Manley was what got me into Kerbal, hate to see him believing in this pile of poo poo.

Yeah, but aside from a few assets it all had to be scrapped. I think the Illfonic stuff was built to the wrong scale, because why have everything done in house when you can have 5 separate studios in 3 countries working independently with a bunch of outsourced contractors? What could go wrong?

He posts in this thread occasionally. He's diplomatically neutral but I think he recognizes that it's probably not going to happen as advertised. Based on what I've seen of his videos anyway.

I'm always a skeptic, it's my default state of being, but I'm not going to straight up attack a project and hope for it to fail that would just be unfair. Neither am I going to be a cheerleader praising 'innovative features' which only exist on some future roadmap. It was telling when they talked about planets and moons colliding and quickly followed up with 'don't tell Chris'.

It's always been clear that the game can't be everything to everyone - it's can't be a PVE RP paradise and a glorious PVP Thunderdome simultaneously.

So yep, I'm a goon, I'm a cynic and a skeptic and laughing when dumb stuff happens, but I'm not wishing for anything to fail because I'm also a nice guy. And I haven't posted a SC video since Christmas because there's been essentially no new content and half the comments on the last video were from Nazis who thought that having the FPS character be non white amounted to white genocide.

The story begins as you wake up in your wank-pod. You take the elevator up to the cafeteria for breakfast but something feels... off. You search for a seat but they're all taken and every time someone gets up another person instantly sits down. You try to talk to a man passing by but they don't respond, they just walk right past you and immediately begin to mop the already clean floor. As you stand in the corner eating your cereal you notice some strange occurrences; the milk in your cereal is behaving oddly, eating utensils seem to be vanishing, and you think you just saw someone walk through a door. You decide to head back to bed and get some more sleep. You enter the elevator and press the button. The elevator begins to move downward but you're standing still. You try to move but you can't as your head passes through the ceiling. Suddenly you're teleported a million miles away... alone... in space. Your limbs elongate and your feet and hands begin to spin clockwise. You scream but there's nobody around to hear you.

You're cool, man. I genuinely enjoy your stuff.

I know we get all cynical and mean in here but I really would like to play Star Citizen (as promised) myself. The heartbreaking and sickening truth is that we don't need to try and "tear down" or "attack" anything regarding SC, as Chris Roberts seems to gently caress everything up just fine on his own.

I think hiding behind most of the SC sceptics in here is a super space nerd that wants to desperately play something like Star Citizen. Some of us have backed for outrageous amounts in pursuit of that. Sadly, I don't think SC will reach many or most of its goals.

Hiding? Not at all, every single one of us wants to play Star Citizen, far more than anyone on Reddit does even, because that's the funniest possible outcome. We just don't see it happening.

It's yet another day in the wasteland.

In other other game news, the RB-04 is silly, and JTAC is stupid.

Oh, sure, let's not lase those nearby tracking radar installations that make the whole SAM battery work, and instead complain that you have no mark on an insignificant ammo truck hidden behind a hill so the SEAD aircraft have to bomb visually rather than lob something in from behind a hill. :argh: :doh:

Actually, in the wake of the news about the new investor in Frontier I think this would probably be the sweetest timing spot for CIG to acknowledge any existing investors. I am sure now is the time where backers could forgive CIG giving in to the evil investors/publishers. "It is working for Braben, surely Crobberts can also make it work for SC", etc.
