I can help
If anyone wants this thing to be a game and released with a complete set of basic features, it's definitely any developers who are working on it.

I doubt Crobblz is of any help whatsoever for that goal.

Have to remember Robert's creed...the money injected is worth x4 as much versus if they had a publisher.

So according to his Hollywood accounting (which usually excludes marketing costs) this baby is sitting at around 640 million of virtual funding. Thus, 640 million should be enough for everyone.

So, Warframe just had their 100th devstream:

If you ask me, Warframe is far better example of open development. You don't need to inundate people with literal TMI to be 'open'. You simply need to say what you're working on, why you're working on it and how long it'll take-- we don't need to know that you finally fixed doors for the 30th time by realizing that .5+.5≠.999

BoredGamer at least recognizes that LTI is supposed be "Life Time Insurance".

Maybe he can explain to everyone exactly how it works, and why the SSD Users should be Angry about this sleight-Of-hand.

140 characters at a time.

He should. Sort of dictate exactly why he’s upset. He needs to explain the specific mechanic that he feels he’s being conned out of.

Oh that’s right, he can’t, because five plus years into the project nobody actually knows what the hell the game is going to be or do.

When does SC become the most expensive video game ever? Not counting the marketing blitz that causes the COD/GTA games to have ridiculous budgets, just the cost of making the damned thing in the first place?

To be fair, most of SC's $161m budget appears to have been spent on marketing.

'Quite a few' is not quantitative, and I'd like to demonstrate that taking the population of the world and dividing it by the number of players "enjoying" Star Citizen gives you a minute fraction of one percent of a single person.

Therefore nobody is playing this game.

Next, I'll prove that nobody has a weight problem in the local galactic cluster, so treat yourself to a cream cake.

It's ok I'm sure Mr. Watkins has a very reasonable hourly rate for creating a full language from scratch.

Turns out he also has a company that does focus groups and marketing/marketable studies as well
