What? Escargots in SC? Impressive. But I doubt it. Isn't he British? Then went to USA - I find it hard to believe that would make for a successful culinary career in any way.Ah, i suppose another thing CR promised would be added to Star Citizen

Aww.Saw that one already back in 2016. It's not a live event, all the videos will be edited and curated, as will the commentary. It's a glorified ISC video event so anyone hoping for a blooper reel will be sadly disappointed
And the whole sandwurmie sequence did play back again for no reasonI remember they messed up one of their 'live playing demoes' on stage and a part literally replayed again. Was super awkward and in the version they uploaded to youtube it was edited out. Or the 'live sandworm one' with the surprise sandstorm, where they sniped an opponent. The player clearly missed but the npc was polite enough to not make a big deal about it and simply died anyway.
The live demoes are still often funny in that even staging a fake demo is something they cannot reliably pull off.
If that were true every "live service" game, or any game that received post-release patches, DLC or expansions would be classed as "alpha", indefinitely.
The alpha tag is only applied to SC to protect it from being formally reviewed and to deflect criticism. It has been, at best, "early access" for several years now, and even that is wearing thin. There'll be new ships of course, some of which will hint at new mechanics without actually implementing them. Quite likely they'll cobble together a tier 0 multi-system solution and expand the "'verse", but that'll just be more of the same, the equivalent of an expansion pack. There'll be a few inconsequential, left-field additions that were never even on the roadmap. There'll be the occasional gesture towards new mechanics, and there will always be new jesus patch buzzwords to pin your hopes on, but It's never going to be significantly different to what it is now unless they do something really drastic like reboot the whole project. They could do a poll, "should we make SC even better than you ever imagined?!!" and then when they're back at square one you could claim the community voted for it.
You wouldn't even be able to list "all key gameplay functionalities." Not even Roberts could, because it's been a moving target since the project began.
Hey, if something is stupid and it's making you tens of millions per year for 10 years, it's not stupid, it's brilliant.
That's the plan B in case
Except it's not profit but pre-sales.
Oh, I can bet there's personal profits being made...

Makes no difference to the Roberts Clan. If their UK shell company is any indication, they’ve been giving themselves 10% of the gross, not the net.
Say what you will about Chris, but he clearly learned the most valuable lesson from Hollywood.

Stealing someone else’s ship is not illegal? Does stealing someone’s ship have any kind of crime stat or similar penalty associated with it? Why can’t just the owner shoot at the thief? Would he be getting the crime stat instead?
The alpha tag is here because some major techs/gameplays vitals for the game are still missing : server meshing, final cache service, quanta system, breaking the 50 players limit, Vulkan API, space jump...
That's not what you find in live services patch or DLC.
For many questions, 42 is the answer, for those concerning SC/SQ42 the answer is CIG.
In the grim, dark future of the 30th century, a single sliver of hope remains - the absolute primacy of the value of human life over property rights*

True. That’s the kind of thing which should’ve already been in place before a single player began “testing,” like every other early access and open alpha game I’ve ever participated in.
Yay. I just do it for Mole, because he loves us going by the books. You sell spmething and it's revenue. After deducting cost you get the profit.
Or loss. Simplified version.
You sometimes hear that what they get from the salesare grofits. Technically they are liabilities until the debt is delivered on but I dont want Mole to faint.
Bloated management salary is cost, too btw. There is no requirement to pay CEOs from profits only.
You may think so but curvy ladies pay the biggest dividends is what I say.

Investments can go down as well as up. Matron.
