What do you think the Citizens would do , if the big announcement tomorrow ended up being :

Chris hauling his gut on stage and telling everyone that SQ42 will be available on consoles as well as PC upon release ... in 2019

He will clap and look around , then Ben will appear behind him and slowly cut his throat with his pilgrims cross

Fade to black as the cackle of sandi reverberates throughout the room

That escalated rather quickly.

1. vignettes are finally shown for SQ42
2. star marine trailer with boot camp guy video, kinda corny
3. 2.6! amazing stuff that was shown last month
4. ptu announcement for 2.6
5. new features that are coming in 3.0, small demo

1. A new ship sale will be hinted at for the future (gotta keep them fish hooked)
2. 2.6 postponed and will be released by Christmas because of PR not actual progress
3. Sandi and/or Chris do something Cringe-worthy. (Bonus points if together)
4. Chris expands the game scope again with questions.
5. Derek will tweet throughout the charade and drop one-liners followed by *BREAKING NEWS* -- READ MY NEW BLOG

Did I cheat by using Derek?

1. Lots of delays while they try to get their build to compile.
2. Awkward dead air.
3. At least one quotable hot mic moment.
4. A look of wide-eyed terror.
5. No Ben.

Promised all the dreams while pretending to be at the same time a mature studio and a cheeky underdog. Never nailing any features allow the backers to project the "dream game" they have in their mind on the product. Turning shopping into act of faith for a majorly unspiritual, introvert population. Astroturf propaganda. Fake scarcity.

1. They will show a 'people of cig' movie , similar to what you would see after a horrific plane crash. Lots of fade cuts to the next person.

2. At least one of the shots will be Chris and or Sandi smiling and waving as they board a private jet

3. Ben is nowhere to be found

4. Sale sale sale

1. Sandi won't be on the live stream since she's still furious about her resting bitch face moment. However she will still appear in a pre taped and edited piece. (Narcissism runs strong in that one).
2. Chris won't be on the live stream since he will "still be busy in the UK". However, like Sandi, he will have a pre taped and edited segment to wish everyone well and to send him more money.
3. Derek will breathe heavy into his open mic as he watches the stream making it uncomfortable for the majority of his viewers.
4. This thread and Reddit thread will have diametrically opposed view points of what happened and what it represents. Neither viewpoint will be actually accurate.
5. The stream will not only start late but their please standby portion will also start late and will be glitchy ad for ship sales featuring drills sergeant (who will have a similar name and style to that guy in the tv and movie)

1, They're still a couple big blockers that are not ready for prime-time. There's some sort of new system in place that checks obstructions in real-time and relays that to the radar. However, this is a glitch that is bogging-down some clients. I don't expect a live release (or PTU) tomorrow.

My guess is that he's not starting a dialogue - he's getting his predictions out there, to the public, with timestamps, because when this collapses and all the poo poo floats to the surface, he'll have a huge archive of material that can be cross-referenced with the newly surfaced facts. They'll either match up with what he's been saying all along, or not. Either way it goes it'll be funny as poo poo, but for very different reasons.

Busted :vince:

Shitizens still don't get how my plan works; even though I tend to use my social media posts as cited links in my blogs and statements. It's uncanny to me that people can be so dumb as to ignore the obvious. Kinda like my Quora response to Star Citizen (over 1300 views to date) which has them in knots over on /r/ds because somehow they can't reconcile why I would even respond, let alone in the manner that I did. Because somehow, they are of the opinion that I want to turn people away from the project, watch it burn etc, this despite the fact that since it's pure and utter shite, my sole purpose is to have people try it for themselves, see that I'm right, then either run far away, or tell their friends to get a refund or run away. And those who do try and like it enough to spend money on it, will be part of the rage machine down the road when the collapse comes.

They're clueless.

TheAgent posted:

yea, most of them are on sa or have seen Derek's Twitter

I've turned down several requests to talk to gaming sites because gently caress me if I'm going to name names and ruin careers over klobbers $140m gently caress up

That's what some of these Shitizen clowns don't get. NONE of us are out to hurt anyone. I don't know about about other leakers, by my sole purpose, since day one, has always been about accountability. Which is why my target remains the project and those heading it. Like anyone is going to risk ruining someone's job and/or livelihood just to score points and lols against some inconsequential rear end-clowns on the Internet. At the end of the day, if CIG sees something that's false, the onus is on them to take the necessary action and prove it to be false. It really is that simple. It's not like they can't afford the legal bills.
