Even if it is.....

They spent a non-zero amount of time doing this. A company that is massively behind schedule.

Those fans aren't worth it; they move too much air for the bearings to actually be worth shelling out for.

High airflow: get cheap, surprisingly quiet Enermax fans for a fifth of the price before sales. Low airflow, gently caress you it doesn't matter so long as you have a good controller or a board with pwm pins

For $160 I could have bought a cheap rear end 5,000BTU air conditioner from Walmart and ducted it into the case for significantly greater performance. Guy is upsettingly bad at being a good and interesting attention whore

Miku is too awkward to be a shill. Who in their right mind who want him to advertise ones products?

I don't know man. People who exclusively do business with desperate hyperdorks with medicine cabinets full of dusty medication? "Look, you too could be as happy as the guy who is an anime girl online if only you 1.) stop eating your brain pills and 2.) impulsively buy products from our advertisers." But I agree about Miku not being a shill. The only backers I'm certain are genuine are the ones too shitbrains to be faking it. And Miku is the most trustworthy man in Star Citizen.

I think trees have a better sense of style and aesthetics than to try to grow inside something that hideous.

Some galactic defender you are, Space Cadet.

This was a decent enough flyby. Some elbows thrown here and there, and the Streetroller section was solid, but pretty light on substance overall.

The big takeaway I think is that we see yet again the mainstreaming of cynicism about the project overall due to the history. I addressed this in a civil debate with Cymelion, who popped into a reply I had written in response to a now deleted post of praise about CIG’s openness.

The fact that CIG seems to be trying to improve communications has been emboldening to some of the backers. I see that in the genuine optimism about CIG’s 3.1 handling. Positive though these changes are, it’s no small thing to dismiss all the sins of the past. It’s too much to ask or expect a clean slate after a good quarter. Roberts spoke of the need to earn back trust with backers and very well might make progress on that front over a year of quarterly releases. I don’t think it will be nearly so easy amongst the profane. Chris Roberts tells himself he hasn’t yet released anything so judgment should be withheld but he has and it won’t. And it’s not easy once you’re marked as a liar to win your way back into good graces even with a cadence of solid releases, as Sean Murray has found.

Imagine having a brain so loving broken you're still getting owned by a one-off joke on an offsite chat program over a year later.

At least that Chris Cooper dude is coherent enough to realize "Hey uh people are making fun of SC left and right, maybe it's not good to make it look like more people are refunding."

It's clear that none of those chucklefucks have ever developed an MMO.

Who gently caress is going to pay aUEC (which I believe can also be bought for cash), THEN wait 47 loving mins for their chariot?

As if you needed additional proof. The guy is a poser who seeks the adulation and admiration of others via his wanton acts of "pretending money spend". Which made him the perfect Star Citizen whale.

Also a moron.
