I mean, on a rational level it surprises me because it's so loving dumb, but with these people? Seems like par for the course with these idiots. Pictures of jpegs. They can't have the actual jpegs, they didn't

There should be a reverse disclosure act. Similar to how reviewers must disclose if they received gifts/payment from the company whose product they are reviewing except here they must disclose if they've given money to CIG prior to writing their article.

I know they plan to release it. They told me. And we can trust them. Because they say things.

It's not a scam because people are still willing to give them money. If it was a scam they'd stop.

All I know/remember about that game was a full page ad that looked pretty sweet, it was made by the peoples that made Wing Commander and the ad had a tagline boasting that it had over 20 man years of development.

I was 12 or something at the time but even then I remember that being a strange thing to boast about on an ad. Quoting myself because my posts are calculated to formulate a response.

Dante80 posted:Chris Roberts, in the game's manual, compares the game's long development time with the events in the 1991 documentary Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker's Apocalypse, a film account of what it took to get the 1979 film Apocalypse Now made. I need to see this manual.

Sometimes you gotta break a few laws and shatter long held preconceptions in order to push the envelope in gaming performance.

Supporting a game development studio is a lot like marriage. Until death (or EA) do us part.

If I am still a backer (via a Gift Certificate) who has never downloaded or played the game or agreed to any of the newer terms of service is there a route available to me to request the financials of the operation as specified in the original terms of service? Specifically I would like to know how much management is paying themselves and what the purpose of all the various related companies are. I'm assuming the answer is that I can ask but they will ignore it.

Maybe purchasing jpegs with gift certificates is quicker than using credit cards? Every second counts when they release those rare limited quantity jpegs.

Setting a refrigerator to display the Star Citizen website is a great way to promote the game to the masses. Any moment now those appliance store pledges will start rolling in.

Was Items 2.0 just replacing "USE" with a context specific verb? Also is anyone looking for a dedicated cargo loader?

Breetai posted:I know that it's absolutely small potatoes in the scheme of things, but the man's twitter pic disproportionately grinds my gears. What is it with nerds and their overwhelming desire to ensure that every picture of them is a shot of them mugging and pulling as wacky a face as possible? I mean, I guess it's just a level of self-loathing that stops them from attempting to appear genuinely pleasant because they feel that they can't, but I see it everywhere and it shits me. [/gitoffmylawnoldmanrant] We have AVGN to thank for that.
