Hi Alan, thanks for your reply. Regarding the negative mouse acceleration, make sure that you haven't bound an analogue device output to a digital game input, or vice versa. Nothing like that applies here... I'm not rebinding things or using input devices other than kb+mouse. If not that, then see i...

This is a two part question. Context I used to play X2 with a Saitek X52 hotas. I don't want the clutter on my desk and find that aiming weapons with the mouse in TC is faster than using a joystick. So what I'm trying to do is steer the ship with WASD and aim the weapons with the mouse. I can do tha...

Here, have mine: http://paste.lisp.org/+33DB I use the X52 (non Pro). Not sure what the differences are between pro and non pro, and if profiles are compatible between the pro and non pro version. YMMV. Non pro X52 users will likely come across this thread too anyway. Copy&paste into notepad and sav...

It's not a threat at all. SteveMill nailed it.

Sucess = give people what they want or you might be dead before they want what you've got.

If you never want to spend time with your wife again, buy it for her.

when I was 16years old one pretty lady dump me very hard after 1 week of dating, I think this is even worst than that. :evil: Hahahah :D I bet back then you would have disagreed this is worse! ;) sorry I had to get it out somewhere I had a good laugh. Well vented, funny, no foul language, 10/10.

Not right now. Maybe in the future, and that's a big maybe. As an X oldtimer, I - regretfully - fully agree with the above sentiment. I am not against change, but for Christmas you'd really be much better off requesting the X Superbox (it's on Steam). You are guaranteed to have a blast with that. M...

Sorry I was a tad late editing my previous post... did not want to steer this thread off topic. Meh, when I wrote that it was not about Ego's financial position (that's an assumption you made), more about a way to not release a bad game, hurting Ego's reputation, losing the fans' trust and sinking t...

You can go to a better thread if you prefer. Not stopping you.

I'll be happy to respond if you have something valuable to say about the actual subject of the thread. I'm tired of non constructive comments posted using accounts that were registered just this month. Look at devastat_'s post as an example of a constructive post by a new guy in the community.

Contrary to being under contract to a publisher, a crowdfunded project is never forced to actually implement "bickerings", the features that the funders want, into the game. The funders are not the project leads. The goals are set from the start and they can choose to back that, or not. The develope...

You do understand that it often takes credit, and a lot of it, to keep a business going, and investors aren't going to lend if you have a track record for failure and choosing to not collect proceeds. Kickstarter gets around that problem by instead relying on a lot of micro investments from the gen...

Please adjust your attitude or stay out of my thread. The Egosoft forums are not Youtube. Trust me I know, I've been here for a while...

What have you contributed lately?

It does not matter if the business survives if that means having to release a bad game. The game is priority number one, everything else is secondary. You can start a new business. That's what it means to be passionate about games. I would NEVER release a bad game. Over my dead body. Literally. Your...

Depends what piece of the pie you offer them from the success of the new project....maybe it was possible to strike a deal and suffer the losses. Heck, even if not, if it meant that Egosoft had to go bankrupt and start all over with kickstarter, I would have still done that. Entrepeneurs go bankrupt...

This is what I would have done, if I were Bernd: I would have not released Rebirth. Instead, I would have publicly announced: Sorry, but we messed up. Rebirth as a game does not meet the quality standard that we as a company demand of our products. We experienced problems during the development and ...

Kickstarter is for developers who don't have funds. No publisher funding their project, and no income from recently sold games. Egosoft have had Deep Silver's funding and they've been selling copies of Rebirth. They don't have the "right" to go on kicksterter NOW. It's too late for that. But yeah ki...

Well?

The Gameindustry incinerate us for Years, with crappy unfinished Shit. They show us Videos how awesome their Games are, we preorder because we believe them, and than....SCAM. Next Game, we believe the shittalk..BAM Scam. Over and Over and Over again. Only we can change that. Stop Preorder! Stop Day...
