Bad content should be discouraged, and people who endlessly spam bad content should get told to stop. Arf got repeat probations when he spammed the thread about doxxing. The guy that's spammed the thread with 15 pages of bad reddit screencaps should get the same. The guy who admitted to spamming shitizens on reddit should too.

 In the last 500 years, the Fourth Stimpire has dominated four systems, which it has united into one starzone, Stimsis. The Fourth Stimpire has origins from the Ten Empire War in which 10 of the United Stimpires revolted against each rules. All empires except for the fourth swore freedom upon their citizens. There is no free speech in the Fourth Stimpire, and all self-controlled transportation has been made illegal without undergoing painful medical verification methods, in which arteries are severed without pain resistant, operated entirely by machines. The way they work claim to be the most hygenic and healthy way possible, but these machines often rub against pain points, causing great deals of pain to patients. The heart is then extracted from the body and placed into a glass grinding machine. Various energy centers are also dissected and replaced with dangerous transplants. After the painful, 52 hour surgical procedure, patients will then have to use a fused guidance tool, which pumps painful resistors into the body every 2 hours. The pain they have caused is so bad, the victim would freeze in a tense position. They would then collapse afterwards. Sexual stimulation in any way within the grounds of the Fourth Stimpire is strictly prohibited, and anyone detected even touching their sexual organs will be subjected to a penectomy or if the offender was a female, they would then have a razor inserted into their ovaries. They would pump a blue solution into the womb until the stitchings burst. Offenders would also be forced to show their operated areas in public, and they would always harass and punch them to a pulp, against their will. Otherwise, offenders would be tazed with the worst type of electricity in the systematic district, causing so much pain, the victim would scream and flail in madness. The pain would also triple every second, but no death would be incurred. This is also used in combat against enemy units, which is why all UEE forces must wear the upgraded suit to block this effect. However, enertainment is also questionable in UEE grounds. Sporting events end with the losing team being rounded into a grinder and shredded on live television, boxing matches end with the loser having their hands removed without anasthesia, flight races would end with the losers having their arms and legs removed, then being injected with insanity, for entertainment. People are also forced into these events, by undergoing a painful 127 hour procedure which involves tweaking the muscles so they will not listen to brain commands, and then having a painful drug injected which also causes madness if the player is not sporting. This is all for entertainment, and anyone not watching any of it during sporting times and cheering for the winning team, they will be imprisoned into galactic camps. Snuff films are also broadcast, and actors are actually murdered just for entertainment. Stealth droids also guide these forced actors into behaving exactly as the director dreams, otherwise they will be punished by being placed into a macerator and having their execution written into the film. Any film that does not feature someone being murdered will be burned and the entire crew behind it will be executed in the most grotesque way possible - vivisection. All executions are broadcast, and anyone who misses even a millisecond, even by blinking, will be executed. All citizens must boo to the person being executed, and the family is gathered to be injected with eternators, which cause pain forever, making them immoral but feeling the pain tenfold every millisecond. They cannot pass out, but they will feel like it forever. Conquests by this Stimpire end in the planet being razed, and all the citizens being executed in the same way as their citizens are. The planet is then destroyed and all remnants of it are removed, and any memories of it will be erased instantly from civil minds. People who are also killed are also erased from memories, and all memories of them, including toys and pictures, are destroyed. Prisoners undergo 40,000 years of relentless and endless labor, and anyone not complying is sentenced to the eternator injection. All prisoners injected with eternators are placed into capsules and launched into far space, then the room is closed tight to ensure maximum insanity. Some prisoners are also subjected to the removal of blood, the lungs, the liver, the genitals, the skeleton, the muscles, the eyes, and even the injection of pressure. Prisoners sentenced to pressure chambers are locked in until they are inflated to a high level. The decompression is then stopped to make sure they are inflated and uncomfortable. Children born on the 14th of July are subjected to the removal of their skeleton and an implant of a silver liquid to replace it. The nervous sysem is also injected in various parts to ensure it is five times more sensitive than the average. Restaurants also are ordered to serve civil meat, and anyone attending must give themself up to be cooked into a grotesque meal. They are cooked alive, undergoing extreme pain, and are then subjected to industrial grinders and blenders. The Stimpire orders at least 1 million citizens to be dispatched every day, as they are afraid the population may overthrow them. But only one planet is cared for, and the rest are banned from eating, drinking, talking, using technology, touching anyone, wearing unauthorized clothes, touching buildings, or walking a centimeter out of designated routes. Civil enforcers are on every planet, and they are engineered so that they are 40 times larger than the 300 quadrillion population. At least 7 billion die every 12 hours under this rule. Thoughts are also surveyed, and anyone who does not think anything to loving the Stimpire with more than their capabilities will be sentenced to a prison. Prisoners who are punished for this violation will meet their greatest fear, only to have it amplified so they will turn insane as they imagine it exactly as they fear it. They then undergo a painful extraction of all fluids, to be replaced by a toxin which causes permanent irritation. The unknown substance keeps the subject aging normally, except they will never die. Prisoners punished in this way are unable to be reverted, despite many efforts, and they will never be able to be disposed. The sickening truths have been revealed only today, and invigilation teams are still investigating the truths without setting foot in the galactic space of this sickening empire.

