Do ED store proceeds go into Elite development?

Perhaps I'm confused- but what I'm seeing from your URL is a thread debating SC and FD's worth rather than anything discussing Planet Coaster and funds being diverted to its development?

Have anything a bit more specific?

Keep reading. That thread I created was the first point where I began to question FD's business model. Everything I've discussed about their financials, Annual Reports, dev statements and so on starts from that point onward. You can read the other threads I linked if you want something more recent.

So you don't have any specifics. OK, thanks. :)

I've linked the appropriate threads already, you actually need to read them. A more recent post would be here:
https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showt...-beta-access?p=4552891&viewfull=1#post4552891

You really do need to read through the threads however. As in all of them. It's a long and detailed discussion that I am not going to repeat here.

Um, you're trying to convince other people yet you expect them to read threadnoughts of hundreds of posts to get to the information you want conveyed? Seriously?

Thanks for providing a DIRECT link to the post you're referring to. From what I understand, you're positing a theory regarding the funds spent toward Planet Coaster based on financials from 2015-2016, but I've yet to see proof that FDEV actually diverted funds from ED to do so... do you have a direct link to provide proof of this, or not?

Wait a minute. You were literally just asking me for specifics. I linked them for you. Now you're complaining that you have to actually read the thread to understand those specifics?

Fortunately I have a meme for that.

It's not simply a "theory" when it's clearly supported by evidence from FD's own Annual Reports, as well as FD's own devs stating that multicrew turned out the way it did because they didn't have enough resources to produce a better product.

Once you have sufficient evidence for something it can't be simply dismissed as a "theory" unless you can produce sufficient evidence to argue against what was already presented. That is the level of discussion required here considering all of the references I've already provided.

The burden of "proof" is on YOU since you're the one alleging they've diverted funds.

YES. Your allegation is a THEORY and nothing more until you've proven it as fact.

I've provided that proof many times already. You need to read the threads. It's all there and referenced in detail for you or anyone else who actually wants to read it.

That's because all you've referenced is your THEORY and not factual information.

Try looking up "Theory" in the dictionary sometime.

The 2015 and 2016 Annual Reports published by FD aren't "factual"? Dev statements from Sandro in the video livestreams aren't "factual"?

I think those are considered sources of facts since they come directly from official FD sources.

Where exactly do they state in the 2015-2016 Annual Reports published by FD that they have diverted funds from ED into Planet Coaster?

So we're back to you having no specifics. Gotcha.

I want to see a specific post or statement from FD saying that they've diverted funding from ED to Planet Coaster or JWE. Else, you're speculating and all you have is a theoretical argument.

Conspiracy theory, in other words.

I never buy anything from store yet except the free one.

But despite all my rage (sometimes), i would consider buy few things in the store that I like this year. For example, chrome and gold paintjob. Just to help Frontier if they needed. Because I like this game very much.

Happy new year 2018 by the way ^^
