Star Citizen is the 6th most expensive video game to develop ever in adjusted 2016 bucks, even higher if you factor out marketing budgets which CIG claims they don't have even though the only thing they actually do is marketing.

Fallout 4 isn't even in the top 43

I would wonder what actually made the most money ratio wise. I'd just as soon assume WoW given how god drat long it's been running with subscription costs etc

Hmmm. No. How about another page?

Nope. I think everyone involved has pretty much cashed out at this point.

TBF, that manual was a parody (obviously) of something a bunch of Shitizens came up with that had all these highly detailed tactics and strategies for a game that hadn't even seen game play demoed yet, it was all theorycrafting.

I kinda forget, but I believe there was a bit in it about space semaphore and thinking it would play some sort of poo poo in the game, which is basically when you a lot of it was pulled from navy training manuals.

If you go to the Star Citizen website and make a thread about Space Semaphore within 72 hours Chris Roberts will show up and tell you that it is going to be in the game and he's very excited about implementing it.
