These are just random finds, not the result of deep dives. There are surely many more experiences and possibly some are more positive. I’ve not seen one but I’m sure they’re out there. Somewhere.

Wandered over here from the Politics section of SA. Feels right at home alongside the Freep and RWM threads. Has anyone written a book about this yet? This is a treasure trove of incompetence and grift and that's an opportunity to tell a way better story than Star Citizen could even dream of. Great investigative work, goons.

Foo Diddley posted:It'll just be a printout of the Star Citizen threads here Derek’s greatest crime was limiting the flow of information; an exciting new source would join the thread and he would immediately shut them down under false legal pretense in order to control the narrative. Thread is ultimately better without him. Still waiting for him to burn the jpeg ships to ashes (I do support him in his crusade against SC, but not his presence on SA).

Every time new information comes out, I’m filled with relief that I don’t have to endure The Derek Cycle anymore. 1. New information arrives in thread 2. Discussion ensues 3. Derek Kramers into the thread to highlight a piece of information we already picked clean. 4. When this is pointed out, Derek explains that he’s known about this information for way longer than we have because of sources/inside info/gamedev knowledge only he possesses. 5. Someone points out this is horseshit. 6. Derek argues a completely different point that he knows he can win, and uses this to support why his original point was in fact correct. 7. Someone again calls horseshit. 8. Derek sulks until… 1. New information arrives in thread. The circle has been broken, by and by(e).

August Set 10 ==CIG sells viewing access to CitizenCon== CitizenCon is their convention thing, for their "games" that haven't released yet. This is typically the one time a year they bring out the secret build where Anyways an e-mail to concierge revealed that they ($800-$1000+ spenders) would be getting streamed viewing capabilities for free, while everyone else would have to pay $12? $20?

Chris is going to walk on stage and deliver 12 hours of the greatest gaming experience known to man.
