The Star Citizen Thread V10

Absolutely yes. It won't become public until it goes through the court next year.

CIG filed a protective order in March 2018 to 'reduce the scope and timing of discovery' to keep *something* hidden but that was denied by the judge last April. This is a link to CIG's protective order being denied:

Speculation is that they wanted to keep the finances under wraps. Whatever it was it'll presumably become public record at some point.


Side note - There are clearly resourcing and urgent staffing issues with the UK studio right now and CIG's frantic activities to resolve them aren't going unnoticed.

I’m keen to see exactly home much of that lovely free cash CR and friends have decided to gift each other.
In a company that doesn’t seem to have to worry to much about results impacting the income I’m curious how many millions they’ve put in their own accounts.

Not really development relevant and we ll probably never know but yeah I would like to know as well ^^

Wow. That is impressive...

What was it that Genuine Roberts said about their remastered Morrow Tour? And all those reworked cutscenes will have to be urm, reworked again for all the fidelities

It could be relevant in counting up precisely how much money has been made using Crytecs software.

WORM WAS NOT A JOKE!

I love how in that meeting everyone seems to have their head screwed on right except for... Chris Roberts.

EDIT: Bit that is missing from that image right after it is gold as well.

John Crewe, Lead Technical Designer, F42: How many missiles does the worm carry?

Pretty sure John Crewe is trying to make a joke there, but presume it goes right over Chris' head.

Know a Sci-Fi trope? SC is gonna pick ot up.

Well actually ships have mass of bowl of petunias, so it's already in the game, and better and more fidelicious than anything ever done before.

Checks out.

Checks out.

I guess that is Clifford.... some people just have money to burn.

 

[Asp Explorer]

Hmmm, lets see....

This is an Idris-M Frigate

Spoiler

It's a fidelitous 1140x390 pixels and it punches above it's weight. Now, a true Star Citizen backer knows the true value of immersion pixels in chariot jpegs, and that cheapskate has only donated 12.955% of it's real value.

Buy Pledge for a ship now so you can name it before all the good ship names are taken!

CAN I RESERVE A SHIP NAME IF I’M NOT READY TO PLEDGE FOR A SHIP?

No, the acquisition of the ship is required to reserve a name at this time. While, eventually, everyone will be able to name their ship(s), early access to the name reservation system is limited to those making pledges that specifically mention they grant access to this feature.

Huh… it's almost as if CI±G is a wholly unethical company.

It's almost as if they have discovered databases

They really are in a league of their own.

 

[LanceLord]

Checks out.

Only $57.6K USD?

Pffft. What a stingy #yoloswag playa wannabe

All that guarantees that overly pious SC disciple is entitlement to the comprehensive vaporware ship package, that $1k backer velvet rope backroom access on CI forums, the associated exclusive fish tank/trophy/clutter decor, and possibly a free cold sandwich lunch with God Roberts in the flesh. Assuming that final backer perk promo is still a thing that is.

Translation: no potential class A stock or a seat upon the Imperium council with the other CI-G vaporware peddling demigods.

So this backer is still basically a peasant like the other 2 mil or so SC universe villeins--with a slightly higher elevated status from that motley lot.

Looks at the list. I see Jango Fett mentioned as being against it, and he is a goon. Thefore all the opposition is just a plot by goons and Derek Smart to undermine CIG. Ipso facto, summa laude, people must be in favour of reserved ship names.

Nice try you Derek alt!

Pretty sure the post is referring to a different Jango Fett than the goon one.