I measure pissed citizens at somewhere around 10% or less. Reddit is not gonna bottom out this year, they'll have gamescom or whatever other carrot to put in front of themselves in a couple months. Though if December comes without even a rudimentary mining <USE> or tech demo, all bets are off.

AP posted:Citizens will flip their poo poo I think if they don't get something good this year. They've never going to get anything good so CIG's best bet is to go quiet while hoping people forget they gave thousands so some idiot could shop for furniture & play movie director with Golem, Luke Skywalker and the girl from the x-files. This is why I've been quietly reminding citizens 'How long are you going to wait for functional mining? Usually one of the first things you put in a space game.'

AP posted:Hey a new Citizen, what's your Star Citizen story? My story is Star Citizen sounded cool back in 2013 as I failed several times to enjoy EvE. Never pledged because the Kickstarter pitch sounded vague to me but thankfully CIG continues to deliver wonderful self-ownage free of charge. If I had pledged that artist dudes resignation letter would have been my refund point. Doorgate was also pretty bad, dunno which was first.

https://twitter.com/dsmart/status/835861811589234688 I take it these sales numbers are accurate as possible with CIG's farce of transparency. I've gotta think the Hurricane did not live up to CIGs sales hopes, the prospector sold like poo poo despite being the one of the 2 dedicated mining vehicles. But ok probably not a lot of players are interested in mining, a (what looks to be) overpowered starter ship should get the money flowing again right!? As things become more desperate, I imagine we may some insane concept jpegs. quote:The Hurricane is currently scheduled to become flight-ready later this year. Because it is a smaller spacecraft, which uses the existing Anvil design aesthetic and dogfighting mechanics already tested in the Star Citizen Alpha, we expect it to come online earlier in the pipeline.

MinorInconvenience posted:Do these sales numbers even mean anything anymore? A bit back in the thread it was mentioned (and seemingly confirmed) that employees can buy the jpeg packages at a discount (or maybe taking less pay in their paychecks), which they then go and sell on the grey market for a profit. It was also mentioned that Croberts & Co. report these sales at the full, not discounted price. If all of this is true, I suspect the $144 million is completely misleading (and possibly designed to keep backers from panicking). Or am I missing something? Yes it's all bullshit but they're paying 350+ employees somehow. I have no doubt they have somekind of outside investment, and they probably use ship sales to show new investors that they are stable and have cashflow. The only other explanation is that they spend very little on staff and are working from their warchest. Considering the janky quality of everything they put out, it's not completely impossible that the staff could be inexperienced budget hires.

I skimmed through this. "I have 4 AI programmers" "We're now building up a small gameplay team, so gameplay programmers" "We have a large push on design here" (systems and levels) "We have a large environment art team here" (9 people) lighting artist engine team tools programmer 65 people [x] years in and now they are now thinking about putting together a gameplay team; while it appears their focus remains on art. Unbelievable. I don't really follow the purpose of each office but it sounds like they are PU and a little bit of S42 stuff.

MinorInconvenience posted:But wait, I thought S42 was almost done? How can they not have already done this? How is it possible that backers don't understand how bad this is? I think when Chris got the dollar signs in his eyes he lost sight of the game and started chasing his movie dreams again. 20 mo-cap sessions later with a dwindling budget he decided maybe they should start making the game part soon. Except he built the whole company around ~ fidelity ~ and is now playing catchup with the game mechanics. It's 2017 and they are hoping to get some basic features like mining and cargo this year; those should have been done in the first months.
