Well, in his defence, it is still only playable for short times, on a LAN with a dedicated server, and no more than a handful of players. So, yea, I guess you could call that "existence".)

I'm 29. I totally spent way too much money on dumb video game poo poo, but my crushing regrets are to the tune of hundreds that I would LOVE to have back right now since I'm flat loving broke and I've lost my job.

Hearing someone throw away $6K when they're a teenager like it's nothing is just painful.

His original Tweet was that it wouldn't appear.

Also the Prowler is hilarious. They stole the ground effect domes from The Matrix. Plus it's hundreds of dollars for a specialized ship filling a role that CIG never promised gameplay for.

Looks cobbled together from generic code specifically to distract shitizens and react to Derek. If that's more than a few months old work I'm an iguana. I'd love to know what the engine is, it doesn't look Crytek to me.

Can't speak for Derek but I for one think they did a hell of a job mashing together default CryEngine animations and the janky physics and gunplay already on display in the PU in the couple months it's been since CitCon.


Because if you think that Star Marine footage was anything other than some slapped-together poo poo they did in a full-on panic after CitCon sucked, just lol

Seeing as that was neither a teenager, a girl, or even probably a Norwegian, there was probably not $6000 either.

It's supposed to mean you're not a racist/bigot and therefore people from marginalized groups are "safe" with you.

It is the single dumbest and most egregious piece of nonsense I have seen in a long time, and the idea that anyone fleeing harassment or persecution would be "safe" with Sandi, who would bite her twin sister's head off if it got her a six-line part on a basic cable soap opera, is completely ridiculous.

It's apparently a symbol of solidarity with all the people who are are probably super worried about what Trump is going to do them because they're gay/trans/ethnic. A sort of quiet way of letting these people know it's okay, you're one of the good people. I guess?

Thing is, before that it was how you let people know you were a gay dude up for safe sex (along with handkerchief related symbols that defined a lot more stuff). Left side for a top looking for safe sex, right side for a bottom looking for safe sex. I think it was mostly hooked to the pants instead of the shirt though.

Now over the years I've been watching as you grew, I've fought off people who have called Star Citizen a "con job so Chris can gently caress off to his private island", I've defended SC when people say it will never reach any of it's scope goals, I mean when MultiCrew came out that was SUCH a relief because there were so many friends and strangers I made a point of linking that video to

....

Let's fast forward to tonight. I knew the stream was coming, I was waiting for what ships would be listed last night, so when I got the email today that the stream had begun I jumped over to the store and saw the Idris-P was for sale, $1,300 and only 104 left (I mean, I was pretty quick on getting there all things considered with your super slowed down site). I naturally had a full on anxiety attack, opened myhanger in a second tab and melted everything I could as fast as possible all while in the other tab racing towards Check Out, only to get the $1,300 in store credit and having the check out page say "cannot use store credits with warbond someshit".

Now, I'm pretty loving drunk right now because I'm not much of a drinker and I just finished off my 5th of Jack, so please pardon me when I say this;

You are absolute ASSHOLES, for doing this two months in a row now with the capital ship sales. You purposefully create a sense of urgency with these mother loving sales, know FULL well people will melt everything they have to grab them (Polaris/Idris/Jav), and then say "Oooooooooops! No can use store credits, we want your REAL money!" which leaves a player in a sense of panic, do they use real money to get that ship they really wanted, or do they sit there with their worthless money they have previously invested in your game knowing they just melted poo poo they can't even loving buy back with the credits you gave them, because "YOU WANT THIS PLEDGE BACK? YOU GIVE US MORE REAL MONIES!?!?"
I'm a mix between heart broken and loving furious. I don't know whether to care enough to try to get an Idris when the "200" of them go on sale for store credits Sunday, or just loving stop watching Star Citizen entirely because I just melted everything I own including a Hull numbered Polaris trying to get an Idris finally after 3 years.

....

If you're CIG, Stop being assholes. Some of us gave everything we could give a long time ago when you really needed it, and now you're treating us like just another bitch. I believed in Star Citizen so much that I sold things that were extremely sentimental to invest in this game because I REALLY REALLY wanted to see it made. Stop stabbing my loving heart, plz....
