Just picked up the bundle, so I finally have a reason to read this threadGet ready for a spike in viewership, @GasBandit. Space Engineers is in the latest Humble Bundle.
Yeah... unless it's a Greenlight Bundle, you basically need to admit you're ready for the big leagues.Keen Software, I think it's finally time to admit that you aren't in alpha/beta any more. When you're included in HB, you're officially at the end of your sale cycle.[DOUBLEPOST=1470782515,1470782338][/DOUBLEPOST]But yeah, looks like you're right, Ash.
Half of the bundle is explicitly marked Early Access, with all the things that label implies. They're not trying to pull a fast one on you.This actually makes me less likely to buy a Humble Bundle. If they put broken shit like this in their bundles, it makes me question all of it.
Given the "immediate crash bugs" in some of the support threads, I hope the testing will be a bit longer than that. Crashing all the time doesn't help test it, and just makes the least buggy initially come up as best, not the actual "best" for the code.Good News! We have new multiplayer net code to test out, 3 different versions actually. Paper, Rock and Scissors are the three versions to choose from. In a few weeks with more testing, they should have in narrowed down to only one, and then they will fine tune and polish that version and it will be our new netcode.
We'll see... I've been told "we fixed the netcode " before. I will give it a shot, but if SE breaks my heart again, it might be the last time.So that's...good?
I'd say let it settle for a month then.We'll see... I've been told "we fixed the netcode " before. I will give it a shot, but if SE breaks my heart again, it might be the last time.
That may be a good idea, the subreddit's already complaining about new issues with multiplayer cropping up.I'd say let it settle for a month then.
And Gravity follows the Wile E Coyote rule.Looks like they forgot to include friction in their physics model.

That's because Space Engineers never studied law.And Gravity follows the Wile E Coyote rule.
Well, I haven't fired it up since october, but it didn't crash on me then.Does the game still crash every time you try to launch a new game? Because I'd love to play it some more, but I'm not wasting my time downloading something that's just gonna crash nonstop.
So why don't you?[DOUBLEPOST=1484591459,1484591282][/DOUBLEPOST]I can't find the video. Did they delete it?"The 5 kinds of engineers you will encounter in Space Engineers" by Last Stand Gamers floated across my youtube recommendations list yesterday. I was tempted to post a comment under it "You forgot number 6, the engineer who copies other people's creations, paints them a different color, makes some quick cosmetic changes, then makes a youtube video where he claims it's 'something he's been working on' without any mention or acknowledgement to the original author."
First and foremost I don't need the headache of dealing with the replies from fan boys. Second of all it was several months old so it's no longer topical. Which is probably also why you had a hard time finding it.So why don't you?[DOUBLEPOST=1484591459,1484591282][/DOUBLEPOST]I can't find the video. Did they delete it?
