So: My BDSSE story: 1. Heard about SC, had a look, it was pre Arena Commander at this point, and they had a really janky tech demo in wirefram of AC going on. I thought "Nah" 2. Then I came back to it a little later and thought OooO! Shiny! (I'm a sucker like that) 3. I did some research (not enough in hindsight) and got a Cutlass 4. This was (again in hindsight) a good thing 5. Because they treated the Cutlass owners like poo poo, that should have given me a clue... but sadly at this point my spergbrain took over and I started spending money on jpegs 6. Then Dereck hapened and through finding out who Derek was I discovered SA and started to lurk here because... drat! It's funny here! 7. Then denial kicked in... I got another (expensive) jpeg. This one however was grey market. 8. Got another clue that CIG were clowns - made a (very mildly) critical post about when drunk one night and the next morning some anon mod had just deleted it. This happened to me twice. 9. Was lurking here a lot by now, and thinking about getting out... then... 10. Pgabz cat hypnotized me with it's rhythmic dancing and I decided enough was enough and that 9. What goons & Dereck were saying was in all probability the truth 10. Demanded a refund (I work self employed in the building industry and had a bad hit from a client (didn't pay for work done) so I could legit plead poverty to CS 11. Got jerked about for a while by CS. They asked if any websites or people made me want out 12. I said it was the Chris rant to the escapist that scared me 13. They actioned the refund from, like, 4 different sources leaving me $280 down on the grey market ship 14. Learned a valuable lesson about not being a gullible idiot in future and counted my blessings that I got most of my hard earned out 15. Unexpectedly the client then paid me leaving me paypal rich so I 16. Got MGS5, Fallout 4, witcher 3, Rise of the tomb raider, and several other games cheap on steam instead of the BDSSE TL/DR got in got out thanks Goons and Dereck Galarox fucked around with this message at 00:55 on Feb 11, 2016 |

Furious Mittens posted:The days of Starfleet Dental were some of the best in my gaming history. Hell, we didn't even have to be doing anything and it was a riot. Chasing people around to the heavy roleplay areas in obscure planets and stations, just to dance around them and act the fool, ruining their "immersion" and subsequently throwing a tantrum. Catching people RP'ing in a gently caress cabana on some desert oasis planet. Yeah, those were some of the best times I've ever had in a video game, too. Just throw out a disco ball and spray some balloons around and people would flip their poo poo. Smoke bombs were also cool since you could use them in noncombat areas. Really, all we had to do most of the time was stand around Drozana Station, though.

Tijuana Bibliophile posted:Ehh I haven't seen anyone in CIG actually making GBS threads on Illfonic as such. It's just the deduction Citizens make when they realize the alternative would be CIG screwing up. If you consider the timing of all this, early 2015, the timeline powerpoint by Chris Roberts with all this wonderful stuff happening in 2015. Star Marine in a few weeks, the social module, 2.0 in summer, SQ42 in 2015. Then it doesn't happen, Travis Day gets sent to Illfonic for weeks to try and sort it. Resources are diverted from other studios to try and help... June/July Alex Mayberry leaves, it becomes obvious Star Marine is too broken to fix but they decide to lie about it, Travis Day leaves, his wife who was worshiped by the whales leaves, Illfonic gets binned. People start leaking to Derek, CIG has two months of ~1 million income way below even an incredibly generous estimated burn rate, the media had already picked up Star Marine was delayed "indefinitely", CIG lie about it then but Derek Smart flat out said it was unfixable, CIG must have been making GBS threads themselves. They were months away from going under if funding didn't improve. You can understand why they overreacted in the worst possible way to Derek getting involved, you can understand it but it doesn't change the fact that the top brass all appear to be really dumb and the experienced people who'd actually shipped games were rushing towards the exit. Then they continue to overreact to the leaks and most of the community team gets fired or walks. Escapist, comedy, 8 hour letters, legal threats, the end times but funding picks up, Citizen's spending more to annoy Derek Smart who is a very bad man. Around this time they must have switched focus to 2.0, Star Marine gets binned, social module is buggies that worked in the hangar and dance moves, it's just a larger hangar really. All hands to the pumps for 2.0 if we don't get this out for Citizen Con we are hosed. Citizen Con, the crying event with terrible SQ42 movie stuff, a dropped script and a spitcake because 2.0 isn't really. November sale they almost get it shipped in time, 2.0 is on PTU and crashes every 5 minutes, it's not released as such but everyone is amazed they actually did something, they break 100 million. Eonwe gets concerned we are going to get sucked back in and spent a combined £2,500. 2.0 is released in December, they celebrate with another sale. making GBS threads on Illfonic now wouldn't make any sense it would just increase the leaks and Illfonic know exactly what happened to Star Marine, the thing Chris Roberts is still annoyed about a year later, the thing he just told backers they aren't getting and moved into the CIG magic never never land of "Soon".

In the week it took for the game to get from amazon to his house the guild imploded. When he logged in next, he and I were the only guys still playing and the 50+ goon guild he was expecting to be there had been erased like an executed stimpirian.

I really want answers about Full Burn clearly, it was made for Star Citizen. They claim it was something that ended up on a server accidentally, but no history of the song seems to exist I really want to hear Chris Roberts answer for Full Burn.

Madcosby posted:I really want answers about Full Burn Chris gets really annoyed when people ask him about Full Burn, "Where is Full Burn", etc. - Full Burn was basically just a music mode. It would let you listen to sounds, and hear them, well listening is in, and hearing is in, so you basically have Full Burn right now.

A Neurotic Jew posted:a new hot take from INN. This is fairly indicative of how they have nothing good to talk about and if I were them I'd just start winding their poo poo-show up and look for something else to do. What is there to talk about that doesn't highlight CIG's failure to produce anything? They don't even have enough scraps to assemble into a proper sycophantic and relevant article. They had the temerity to tell someone else they didn't think their article was particularly worth writing about, and then go and completely gently caress up the basics of article writing to put out fantastical fellatio instead. I mean I was willing to give them the benefit of the doubt regarding the whole "no really we are journalists!" tripe cause the bar is so low on defining yourself as one these days, but they've managed to flunk the fundamentals so hard I'm going to rescind that charity.
