I'm trying to actually read this list, and I'm not sure if the items are non-English and I'm missing something.

There will be more, but it will never be enough to stop the train. CIG not releasing 3.0 is more profitable than if they did.

Probably the best part of these messages will be that these people, despite being aware of the presence of people who already say this, will act as if they came up with these realizations themselves. There will be extra points if they even unknowingly quote Derek or Beer4TheBeerGod and act as if it's their own words. Somewhere in their subconscious they are aware, but the conscious part of them refuses to believe the suggestion. Unless of course if they have it on their own.

It's sort of like how Chris Roberts has "ideas". Like how he invented the sandworm all by himself.

Which gives me an idea. CIG should just dump all the ships into their tiny little space box, add sliders for all their "physics" values, solidify a 16 player environment, then release the best drat space version of garry's mod. That's really the only way they salvage what little they've accomplished before it all goes tits up.

one of the first things that got leaked was about the "realistic" damage model being completely thrown out/gutted

a lot of peeps were all but but but we saw it in action it EXISTS so how can it be gone????

lol

This is the best part of CIG.

They've somehow gotten to a point where if they show a pre rendered or in engine cinematic, that system exists and is fully developed on a "secret build". It's like despite being bamboozled for the past 5 years, the desperate need to believe is so strong that the game is in this constant state of "almost done!"

I used to care about people getting trapped in this scam, but it's really just funny now. If The Roberts wasn't such a cold dick, I'd cheer him on. So I'm split between wanting to see these crazy people lose a lot because of stupidity, and The Roberts finally get what he deserves for being a lying cheat.

In any event, I wonder if these guys buy RPGMaker games that have a sweet rear end opening cinematic and then just know that the underlying game they actually play is just hiding that cool stuff until they unlock a certain aspect of the game. The photorealistic 3D models and huge explosions and stuff are just hiding around the next 64x64 grass tile set and your 15 pixel tall anime avatar from a free art pack is just moments away from transforming! :ohdear:

I think people should be allowed to hunt any animal they want, but they have to do it with the same weapons the animal has. Want to hunt moose? Hold still while we strap these antlers to your head. Lions? Hope you're planning to grow out your fingernails and sharpen your teeth.

Actually, what I'd really support is a large area of land, devoid of any fauna whatsoever, where anyone who goes in can hunt and be hunted by anyone else who goes in. Basically, I want The Running Man to be a real thing.

TheAgent confirms one of my leaks: Chris Roberts removing himself from the project to allow himself to "focus more on rewrites and mocap (again)" is really a plot by Chris to slowly remove himself from the limelight before disappearing entirely from Star Citizen/CIG/RSI/etcetc.

Expect to see him in a non-extradition country within the next 3 months, most likely some march break bollocks.




There are also rumours that Sandi is in the process of divorcing Chris, again. This one may not be true as they didn't remarry, to my knowledge. This is easily verifiably by the fact that Sandi never wears her ring. Also, lol, she's getting full custody.

Since when did someone start leaking stuff to you?

Note, not saying you're wrong, though there's no realistic chance of Chris Roberts successfully distancing himself from Star Citizen, a Chris Roberts game by Chris Roberts.
