That would be 3.0; and they claim it's coming June 29th. Though they've already started removing stuff from it :allears:

They are angry, full of rage, of impotent nerd rage.

Why?

Because after 6 years, they still don't have their dream game and the only way they can consolidate and compartmentalize their feelings, is by taking shots at the bogeyman that CIG left for them because they sure as hell are never going to grow the balls or spine to stand up, stare Crobblers straight in the belly and demand some friggin answers firstly to where their money went and secondly as to why he's so incredibly poo poo at guiding a company to making an actual, playable game.

Reddit , you are all loving cowards, not a single one of you has the loving sack to ask the hard questions, not a single one of you posses a spine or an ounce of character or conviction ('cept fuzzys multiple ones, soon), you're all loving weak, thin skinned loving dweebs sat at your keyboards making tickly slappy fighting talk about a guy who has literally nothing to do with SC/S42/CIG bar having an opinion, "WAAAAAAAAH DS tweeted something I don't agree with WAAAAAAAAAH!!!", you absolute loving wimps pretending to be grown men. :reddit:

*This shitpost was brought to you today by a lack of coffee and no patience for fuckwits :D

If backers had put as much effort towards keeping CIG and Chris accountable as they do towards mocking Derek the game would have been out years ago. At this stage it doesn't matter. There is no game. There never will be a game. There will only be a continuation of CIG's failures, incompetence, and pathetic mismanagement until the money runs out. The story of Star Citizen is not about how one man managed to scam millions out of eager supporters. It's about how the unbridled enthusiasm of crowdfunding enabled a man to scam himself into believing he could do whatever he wanted. And there is no better conman than one who believes his own con.

I disagree. That's the worst type of conman. That's why this isn't a "scam" as Dr. Smart and others keep repeating. For it to be a scam, the perp needs to know it is a scam (mens rea, so to speak). While the conman should make everyone else believe him, he CANNOT become addicted to his own product, so to speak.

This is a instance of incompetence cubed. Nobody on the inside sees the full picture and everyone in the inside has this misplaced and insane hope everything will work out in the end (including Croberts). It's a modern Greek tragedy. Hubris writ large. The fallout will be loving glorious!
