What if your dad is a Jeb Bush-like nebbish? Do you still have to talk to him? We should just put a sticky on the main forum reminding people to call their parents, as they had the compassion and consideration to care for you when you were born and help you through challenges, changes and difficulties throughout your development.

FYAD is to SC thread as Ralp/Spanish Manlove et al were to Doobie's- "I don't see what's so funny about all this. You are all mentally ill" etc ad nauseum. There are worse trolls than not having a sense of humour It was funnier when FYAD would fill a page with Stone Cold Steve Austin gifs but now there aren't enough active FYAD users to fill a page

YOU are like a child in a candy store who just spent $3500 on candy and wants their $3500 worth of candy N-O-W. Learn some loving patience. ^ (I don't read Reddit/CIG but I assume there's at least one reply like this) I've watched the first ten minutes of this (still watching) and honestly, this is the sort of thing backers should be watching.

Wait a minute. There's a ship with 1000 crew? Out of those thousand people, how many do you think want to be the one guy flying it? How many people does it need to fly at a minimum? How much real money are you spending to turn into fake money to hire fake people to fly your fake ship? Jesus Christ, just when I think I've heard it all!

o hec whattup Dear backers: it's time to become get-your-money-back-ers. Funny thing is, SA is probably the most welcoming community to people who've gotten refunds vs RSI or Reddit. I have more respect for someone who gets out, at any point, than someone who's going to see it through to the bitter end.

Regarding LTI, and actually, the whole ships-for-sale thing: what a loving racket. Listening to the dude on that stream talking about how insurance only covers the hull, and you need separate weapons insurance to cover any add-ons. It's a loving video game! The idea that you could lose something forever that you paid for, and have to pay again to replace it, is just exploitative and unnecessary. What if your base ship is blown up and you just have your human? Do you have to buy in with real money to get a new ship?* My beef isn't with the backers, it's with the money-grubbing fucks who run the show. Don't give them any more money. In fact, take the money back that you've already given them. Yesterday showed you they don't deserve it, and no matter how disposable that income is for you, you worked too hard to give it to these people to waste. gently caress 'em. *Star Citizen: the only winning move is not to play

This game will end up being rushed like Sonic '06 because now they'll be scrambling to get a product out- not to secure funding, but to prevent them owing money to backers in the form of refunds in excess of what they have on reserve.

I hope people go back and re-watch the "FULL SANDBOX OPEN UNIVERSE" demo from Citizencon 2016 and see how badly they're being conned. I thought anybody could see it wasn't gameplay- but now it should be apparent even to the backers. Shooting the sandworm and being all "eeeeeerrr, probably not a great idea"- he's shooting through the worm without it registering whatsoever! The worm's 'reaction' is scripted. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuDj5v81Nd0&t=6882s I love the starcitizen_homestead thing clipping in and out of existence and the immediate transition back into the prerecorded pull-away shot. "That's the first time that's ever done that" People aren't sure if to applaud because that's not an ending of any kind. But if that wasn't a giant red flag for people I don't know what else could help them wise up. That was until the livestream the other day. e: taxxe

MeLKoR posted:Has some goon ever done an analysis of hourly donations over the years, accounting for time zones? I kind of remember something like that. Does anyone remember if there was any pattern that would account for US/EU daytime and time zones where it's mostly empty water? I find it insane that in 5 years there hasn't been a single hour where someone didn't throw money at CIG. starkebn posted:I'm pretty sure they're feeding in money from outside sources over time to keep the numbers looking good. Say if they got a million dollar loan they could trickle that into the funding tracker if they cared whether the tracker actually showed how much money they've actually scraped together since the beginning. Truga posted:I was thinking "that's some pretty awesome thing the players built, in spite of the game not working" but then I remembered there's no way to have more than 1 of those vending machines on the map (until now), because there's only one on the station. No, this is a thing CIG had to do. So the Caterpillar full of  "loot" was a fraud?  All these laughs, had under false pretenses! Space Arabic? Or those symbols they use to represent Olympic events?  TheLightPurges posted:Its a reference to a RSI post about how they needed to add rape to the game, the "inevitable consequence of piracy" "It should feel abhorrent to the player" as an excuse for including rape fantasy

BeefThief posted:I'm bored so I'm watching the CitizenCON presentation I ignored earlier this year. Is it anywhere near the level of hilarity of the holiday stream? There's a scripted, buggy demo that comes at the end, only of interest for its level of scam exposure. The Polaris commercial I found funny unintentionally, tricking people into thinking they're watching a Squaalude 32 preview and then it's just a corny ad for another lame ship
