I wonder when they will break 2.2 million Citizens. They operate world-wide, but not even 2.2 million people even registered an account. With free play weekends.

I still get some mails, and I just registered over a ref-link and spent 0$.



I love that every image is made just for me and they track it.

Calling their poo poo "anniversary" for a game still in pre-alpha and no design document yet and an unsuitable engine and no space combat in their space combat game is totally normal and good. Anniversaries happen all the time to things that don't exist.

It's funny how I occasionally catch myself falling back into their trap lol. Been "playing" more to try and get dumb poo poo for youtube, and the disparity between my lovely starter ship and even like... the next price tier up is so huge that I've been sitting here watching FTR's stream of the expo and going "I wonder if I have enough store credit hiding somewhere to upgrade" lmfao

Thanks for making the new fighter JPEG like 75 fuckin dollars, CIG - you probably saved me from giving you five bucks out of weakness the desire to have my "gameplay" suck a tiny bit less.

The lorville nightmare is real btw. I finally got in an instance where the ships are on the showroom floor and rentable, but there are 20 other commandos trying to spawn ships at the 6 hangars and get the gently caress out of the city at the same time. Unfortunately if you are placed in the queue and it finally spawns your ship, it will not tell you which hangar it put the ship in. Since the elevators are magic teleport boxes that take 1+ minutes to cycle, you will have your pick of about 3 before your poo poo times out and the ship is repossessed. I'm standing at the elevators watching commandos sprint in and out, desperate to find the right one.

Well, I finally found my rental ship, and then spent 2 minutes trying to get into it. Finally got in, and messaged the landing comm to open the hangar doors. Instead, they reclaimed my ship, teleporting me underneath the world to fall to my death and start over.

Failure is currently flying to the marker for his rental ship. It's 23 km away from where the elevator dumped him out. our elevators are real elevators, everyone. No smoke and mirrors, no smoke and mirrors, you're the smoke and mirrors.

Leave your enemies bewildered

That is an accurate summary of CIG's operating strategy, got to admit

Respawned, got a ship out of the hangar, am now on the 20+ minute flight back to Port Olisar to escape the helltrap that is Hurston. Why am I doing this again?

... goons are probably responsible for the ships not appearing at the expo, and for the whole game lagging and stuttering like no tomorrow because they just loaded the whole server into the newest, worst performing area. Dastardly!
