I's ok my dear Sovapid - I can mail you some SFP+ transceivers and OM3's.
You'll have to obtain your own rack of course, but that's cheaper and faster (and arguably far more productive and entertaining) than obtaining an Idris

At least it's consistent with the flight model, and landing physics. Ships are just giant inflatable balloons.
Wishing someone to die chocking of Covid over a game, man's a class act. Still an impressive beard for a 12 years old tho'.
…but that's ok, I'm sure there's a paragraph in there about how, by using Twitch, you are inherently a streaming superstar and should at all times be excluded from normal gamplay that you might not enjoys and if you come across any anyway, it's definitely the other guy who's the bad guy.Twitch TOS said:
…blissfully ignoring that it's not the naysayers and complainers that have an effect on SC (or the other way around), but rather the biggest economic downturn in yonks that has had a tremendous effect on all economic sectors. If it isn't having an effect, then that sector doesn't know how to count properly or is just making numbers up.

To be fair some IT and online entertainment sectors seem to actually be thriving under lockdown. Even FDEV recently stated in RNS that they have just seen increased sales due to it and estimate to reach the upper end of their annual estimates this FY.
Having said that CIG sales seem a tad ... large.
I've seen lots of people in Twitch chat saying they bought the game recently. It's almost always the same story: they saw Lirik or some other streamer playing the game and they bought it because it looked pretty. Then their questions in chat show they know nothing about the game, Chris' history, etc.
Well personally I have spent on games much more than in normal times.
I'd agree with that...judging by the sheer amount of newbies in game since the lockdown began. Going by the comments in the game chat...they won't be around for long... if they haven't already refunded after their initial attempts to play
As for gamers, nobody is really interested in the rise and fall of Ci¬G nor Chrissie boy's history...to the majority of gamers outside of the space game genre, Chris Roberts might as well be a TV chef...some old dude that wrote a computer game once...which isn't far removed from the truth. Most of those casual drop in - drop out gamers new to Star Citizen will simply give it a try because they saw a cool video on YouTube, realise after a few minutes it's a broken mess and just move on to something else after getting their money back.

Great! The game that CIG sold to backers still won't get made no matter how much money they throw at this.
But the really important takeaway from this is, should the game fail, if they can make record funding despite criticism, they can't bame GOOOOONS or Derek Smart or anyone else for that failure. They can only blame 1 person, Chris Roberts.
Oh well, they will learn soon enough, and it will just make the blowback even larger.

But will the funding tracker show those refunds? I think we know the answer to that one.
The Problem SC had from the beginning is that they did not get that I amount of new players the need to keep this thing running. But I could confirm that the most noobs are leaving the game after they see the state of 3.9 if I could believe the spectrum posts.I'd agree with that...judging by the sheer amount of newbies in game since the lockdown began.

But at this time SC had become a clear Ponzi Scheme. Maybe that is the reason why the Calders invested?
The tracker is as real as the wurm.
The Calders certainly didn't invest in a broken space game. I doubt they've ever watched a video of Star Citizen or ever viewed it as a potentially released game title bringing in revenue, read reports on it's perpetually mismanaged development or are even mildly interested in Ci¬G and Chris Roberts as a going concern...they just evaluate figures from their financial advisors of a growing list of idiots chucking cash at the project and the Hollywood accounting possiblities for that cash via 17 shell companies.

It can't be that bad amongst the new player chat? I've seen some of the streams and sure, it's extremely buggy and unstable at the moment, but I would have thought there'd be enough there for newbies to find something to interest them past the 30 day refund period.I'd agree with that...judging by the sheer amount of newbies in game since the lockdown began.
