Derek. Honest question.

When you walk into your lawyer's offices and say "I've been on the internet recently", do their mouths extend past their face in a shark like grin, or do they shake their head and ask you whose father they need to talk to.

It's kinda amazing in all these gifs that are getting posted the game somehow runs worst and buggier than stock crysis. How does that happen? I don't know a lot about coding do they have to rip out working systems to make it a space ship game?

You buy an icecream van to convert into a taco truck. It comes with a freezer to keep things cool, but you also need to heat things up so you install a microwave.

Chris Roberts decides he needs hotdogs, so now you also need a steamer. Then he decides your tacos need to be fresh so you also need a deep fryer, and you need a stove to do the mince as you can no longer do pre-prep at the beginning of the day.

Now it's very difficult to move around in your icecream taco hotdog truck and you forgot to install a fridge so all your ingredients have to be defrosted and taste like poo poo.

I like this metaphor but what the gently caress kind of taco truck are you going to that they'd use a microwave for anything?!?! please seek out better taco options tia

There's no other options because I'm already four figures deep in Taco Citizen.

Have you even seen their proposed menu??

I was listening to the radio in my automobile device and they said processed meat can lead to cancer. They specifically listed hot dogs and bacon, but didn't talk about burgs/ground beef.

Does an intake of burgs lead to an increased risk of cancer?

I must know. Help me citizens.

This is like worrying if breathing causes cancer.

Even if it did you couldn't live without it anyway.

Also, the Line Of Defense Tactics game which takes it's underlying story line from one of the comics, just passed final XBox One certification and goes on sale in early December. You bastards better buy it. I have to keep paying for avatars here goddamnit!!

If you want this thread to pay attention to your game then you're going to need a kickstarter campaign and a release date in ~~2018~~ ~~2020~~ 2025.

Plausible theories:
a) imgur's deletion system has some sort of algorithm that compares reports to views and probably upvotes, so N delete votes won't kill every image.

b) It's not a 100% automated system.

c) It actually stopped a while ago once the news got to the top of r/starcitizen, and the last few deletions are still propagating through imgur's cache system. That would explain why some old stuff is still getting hit but new images on the last 10 pages seem safe.

If The Wuldge shows up later with "inside info" that it was all Derek Smart's doing, we'll know it was (c).

I think my favourite part is that reddit is convinced it's all a Derek Smart Joint simply because the OP has an image of him saying he's coming for their jpeg spaceships and they don't understand that "jpeg" is being used in this thread as a derogatory term for imaginary spaceships in the imaginary game Shart Citizen, rather than literally their uploaded images.

holy poo poo its pretty fitting that every time derek wants to gently caress with some rando redditor theres a legit handicap they have and people ask him to stop

im seeing a pattern here

If they weren't legitimately handicapped then they wouldn't be Star Citizens in the first place now, would they?

Speaking of handicaps: every single goon in this thread that is quoting Derek Smart and saying "don't dox him bro" but not editing his post to omit the details. gbtr

You literally have a Derek Smart avatar. You're a cheerleader for an incredibly stupid obsessive who doxes wheelchair bound vid game fans because he has nothing better to do. You probably spend several hours a week in this lovely thread.

It's incredible how easy it is to reduce the big hard internet men of Star Citizen crew into puddles of tears when you suggest that maybe stalking a wheelchair bound cripple isn't a cool and badass thing to do. Perhaps the tightneing you feel in your chest when confronted with your own shortcomings should be harnessed for personal growth, rather than going into a panic and posting the loving get out frog 12 times in a row.

It's not like if anything "did happen" that star citizens would blame Something Awful. A comedy forum.

Yeah but Required Parachute's point is that it's so badly cobbled together that it's not a case of if anything did happen it's a case of how soon until it happens - which is a terrible, incomprehensibly large, loving risk when you're with a host that will literally just debit the massive fees people can run up by compromising your cloud site and churning up on-demand resources.

Molyneux is a classic example.
His first game Entrepreneur was him putting his know-how as a failed software businessman into a game and that failing so hard that it only sold two copies.
After forming Bullfrog his big hit Populus was a happy accident.

Please tell the more correct and funnier version of that story, wherein he gave up on game design after his first game Entrepreneur failed so hard that it only sold two copies, then set up a company exporting baked beans to the Middle East - only returning after becoming a successful software businessman following Commodore mistaking his baked bean company for a software databasing one of vaguely similar name and asking him to code a database system for the Amiga.
