I said come in! posted:lol this isn't going to happen. Nothing major is going to happen with Star Citizen and the people against it, lets be honest here. The game will live or die entirely on its own. Probably die. Probably true, but I have to say I'm pulling for Uncle Derek to surprise us here.

joats posted:Yes, i think it's just the employees taking advantage of knowing that their boss has 43 million in paycheck money to hand out. They are just doing business till something else comes along that can be a bit more long term because this project is reaching the halfway/end mark. Where's that $43 million figure coming from? Granted, I've been away from the thread since last Friday so I may have missed something.

Also "investment" "Investment" is the chosen terminology of the True Believers, at least until you point out that it's lovely investment scheme. Then it's on to "support" and hand waving down extraordinary amounts of money as "don't care, I can afford to lose that!". Then they will swear up and down that they never thought of it as an investment.

D_Smart posted:It's a license to do comics based on the IP. There are five comics in the series. We have done three thus far, and two due out next year. XBone? No PS4 release? I might actually pick it up to support Uncle Derek if it was PS4. My questionable purchasing decisions have to be limited, so no XBone for me.

AP posted:poo poo or get off the pot. It took someone as scammy and scummy as Chris loving Roberts and Star Citizen and its community to make Derek Smart into the hero he always saw himself to be. I don't think I've seen anything like it before. Besides Jonestown, Heavens Gate, and The Branch Davidians, and those weren't a constant source of hilarity.

We were having the same discussions with legal some time in Aug about the chances of a class action being shut down and shoved to arbitration and whether or not it was even worth wasting time on a class action suit. The FBI is involved? So the Swedish Meatball Mafia angle might have some legs?

He's a smug piece of poo poo, in my opinion. He sees nothing wrong with this project, refuses to listen to reason, and likely loves his weight because "there's so much to love". He is the perfect personification of this project.

Kakarot posted:gently caress....I gave Derek $500 worth of ships to crash the market too and now hes disappeared without a trace. What did he do with all that other money we gave him to make the lawsuit happen? Last I heard the total was posted in You need a Platinum Upgrade to view this link. It appears so. Likely, he was going to deliver then legal wanted to have another review and put some revisions in. This probably was too much for Derek, and now he's run off with our jpeg's of ships. I can't believe I was taken in by this scam!

It was a well written article, but nothing new or earth shattering, nor anything that will bring the grey market to its knees. I'm marginally disappointed, but at least it's a real blog that exists.

A hallmark trait that a lot of people have when statements hit a little too close to home in their truth. And Sandi doing that read in their offices with Mantell is just priceless. They really are just throwing the Star Citizen ruse out the window now and going full on "We are a movie studio!!".
