Same old same old ...
90 days .... TOPS !
Have fun
Also why do white knights keep on going about the 90days bullshit Smart said but froth at the mouth when people mention Chris Roberts' "two weeks" quote.
..Cake..
He's spouted so much shit.
It tells a lot about the project that people cling on the garbage he's said to actually give the project some credibility... "see? CIG is still here after 90 days!!111"
..Cake..
The SC haters are unique, this is the only game forum on this site someone will post a thread when someone on the internet says something negative about the game. lol
If they didnt raise another dime from today I doubt they WOULD last 90 more days and thats with (allegedly) 200 million already raised.
Thats the irony the ONLY hope (and it really isnt hope because of the obvious mismanagement if not outright 'embezzlement' of backer funds) is that the money keeps pouring in, but in all seriousness and no one has ever answered this and they conveniently ignore it or at best give some stupid 'as much as it takes' answer. But how much money do people think it will take for them to actually release something even remotely playable let alone decent or 'epic'. Just a SINGLE aspect of the supposed three games theyre developing.
Has 200 mil got them even close? Are they half way there? 2/3s? 30%? Go back and look at the old comparisons when they were talking about budgets and theyre already closing in on the most expensive games ever made in terms of money spent to actually RELEASE them (not continue developing them).35 mil a year seems to be their self proclaimed average so in two more years (which will be about 9 or 10 years of development) theyll be at 275 or so (depending on how the year end hype telethons go) so is 10 years and ~275 million enough? How many games will release before then?
The times when he is wrong, they just pretend it didn't happen. Or, deflect by proclaiming anyone pointing out inconsistencies and errors "just don't understand game development".
When none of that will work, they just change the subject to bashing DS.
If CR came out insisting the sky is really bright orange, not blue, they would defend and insist he's right, and knows what he's talking about. When proven wrong, they'd start bashing DS.
That's been the pattern for literally years now. When things are going smooth with SC, "DS is a know-nothing, clueless, wanna-be dev". When things are amiss with it, somehow DS is responsible.
Youre also OK with someone without a budget because thats where they have been now for awhile and no matter how much money they allegedly raise it still wont be enough I guess.
Opened ended is never a good thing either time wise or money wise and with a guy like Roberts who has never finished anything without being forced to its a joke. That more than anything is why people with half a brain knew this thing didnt have a chance to begin with, and even with the astronomical sum of money they have allegedly raised they (he) still cant get close to releasing something.
I wish someone had him on tape or on the record with a hypothetical 'what if you raise 100 Million?' (half what they have allegedly raised so far) 'and 7 years, what will we as players expect to see with that type of money and time' I would LOVE to see what sort of nonsense answer he would have given and trust me it would be a hell of a lot more than what youre supposedly playing and think is more than enough to keep people busy for a long time....
He also claims that it was badly managed.
Kiko comes here linking one tweet responding to bloody DS (no we're not bringing up DS to dismiss someone randomly!), responding to one of DS famous "SC doomsday" rants with that, well anyone who reads that and takes it seriously wouldn't react any other way lol
If you get triggered because SC fans bring up DS, then start by not bringing up a discussion based on a DS rant (because the tweet is a response to it).
I'm not feeding this further, so I'm done with this garbage of a topic, go "have fun" with someone else willing to take the bait. //bacon out
What a surprise coming from someone who takes up what DS says seriously... Unless you're trying to imply he is making statements out of his personal knowledge of the project and not from following what DS says about it.
If your argument wasn't BS enough, being one game dev that worked in one AAA title doesn't validate saying things like top talent don't want to work for the company and they are badly paid, personal knowledge does, or on this case, following taking DS SC rants seriously.
I hope he enjoys his 0.5 seconds of "fame", lol
And I’d hate to break it to you but you’re the one who is triggered posting a rant about people talking about the topic. If you don’t like the topic stay out of it instead of being triggered enough to post in it.
I just posted on it because kikoo specifically leveled the topic to bait me and Erillion, what should be reportable but whatever... That said
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This guy Chris Roberts has ALWAYS been incompetent,literally to the point he admitted it himself when he mention ed that game development needs very deep pockets to succeed.
So when you admit and know it takes deep pockets,why was he selling his initial pitch expecting very little money?So in other words he has been delivering BS from day 1.
I wouldn't hire this guy to make a game of Yahtzee,oh go figure,he wasn't hired,he got free money and answers to nobody,nice gig he has going there.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.
Top Talent not enthused? Check
Though I personally think Star Citizen will release, just after Roberts has driven the project into the ground, and it gets bought by some outside investor. You know, Freelancer; Microsoft, all over again.
But the rats won't leave as long as the ship isn't completely sunk. Til then it's pina colada party on the poop deck.
If you are holding out for the perfect game, the only game you play will be the waiting one.
