Refunds were stopped when they released the 2.0 right? So that is it then, they are claiming this is release in a legal sense. Bahahaha the scam is real, it's real Bahahaha

Refunds are only stopped for some people depending on the amount, when they pledged and where they were in the CS queue when the new edict was passed. I had three people DM me today thanking me for helping them get their refund within the past 48hrs

Guys, I have a new strategy for people trying to get refunds. Write something like this:

'I am deeply and mortally afraid of birds, and am triggered immensely by the hint of any kind of bird. Even writing the word has made me break out in a cold sweat. The inclusion of birds will render this entire space sim traumatic and scarring, and thus, I must ask for my money back. I was hoping to get away from my phobia this Christmas season, but sadly, my space dreams will turn to nightmares with your new vision for Star Citizen.'

As a birdperson I am deeply offended. This is speciest and immensely offensive. Is there a slider for black people in the 'verse?

No.

I realise that Sandi performs that function outside the 'verse, but the point remains.

For a sec, I thought I wasn't going to get my 30 dollar refund 2 months ago, but then when I said that shitizens harassed my teenage daughter (my backer backstory is that I fathered a child at eight) and threatened them with chargebacks, they gave me my refund.

So try that.

In the eyes of the backer, a 'bug' apparently includes something integrated throughout the entire system, including areas where it is explicitly called out in text.

While the general setup is goofy (thermonuclear warhead incase ISIS attacks, star citizen poo poo everywhere) those Icarus 270 screens are neat. I'd love one for DCS where you can actually fine-tune your field of view and take advantage of three screens without horrible image warping.

Well, this dude makes it scream nerd. Otherwise, it's just a tool. That said, I'm waiting to see what the VR experience is going to be like. Right now Rift support is pretty limited, which I guess is a given since the consumer version of it hasn't been released yet.

Has anyone here actually gone through with a chargeback yet? People recommend it over and over but I haven't seen anyone mention that they've done it yet (but I did stop reading for a few weeks). I feel like it needs to be done or at least threatened more often so CIG will have to do something instead of sitting on their asses with 4 week late emails before denying them and loving over people who want (and deserve) refunds.


This entire thing is an appalling loving scam. The problem is that people normally lash out at scams and shut them down once they're exposed as such, but the shitizens instead ask to be scammed even harder while furiously trying to silence anyone who points out what their dumbassery has wrought. The loving cultists are 100% responsible for enabling this.

No, when the CEO tried to play his own loving game on camera and literally didn't even know how it worked before it crashed and when he had to have someone come and log into the loving computer for him and when he mocked his own game's UI as if he had never seen it before, none of that was a sign that he's a hack. It was transparency and honesty. Everything is fine. Everything is fine. Everything is fine. Everything is fine. Everything is fine. Everything is fine. Everything is fine. Ev

Working through it. Can't say more than that.

As we suspected, there is no getting around the arbitration clause, due to many court rulings (the latest) which made it legal for corps to shaft their customers without the huge expense of lawsuits. So no class action. Anyone who has a beef with SC, has to go it alone, or as a non-class group.

We already had a long discussion about it a few pages back. Summary: It was all done in the CryEngine editor and there was a really strong difference between the noise map of the "procedural generation" and the custom work ripped off from Nyx. We weren't impressed.

Guys whole you're here, what's your take on CRoberts being unable to play the game, being visibly disgusted with it and only now seeing the chat interface?

For the hero visionary programmer that is involved in every aspect that is pretty weird.

It's almost as if he has nothing to do with SC and is busy directing his awful interactive movie.
