EDIT - loving LOL. They've animated the FPS view to look like the player's walking over to him, and superimposed some 'Dialogue' select options over the top of it.

Wow - a "cinematic" but no loving game. I'm not sure I can handle this unforeseen turn of events.

It wasn't an ELE that wiped out the backer funds. It was Tristan Timothy Taylor.

My guess? Nothing. With lawyers breathing down their necks they're going to forget that Squadron 42 even existed and instead focus exclusively on Star Citizen. Oh wait, they're loving incompetent.

They'll sell Squadron 42: Episode 2 and Episode 3. Everyone already gets Episode 1, most early backers got Episode 2, and nobody got Episode 3. So now would be a perfect time to offer the entire trilogy, complete with a special "Meritorious Conduct" package for anyone who buys the trilogy so that they can have a bit of a leg up when their character transitions from SQ42 to the main Star Citizen game. That or they can sell the F8 Lightning for some exorbitant price.

They will attach a "SQ42 Backer Only" PU ship for pre-order of all of the episodes. It of course will be in the $1000's. Whales will go into a frenzy.

3.821 Million is my guess.

nah I'm sure they'll show the first mission you fly with him afterwards as well as a smash cut from the shubin level, because sandi would have a fit if she's not in the goddamn reveal trailer

So CIG put a conversation "tree" (which appears to be an opportunity to play the tutorial) over the unskippable non-gameplay cinematic, and this guy sees it and says "NO IT'S THE INNER THOUGHT SYSTEM".

"Inner Thought" system. Amazing how CIG manages to give a proper name to every mechanic they "develop" (otherwise known as stealing and then renaming to cover your tracks.)

Tip for CIG: you don't have to steal every gameplay element, rename it, then deny knowing about it and claiming you invented it. Especially since everything you reinvent has been broken poo poo. There's no shame in just using what the real game developers are using. You might even squeak out something resembling a smartphone app one day.

Mirificus, can you please stop spam posting the poo poo these horrible people say on Twitter? I mean jesus loving christ, we get it. They're awful human beings, and their deluded world-view is hard to fathom. But this thread looks every bit as bad as r/ds when you do that poo poo. It's not funny, it's not worth a good god drat to anybody except maybe derek, and honestly dude, after a while it's just kind of depressing. Like, not just them, but your cringey loving obsession with them. That's depressing too.

Chris, you motherfucker, nobody cares what you named your stupid loving JPEGs. You did not create an IP, you did not craft a universe, you did not create "lore"; you're a giant loving autist with no vision. "That's your ship." That's the correct loving line. "Your ship."

Great way to make everyone want to play in your universe. I get to deal with a self important rear end in a top hat who talks down to everyone? Sign me the gently caress up.
