You know if you think about it, the script for SQ42 was apparently in one of the PU updates so really, technically Squadron 42 is out right now.

According to some people, apparently not. I hope it kills them to know there are highly successful women in the world. I hope there are women in their lives who can look down on them with sufficient contempt that the only thing that makes them sleep at night is the mere thought that if they asked her "think quick, right hand!" they would be justified in dreaming that a woman's place is in the kitchen sand not in "mans world".

The most baffling thing about this, and there are many, is that he somehow thinks cavemen used to shout 'left a bit, left a bit more, no now right a bit' while out hunting :psyduck:

I would bet good money that Star Marine only started in August when the heat was getting to hot to ignore because of all of the promises Chris has already made and time was running out, plus Chris is almost fresh out of stalling tactics. It is far easier to poo poo out a crappy FPS module in an Engine designed for FPS then be able to deliver 2.6 as well as whatever the dung beetle devs working on SQ WhoopedeeDoo would be able to show.

As of this moment, no build has been pushed. And I have no reason to believe that a "SM only" build is every remotely possible. I mean, think about it - how would that even work? Whoever says or thinks that's even possible, is lying. Unless of course they're saying that the build update is only going to contain SM components, and nothing else. Which, if true, means that SM is only now being enabled for Evocati, and never was before.

Hey, just a little 'life hack ' for any females reading this, if you clench a fist, hold out your left hand, point your index finger up and stick your thumb out it makes the shape of an 'L'. If you do the same with your right hand it will just be nothing (well, a reverse 'L').


e. like this...


But what if I accidentally use my middle finger? Is that still good for the big, scary world or will I be eaten by the sabertooth cats and never hunt the great big porpoise of the world?

I don't think I can comedy all of the "girls dumb" posts so this is my last! Note it down upon thine scribbled notes, the number of posts necessary to defeat the simple mindless woman.

The best thing about this epic slapfight is that it doesn't matter one bit, because you'd have to drown in kool aid before seeing SM as anything but a giant turd
And its sooo much worse than the Ilfonic demo they showed like 20 months ago anyway. Yay for progress

In addition to "42", and towels, I think CIG have ripped off something else from HHTTG:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technology_in_The_Hitchhiker%27s_Guide_to_the_Galaxy#Sirius_Cybernetics_Corporation

"It is very easy to be blinded to the essential uselessness of [their products] by the sense of achievement you get from getting them to work at all. In other words—and this is the rock solid principle on which the whole of the Corporation's Galaxy-wide success is founded—their fundamental design flaws are completely hidden by their superficial design flaws."

This is clearly the truth of the matter.

Cig gives bespoke builds to each avocado, some with Star Marine, some without. Some have gun x, some don't. Some have red lazors, some have green ones. This way they can have 100% definitive proof who the leaker is.

Star Marine, Sniper gun 253, Green lazors, Glass shattering 2.02 - That's BUTTK1KK£RR42's account, we've tracked Derek down!

You uncovered Chris Roberts plan with pixel coloring. Only we didn't hear the full sentence!

Is this the real life?
Is this just Star Marine?
Caught in a landslide,
No escape from Evocati.

Open your eyes,
Look up to the 'verse and see,
I'm just a poor boy, I need no Idrisies,
Because I'm easy come, easy go,
Little ships, little posts,
Any way the builds go, doesn't really matter to me, to me.

MoMA, just killed a man,
Put a NDA against his head,
Got him triggered, now he's dead.
MoMa, The Thread had just begun,
But now You've gone and thrown it all away.

MoMA, ooh,
Didn't mean to make you cry,
If it's not updated this time tomorrow,
Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters.

Too late, Derek's doxxed again
Sends shivers down my spine,
Mod's are aching all the time.
Goodbye, Star Citz, I've got to go,
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth.

MoMA, ooh (any way the builds go),
I don't wanna update,
I sometimes wish I'd never backed at all.

I see a little silhouetto of a man,
Star Marine, Star Marine, will you be in 2.6?
Hurricane and fighters,
Very, very frightening me.
(Gladius) Gladius.
(Gladius) Gladius,
Gladius Carrack-o
Freelancero-o-o-o-o.

I'm just a poor boy, nobody loves me.
He's just a poor boy from a poor family,
He can still tell his left from his right.

Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?
Derek Smart! No, we will not let you go. (Let him go!)
Derek Smart! We will not let you go. (Let him go!)
Derek Smart! We will not let you go. (Let me go!)
Will not let you go. (Let me go!)
Never, never let you go
Never let me go, oh.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Oh, MoMA mia, MoMA mia (MoMA mia, let me go.)
Croberts has a Constellation put aside for me, for me, for me.

So you think you can dox me and spit in my eye?
So you think you can ban me and leave me to die?
Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby,
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here.

(Oh, yeah, oh yeah)

Nothing really matters,
Anyone can see,
Nothing really matters
It's never gonna be (pause) released.
Any way the builds go.


RIP my man Freddie.

God drat this thread got salty. Hey remember when we would all laugh at CIG's screwups together? Like maybe a few hundred or thousand pages ago?

Those were good times.

I think you guys might be losing sight of the point. Whether SM is in the game, or is a .pak file clogging up some nerds' bandwidth, or whether it's canned, you know it just doesn't really matter. It's going to be garbage. It was garbage on the livestream and it will continue to be garbage, no matter how many thousands of dollars that autists throw at it. Same for SC in general. Chill out.

The only issue with doing a toxx over Star Marine is I don't really see anyone in here who can prove definitively one way or another that it's straight up not in the current build.

Agreed. In fact, I told Beet that I would sweeten the pot.

quote:

If they can prove that SM was in Evocati from the original release, I won't engage in ANY Star Citizen discussion for the rest of the year. No trolling. No blog. No posting about it. At all.

The key is that I believe that they will try to push SM in the coming builds. So given that Shitizens are lying bastards, if they take up the challenge after that happens, that's cheating - then I'm hosed.

So, I'm not even going to update my build; this way I can take a screen cap of the current build to match theirs (which would be different)
