Neither of which really comes with smelling distance of a software project, but I'm sure that I searched incorrectly on the term given. Unless interpretive dance is a hotbed of space sims.

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

Surprised that you didn't pick up on any of the Evochrons or Elite. The latter has been out for quite a while, and you missed out on prophecy. Blair didn't make it.

So I was looking at Star Citizen on wikipedia when I noticed that under platforms it said "Linux" which led me to this article:

PC gaming: Not just still alive, but still dominant, says PAX East panel

quote:

Speaking of Linux: Roberts reaffirmed that while Windows is the main targeted platform for Star Citizen, the game maker will also be officially supporting Linux.

I had no idea this was a thing, I'll bet it's coming right after private servers :v:

Don't do this, they just wait for excuses to ignore you.

Write lengthy (bad) mails listing numerous specific issues you have with the game. Ask them to explain specifics: which tos they claim you've agreed to, on which date and so on. Haven't received a warning when the 14 day "grace period" expired? Ask them to explain that.

Get them off script, make them work for it until you're more trouble than your cash is worth. Don't insult, but don't buy into their version of the story or fall into their script.Don't get a reply? Send a new mail, every day.

Shitizens love to post about how they hope the game isn't released for x years so it can be more polished. They have been doing this for x years so I imagine it will just continue on into the future, they are enabling the best businesswoman in the world since she was a little girl to just keep selling them ships and not releasing anything resembling an actual game.

Hi Amy,

As I mentioned in my request I am aware of CIG's 14 day refund policy, however in Australia statutory consumer rights have no time limit. If your policy prevents me from attaining a refund I am prepared to contact the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission and file a complaint.

:smug:

I'm totally prepared to lose $80 if I can gently caress CIG's refund policy over in Australia, they've already had to change it to (sort of) meet EU standards.

Fucking Star Citizen True Believers are passive-aggressive douchebags. Sorry if I have the ability to use my critical thinking skills. I didn't drink the Kool-Aid, motherfuckers.

That's me trying way too hard to fit in here. Please accept me, I need validation. I'm very depressed.

Beer wasn't an employee, he was a customer. Sandi abused a customer (past or present, it doesn't matter) and ranted in email at him on a completely unrelated subject to his enquiry and totally unprofessional manner. Anyone with the most basic customer service experience would never, ever have engaged in anything close to that (unless they wanted to be fired).

I'm sure Sandi is completely lovely and nice to people, until they disagree with her (or Chris), ask for a refund or talk about CIG/SC in any manner that isn't thoughtless worship.
