started to repost.

    Also anyone who wants to go into your previous post history or through mine since it's less to sift through they would see some of the stuff you posted in 2014 easily fell within the misinformation category or trying to pass off your opinion as fact.

    Sadly, all the good German restaurants in the area have closed down.  It takes an expedition to get any decent Wiener Schnitzel now.

    If you are holding out for the perfect game, the only game you play will be the waiting one.

    Star Citizen seems to have dropped their Grabby Hands system which was confirmed for SC 6 months ago.
    Lando spoke it out then ruddered a bit back to something they maybe look into in the future.

    Looking forward to the single player game for this. Couldn't care less about the online side.  It will be too much drama with today's online grief communities and cheat sellers and their buyers, and large clan communities dominating with zerg.

    Well I bet the team is pissed since they will have to make unique animations for every object if they drop this.
