What units would i measure this in

Pledges/assests?
Spectrum post / seconds ?
Reddit time / time in game ?

Have thought of a name for the unit?

Croblets ?

It can be measured in dollars

asses of creation's battle royale test* is out and it's a new level of trash. the subreddit is an exact duplicate of star citizen with the whale defense force telling everyone akshually you don't understand game development. i'm sure some of the same faces are there but my brain shuts off after reading reddit for more than 90 seconds.


*not a test, this is going to be the game because it's all they have.

I'm in awe once again of CIG's ability to completely flip the script without having actually done anything.

Subreddit temperature check:

Did you know there's a new ship?
new ship!
NEW SHIP!
full of useless rooms!
omg show me every detail
how much can it carry I need to know right now
look how big I can gape this hangar
NEEEEEEW SHIIIIIIP
but you're gonna let me test it right
p.s. it costs 900 dollars and doesn't work

How about some threads about other topics?
Nope, not really. Nobody's posting in anything but 890 threads
oh wait here's one about mining. Spoiler: it is bad

Can this possibly continue through yet another bad roadmap update this Friday?
I'd bet on it. Excitement over the yachtship will probably silence all criticism for a week or more until it leaves Evocati. Then you'll never see it again, because even the big whales weren't stupid enough to buy one of these things.

Things are looking up...

Talk to Transformer has gotten and update, and tradition demands it:

Star Citizen is not a scam! You do your research. The $99 price you see is actually the current market price of the game. And if you've never played a Wing Commander game, that's just how it is. That's why I'm telling you this - it's not a scam. I will not lie to anyone. You want to be a part of my team? I invite you to join our mailing list to get more info: https://www.robertsspaceindustries.com/forums/...php?t=384750 And again, don't give up, you can work as a designer, programmer, artist, or even better, a PR person. It doesn't matter what you do, as long as you work within the boundaries of what everyone else here in CIG does." - Chris Roberts

__________

Chris Roberts has fled the country with hundreds of millions in stolen funding! It's time to see if he can be stopped. We need to fight to stop him. Please click here to help spread the word about our campaign!


"I have been in and out of prisons and jails but never in a situation that involved stealing from the public to fund my own personal business." - Chris Roberts, the man behind the scams known as the Roberts Institute.


Chris Roberts, owner and President of The Roberts Institute LLC, is now running a legal scam that may go as far as "the largest Ponzi scheme in history". His website promises to help people avoid criminal prosecution by paying off debts in exchange for "free courses" in topics like "The Art of Financial Management" and "Investing for the long run".


Mr. Roberts and his company claim to offer high quality, real world guidance in investing that is based on financial theory and has received a "Certificate of Financial Success" from one of the most prestigious investment banks in the United States.


But we are not buying it. He has been caught scamming people.

__________

Interestingly: the algorithm likes to attach 'promotional' material to Star Citizen related content. Stuff like made up urls for 'click here for referral code' or 'use link for store discount'. Given that it is generating this based on what it has 'read' prior, the association it has formed with desperate marketing his absolutely delicious.

I missed the new fangled flight model hilarity in 3.5 which is sad, but Sarsapariller did good in explaining the gently caress ups that continue to ensue.

Absolutely not good sir! Warframe have floofs, not plushies. CIG would never do something as devious a steal or copy from others. Chris Roberts' high standards would never allow for such behaviour.
