…or maybe he does, and has therefore played some of the spaceship games that have come out in this millennium and thus have a better baseline to compare against as far at what elicits any kind of excitement. Maybe he likes them so much that he doesn't want to subject himself to the poorly designed and even worse presented featureless jank that SC has shown off so far.

If you have to bribe people to try something out rather than respond to the inquiries they have about what might be enticing about your product, chances are that what you're offering isn't enticing.

I love spaceships. I love space. I love space sims. I loath star citizen.

They are not mutually exclusive my man.

Even if you dont like spaceships, star citizen is definitely the game for you. Its got fps parts, already fully released, farming mechanics, fight hostess sim mechanics, and id bet if you asked christo roberto about rpg or rts mechanics itd have those

You're the one claiming suspicions that people in the thread faked communications about Sandi to throw dirt on her, and that this "turns your stomach". You don't realize this is accusing actual real life people who read this thread of being real human shitstains? If Beer faked those mails I'd happily throw him to the wolves.

It doesn't matter what you say you don't care about "conspiracy theory bullshit", when it's so acutely obvious from your statements that you do.

But why here?

I'm just trying to wrap my head around the mindset here.

Like you want to pitch star citizen, then pitch to me, and everyone else here, what your point/end goal is. Because if it was about the mouse I would expect to have seen more about it by now (I haven't). So I suspect its more then that.

Maybe you just like spending money. You did pledge to SC after all.

Maybe you want to see what this side has to say? I could understand that.

Maybe just a troll? I can respect that, but you're doing it wrong.

I just wanna know. Like real psychological inquiry type poo poo.

This isn't about "friends splitting up". This is about the vice President of marketing of CIG, communicating with a (somewhat) random backer about a forums ban. Do you realize the difference, and if so could you prove it?

Star Citizen's flight model is far superior, to say nothing of its quality in other areas.

I guess it's a subjective opinion, but SC's flight model is a joke, none of the ships have any feel to them, they could be 1000t or 10t and they all feel the same.

I-war 2 had decently implemented newtonian physics 15 years ago and SC can't even get the arcadey flight model right yet.

No, what's happening here is you'd rather go head in the sand than face the possibility that your friend is capable of being a pretty loving horrible person to others and the idea that they could even do some of the stuff that's been raised in here makes you sick to the stomach because it ruins that ideal image of them in your head. To rationalise this, you stick to the logic of "If I haven't seen it myself, it never happened".

Look basically all I'm saying is that everyone who has said anything about Sandi that suggests or states that her character is in question by citing specific instances where she acted in a repugnant or abusive manner is a liar.

That's just the vibe that I'm trying to express here. Not looking for confrontation or evidence. I'm just saying you're a liar and you have no proof. If you do please keep it to yourself, because it's a lie.

Anyways I've looked at CIG's internal facebook page and things are going well.

Well, do like my friend and brother do. They have a $20 and $60 ship respectively, but instead of flying them they crew for me or borrow my other ships.

Biggest ship you can buy as a civilian is a Javelin Destroyer, which is a crew of 30 off the top of my head. Think what you'd buy if you were the guy in your office who's job it was to develop team building exercises.

It's $20 man. That's, like, what does Angry Birds cost?

Also, the Mustang Beta is a really nice little ship. It's just kind of a glass cannon. I have one myself, to escort my Vanguard.
