Beet Wagon posted:lmao they still haven't even started making that thing. I mean I bought a Merchantman around the same time so I can't really talk poo poo, but drat. Yeah, another friend bought the Merchantman i think around the same time. The idea was I was going to sit and mine and he'd haul the cargo back to sell. Looking at the state the game is in right now... that's just never going to happen. Is there even a system to transfer cargo between ships in space?

everything is super normal and nothing shady is going on at all May 2020: $9,825,267 (current, 4~ days of funding left) to put that in perspective, this month isn't over and its already been better than:
if the funding continues, this will be the best month/event for funding in star citizen history during a pandemic, economic uncertainty, and several very problematic patches

I mean I guess you can probably pick up those little crates and manually EVA them over (I have no idea what that does to ownership) but there's no like bulk transfer of cargo or minerals. Ship-to-ship docking was most recently scheduled for Q4 2019 lol.

Beet Wagon posted:Or do you mean the Endeavor? The Endeavor was my favorite back when I actually would set foot in Spectrum. It was the ultimate dream machine, the backers could imagine it doing anything. Hospital ship, farming, R&D, drug manufacture, anything you could want it to do. Even a giant telescope for some reason. And in nearly every thread where the ship was mentioned, some Mengele-rear end creep would pop in and wonder if he'd be able to kidnap players, enslave them, and do experiments/organ harvesting on them. The inevitable consequence of science I guess. Last King posted:so some quick googling and i found this: "To put fun ahead of shareholder profits" (meaning our game won't result in either...)

Bootcha posted:I'll be honest. nailing exactly what i feel. on top of that we are way past 340 millions funded now, because we cant see what government benefits CIG has gotten or how much loan they will withdraw once poo poo starts going sour (if anyone is willing to give em a loan anymore). still if the money was fake, then i would be dialing the gains down soon, because all the money they are getting will raise the question of where it all went after it all ends.

quote:On a summer Saturday in 2007, a trespasser slipped by a security gate and entered Chris Roberts’ L.A. home. Inside, Madison Peterson, Roberts’ former common-law wife, with whom he had a long on-and-off relationship, was startled and feared her young daughter could be harmed or kidnapped. Peterson later identified the trespasser as Sandi Gardiner, who is now Roberts’ wife (for the second time) and a cofounder of Cloud Imperium. Roberts reported the incident to police, and a California judge issued a temporary restraining order that required Gardiner to stay 100 yards away from Peterson, who claimed in her temporary restraining order application that Gardiner had been stalking and threatening both her and her daughter for nearly three years. excuse me what the gently caress

Torquemada posted:Old news. Why do you think we call her the strangler? This is a flat out lie - you are just spreading FUD. She was just helping Chris to relax by giving him a soothing therapeutic neck massage (of which she has been the best at since she was a little girl) because she cares about him so very much. This spreading of these lies is truly sickering - I feel like I'm living in the Stimpire.
