Just checked Derek's article. BTW, the guy legitimately complaining yesterday, see below, seemingly got kicked out by his org shortly after for being a filthy infidel. e: tax

They really hosed up. They should have made the ships more expensive. Whales would have bought every ship left in stock (lol, stock) to be on the safe side for the next price hike. And feel like it's an investment. Prices go up (gotta adjust for all that new great content) and in the future EVERYONE ON THE PLANET will want a ship when the game is coming out! Instead they try to.....what? Get in new players because a ship is only 2.5 times the price of a real, right now playable AAA-game instead of 3 times?

Mr. Carlisle posted:At this point it's obvious that Roberts isn't selling a game anymore so much as he's selling time. He's making GBS threads himself knowing that like Derek said the game as pitched will never be possible and he's built on impossibly broken code that is going to take years to get working even a tenth of what he originally pitched. He's selling time for himself with all the refactoring and introducing new ships and randomly breaking down new employees with vague statements saying things need fixed. He's hosed and working on a way to get out of it with the least amount of damage to his own ego. The game has probably been second to ego preservation for quite some time now. That. Plus the fact that he is well aware by now that i) he's never going to be able to deliver the game promised ii) the money well is drying up iii) he's going to be torn apart - literally - once this shitshow collapses And when that happens, people aren't going to be referring to the Microsoft fiasco anymore because they now have something much bigger and which eclipses that: The Star Citizen Fiasco

History Comes Inside! posted:What is "Concern" when RSI forums refer to moving something there. I guess its a particular subforum but what is it? A subforum just for posts that are negative about the game? Why do they call it Concern? Another brilliant idea executed by Ben. At one point, they were a bit troubled that all the threads identifying issues like the current one could be easilly seen in the various top level forums. So they created a deeply buried subforum - Concern - and said it was so they could identify and respond easier to backer concerns. It was obviously a dumping ground for embarrassing topics which CIG didn't want potential new backers to see, and almost immediately became exactly that. If something is sent to the Concern forum, it's pretty well dropped into the trash bin.

TheLightPurges posted:Ironically I think the biggest "blocker" to a mass revolt is Us. They desperately want to have the opposite opinion as naysaying goons and DS ilk they'll eat a whole bunch more poo poo than they normally would just to spite us. Because if they didn't then we'd be right. If that's the cost of this thread's entertainment, us keeping the whole scam going a bit longer, letting people like Lazrin hand over more cash for things like a $750 Polaris, I'm ok with it.

A Neurotic Jew posted:I believe in the idea that 2.6 will be out by the end of the year, it's plausible to me that they closed down the discord to allow for evocati chat. I don't believe they will do it. There's a difference between "it works, but has bugs" and "it's pure and utter shite". Sources say - without reservation - it's currently the latter and that they'd need a miracle (or cut stuff out) in order to release this by year end.
