What is it about this 'game' that doing fake service jobs for fake in game currency is considered fun and interesting compared to real life service jobs that make you real life money.

If you can hi-jack a ship and steal it, you either gently caress over someone with LTI by preventing them from using their LTI ship while it remains intact OR people with LTI can just distribute ships as they please if they can recover stolen ships, etc, etc.

This probably is addressed already I hope.

imo start another thread that everyone can bookmark and then only update that thread with good, new, significant info and keep it locked otherwise. wading through all this garbage is getting tedious, especially since it feels like we're so close but also we may not be close to anything at all....

You're a loving moron. Everyone in this thread knows that CIG is going to fail. You keep coming in here to tell us that we're wrong on things that don't matter (like Sandi's favorite number or that they're lower on money than 8Ace has been told) without any kind of evidence to back up your claims, and then tell us to wait.

You have no credibility. You're not even funny, and you run what little traction you get with your posts into the ground and then try to claim it was all part of your plan when it backfires.

So gently caress off back to your twitlonger and your July blog and your lovely game that nobody is ever going to buy unironically.

I mean the game would still be vaporware without Derek's involvement right? Someone somewhere along the way was going to continue to call them out and it would catch up to them at some point. The wool may have been kept over the eyes of more backers for longer but this poo poo-show would have been exposed sooner or later.

Not a spelling mistake on my part.

Star Citizen IS NEVER going to be finished.

That is quote. From Chris Roberts. About Star Citizen.

I am not exaggerating

He can say that one line without blinking or stuttering. He has the body language of making a confession while saying it. Immediately following that he says "Star Citizen will go on" and his eyes dart to the side and he starts stuttering and moving his hands again.
