21 days agoTo be fair, CIG is also developing 2 games at once in SC and Squadron 42, the latter of which will actually be released first. The reasons for this are a whole other thing though.

As bug ridden and feature incomplete as Star Citizen is right now, I really can’t deny how beautifully detailed the ships and cities are. It is actually quite difficult to ignore.
Only for games made with UE, so probably doesn’t affect the majority of smaller/indie games. Instead, Epic should keep the fees and reinvest in their platform since it looks and feels like EA’s Origin circa 2015.
More evidence of a poorly regulated industry being detrimental to the people that work in it
4·4 months agoSorry, I don’t think I understand what you’re suggesting. Are you saying encryption keys should themselves be encrypted?
FYI this story isn’t about plaintext passwords, it’s about plaintext encryption keys to chat history.
I kind of agree that this may be a little overblown. Exploiting this requires device and filesystem access so if you can get the keys you can already get a lot more stuff.
The analog camera works great, but the motion blur scenes have a lot more grain now, at least to my eyes
Simple Calendar Pro got an update in October, that’s not too far back
Edit: Just saw the news of the purchase was from Dec.
You have the option to buy most ships with real money, but the general cycle is about 6 months after release into the persistent universe the ships are purchasable with in-game money. The only reason to spend real money on SC is if you can’t wait those 6 months, want to support development, or don’t want to bother with in-game money for whatever reason. There are some exception ships though.
As for the detail, there are big differences between SC and ED. For one, SC ships have completely modeled interiors since the intended gameplay is for you to manually board your ship from outside. ED has no ship interiors as far as I know, just cockpits and exteriors, no matter how big the ship is. SC also has more ships than ED even excluding all the SC ship variants, ground vehicles, and ships that don’t do Quantum jumps, the frame shift equivalent of ED.
