Nice find del boy. The 'war chest ' has now been transferred pretty much in it's entirety to uk shores under the careful eye of Simon. All bets on Sq42. No more bets please.....

There's still one more bet to place. That a good chunk of that money will go into the top people's pockets while a wet fart of a game is released under the title Squadron 42.

Last night I managed to scoop someone up by flying at them backwards on the landing pad until they popped into the ship, I then flew off with the door open and tried to shake the ship up and down like a huge ketchup bottle to see if I could shake them out into space but they just stood there unflinching, unmoving and unnerving

The way Chris R. happens to redo things over and over again confirming his madness, let's me believe that the SQ42 overall story arch leak by that "FEMALE" journalist might have resulted in yet another revision of the script (and thus further need of expansions), just to not take away any surprises (not that Chris Roberts stories ever excelled at surprising anyhow). So most probably the script grew in that process due to some crappy metaphysical crap exposition, similar like in his movie. (think pilgrim)

Nicholas posted:how do you resolve SQ42 being split into 5(!) parts, only 1 (or 2) of which backers will recieve for free, with "EA/ACTIVITION/ELITE expansions/dlc are a total ripoff" Some people may have opinions about him, but I think Jim Sterling really does do a good job summarizing what a half-assed cash grab episodic content is. For better or worse, it's often a desperate attempt to make money while they flail around trying to finish a game they haven't delivered. Things must be really bad if they're resorting to some of the dirtiest cash-grab tactics that EVIL publishers (who, by the way, Crobber despises) use. Something something fighting monsters, something something becoming one.

Tijuana Bibliophile posted:They can fit $20m of their product in one single-stamp envelope This is our shot, boys. If we can intercept that envelope we'll not only be rich, but we'll be heroes for bringing those bastards at CIG to their knees. This could be the caper of the century. I figure we need 12 guys, a Leer jet rented for a week, 4 hookers, and a big bag of cocaine. Can anyone front the money for this in exchange for a share of the take? Derek? Bootcha?

I like how our last standing US producers explain why CIG still needs concept artists - a nice contrast to all those raging citizens thinking Ken was leaving because concept art isn't any longer a priority with CIG, all concept art is done - yeah right, SQ42 and 100 star systems want to have a word with you.

So what if Crobberts decides "aww gently caress it" and the next thing you see is a movie poster: Coming soon to a cinema near you: Squadron 42 An animated sci-first tale extraordinaire, with Gary Parp, Gillian X-Files and Mark Beefcake! Dreams, dreams happen now...

quote:“By the time we got it to the level we said, ‘Okay you guys can play this.’ Well we already had all the other things combined with the large world and the 64-bit coordinates and the zone system so that was it. So there you are, we will have Gold Horizon, we will have Star Marine, but that will come online once all the basic FPS features are out in and live in the mini PU.” so release a stripped down bare bones unfun FPS in PTU and then work on that for a year instead of the polished SM module for backers, huh, ok makes sense to me.

D_Smart posted:Just going to leave this here so you can ponder the fuckeries within quote:It is now the largest of Cloud Imperium’s 4 offices, with over 160 employees and growing, taking on more of the company’s work than originally intended. quote:The majority of its development work and all QA testing is now taking place at Foundry 42. Once development is finished on Squadron 42, the UK team will be kept busy expanding the Star Citizen universe with battles and new campaigns. Just more evidence of "all hands on deck" for SQ42 while SC languishes. Plus if UK is doing the heavy lifting now, then what's Austin doing? Nothing, because it's withering away just like you said it would.

Why is the human beachball managing to make it look like he's ad-libbing his lines better than Sq42's female lead? Put the loving script down you dumb bitch.

AP posted:The Idris is nearly finished, they might stick the Javelin in the bin right next to Star Marine though. Also I'm sure they'd want to bin the 1km long Bengal Carrier as it took two guys nearly a year to do the 61 metre Constellation. I forgot that the Idris is the centerpiece of Squadron 42, but, at the same time, converting it to a multiplayer game and to be manned by more than 2 or 3 people may prove too daunting for RSI to complete.

Well, a source saw my post on Twitter and hailed me. The synopsis. It's worse than my post makes it sound. UK studio opened in January 2014. Two years ago. Since then they've spent (since tax records show they don't have any money in the UK) according to the article, over £15 million (approx $21.5M) on that office. With the fluctuation of the exchange rate over the last two years; that amounts to about $23M dollars. Again, tax records show they aren't holding more than £400K anymore. So in two years they've spent $23M+ on just the UK studio; which everyone knows is the cheapest location of all their studios for salary and rent. So sum it up: That is the ENTIRE game's ORIGINAL budget for two years of their least expensive per capita of the 4 studios. If you add up: Frankfurt 1 year LA 3 years Austin 3 years BHVR 3 years Illfonic 2 years Void Alpha 1 year CG Bot 2 years, Turbulent 3 years PLUS mocap costs you understand WHY they are out of money and need to keep raising funds.

Like I said to Mirificus a bit ago, it seems so often that Star Citizen is hilarious at the Macro and heartbreaking at the Micro. It's part of what makes Chris and Sandi such contemptible characters. They just... don't...give... a...poo poo... about anybody.
