Just want to give my thanks to Derek for his shenanigans archive thread and to Gorf for providing the sheer mass of information and analysis thereof that the thread links to.

I can now follow this thread with a modicum of understanding. The origin of the term Stimpire still eludes me though, is it simply referencing the eeeediocy of the spergs?

Long story short is some 14 year old (or who knows, 30 something cheeto stuffing monster) under the name "Zealot" posted the Stimpire lore in the "Fan Fiction" site on the official RSI forums.

It sat there for days. Hell, you get banned for expressing any dissent within minutes on the main threads. Yet this torture porn flew under the radar because they don't read that sub-forum.

Just know that July 14th is cool.

I can't imagine there are many games that could. That poo poo is huge and weirdly detailed. You can see the atrium inside the big tower.

I wonder if this was supposed to just be the flyover map or something.

My guess a flyover or background model with a few details embellished like the atrium and the landing platform for player interaction. I doubt that anything else could be interacted with, that map is mostly for show.

Speaking of which, why does every planet have these huge skyscraper cities? I could see Earth having them, but all the colonies seem to have them, even the destroyed colonies in Vanduul space. It kind of dilutes the idea of there being this big frontiers and outposts when those planets have giant megalopolises that look like they can house a few million people.

Cheers for that, I'd assumed it originated on the SA forums and wasn't something I'd find with google.

I love watching other people get totally awe struck when watching Star Citizen videos or watching people play. Seeing that light of "Oh drat. This is real. This is amazing." hit their eyes is a great feeling.
On another note. I got distracted because the guy in the video didn't bother to move his lotion and tissue box before recording.

Obviously the lotion and tissue box was for crying and dry skin from crying, right?

They're going to be even more sad to learn that the devs have spent 90% of the last 3 months cobbling together demos to show at Gamescom and CitCon versus actually working on the main game, and it won't get any more attention until CitCon is over.

Unlike the furries of Star Citizen which merely pretend to be dogs this guy was able to successfully transpose his mind with the dog just before this video was shot.

Apologies for dredging up the past, but this is all new and exciting to me. Watching Sandi's replies disintegrate into fragmented psychobabble is just the sweetest kind of schadenfreude.

There should be a goon propaganda video of a one-sided space battle where the winning side is hammering the loser's shields with Beer's well thought-out prose.
