Why would I "by back inn" you loving citizen idiots. If CIG manages to get rid of Roberts and refactor their development cycle into something looking like actual game development and release a actual game. I will considering buying Star Citizen about 2 weeks after release when reviews are written and a consensus from people not in a god drat cult have been reached. CATE

ManofManyAliases posted:BTW Derek - the updated evocati build is pretty, drat good. You know this right? From your access? You know about the fixes and the ship that is now flyable? The new pirate swarm? The bar/lounge that is now open in GrimHex? DAY ONE FIXES. This is the lamest loving attempt at a burn. Imagine posting this unironically. A new ship? A "pirate swarm" (?), A BAR?! Think of the gameplay possibilities of a loving pirate lounge! INCREDIBLE. Truly Crobber is a visionary. So for 2016 CIG has managed: - couple of new ships - clothes shopping - one new space station - "persistence" (aka save your clothing) - "pirate swarm" - a new bar/lounge - 4v4 deathmatch FPS in an FPS engine (maybe) And this is being generous when several of these features are not yet live to the general public. Moma how long do you estimate it will take for them to do: Professional Mod Tools 100 Star Systems RSI Class II space suit. Hibernation Mode (Saving your game) “Behind the Scenes of Star Citizen” documentary film Escort Carrier, digital 42-page “overclock” Upgrade Handbook Ship engine modifier upgrade package, Battlecruiser Pre-launch backers get exclusive star system Jane’s Fighting Ships style manual, Manage Space Stations, RSI Museum will air monthly. They tried RSI Museum but gave up on it. Planetside FPS combat. Enhanced Mission Design for Squadron 42. Tamsa System. Tanga System. Cano System. UDS-2943-01-22 System. Kabal System, Oretani System. Procedural Generation R&D Team. (With the December 2015 “Pupil to Planet” video, they claim procedural generation teams are doing stuff.) Omni Role Combat Armor (ORC) mk9 Stellar Cartography (It’s defined as a map room that’s in the game directly, not to be confused with the $51 Million Map goal) Hadesian Artifact Updated Scanning Software. Engine Tuning Kit. Retaliator Commercial. Still in the plans. It’s not happening near term because all our cinematic folks are working on SQ42… but it’s a stretch goal and we will get to it. Alien Languages. (“We will work with real-world linguists to create distinctive and realistic alien languages for Star Citizen’s three biggest alien races, the Vanduul, the Xi’An and the Banu.”) Independent Arbitrator’s Guild. More Detailed AI Activities. Ballistic Gatling. Anvil Aerospace Crucible. Last seen as being in the “Concept Phase” as of Dec 2015/Jan 2016. Espera Prowler. Genesis-class Starliner. MISC Reliant.

