Q: Within the context of fantasy space flight ... Should there be an advantage to getting on your target's 'six' and staying there, or is that pretty much negated by 6DOF flight?

A: I will say that in all circumstances even with, you know, six degrees of freedom and the ability to, ah, you know, do lateral and horizontal and... ah... you know... vertical, sort of em, strafing, ah, as well as sort of, ah, you know, change your orientation and maybe not your velocity vector, ah, which is sort of the decoupled stuff, um, always getting on, ah, you know, getting BEHIND someone, or in their BLIND SIDE is a bit of an advantage, now the difference, in, ah, our system and flight model if you're a good pilot, is you'll be able to get out of that situation, you'll have more OPTIONS than you do in regular atmospheric, ah, you know air combat manoeuvring, but, em, you know, obviously you wanna get BEHIND someone because, you know, ah they can't bring their gun... you know, most guns are forward facing also visibility's usually forward facing so you know OUTSIDE OF the bigger ships with turrets then you know, ah, getting behind, ah, people or someone in a dogfight is usually, ah, it will give you an edge and advantage even if they can recover from it... ah, quicker than they can in, ah, you know, traditional, you know, ah, CURRENT DAY, atmospheric, ah, air combat.

They have plenty of cash.

Not from what I'm hearing. That's a false flag op designed for employees/contractors like you to take the bait and spread that info.

They have to keep raising money as a result. And since they know that Star Citizen, as pitched, is never going to see the light of day, SQ42 is apparently more manageable since there are only so many ways you can screw-up an arcade shooter. Though Chris apparently is doing just that (screwing it up).

Aside from that, anyone who thinks that they're going to sit around until the bank account is empty, knowing they're never going to deliver a finished Star Citizen, really doesn't understand how these things work.

I want to believe.

Was the alien languages question in this weeks 10 thing? I wanted to compare your transcript to it, but it didn't jump out at me. The closing transcript though is pretty good. I might not have capitalized some statements since I don't think he emphasized them. But drat, you are right on with all the ums, ahs and pauses.

So, thanks for the transcripts. Normally I don't listen to these, but I just had to see if it really was that poor.

Guys: I genuinely think I figured out something really important.

Chris Roberts is dumb.

I mean, like really dumb.

All this time we have been analyzing the moves CIG has made, and we kind of didn't understand the logic, right? I mean, we're all probably above average intelligence (proof: we're posting here and not on Reddit).

So these things don't make sense to us. But when you think about it from the perspective of a really dumb person, then the poo poo he says on 10FTC is loving brilliant. I mean it's like goddamn poetry.

I think we need to stop analyzing CIG because we're making fun of actual idiots, and that is cruel.

He's not dumb, he's stoned out of his head. Not even joking about that, I have friends who ended up like this, daily weed over many many years does this to some people. I had to cut the weed right down to 'rarely', I can see all the signs. His head is hosed. I would bet money on it, although probably not $108,000,000.
