It's a double edged sword. Everybody's got a different line for when something descriptive inadvertently becomes prescriptive

I would say private server is more what you're referring to, also CIG's wording, but maybe agree to disagree. A quick search says that they haven't cancelled that feature, but it'll appropriately be the very last thing they work on

How are they gone? The current servers are hosted by CIG, there's no p2p or player hosted servers. How would that even work for an MMO?

Personally, I don't think they should be aiming for 100 anymore, even if it was promised. That number was for the original pitch and was arbitrarily high since it was for a much shallower and easier to create game

Today was day one of Citizencon and CIG revealed a lot of stuff that shows they're still working to give players the game they want. Most of it was actually tech to answer the scalability problem for everyone wondering how they're going to get to 100 star systems when they still only have 1

What does "let him try and find the hard drive" really mean? Does he just want access to the landfill or is he expecting some kind of cooperation with the workers? How disruptive is he going to be?

Stat Citizen has its problems, but it's literally not vaporware since there's something available that you can download and play with.

All the snarky well-actuallys on an unserious community really make me want to browse Lemmy more

I don't think I've experienced this with stationary objects like stations or rocks, but definitely with enemy ships. I imagine it's due to some desync, but I'll take it happily

How many people that go free climbing actually fall to their deaths though? Were those people not being careful?

Good investigations take more than a week and certainly won't rely primarily on employee testimony. If things are as bad as they say, it'll come out in things like maintenance logs, environmental testing, animal health records etc.
