Pretty good place to start if you need some 10FtC outright lies: https://starcitizentracker.github.io#broken

Ask Chris to show the court his 20 Million AI agents. Had it in 2015: "We actually have a full Universe simulation that runs� we actually don't need it to run on any particular bank of servers. It just actually runs on one server, and it simulates about 20 million AI agents. It simulates the AI agents in a very sort of high-level manner."

I know the Streetroller thing is happening but :lol:

So Here's The Deal: I'm suing Chris Roberts for consumer fraud in small claims court.
Everything he's ever said will be used against him as a public figure, and his litany of LLC shell companies don't protect him.
He either comes to Jersey to defend himself, or get's a default judgment of being a fraud.

loving blow me.

for the DisturbedJim / RedChris shoutout, yet another :five:

for the Batgirl reference, and a final :five:

EUROGAMER: Star Citizen, I am Disappointed

Oh hey, finally a news story not harping on the latest lawsuit development. Don�t these clickbaiters realize there is a GAME being made here?

Oh wait... Oh no...

Oh

There are so many fair-minded complaints in this write up of 3.0 that to bold them all would make for an ugly sight. It�s the first time in a long time a major outlet has written an actual review of the game as playable, and man, it�s not pretty.

My fav post from the almost unanimously critical (of sc) comments section, where cultist comments are downvoted into oblivion by otherwise rational, reasonable discussion.

It�s not easy to express this point as succinctly as she/he did:

"all we expect is a working core, really, with some taster content around it"

As a game developer, an illusion that I labored under for years is that you spend most of your time building an engine and then someone else comes along and scripts some missions on top of it relatively late in the day. Then I realized that's why I was making terrible games. The content is key and needs to inform the engine development. Where it sounds like SC is at, is a very bad place to be after 5 years.

I'd assume the same happened as when I did it back in October 2015, got it all back (and some extra, because this is Clownshoes Incompetence Games) then Ras tried it literally just 1 month later, and the bastards straight up stonewalled her.

Who the gently caress knows what goes on in their incompetent brains, really. But good luck to ya Streetroller, if nothing else you made this thread good again. Was a cool video.

Less about money, more about shutting down the scam.
I'm trying to take away his power of selective refunds, and disparagement of the less fortunate who live in areas that don't offer any options.
