No, this is a different one. He just looks similar because he has a beard and is an idiot.

I watched his stream for about five minutes and there's constantly retarded noises and stupid graphical poo poo happening on the screen. It's like his target audience is 4 year olds with ADHD. I would have sent him :tenbux: to make it stop but luckily all I had to do was call him a twat and close the window.

Was the stream full of fart sound effects? If it wasn't, count yourself lucky. Far too many of the medium and lower tier SC streamers are completely obsessed with farts. I'm not even slightly exaggerating.

In his defense that's not uncommon for twitch

Most of the new streamers have a gimmick and try to stick to it

Be it pirate themed , or beard clan or other stupid poo poo

I mean they're entertainers at the end of the day so whatever brings in the views

I noticed many of the long time streamers I watch that have been successful for more than 2 or 3 years , have gone away from the super complicated streams mostly , and even face cams

Just gameplay and voice over. Simple

People on twitch should just have a woman badly faking an orgasm every time someone gives them money, like Chaturbate.

The aftermath is that it got bloated and stuck, and he ran to the emergency room and now all the doctors are laughing at him while also charging him tons of money.

It makes him feel at peace and like he belongs though, because CIG is also laughing at him while charging him tons of money.

It is in the World Video Game Hall of Fame at The Strong National Museum of Play in New York, alongside such games as Pac-Man, Doom, Space Invaders, The Sims and GTA3. Not bad company to be in, right? Pity Star Citizen will never join their side, and instead end up in this museum...
please be sure to like and subsume to my channel

That's good. Those games all deserve to be there. I actually did play Doom and I'm not even the best marketer in the world. :)

Star Citizen will be in lots of things though. As being infamous, scammy, dirty, and it will also turn Moleneuxs career around as he sees exactly how terrible what he does actually is to people as he experiences it through Star Citizen and Chris Roberts. He may decide he needs to actually make a good game again. :3:

It seems to be a lot of BS designed to curry favour with the Crobbers, on the slight pro that SC's fans are "happy".

"... compared to almost any other major developer, they are being incredibly open and honest about what's happening in their creative process"

:cawg:

Chris, you like bombers, we get it.

Let me be brief


And furthermore...


It also has to be said that


Ok i tried to read this. (Good layout by the way) But i've got a little lost at the second quote. So let me write a bit


TL;DR: I bought a $750 piece of crap and now I am feeling kind of guilty about it. Wouldn't it be great if it was just like *I* want it to be?


645 comments, with around fifty essays. All discussing the pros and cons about a ship that not only does not exist, but it won't be out when the game is finally release (best estimate they have: mid 2018) because it is not a priority.

These people do need a game to consume their lives.


:lol: if you read all that crap.

This is nice. :allears:

Have faith though, by the time it gets closer to being in the hangar it will be a single seat fighter. This is basically the only gameplay CIG might be able to pull off.

After all it's just a concept right now. Everything is subject to change.

Oh also don't forget the next concept two or three concept sales from now where they make the Fuckoff 5000, which is like everything you thought the Polaris should be. No you can't melt for it. New money only bro. Don't stop the addiction now! :monocle:
