Ehhhh it's a one month old account with only two posts, both of which are in the refund subreddit. I'm not saying it's a false flag (and it doesn't really matter if it is) but it might be.

Then again could just be someone who made an alt account to announce their refund so their main account doesn't get burned.

Yeah, that was my theory as well.

Also, not every backer has a Reddit account. Heck, I hear from people all the time who didn't even have a Twitter account, but created one so they could DM me questions about how to get a refund.

Well, to be fair, nothing compares to Star Citizen when it comes to vision. You can do anything in StarCitizen. Anything at all. The only limit is yourself. Welcome ... to StarCitzen. You can do ... anything in StarCitizen. The infinite is possible in StarCitizen. The unattainable is unknown in StarCitizen.

You can also have sex with your spaceship.

The game is basically finished but because of the unfaithfulness of the UNBELIEVERS our savior Roberts in his mercy and wisdom has withheld it until such a time as the world can be brought to enlightenment. The game will be finished when we're ready and we are not ready.

Still your tongues of complaints and lies. Can't you see that you are only delaying things for everyone? I have seen thing you wouldn't believe. I have been to the Fourth Stimpire. I have tasted the flesh. Hush now. Remove your tongues. Come, let me show you the light, let it change you as it has changed me.

Chris gauges public opinion daily. He climbs out of bed and licks his finger after walking into the second story patio of his mansion. He holds this finger aloft, checking to make sure his shadow just barely touches his parked custom Porsche, for optimum gauging.

He waits, then curls his silk robe tighter around him and says, "Not enough belief. Star Citizens get nothing today. Instead I will book my monthly vacation." And clicks his tongue and shakes his head sadly.

If only there could be more belief. If only.

"In stock" is still the funniest thing about Star Citizen, right next to "Ben Lesnick, Developer", "Ben Lesnick, Chris Roberts' historian"

You must not remember the "horse armor crash" during Oblivion when Bethesda ran out of horse armor to sell to people. Thousands... millions of people... desperate for horse armor had to be turned away. Many horses died that day.

I wonder what the hell these people think "has physics" means. As if physics were something you scoop out of a jar and smear all over your monitor. It's all just a simulation. The developers decide what to model and how accurately depending on level of detail they want to create, the amount of processing power available, and how they'd like the game to 'feel'.

Imagine if you will commando, the stress of the Sims to keep your avatar from pissing their pants, the stress of farming and figuring out how to actually grow a crop instead of just crash tractors into other tractors, all combined with the stress that at any moment your entire farm could be attacked by other players or NPCs.

I'm sure cig has this all thought out and how you can fly through space and farm for hours unmolested while also at the same time somebody not farming can be attacked and have fun flying through space at the same time. It's all just, you know. Code on these ideas and math and things and ... oh sandworm in your farm ship!!!

Well you see in Star Citizen every single thruster and jet is modeled and realistically apples real world physics to your movement.
Not in the current edition of course (What we have currently is ships flying around in no clip mode). But when it all gets released in version 4.0 it will be game changing.

If the nut that hold the lamp tied to the bedside table can't clear off because of the vibrations of the ship, there is no physics.

Forget that. I am just going to pony up the cash for the FarmBot Xtreeme Pack, along with the WiseCracker Personality Pack for them, so while they farm they can say bad things about Derek.
