  • So this won’t be a common issue, but just an example of “the future” Microsoft flight simulator is going to stream in almost all assets, textures, simulation results etc… they have a recommended bandwidth of 50mbs but I believe someone tested it and its more like 180 so just playing that game would mean you’re blowing through a data limit, it’s not something you could ever just download and just have on your local system.

    I would also Imagine streaming video is quite high on the consumption of limits. I have no idea what the rates are on a video call type thing most people who work from home have to deal with, but that can’t be all that low as well.











  • I’ll be “that guy” but according to Chris Roberts (the guy who owns CIG that is making the game) star citizen is supposed to be a “space life” game. It’s not an “arcade game” where there is a specific game type it is built around. You’re supposed to just be a dude/dudette living your life out in space and do what you want which can include all the things you mentioned. I personally want that very much. There are a million games out there that do the basic space pew pew thing or mining, but nothing like a life sim.

    There’s going to be more than just hunger and dehydration, they built toilets and showers into some ships for a specific reason not just atheistics lol







  • I’ve been learning a lot of things about him on Lemmy recently that seem to be confirming a suspicion I had when watching a star talk episode.

    He had a guest that was just this tiny guy sitting close enough that Tyson was able to touch him, and boy did he do a lot of touching… Felt really odd and I always wondered if he was actually not so cool and yet another one of “those guys.”

    Obviously this post isn’t all that bad, but definitely a strange thing to want to repeat so many times lol
