Why would you create assets just for a show if you are already making assets for the game you could also use for the show?
Seriously, these guys are so full of it, its amazing nobody has tried to use them as a squatty potty.

One thing that annoys me about General on Spectrum.

Yes, you did wait 6 months for that. It allowed CIG to keep selling more ships before having to give any bad news! Rejoice Citizens! And buy more ships and Fortnite helmets! Also locked

Shouldn't really remind people of stuff they have memory holed. Especially when CR has recently said he doesn't give deadlines. It will be done when its done.

So we waited 6 months for that? - Star Citizen Spectrum
We waited 6 months for them to tell us SQ42 isn't going into beta this year, they don't have the internal dates even set for it, and we don't have a roadmap to even get there right now other than...

They did not show us anything - Star Citizen Spectrum
Omg this pathetic... They made video just talking about the same thing that they have talked in the past and no clue when beta is going to happen or when the roadmap will appear.. no trailer.. no...

SQ54: Done when it's done. - Star Citizen Spectrum
I find this statement somehow pretentious; especially when someone is making a project, without using his own money. After so many failed estimated delivery dates, after so many wrong information...

Which upsets you more right now: lack of transparency or lack of progress? - Star Citizen Spectrum
I'm seeing a lot of threads discussing the claim that CIG's latest SQ42 videos don't really tell us a lot or show us a lot. And a lot of people are complaining that the game is delayed and that...

So are we 3-5 years away from sq42 release ? - Star Citizen Spectrum
Cause I don't understand when the single player game will be done... Current sq42 videos show as if dveleplomnent is in early stages ?

So when are actually getting SQ42? - Star Citizen Spectrum
Anyone have any clue ?

SQ42 videos came. This is what I wanted... - Star Citizen Spectrum
"Too much delay" isn't good thing. But this is good thing. Thanks CIG.

"Even if they never got anything for it, it was cheap at that price. Without malice aforethought, I had given them the best show that was ever staged in the PC gaming world since Wing Commander! It was easily worth four hundred million bucks to watch me put the thing over."
That is what I think too. They probably looked at the state of SQ42 and said to them self oh boy another 5 years dev time until it could be complete. Let take as much money as possible for a settlement before this whole thing blow up.
Sounds like its time for a new concept ship sale!
Peter Molyneux Interview: "I haven’t got a reputation in this industry any more"
We speak to Peter Molyneux about Godus, Kickstarter, and his career of overpromising.

A very interesting interview. To say similarities exist would be an understatement. Its is a wall of text but a very good interview / interviewer. It is genuinely lol at times.
If cba to read it all, skip to the Kickstarter bits and the Pledges and various reward levels, when the interviewer asks about refunds, its brilliant.

That was 5 years ago. At this point I respect PM more than Roberts simply because Molyneux actually did come up with interesting mechanics for games like Populous, Syndicate, Theme Park, Dungeon Master and also had a record of releasing stuff in a finished state even if not to meet expectations. Much of his hype problems came about due to not understanding how preconceptions are built up during the early years of the internet. He didn't do it on the publics dime.
Chris Roberts came up with branching story lines for Wing Commander that were interesting. The actual combat was his attempt to make Elite without vector graphics and better people then him had to finish it (Origin had to demote him to creative director and bring in someone else to finish it). I'm not aware of much else you can say he actually did other than have his name shoved on for marketing, strike commander is largely the same sort of thing. He likeddirecting FMV for WC3/WC4 and he came up with some of the concept work for Freelancer and got booted off agian. Also he has taken everything Molyneux did and exploited it for money straight from the paying customer.

Apologies if this has been posted before, but I found it quite interesting and not at all off topic...

Good time for one of his posts: (December 2018)
And Christopher really did all that and much more! All 100 promised systems, full of moons and planets rendered to the last stone and flower, are already there. Now, if someone tells you that there is no such thing as secret build - well he is damn right, as those things are not secret, there already there in PU!
The only reason no player can get there is, according to LittleAnt, minor hiccup on server meshing.

I could see CR saying many things like that.
PM really had an alternative view of some things.
Disgraceful, simply disgraceful
This cannot end any other way now but in disaster. Not for Crobber and nepotites of course (they'll have limited time to get well hidden somewhere nice and warm in the world) but for the ground level developers, writers, and not to mention the supporter schmucks that still buy into this thing.
I can totally see Crobber and assorted nepotites selling this all off as a going concern to a large development house and walking away laughing. It gets boxed up into something vaguely resembling "the dream" and everyone will breath a sigh of relief that supported it and defend all of crobbers decisions as Godlike.
It's the only way this gets released in any sort of form that makes anyone happy.
