The biggest suspension of disbelief in the SC universe is that British people/accents/names have survived 900 years into the future and have not been hosed out of existence by more viable, fecund genetic variances and cultures. Not only that, but hell, everything not given a bad alien name is given a bad British name. It's kind of like the supermarionation 'Thunderbirds' where it's supposed to be the year 2065 (100 years in the future from production) and outside a few swarthy Latin Europeans, every single person is white. An all-white future, boy, nobody's had that idea before! 1488 I guess if you don't work with or see any non-whites ever they don't really come up on your radar

I love Thunderbirds and seeing what neat, original futuristic poo poo British people can make makes me even madder at Robert Space. The ships in all the Gerry Anderson productions were interesting without being greebled to poo poo.

I had found a job at a large German automotive company, and was expected to start working in September in Munich. That's a fantastic short story. No even the Fourth Stimpire manifesto can top that. Anyway, you should do some spelling and grammar checks, and put it on Kindle. Profit!

[Alien lang]"I am ready to attack." "Grim Evil Station." "In." "One hour." "We have an understanding with the people slash aliens who run." "Grim Evil Station." "They should be good with our attack in." "One hour." Not that anything remotely this in depth is ever, ever going to happen. The best SC will ever manage is to maybe get random NPCs to walk around aimlessly and get random ships to go from point A to point B. Once they leave a game zone they'll probably be gone forever. I don't think you'll be able to follow the life of a random trader. But who knows! It's Chris Roberts and he has the golden touch! Just because the game right now has nothing like this, 5 years in, doesn't mean that in an hour from now they won't release a huge cutscene showing how Trader Bob has an in depth life; and thus this whole system is "in the game!" In a secret build of course, and only as a YouTube video.

I think it's been brought before, but this could be a really good investment for CIG's marketing money: https://www.newscientist.com/article/2111613-the-perfect-cybercrime-selling-fake-followers-to-fake-people/ 50k followers for 250 US$, seems a lot more efficient than the existing marketing people hired by CIG.

Does that 53% include all the cunts who've spent the last couple of years constantly making GBS threads asset flipped trash onto Steam? I guess they do manage to "release" their "games", so they're still leagues more competent than Croberts, but still...

That Alt-right cocksucker Mike Cernovich self published through Amazon, nothing more than a kids book for racists during the Trump campaign and became an over night celebrity and multi millionaire. I think using Amazon to self publish a book about the Star Citizen Chronicles would be nothing short of the most delicious of ironies since...Well, lumberyard.

Branch out into mug and t-shirt sales too:

Hi, just a quiet reminder for you all to take a small amount of time out of your day of screaming at the computer game to call or visit your parents. They raised you with care and love and would like to hear from you and yours about how your life is going, hobbies etc.

quote:To sum this section up: I think CIGs focus is wrong. They got enough money. They are funded. They should focus on the actual gameplay and less on adding more and more fluff. Also rethink your PR. Act like the company you are, funded by the people. All your bills are paid by us, treat us with respect Bingo. Although, this is not a recent development. It's been this project's biggest problem (as far as actually developing a viable game goes) for years.
