Don't worry, debating with Jex is like trying to play chess with a pigeon — he knocks the pieces over, craps on the board, and flies back to its flock to claim victory.

Oh, comments like that do make me laugh.
I did coding at college too, and then I went on to have a 30 year career in software development, managing large scale applications with hundreds of thousands of lines of code, far FAR bigger than any "college project". Believe me, I know exactly what I'm talking about. E: D is massive. Never mind the galaxy size (you can actually generate a passable galaxy in a few dozen lines of code since it's mainly maths), that's just playarea - not project size. Of course, E: D takes it a step further with Stellar Forge, but that's just one example of how extensive E: D is in sheer scale.
Show me the game to play, and I'll be convinced. Until then, they're just producing videos, tech demos, and patting themselves on the back a lot. Sorry, but there it is... one backer's view.
30 years experience and you brush off 400 developers who are actually working on a game which you've never done in your life. Of course, adding a turret and a wheel of fortune was soooo much work....
And yet the last time I had to explain to you what we were talking about, you didn't respond. Also, care to provide some examples of this game of chess because I know that you can't.
You're the one that constantly needs to be told what's being discussed around here. Everyone else seems to work out stuff perfectly fine.
So basically our regular web commentator
Says the guy that just announced to everyone that because something works in linux, it should work in OSX LOL
That's absolutely not true, last time we discussed you completely disappeared from the forums for a few days (and all your posts with you). And no, I didn't put you on ignore.
You should never make assumptions about people, especially wrong ones. I'll just leave that there - can't be bothered arguing with you.
Also, I'm not "brushing off" the SC developers. I'm saying they haven't actually produced anything playable in 5 years. Which is true. Whatever the reasons for it are, that simple fact remains.

If my posts disappear it's the mods deleting them. Ask them about it.
Not sure if retarted or trolling...
