It would be really really great if Frontier could put out an FPS and thereby dunk on CIG completely in every category. They won't, but I wish they would.

By not releasing an FPS, Frontier already has Star Marine beat.

No idea then on the foreclosure angle. They don't seem great at this researching thing.

MoMA, you brought up a traffic ticket?? Did that make Star Citizen real yet? Who cares if someone has gotten a traffic ticket, GUILTY!! or no? Are you sure you don't just have a crush? I think he is married or something, dude. Best to move on.

Hi SillyBones. Derek mentioned that he was walking into a Federal building, alluding to some made up story that he was filing something against CIG. I cracked a joke that he was walking into that building for a ticket. He went all warlord-y and stuff words words words. It was amusing for a hot minute.

Anyways, it's in the past now and we're all friends again.

Don't forget the California law offices, 2x FTC investigations and local state AG. It's a crack legal team and CIG should be scared.

They canned the original Warhammer Fantasy, their longest running franchise, in favour of a simplified system that allowed them to include fantasy space marines (the best selling part of 40k) and to trademark classic fantasy races like Elves and Orks by renaming them Aelfs™ and Orruks™.

This simplified system also included rules for certain legacy units where you would get a bonus for tricking your opponent to kneel irl, or galloping around the room like you were riding an invisible horse, and other such foolishness. It is thought to have been an attempt at discouraging use of the older models to get players to buy the new ones.

It also lost a lot of humor that the original version had and was just all grim-dark all the time.

Yeah, and one local AG, although there are some signs that consumer groups are getting more interested, which is why they're pushing for the minimum viable product.

6th edition is still out there, but with the model lines being entirely canned...The funniest thing was producing Total War, then wiping away the entire backstory.

40K is seeing advancement of their timeline too. 'The gathering storm' has Biel-tan splitting into three factions, Cadia has fallen and Robot Girlyman and other primarchs are returning.

there's a few star wars games coming along now, battlefront 2 should hit in september or october this year, a space sim/FPS (yes) and a 3rd person RPG are all in the works using the SW IP

All from Subsidiaries of EA, the current holder of the license for video games due to buying rights for SWOTOR before lucasfilm sold to Disney. None of them are happening during the current (7, 8 & 9 ?) movie trilogy.

The only upcoming title i saw for the new trilogy is Lego starwars force awaken, a clean, family friendly game. Disney has not published anything since the closure of its interactive studio in 2015. Its not really new games as much as EA milking all it can from the IP before the rights eventually return to Disney

Frontier already has a space game, if they're looking to diversify (which they should, space games will go out of fashion sooner or later) I doubt they would buy the IP for another space game.

Hope for a Telltales games instead. Doing Elite in the wolrd of the expanse would just be E:D on a smaller scale with slower ships and no shields.

If you want the Expanse ship feel then check out "Children of a dead earth" (http://store.steampowered.com/app/476530/) for what is probably the hardest (not in term of skill, in term of adherence to real science) sci-fi game out there

First, nice of you to troll public records looking for me.

FYI, I got a Red light camera ticket early this year. I paid an attorney $75 to beat it, since it was wrong (and court ruled illegal). Never stepped foot in a court building. Nice try.

When I come back from lunch, since it was already revealed to me that you are a CIG plant, now it would be my turn to uncover who you are, so you can end the bullshit. You have your "mate" to thank for that. And that's why I have a lockbin account.

Remember, you started this. And you had many chances to not make this personal. You should probably go back to the guide you were given.
