I think it's brilliant that a single streamer with a shouty i-am-the-boss-so-do-what-i-say gimmick has cornered the bored Citizen stream-watcher market.

Him collecting so many monthly subscriptions from SC fans means the other SC streamers' subcounts are tanking :laffo:

“1000 Subs” Lol

He’s really hit the big time. I love how in the bizarre world of Star Citizen that makes you a huge “influencer”. But to be fair he just captured like 50% of the streaming market for the biggest PC game ever.

None of this is true or even half-true. There's no way anyone is generating 100's of thousands of in-game credits per night right now. There is literally nothing in the game that generates that kind of income except drug running, and that's going to work for one person per server because the supply/demand is server-side and one big ship can clean out the lab consistently. And you can't trade guns or money or any other items between players, so every individual person would have to grind up their own credit supply to participate. Also, there's no way to get 50 people in the same server.

This is just more self-aggrandizing from people who managed to stage one event for the sake of a 30 second video clip and are now bullshitting about how great and organized they are to anyone who will listen.

I'm confused. There's demand for virtual drugs in Star Citizen? Citizens were jerking off about how cool it would be to be a janitor or a bartender in game so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

Well, from their point of view, it's an absolute betrayal of the very principle behind supporting Star Citizen: if you buy in early and excessively, it's supposed to make you an elite and highly-respected person. But if all the respect goes to someone who's just better than you, or more likable than you, or more popular than you (or -- let's be honest -- probably all three)...then what was the point? How is your virtual Star Citizen life ever going to be better than your disappointing real life, if being "FIRST!" doesn't bring you the status you always yearned for?

Their ATV's get more and more pathetic every week. Here some poor junior dev struggles to explain what gameplay will come out of ArcCorp other than another screenshot generator for the droolling idiots on Reddit.

quote:

I think ArcCorp will be a great opportunity for players to meet up anywhere and create their own gameplay scenarios... like missions that could be really interesting... and you know... even landing on top of these buildings and maybe you know getting your sniper out and just watching for the right opportunity to strike against a player.


30 seconds latter...

quote:

Now while we aren't promising that you'll be able to fly or land everywhere, we are as excited as you are to fly through the man made canyons of the city covered planet!

They're literally just dumping another giant lifeless art asset into this mess. You could put 100 Hurstons and ArcCorps into Star Citizen and there still wouldn't be a game or anything remotely fun or engaging to do, other than to cruise the verse in your chariot and post screenshots to Reddit with captions of whatever amazing gameplay you're imagining in your head, which your JPEG spending addiction will enable in some far off future.

Edit: Citizen meltsdown as they realize that the the promise of these planets being dynamic living worlds with millions of intelligent NPC's and hundreds of hours of amazing gameplay was a total lie.
