We noticed the correlation between mental illness/Star Citizen a while ago, aside from the fast food/Star Citizen link is also interesting. You'll happily wait 10 years for a game but not 10 minutes for a cooked meal.

Unlike most (anyone running any type of public group in SC); He also has called CIG out several times in the past for loving some things up. He just never did it regularly like others in less visible community positions had. What a crock of poo poo, Dolvak has done nothing but run interference for CIG.

I really like how the SC forumites think Elite is becoming rapaciously cash hungry. An $80 dollar expansion is, to their eyes, a sign of corporate desperation. It is as if they have no self-awareness whatsoever.

A Neurotic Jew posted:I was thinking the same thing when I read this too actually. Also the constant references to how "she only reads the lines" during AtV, with no attempt to actually work on it. She doesn't seem to give a poo poo anymore and crappy fan videos might be the solution to spending less energy on it. Sandi clearly doesn't give a crap about the show itself. Showing up seemingly blazed ramming timtams in her mouth for 20 minutes while saying little more than "what are you guys all smiling about?" and "I just ate two bags of these" and "I'm starting my diet with you guys" is about as IJDGAF as it gets. All the same, I don't think she will be pleased if viewership is notably higher, or backers start clamoring for more Cherie. It like a certain mirror telling a certain queen about a certain maiden...

A month later it was down to 70$ and now its 50$, probably going to be 30$ this summer and 20$ in the Christmas sale. Last time CIG had a sale it was for a 35$ aurora packages instead of the regular 45$. But of course those 35$ packages did not count for recruitment purpose until the person activating the referral code purchased 10$ more in the CIG store. Also, now due to the "split" the whole star Citizen experience is up from 45$ to 90$. I got Basic Elite for 18$ in loonies, cheaper than anything i can buy from CIG aside access to a part of their forums.

aleksendr posted:Only if you wanted it absolutely when it got out. A month later it was down to 70$ and now its 50$, probably going to be 30$ this summer and 20$ in the Christmas sale. $80 for a season pass is a perfectly respectable cost, high, but not outrageous. The Star Citizen ship prices are utterly out of this world. For example, the new Drake ship is likely to be Sabre priced, as the design doc referenced it. $180 for JPEGs instead of $80 for a year's worth of content. About the income, I fully anticipate CIG will release a SQ42 trailer sometime soon. CIG knows how to rustle video gamers jimmies with a new "In Engine" video, that has no connection to the actual game. Something like that 'should' come soon, maybe in time for GDC.

The thing I still can't make sense of is why he stayed friendly with Alyssa after the Santa Monica bloodbath. Alyssa clearly was purged due to suspicions of disloyalty. The firings turned Beer publically against Sandi and Chris. Then Dolvak sides with CIG and calls Beer a traitor. Then Dolvak stays friendly with one of the people Beer was mad to see fired... How does Dolvak reconcile these entirely contradictory moral positions? I hate to credit the guy with any depth because come on-- but that there's is an outright enigma.

I was just reviewing some of the more enjoyable stretch goals that RSI has, for some reason, left up on their site. Please keep in mind when reading these that CIG committed to these features even if funding dried up 100% after reaching these numbers. $3.5 million Cockpit decorations – Turn your stock cockpit into your home with personalized decorations; amaze your friends with bobbleheads, photographs, dinosaurs, fuzzy dice, nose art, posters and many more cool options! Just because the word "dinosaurs" is nested between smaller items like bobbleheads and fuzzy dice is no reason to believe this does not refer to full-size dinosaurs roaming around my cargo bay. Maybe this is what they meant by birds? $3.75 million Squadron 42 will feature a richer storyline and 45 total missions. This one has always been a personal favorite, because it implies there are two storylines. A weak-sauce one if funding had missed the goal, and a "richer" one if we were all good little boys and girls and gave the Crimperor enough cash. {Spoiler alert: Chris can't write a rich storyline.) $9 million All backers who pledge before June 28, 2013 will receive a Roberts Space Industries Class II space suit in their hangar. What is interesting about this goal is that the previous stretch goal was marked at $6 million, and that this is the only stretch goal linked to the $9 million figure.. The implication is that this space suit cost $3 million to create and add to the game. $18 million Exclusive star system for pre-launch backers. Only players who support the game before its launch will receive the computer coordinates needed to allow their jump drives to access this system. A private star system. With only 15 other players allowed on any given server, I'm not sure how important that will be. It still may not be safe enough for B'Tak. $19 million Manage Space Stations – Players will compete to own and operate a limited number of space stations across the galaxy. Wait, wait... what? I haven't heard anything about this. This seems pretty important. Almost like they tried to stick a gaming element in this game. Like everything else, jack poo poo is fleshed out and what exactly this means is left entirely to your imagination, but I'm surprised this doesn't get more attention. A game within a game - and for one-third the price of a space suit. $28 million New Starter Ship – The team at Consolidated Outland has decided to take Roberts Space Industries head on in 2944 by premiering the Mustang personal spacecraft. We will use these additional resources to create another ship company and starter ship for Star Citizen. The new ship will be offered for sale alongside the Aurora, so players have a choice between two options to begin the game! I find it interesting to note that they were able to meet a $28 million stretch goal, but we still don't have cockpit decorations from $24.5 million dollars back. Those must be some high fidelity bobbleheads. I might look at more later on. The list is immense, and every one of those items was added completely off the cuff, with no design, no planning, and no consideration as to whether or not any of it will work in any way at all. Just completely made up poo poo with a real-world price tag, and people paid it willingly. I wonder if listing all that stuff in the way they did legally obligates them to deliver, because if so, things are going to get real messy in a hurry.
