To Mr. Vargas's credit, I think he got a refund. Most Polaris and associated staff got refunds, IIRC.

I just came up with an awesome stretch goal: for $200 million, your character should be able to eat your own ships.

The best thing about all the YouTubers/Streamers backing the game early, is that a bunch of them (Jesse Cox, Totalbiscuit etc.) have expressed some public frustration at how the game keeps being delayed and isn't actually what they backed.

Eonwe posted:angryjoe is such a fucklord He's the epitome of "dumb schtick." The best was his absolute butthurt antics over Geoff Keighley dismissing him at some stupid game awards show when Joe was trying to be a journalist (which he now claims he's not). Also his bitching on Twitter is also really pedantic, especially when he used some image from GamerGate and it included the logo of some other YouTuber, who then used a DMCA to get the video taken down because the guy didn't want his name associated with GamerGate (because he was smart and just laughed at everyone) and Joe threw a temper tantrum because of it.

Hey Sandi, why don't you refund pgabz if you don't want him recording videos of him playing your tech demo? He sent you a refund request already, tough guy.

Matlock Birthmark posted:The private servers feature? Ya, that was a real promise. They'll rightly put it on the back burner until everyone forgets about it, then cancel it I'm sure. And the same people that had a fit when Elite eliminated the 'play offline' thing will probably be just fine with it being cut (and many other features as long as it isn't that one thing that they care about, like birds).

I wouldn't be typing in chat when making videos if I were you. I hope they 'find' me in game, I'm not hiding, I'll be stood side by side with Beer at launch laughing, but in reality I'll be banned before then I would have thought.

peter gabriel posted:Well that's cool then this is angryjoe basically he isn't really an 'rear end in a top hat' so much as he is just some random person with a youtube channel who gets paid by companies to shill their video games he basically almost certainly got paid to convince people on his channel to buy star citizen ships

I discussed with Ben about utilizing and leveraging the YouTube personalities as the middle-ground of SC news content. Top content of course came from CIG, and the low end came from users like you. Basically we would give these people "Press Accounts" that had everything unlocked so they could explore all the content that was created in the current builds. We'd also try to arrange, on a quarterly basis, for game-playing interviews with some staff as they were available. That idea or any alternative of it never happened.

Lowtax posted:Okay well there will obviously be a digestive system module, idiot. That's probably easy to do and somebody already created a plugin for the Crysis / StarEngine. You can probably download one from CNET. Then the only thing you need to do is make a couple changes to the ini file and bam, you're done. You obviously don't know the first thing about game design. Because you are an idiot. god drat it I'm stupid of course!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

peter gabriel posted:Well that's cool then I don't watch his poo poo so I don't know if he's in the crew of people who have said the game is bloated. He got mad about Geoff Keighley being in that bad Halo/Mountain Dew/Doritos promo thing, but will do it himself despite calling himself a journalist. Dude just cries about anything he can find since that's his gimmick which gets old after three minutes.

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:Not only is it a core promise from Kickstarter, but they emphasized the feature after Elite dropped it. Now the community manager just said they won't even think about it until after going live. And nobody is calling them out for it. You even have assholes saying they don't even want private servers.

Bootcha posted:I discussed with Ben about utilizing and leveraging the YouTube personalities as the middle-ground of SC news content. Top content of course came from CIG, and the low end came from users like you. It's not an abnormal thing. I got a press code to the Goon made Enemy Starfighter (which is great and you guys should go check it out) when I was doing press poo poo for a website. It's also not abnormal to opt not to use YouTubers/Streamers to promote your product since some of them are huge assholes about it. There was a few people I know who have similar size channels to my own (2-7k subs) and would demand they also get paid for the content rather than just a free key. These aren't big channels, they're nobodies in most terms. Personally I'd rather get the press account, see if I enjoy the game enough and can make content off it than demand a dev studio pay me.
