so here's a spontaneous followup: I played this game pretty thoroughly, inside and out, for the better part of a month....
And yet, you don't seem to have time to do YOUR ONE JOB. We need our review of Cuck, sir.

That ship duplication thing has been going on for over a year. I can find reddit threads going back that far on a simple search. And do you have 23 dollah to spare for your next space vehicle?

Actually the Reddit thread on the Dev who proudly announced it is worth a look, as there is some quality Snark there as they step around calling it a useless piece of junk. https://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizen/comments/lslkvl/new_vehicle_coming_to_pledge_store/User avatar

Personally not a fan of the frontal struts. Completely blocks passenger forward and rear view. That said, I do like the minimalist design that maximizes on cargo space. I believe this cart likely pushes above its weight class.

While the struts may be of an annoyance to the pilot, the main deck of the vehicle provides an unencumbered view of the surrounding vistas.

Too bad it seems like a glass canon.
I heard the new SDF shield tech can be applied to things other than ships. Maybe it’ll be like a bicycle dynamo where the trolly shields get charged as long as your pushing it fast.

Have to balance defense with having a heart attack. Very emergent gameplay

$22 for a fucking space cart?
I spend weeks debating whether I should buy an entire game for less.
Anyway, I guess someone liked Death Stranding?

That is one of the most absurd sentences I have ever read.

I’m pretty sure that’s a parody of actual ship “reviews”.

You don't get to make 'jokes' about rinsing your fanbase for useless shit that they are never going to use when your entire business model is rinsing your fanbase for useless shit that they are never going to use.

It's the last line on Sir Ts image above. That you have to do a character reset to fix ship duplication issues. Which implies the existence of a dupe.
Also none of you need details, who gives a shit, there's no game it's just a con.
My ships duplicated like crazy. One ship that I rented during the "rent and try anything for free" event lasted in my inventory for months as a duplicate permanent ownership. Could edit it and everything

They were just trying to trick you--they were going to come by and charge you US dollars for the months of your "unauthorized rental".

350 MEEEELION DOLLAHS in funding passed. Whatever else you can say about Chris Roberts, e.g. that he is a dogshit Project lead, he really knows how to make people open their wallets. *edit* That's an average pledge of $115.25

2020, which was their tenth year of failing to deliver a spaceship game, was their best funding year yet.

Seriously? Musk has at least contributed to actual innovative space technology, built actual space vehicles and they've been used for actual missions.
Roberts is a grifter.

musk is also a grifter but he also did those other things
or at least employed people who did the other things

Yeah dude, at some point you gotta be pragmatic about stuff. Most people are horrible, the best we can hope for is that they do something to better society, technology, or something. I call it the Clinton Blowjob Rule (all politicians should have easy access to legal prostitution imo, it's such a lazy 'scandal' compared to, you know, the last 4 years of actual damaging horseshit) Anyway. Maybe Chris needs a blowjob.

Perhaps players' vain hope of funding it to completion, to play it in lockdown. P.S. I initially mistyped players as payers.

A grifter who knows how hard it is for people to accept sunk costs is a successful grifter. "Just one more installment! We're almost there!"

Obviously not a Bostonian, but on behalf of Boston, he can get fucked.

Sounds promising. Website is a bit bugged though :P
I open the site in Opera, and I get a countdown with an "enter access code" message. I am, however, unable to actually click on the text-entry field and enter the code. I open the site in IE 8 (oh, hush) and I never see the countdown, but instead skip directly to a welcome letter and an enlist button :P

This is like waiting for your investments in the Iraqi Dinar and Vienamese Dong to make you rich, but just in case you also bought Zimbabwean Dollars to cover yourself.

That is fucking crazy. Even if this game suddenly came out and was technically perfect, it would be out-of-date and uninteresting.

Incredible this has continued for so long. I wonder how the employees who have been there from the start think and feel about the tripe they have been on.

i bet they are thrilled about having employment for another 5 years since there is no immediate risk of being kicked out when the game releases.
