D_Smart posted:Yes. I called that one (staged demos) awhile back too. Out of curiosity, has Croberts responded to your new blog yet? Also, thank you for all the work your doing. Your doing a drat good job helping people to realize how bad of a scam the whole thing actually is. You saved a couple of my friends a few hundred each (after refunds). If it werent for the threads here on SA, i may have JPEGed myself as well. Thankfully it never came to that. I remain, to this day, JPEG free.

D_Smart posted:Remember when I broke the news that Sandi was shooting pet movie projects on RSI equipment, paid for with RSI cash? Think bigger. I hope you recover legal bills out of all this, Dr. Smart. Holy poo poo. This dumb, mushmouth motherfucker is a minor hollywood producer and the only tail he can get a ring on is his loving intern at this low level production company he's a partner in. A hollywood 4, who apparently has emotional problems. After loving up his movie career, he lucks into a hundred million dollars and uses spacegame dreams and dollars to try to set up a motion capture business and also jumpstart his crazy, not that hot, not that talented over 40 year old wanna be actress's career? This guy has broken his brain on cocaine. He probably did it in 2006, when he hosed up his movie career. If this is an LA based mo cap studio that is going to make movie quality performances, I'm thinking it'll take a lot more than the $20 million I've seen thrown around for it. I'm thinking all the companies were used as a way to move assets around to get loans and then spend that on the LA movie operation. I think the judge will pretty early see that the finances are weird and predispose them to be critical of the project management. This is the time actual auditors come into play. An independent forensic accounting team will be called for. Dr Smart is offering to pay. The banks hoodwinked into lending to these many different companies will be paying attention to this and demand access to the books. Dealing with angry creditors will do them in. A bank can call a loan in. All the banks can call their loans in. Credit crunch, mass layoffs, and Chris Roberts is going to jail. Or suicide.

I would pay good money to have a six bottles of that on hand for the day this finally implodes. I have a couple of friends who are going to need some-- and the higher the ABV, the better. (I'm 100% serious- and would pledge decent money to that endeavor if you could find it in your heart to concoct it.)

I imagine it looks something like this: http://steamcharts.com/app/37000 I played it before the easy patch. That game was loving brutal. Sushi in Yiddish posted:I love that this is all the Mark Kern "we're building a state of the art studio to produce Firefall related videos and rent out our studio" fiasco with a bunch of extra zeroes added on. Like, if you can't see how a crowdfunded studio went to get 4 mocap studios in the course of two loving years for a game where you will primarily be sitting in your space ship, I don't know if there is any loving hope for you. Also you like 10 hours of cutscenes, which beats out Hideo Kojima's longest game by two hours. poo poo just keeps getting worse and worse, and if you are too loving stupid to see what is going on I have absolutely no sympathy for you. At this point if you know all this and are still in it for any amount of money, you pretty much deserve what you get.

Ever since CitizenCon ended, either Ben or Jared have been consistently trying to downplay peoples expectations for the game instead of irresponsibly inflating them. They would always have to downplay certain things like release dates, the cutlass, etc. but now it seems like a more generalized tempering. It really does feel like we are approaching the end game.