The new pirate swarm? The bar/lounge that is now open in GrimHex? DAY ONE FIXES. A group of us had been out for a friend’s birthday and went back to his house in east London to watch the sunrise. There wasn’t much room to sit on the terrace, and the chimney looked like a good spot. I thought it would be dangerous to have my back to the chimney, so I sat on the rim with my legs dangling inside. In hindsight, that was my first mistake. I was about to climb out when I slipped down. The flue curved, so at first I was able to stop myself. I managed to get my hands free and wave them about a bit over the top of the chimney. Everyone saw them and said, “Look at Leo, he’s so theatrical and amusing.” I’m quite a proud man, and I didn’t want to admit I was stuck in the chimney and spoil the party. But there’s only so long you can maintain a weird hand puppet show. The others got bored and didn’t notice when I slipped again, about seven feet, down to the bottom of the flue, one floor down. I was worried, but not panicked – I just thought, “I’ve been rather silly here.” I started to shout: “Hello! Help! I’m in the chimney.” That carried on for about two hours. But nobody heard me, and eventually I could hear them all leave the party. That was a depressing moment. Then I tried to get to my phone, which was at my feet, contorting my legs and hands and trying to manoeuvre it up my body, but I kept dropping it. The chimney was almost exactly as wide as me, and very sooty, so it was hard to get any purchase. That went on for about three hours. Thank goodness my phone still had battery. If it wasn’t for that, I’d probably still be there. Eventually I got my phone up and called 999. “Ambulance, fire brigade or police?” they asked. “I’m stuck in a chimney,” I replied, and they repeated the question with more urgency. “I don’t know, I’ve never been here before,” I said, then decided on fire brigade. “I’m stuck in a chimney,” I said when I got through. “You’re what?” “I’m stuck in a chimney.” “Where?” At this point I realised that I didn’t actually know where I was. I called my friend Max to ask for the address. “Why do you want that? Are you going back?” he asked. “I’m still there.” “Really? I haven’t seen you for hours!” “Yes, I’m in the chimney.” The fire brigade took about 45 minutes to come. The first fireman on the roof declared that nobody could be down there because it was too narrow, and I was shouting “I am, honestly. Come on.” He threw down a rope and dragged me out, which is when most of my injuries occurred – the chimney was quite narrow, and my back scraped along it. I had also taken off my shoes, jeans and jacket as I tried to free myself, so I was only wearing my underwear and a shirt covered in soot. The firemen asked if they could pose for some pictures, because they had never seen anything like it. I obliged. I had been down there nearly seven hours. I never really despaired, but I did have moments when I thought, “Leo, what are you doing with your life? Is this where you want to be?” I also felt a bit guilty: people don’t pay their taxes so firemen can pull people out of chimneys. But I was relieved to feel the sunlight on my face. Max came to pick me up and cracked the first joke: “Well, you’re lucky you didn’t catch the flue.” After that, someone posted a picture of Dick Van Dyke on my Facebook wall. Then a shot emerged of my hands sticking out of the chimney, and people Photoshopped them into various pictures: Super Mario plumbing pipes, the poster for the movie 127 Hours, Battersea Power Station. Finally, a video clip emerged of me being escorted out of the building looking like a Victorian urchin. I’m glad my friends’ response was to make light of the situation. It would have been awkward if they’d been morbid. I’ll never look at a chimney in the same way again. As told to Ed Cumming.

I said, "Star Citizen is never coming out. Get a refund." His reply was, "No way man! Their secret testers are trying out procedural planets right now, and it looks AWESOME. You can fly from space to planets and do missions and stuff! We'll be able to play it before Christmas!". Me: "Duuuuuuuhhhhh... wut... no... How much are you in for?" Him: "Thousands! I just really want them to make this game!" Real people actually thought, like weeks ago, that CIG's bullshit about 3.0, planet missions in 2016 ARE REAL THINGS. Real people who have thrown money at this company. People who have been greatly misled. So to read now this crowing about a new LOUNGE, a new SHIP, in "version 2.6" that was expected months ago, with no sign or mention of "3.0 planets" etc... lol

He's using terminology he doesn't understand cause someone's told it to him, and it fits the CIG pattern of saying meaningless things to look busy. I could believe it's Chris Roberts himself telling MoMA these things, based on his grasp of development concepts.

Never in the history of games have so many labored to produce so little so unsuccessfully.

They wanted to keep some money in ships I had had upgraded to LTI, but I made them send them to the person that did the upgrade for me instead, since getting a refund meant losing your account. That person was me! Conveniently enough the transaction was done in the same email chain that brought us all that insight into the Wonderful World of Sandi.

MoMA/Lazrin are good backer barometers. MoMA is in here being super smug and douchey because CIG made a nonzero amount of progress and that somehow means the dream is real, and the backers are all being correspondingly smug now. The dream is real, critics are all wrong. I think it's a sign of a bottoming out of the community though. They are at the point where 0.00000001% progress toward the game is reason to celebrate, which I think shows how desperate they are getting. I'm curious to see if Star Marine will actually hold them over in the January - June stretch to Squadron 42 Prelude or whatever.
