Derek demoted me from Smartie to Goon on the discord and I have never before felt such grief. B'tak, expect a PM from me asking how you deal with it. Sandi, if B'tak doesn't read these forums, could you send him a message? tia

Nicholas posted:Really? Cause all I've seen since November is tremendous progress. Over the last few months they've released the PU, a bunch more flyable ships, some hanger ready ships, and more patches then most triple AAA developers put together. Plus, their procedural generation stuff is almost done, they just need to integrate it. They have one of the most advanced flight models ever developed for a game and an AI simulation so complex it's never been attempted before. All in less than 1 year of "full" development time. Explain to me how start citizen is "ruined" Correct me if I am wrong, but there is no P in the PU, and with the number of locations currently it can't even really be described as a U either.

how do you do fellow commandos I am definitely not trying to steer conversation in asking; who is this pgabz character? I remember someone in this thread mentioning his videos once, but I never looked into them too closely myself. Lets discuss this at length. also, here is a negative statement about a CIG employee. Ben really has stepped in it with this latest gaffe, and his weight is truly ample. It makes me wonder if everything is going ok over at CIG. but the truth is probably somewhere in the middle. Anyway looking forward to hearing what you guys think about my post. I will post a "catte" soon, and perhaps display interest in a recipe?

Finally caught up with the thread, some disconnected thoughts: I don't like the idea of company's owning the private lives of their employees. Ben shouldn't be fired for what he wrote / did off company time. He should be fired for what he has done on company time. Star Citizen has a disturbingly large pro-Mature themes segment of it's community. (Mature themes are a clear sign of an immature game community, but I digress) This mature themes segment has repeatedly argued for Rape / Slavery mechanics in the game. As a fantasy space MMO, Star Citizen has no need for Rape / Slavery mechanics, they add no historical verisimilitude or gameplay worth having to the game. Their inclusion is at best insensitive minimization of those societal ills. A normal game community manager would recognize these mechanics add nothing but trouble, so that person would kill the threads and move conversation onward. Ben, from his own words, seems to agree with the Mature Themes crowd about the inclusion of these mechanics. So he allows the discussions to persist, even though they drag overall community downward as more and more of the Mature Themes crowd appears. This by itself is a problem, but it is supercharged when we have Ben's track record of ignoring abuse towards female members of the community. He allowed the Wuldge to continue posting, even after he sexually harassed other community members. He allowed the abuse and closure of the all-female group. He gave the founder of the pedophilia group a 7 day suspension. Ben treated the game community according to his own, questionable values, instead of something less arbitrary and more welcoming. We see this with the original Stimpire Fan Fic and with the Star Citizen Photo Contest. Star Citizen has attracted a band of aggressively socially awkward people who use Star Citizen as their own Safe Space. All of this is Ben's fault and for it, he should be fired. Though, after writing that, I realize that Ben did CIG good. What better group of fans than social outcasts who can buy their peer's respect by spending money on JPEGs? Next, the German Tax Issue is going to be a big one. CIG doesn't have the clout or reputation to allow it to break German tax laws. If CIG hasn't paid German taxes in years, this will be a massive issue. Derek hinted at CIG engaging in tax evasion in the UK, with the money CIG had possessed and CIG's method of financing, I can see strong potential for multinational tax fraud. I do wonder if CIG views Ben-Ghazi as preferable to discussing Germany tax evasion... Finally, the PC Invasion blog represents the penultimate state of the Game Media. For some time, I suspected that the game media downplayed CIG, so that CIG would get less money and the media wouldn't have to take a stance on it. Now PC Invasion and RPS are taking outright skeptical stances on CIG and CIG's deliverables. From here, the next step is writing articles about the slow and troubled development. This will be interesting to watch.
