Remember when that Ben fan girl, tried to use blizzard numbers to try and come up with how much SC was going to make on launch. Good times.

That entire fluff piece about the bartender is fuckin insane lol. Aside from being absolute nonsense, it doesn't even make sense from an in-lore perspective. Why is the Star Citizen equivalent of sky mall interviewing a random nobody bartender at what is - let's be honest - an outdoor food stall?

Bootcha posted:I honestly think CIG could drop selling spaceships, straight up charge a $12 a month subscription at this point, right now during alpha, and maintain it's funding. Everything else is just frosting on the money cake, by this rough metric alone. A subscription is too easy to walk away from. You can just click "cancel" when something disappoints you - when a patch is garbage again, your ship is pushed back from flight-readiness, etc etc. You're not bought in as heavily. You can too easily downgrade from "giving money" to "not giving money" and tell yourself you'll just wait for a bigger update. Ah, but the dream of one day flying all the ships in your account? Which you can open up at any time and just look at, imagining the wondrous future? Which just keeps getting more and more wondrous as you buy MORE ships that you'll get to fly someday? That keeps nerds buying.

Rotten Red Rod posted:How much space does SC take up? I'm thinking of trying the free-fly thing just to get a personal experience of the trainwreck I spend so much mental energy following, but I only have a 250 GB SSD and if I have to uninstall Borderlands 3 and The Outer Worlds to play this, fuuuuuuck that. If you do this, you will spend roughly 100% of your time in the "game," assuming you can get it to load, thinking one thing: "This can't be right." Playing this train wreck is like being a character in a horror film who feels slightly "off" before the actual killing starts. Loading the wank pod could take 30 second, 3 minutes, crash to desktop, or any other number of possibilities. Why the variance? Other games' load times don't vary like that. Then you'll run down a corridor and get 40 FPS, or maybe 6 FPS, or maybe you'll clip through the floor, or maybe you'll crash to desktop. Who knows? It could be anything. If you last long enough to attempt to find the fun in all this, you're in for a heaping helping of extreme confusion, and that voice saying "this can't be right" will start to get hoarse. Every moment in his existential gaming hell is filled to the brim with realizations and epiphanies as you realize, piece by piece, just how big a scam this is, and you're torn moment to moment between laughing at the absurdity of it all, and falling into a deep depression due to the fact that something this obvious managed to fool so many. The experience of Star Citizen is nearly limitless. The only thing you won't find here is a game.

Also they run into a bug where he exited the ship and turned it off but the engines were still going crazy... the solution is to just leave it on? ANyway.. 1:10 crash - then a crash a bit later then we take a fly mission we spend 40 minutes flying and not getting to land cause lol ux. Scrubbing the timeline it looks like it crashes at least once an hour. just lol.
