Sandi reminding everyone her only role in SC these days is to ensure she gets her 10% cut of the income.

Bought another ship in game tonight on the alt. So happy to get out of the hornet and into the buccaneer. hopefully the buffs the bucc got in 3.13 stick around for 3.14.
Also trying to max out the good guy bounty hunting rep and it takes quite a while. Desynch gives the npcs advantages that makes up for how badly they normally fly.

Dont panic, someone has found the cookie jar containing the funds and put it back, funding levels have reverted to the norm ~100k a day (which still beggars belief).
Selling dreams is always profitable. As long as you can either deliver on those dreams or have a good exit plan.
The best part is when the actual alpha already deliver some of your dreams !
For sure. And i'm sure if CIG could get things a bit more stable, make things a bit more performant, a few more gameloops, they could release it as a half-decent MVP. It will still be light years away from what was promised, but it would shut up some of the criticism. Apart from the fact that it took them over 400 million and 10 years to make that half-decent MVP.
Who knows, with another 500 million in pledges and another 10 years of development they might fulfil perhaps 20% of the promised content and features They might even release SQ42!!!!
Look, regulators! I am attending to my duties.

Hmm... won't it be the end of CIG's financial year soon? Could this be the meeting where they are discussing how much dividends to give themselves?
Welcome to the Star Citizen "proof of life" directors board meeting, let's start with a regular game of "Chris says"..
Chris says, stand up...Chris says put your arms out like this...
Sit down...
mwahhahaha, Chris never said.
Well, FDEV is an evil dev and evil publisher in a single package. CIG are there to heroically disrupt the Sodom and Gomorrah of the gaming industry.
I reckon it's going to be held in that air ship from View to a Kill.
Sandi is just there to "show out" investors that want to make a released game.
Anyone else want to ..drop out?
FD - a profitable company with many years of successfully released games with more games coming out soon.
CIG - a company with zero profits*, no released products, entirely dependent on the goodwill and funding of backers.
Put it this way, if it was discovered that the CIG board were giving themselves dividends before releasing a game then backers should be morally outraged. I say should be, because they would probably just throw more money at CIG and absolve them.
* - use the term loosely here, but profit as in they are not generating any revenue from a released product. They are to-date running entirely on debt - money given, product still owed.
and keep stacking more debt on top. Thats the thing that would worry me the most. And I also understand WHY they do...because at its current iteration it already starts to fall behind in all regards so CiG tries to keep it "fresh" but by doing so extend the development time by years and decades (that is....if you want the whole thing that you were promised. Very probable that CiG will eventually release a fraction of the dream and walk away)
profit is what remains after you subtract your income from the cost.
Right now Star Citizen has no definitive total cost. Its a running tab that keeps increasing until CiG marks the game as released. So whatever CiG takes in, the roughly 500 million to date are catching up to the cost of the project. There is no "profit" in this yet.
That's why i put in the caveat.
Investment history knows the "silly German money" - SC funding is even idiotic money.
