Mukip posted:Yeah, well that's some bullshit. It's disingenious how they push this "verified but not really" angle. They aren't confident in their sources but they went to publication anyway. Until we hear something solid about it the shoddy behavior of the Escapist casts doubt on everything. What the hell are you talking about? It's not "verified but not really." It's "not verifiable enough to be considered." The Escapist: Posts a detailed account including what methods were done to talk to the sources, how and when they were contacted, and shed light on what they didn't consider to be trustworthy enough to go to press. CIG: writes long letter saying "it's not true because we say so!" The Escapist was completely confident and continues to be, and when challenged is still standing their ground on the article.

quote:I'm interested in how CIG will deal with the consequences of the pledge system. Will CIG balance the game to protect the value of all these pledge assets? There is an enourmous amount of Q&A to be done between now and launch, including a lot of balancing. The problem is, the pledge ships have already been arranged in a sort of hierarchy based on what CIG imagines is their desirability. Potentially we could see a situation where your $125 dollar spaceship is very easily attained- market forces or balance reasons could even make it less valuable than a ship from a cheaper pledge tier. CIG are selling things whose ultimate value neither they nor their customers can predict- which is fine. That sort of thing happens all the time. The problem is that their pricing scheme implies a certain relative value that doesn't really exist. Caveat emptor I guess. quote:I digress. I did have a unique opportunity to sit down for lunch with a mod and pick his brain. It was also nice because both of us have friends on the development team and have been able to see behind the curtain. So, we were able to share some stories. Beyond that, (put on your tin foil hats, those who are paranoid) multiple members of CIG's dev team are goons and so are some of the mods . CIG is quite aware of the rules of SA, but they wish to use a different set, not that they aren't learning some hard lessons along the way. quote:Oh god, seems I have spent enough to have access to the concierge. So this is what being a space Romney feels like ? quote:Look, it's fine that CIG wants to increase funding via the sale of more ships. I just think this atmosphere of exclusivity they are cultivating for everything from the Super Hornet to the Idris-P is encouraging some very irresponsible behavior from their fanbase. I'm not aware of any other crowd funding projects where people spend student loan money or offer timeshares so they can pledge $1000 to the game. The response: "Jesus Christ, check your privilege you loving sperg. All the ships will be available to everyone in the game regardless." and "Seriously, what the gently caress? Why are we (yet again) having to devote pages and pages of discussion frantically defending the game against a couple of people claiming CIG has some nefarious / incompetent intent behind everything and are trying to screw everyone? This is getting very old, and I'm tired of repeating exactly the same arguments from several pages ago." I see a number of folks who have still been following the "development" of the game since the old threads and I'm wondering, do you remember the event/post when your opinion changed on this project?

I will be the first to admit that I was loving hyped for this when it was first announced. 2012 was a long long time ago and nothing progressed at all. You also need to keep in mind that all of the horrible poo poo thats been leaking out of the poop factory just didnt exist yet.

It piqued my curiosity enough that I went and made an account at rsi. but I did not bite as I have penty of digital space ships behind a paywall in EVE, I dont feel like repeting the mistake, Then I stuck with the threads, dropping in to see it gradually shift in course. Edit : Eonwe posted:what do you think Can I be front admiral of the shitpost fleet?
