Twitter account that exists only since May 2019 and tweets almost exclusively about his SC purchases. Seems legit. It seems that the average/median estimate of sales was way too high, heh Dwesa fucked around with this message at 12:35 on Nov 30, 2019 |

It was basically a F5 pressing competition. Those who most obsessively hit F5 to be one of the first had a chance of getting one of the limited ships. c.f: Artificial scarcity

I like this one: quote:Freelancer117 Short answer, they tackle the technical debt by adding even more debt! You know, its probably like how its said, “If you owe your bank a hundred pounds, you have a problem. But if you owe a million, the bank has a problem.”

I was desperately trying to remember/find the medipen binding but it was uh... not enough, I guess. Also apparently I died hard enough to crash my game lol. Also, elevators are hilariously broken.

It really is crazy. Here we are, 7 years later where they are making a ships sale where there is no reduced price on ships, and after telling press that they have enough cash to develop the game when they were left with only 17 million before getting Calders as investors. They possibly lied again saying it was to market Squadron 42 when it has shown that it's financially impossible for them to keep the 46 million just for marketing.

A player's journal Let me preface this by saying I have been given a refund, 10 different emails and all assorted passwords from a couple years back. They require like three different handles/and or emails for some odd reason. Well not odd, it is because they can fleece everybody for multiple accounts. So I step into the world known as Star Citizen to try again as a free play affair. I'm all checked out via Spectrum, it downloads the dumpster fire to my super special SSD. No login works from the launcher. Then I file a trouble ticket. God dang fidelity.

I still think it's hard to believe that a couple of jpegs of a couple hundred bucks each are bough thousands of times by such a small audience. But maybe I'm just salty for being out of the game because I underestimate the Citizens' faith and tithing.

The funniest thing about the "What if it was a minimall" upgrade to the stupid drake pocket carrier is that... uhhh... they were supposed to do that with the Banu Merchantman like five loving years ago. Whoops, now that thing you paid $350 for in 2014 is obsolete. Sorry, nerds.
