New alien cargo ship baby!
Flyable?
So about that other, single player game, that Zyloh played in 2016:
Highlights:
(No, this thing will never release as long as the spice flows)
BTW, a new alien ship, concierge only, 225 USD.

- Work begun on FPS exterior spaces in Chapter 13
- "A tool was also created to reference and play each landing gear compression spring in the vehicle setup independently. For example, this enables the team to extract or retract a ship’s hind landing skids before the fronts."
- They are transferring PU's reputation system to SQ42
- They are updating agent Trejo's head :-D

Well, in every commercial enterprise I’m familiar with, I buy goods or services outright. I receive said goods or services after completing the transaction, and if they’re unable to fulfill what I want, no money changes hand. If funds need to be raised to start the business, it’s via the traditional avenues: such as business loans or sales of shares of stock. Profits are either reinvested in the company, distributed via dividends
In the case of crowd funding, this isn’t the case. I loan you the money necessary to start production of the good or service you wish to offer, but rather than receiving interest from that loan, I receive that good or service at a discount at a later date. Probably not the most profitable of financial investments, but when the choice is this or not getting something I want at all (or getting it at a much higher price) then crowdfunding is an option. Until I get what you promised, I expect you to be a good steward of the money I loaned you.
This includes not living a lavish lifestyle with the money I loaned you, selling “your” shares the company to enrich yourself, and siphoning away that money via complex Hollywood Accounting Schemes. And if you underestimated your expenses, or the time and effort required, I still expect you to make a good faith effort to deliver what you promised in a timely manner. Only after you’ve delivered what you promised me, are you free to pocket anything that remains… if anything remains, that is.
Physicalised gravity. Take note, industry!Nice! The new ship as a magical blue cylinder that sucks you up into the ship!

Ahem, you mean the new JPG has another JPG showing a concept of what may happen at some unspecified point in the future if they implement it this way?
If that were the case, i shudder to think of the base price of SC once it releases.
Where do they draw the line in order to ensure the whales are getting it at a discount?
Will $100,000 be enough?

Can see 2022 already:
"How many space cows can we get in this thing...?"
This describes the nature of the capital or funding of the entity. It doesnt have so much influence on the company. More on the individual behaviour of its agents I guess. The company shpuld still work as a commercial entity - it is set up legally this way.
But yeah the towards accountability of crowd funded capital is severely lacking imo.
the funny thing is this is what you see in the front page of Star Citizen kickstarter:A: Because you'd just been indulging in some context-shorn ED whataboutery, and you have form for the same. (IE ED's community is angered at the moment regarding the lack of ship interiors in the current DLC, and it would be precisely like you to think that was a meaningful point which normalised CIG.)
and
B: Because even if talking entirely about CIG, those ship interiors aren't 'delivered' (in the sense that the tech is infamously glitchy, and the product is infamously unlaunched). Both elements widely known, and in the case of the latter, extensively discussed in the last hour...
and
C: Because you've been doing a lot of inane trolling lately
Real quick, Star Citizen is:
- A rich universe focused on epic space adventure, trading and dogfighting in first person.
- Single Player – Offline or Online(Drop in / Drop out co-op play)
- Persistent Universe (hosted by US)
- Mod-able multiplayer (hosted by YOU)
- No Subscriptions
- No Pay to Win
And they alteady failed the 5th one
comment on kickstarter page dated one month ago:
"I paid $100 for my single player story game 9 years ago. I should have bought drugs for a homeless guy instead."
some funny quote from the kickstarte page:
"Star Citizen is a PC game through and through and could never be played on the Xbox 360, Playstation 3 or WiiU"
Our modding tools will allow players to design new ships for both submission to the persistent RSI ship dealer network or to build custom ships and items for the self-hosted multiplayer mode.
We have backed Oculus Rift and will support it in Star Citizen / Squadron 42.

- Allowing user generated content is a key design goal

It's a good thing I totally gave up on understanding how anyone could have any faith in this project long ago, or I'd be risking an aneurism.So about that other, single player game, that Zyloh played in 2016:

Dude...Nice! The new ship as a magical blue cylinder that sucks you up into the ship!
Missing the opportunity to point out a ship the will actually suck concierge backers off ...the surface of the planet? I’m disappointed in you.
I am a sweet innocent boy and would never think such unpure thoughts!
