Congratulations for missing the point entirely...
Hmm...
According to the posts the average salary is 67K a year which becomes 5583 per person and month which lowers my initial calculation to 63 million instead of the 78 million
Add non salary expenses to that and we have about 110 million - If that is how the 75% increased expenses are calculated. I doubt it's 75% across the board since 2013 but it gives us an upper figure at least.
Well, I guess it added nothing to the game.

I've tried to have a conversation, but it seems that the White Knighting is constant and unrelenting. Amusing though I guess.

Huh? I thought they had already ripped apart the netcode at least once before.
Really? They are still parroting that? With potentially hundreds of thousands of players (if true) online at the same time? Hah, would hate to see their server and bandwidth costs to achieve that, never mind the netcode that can handle it, especially since there is such a limited playarea. Imagine 1000 people standing around trying to talk to Miles

I wish I was English like my hero Tj.
They delayed Arena Commander 1.0 to rewrite the netcode as I recall. I wonder how many rewrites they need.....
I must commend PCGamer for their honesty

Seems they've been ripping it apart since 2014, now they're struggling to put it back together again
If they showed a working example where they had a few thousand bot clients on a mesh and they could transfer them between servers I'd be a bit more inclined to believe them but they can't even get 24 people into 1 instance.
I guess CCP have been doing it wrong all these years and CIG are just going to waltz in and show them how it should be done (with added fidelity)...

How many times will you pay for it?
Too late, PC gamer mods have moved in and insta-banned me again. Strange that they leave in all the trolls on the PC Gamer Disqus comments section that support the Star Citizen Project and ban anyone voicing their opinion against the project.

In which case, FoIP is clearly working at distracting the masses from this train wreck that is Star Citizen.

Most of the bans I noticed in that star citizen discussion seem to be for suggesting that the writer of the article IE an employee of the company had written the article in a pro SC way after having been paid by CIG, IE accusing them of corruption. I do not think they could allow such allegations against their employee to stand.
I would have thought that if people feel that way they should make a formal complaint to them so that they can investigate the article writer.
In fact it was balanced and made some negative points about SC as well so I doubt it was paid for.
(thanks for editing the last bit of your post out)

It was clear from the live demo that it has not been developed by CIG but by a third party, the CEO or whatever of that was on VT at the live DEMO saying that his company have been working on it for (I think 7 years)
So I can not accept that it is being marketed as an amazing thing that CIG has done.
Your comment was on 28/7, but got culled in the great moderation at the end of July.
I guess the take away from all of this is that 3.0 is not in any way shape or form a MVP.
Given that none if it's currently in the game, no it hasn't. 3.0 hasn't been delivered, and the hands-on demo at Gamescom didn't feature any of that stuff anyway. Meanwhile, Squadron 42 continues to be as much of a game as Half Life 3.

I suppose what we need is someone who has followed and documented every step of the project so that we can find the sources for these things quickly when required to assist the discussion

On all those points we do agree. Not sure about the facetracking since I did not watch the demo.
Imagine 1000 people standing around trying to talk to Miles
Then imagine if even a quarter of them had FOIP how much this would slow down the network.
Oh the potential for griefing this game grows with every iteration....
Depending on wether Miles is activated by proximity queues, boundary intersection or LOS - it would take no time at all for a couple of lulzbunnies to effectively remove him from the game for everyone else with a couple of red boxes and a Big Benny's

Considering that people have in the current early alpha already moved around a big bennys noodles around the solar system I would applaud if people went through the job of blockading a bar or other establishment with cargo crates. That takes commitment.
