Well a introduction posted in the Rowdy Trout (after buying platinum, of course) is a necessary part of process in getting an invite to the private forums after all.

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:Can you go into this a bit more? I'm trying to understand what about the reveal, particularly the live demonstration, indicates they're not being honest. It's like when Bioshock Infinite was marketed with all those amazing movie like sequences which never appeared in game, like the scene where Elizabeth tries to resurrect a horse and it all goes wrong, and many others. Then they sold the game having won a bunch of awards for those movie like sequences, which never appeared in the game, because they were actual movies that were probably never intended to be playable. But at the very least that game wasn't funded and continuously running off of public money and goodwill.

Mad Catz, who were making(?) the Star Citizen Controller, are now probably going to go bankrupt and are laying off 2/3rds of the staff with the CEO resigning. http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/265502/Mad_Catz_lays_off_63_of_staff_in_restructuring_plan.php A sign of things to come?

I think it's just trying really really hard to be realistic without actually making it there, so it just looks really disjointed and weird. The "uncanny valley" I guess. Just a lot of wasted effort because the technology isn't there yet.

Could someone explain how Squadron 42 came to exist and be funded by backer money when the actual kickstarter project was about the "Persistent Universe" game in the first place? Did they announce it before they started selling jpegs, and how did backers react when it was revealed?

We just found out that Planetside 2 has client side hit boxes modifiable by editing a text file and has since release even after it was reported multiple times, but yeah I'm sure SC will solve all the problems of the MMO shooter also with spaceships with farms, an economy, mining, etc. etc.

The couple was unable to split the collection by themselves, so they spread it on the courtroom floor and divided it up under the judge’s supervision. Maple the Bear was the first to go.

Is there any viable legal reason whatsoever for those "OH BY THE WAY we didn't have to refund lol!" letters? If they were brought up in a court I somehow doubt they would be going anywhere but a trashbin.

WhiskeyWhiskers posted:Seems like it would be pretty reckless when you also have specific consumer guarantees in Australia that companies can't lie or misinform you about your consumer rights. Yeah I think the letters are more of a blatant (and bad) attempt to dissuade others from seeking the refunds they're owed if they so choose.

So looks like the refund policy is "Deny everything unless the guy actually looks like they know what they're talking about, then give a refund but still deny everything." Someone should send a request with the full list of legal jargon on the first mail and see if they still deny the first few times time anyways like you're trying to sign up for disability.

I'd feel sorry for the dude who has to sit there and come up with these bullshit reasons why they can't refund to string out the correspondance to make things more difficult (or they might lose their job if it looks like they're letting people get their money back too easily), but I heard Toast is an rear end in a top hat anyways, so

So if Squadron 42 is so close to release and that's what they've been spending all their effort on, why didn't they like... have people showing that off rather than their painfully unfinished tech demo

I agree that demo was so excellent I might just drop a large sum on the completionist package now. Several other goons have already done it too, but of course are too embarrassed to post about it outside of the plat forum: You must have the platinum account upgrade to see this link. This is a good thing. For Star Citizen!
