My takeaway form the spectrum post:
- SQ42 is not coming anytime soon. Otherwise why bother with making a roadmap for a few months
- Management seems to be more chaotic then ever. A video (usually done by marketing) being cancelled without marketing knowing, because it wasn't high quality enough - even though it was supposed to be low effort to begin with. This screams CR to me.
- They couldn't get out a reply until now. And it took a lot of pressure. Stuff is going on in there.
- I read through the first ~ 30 replies and not a single one was supportive of CIG. It's been a while since it was that bad.
Finally our soap opera is gaining some steam again. Can't wait for the season finale!

Maybe CR sent them a note
Not sure, back then Microsoft had an invested interest and the experience to make something you could at least put in shrink wrap. That's how everyone got paid.
The Calders and other investors were not in the games industry, they want to sell virtual assets, it already does so in it's current form.
Nobody is going to rescue this one
"While the wider world has accepted that Star Citizen (and its singleplayer spin-off Squadron 42 campaign) are perhaps never coming out".... It must be times for a ship sale...

Eight Years Into Development, Star Citizen Fans Are Increasingly Upset That Star Citizen Is Still Being Star Citizen
While the wider world has accepted that Star Citizen (and its singleplayer spin-off Squadron 42 campaign) are perhaps never coming out, those who paid for the game back in 2012—and have either paid or kept paying since—are growing increasingly unhappy at developer Cloud Imperium Games’ lack of...

Oh man, they needed someone to say "Bob's read all the points on the new roadmap, it's just not quite ready for release, we're still doing spellchecks". 
Yeah, this post was deleted and the backer sent on vacation very quickly.
Sorry guys, but Chris Roberts was not up to our quality standards so we had to scrap him and restart from scratch.
Now we are planning a roadmap for pipelines of Tier 0 Chris Roberts, governed by Bartender AI. When enough fidelity is poured into subsumption, he will punch above its weight. Until then, buy an Idris!

Word of warning: I totally pulled this out of my sleeve, no other source.
Enjoy:
Thats pure CI-G.
"Find a honest way to placate" is golden.
"if we put roadmap for backers, investors will use it to penalize" actually means that the roadmap has fake dates right from the start. This is why the roadmap for roadmap needs 4 months itself.

paranoid tinfoil hat theories I m sure ^^ Everythings fine, everythings normal
Thing is - the situation in SC-land is much the same as last month. Only difference is that the press wrote about it, and CIG responded. Other than than the news recently has been mostly positive (finally 3.10 and a flight model update rather than the usual 'we added seaweed, enjoy!').
Mostly it seems to me the furore is just the press giving a focus to a lot of built-up 'are we there yet?'. Which is kinda interesting as all the talk when the press was 'oh, they still exist, what use are they?'
(Not saying I don't think CIG have big issues, I just don't see them being any worse than last week)

There is no SQ42. They made it all up. "I've played all the white and greybox levels" is boleks. They like converted some existing assets to some untextured mess, changed the spawn location for several versions and saved these as different mission levels to fool unknowing onlookers.
Going by the way CIG employees end up looking, that's a lot of punch.
Yeah, at least TheAgent's "leaks" are dumb and funny with a ring of truth, whereas the actual truth would probably be more along the lines of dumb and depressing, with a ring of existential horror.
Oh, and who'd'a thunk it? The "atmo flight model" is just a bunch of hideously hastily and clumsily set IFCS parameters. Such fidelity.

This is hilarious...
ACTUAL RESULT
Drag in atmospheric flight is on. Ship is losing altitude as expected when in horizontal flight. Requires constant pitch to maintain altitude. This is expected without lift generating surfaces. Now roll ship 90 degrees from level. Ship no longer loses altitude and remains steady. Now ship drfts equal amounts along the horizon as it did when losing altitude at level flight. The drag/gravity effect appears to be applied statically to the ship where direction points to bottom of the ship along that central axis.
