Like star citizen already exists but is way better and it's called E:D, unless you're some sperg that wants The Sims in space and want to worry about not accidentally making GBS threads your space pants.

You shouldn't assume things. Like this just shows a basic illogic that plagues this thread.


You assume I am someone else
You assume I identify as He
You assume I possess testicles
You assume I have a narrative to push.
You assume this is a "new round"

This is sort of a nitpicky example.

If you make less assumptions in this case about Star Citizen. You can see things are going okay.

You are right about one assumption though. I do prefer encouragement. A major sign of mental illness is reveling in negative attention so I don't do that.

I assume your schtick has become tiresome. And what do you know, it has.

Not a marketer at all.

The name comes from an episode of CSI where they wrote about a subculture they didn't understand and thought Annabelle "Boo" Huxley was a good shot at a character name.

So this not-at-all-a-sockpuppet account is named after... a sockpuppet? Subtle.

Welp, I actually did something rare: poked around some of your videos there and peeked in at a DCS one and it turns out that is actually a fairly normal view from an A-10 or something. Apparently that cockpit style's in vogue.

I think I'm just too fond of the more open ED cockpits or the Ace Combat COFFIN style displays.

The A-10 is pretty wide open, it's just hard to tell from the way most Youtubers have their views zoomed in. This gives you a better idea of visibility:

They just released the 3.0 schedule, closed the classic forums, and started the referral contest. Also, somebody posted that downvotes on the reddit/starcitizen forum on any negative posts seem like a social media management company may be involved.

I can't wait for that ELE to be real Derek.

I'll truly miss all of you when it's done, though.

This will never be done. Even after CIG craters and Roberts goes into hiding, true believers will insist that he'll release the BDSSE if you just send enough bitcoin his way

They really do like the term "gish gallop" these days.

Why do they latch onto rarely used terms so easily? Must be an extension of the way they latch onto buzz words. :)

This helps them identify outsiders of the cult who must be ruthlessly indoctrinated or chased out

Hey pal, could you make a game like Star Citizen if you had 150 million dollaroos? No? Well what makes you think Chris Roberts can? Oh he made some good things 15 years ago? You realize any code from that long ago is about as useful today as punch cards from the 80s? Ah true, his wife was in to fetish porn. Never mind, he might have a shot then.

Oh, I could make a "game" of it, no doubt at all. The exact same game that Chris is playing, actually. But I wouldn't.

Who in their right mind designs a helmet with so many moving parts, prone to failure, for no utility at all, only to block 95% of your vision?

It's mind boggling.

I've watched through the full Gamescom demo a few times now and it's pretty clear that 3.0 is still far too buggy for release (that said, their internal dev build is probably further along). I imagine we wont see a 3.0 release until October. Squadron 42 is probably releasing early next year, though that depends on how much resources Chris wants to put into 3.1. Ultimately I think these delays are going to be worth it. 3.0 has changed and grown a lot since it was originally announced.
