This. I tried alot to apply Hanlon's Razor to these people, but not anymore, they're active cogs of the deception machine this mess of a project has become (and maybe always have been)

Well, own pockets & publisher pockets is not going to happen. Investors it already happening, so we'll see if they will expand that, but I am very certain they will not expand it to a scale where they don't need to rely on crowdfund money.
No no you don't understand, SC has horrendous scope creep, scope cannot be restricted. And still waiting for that crash and burn stage, according to Mr. Smart that happened around the 2017 Holiday livestream but that's a whole other topic.
Still no solution to the crowdfunding problem...
Don't? It doesn't need funding. A tapered cash flow would force them to release something, and based on the quality of that something, they might generate more revenue, which they could then reinvest in expanding and improving their product(s).
The option to stop funding always exists, because continued funding hasn't brought CIG closer to the finish line in a decade. They aren't anywhere near their original pitch, much less all the other dreams they haven't delivered.
Backers are not investors, succesfull investors tend not to be gullible marks with their money
But rather want return on their investments. Just like publishers do. Thats the reason why CR did not go through traditional funding route. He has rather bad reoutation on gaming industry circles.And now we're back at this conspiracy, no. Not a solution.
John Wick is always a good answer. To any question.
I don't see a conspiracy. I just see a list of unchecked boxes established and unfulfilled by CIG.
When money is paid and deliverables aren't, well, delivered, the hired party doesn't get continued funding for further delays.
I don't see how this is a conspiracy, unless basic commerce makes you want to wear a tinfoil hat.
There's a new version of Goat simulator? Yay! Space Goat Simulator has tons more fidelity than Star Citizen
Just did, but you have shown yourself incapable of engaging with either simple or complex answers with any form of intellectual honesty. As you have just demonstrated yet again.
You are here merely to swamp any form of criticism of SC in a slather of blather, and it is very tedious.
So it will be of some concern to you, no doubt, that the detailed criticism of SC, and the freeform fooling around at its expense, will carry on regardless
And as I'm sure we all know, all of this chat is just shooting the breeze ultimately. SC will do what it does. And what it does may not be particularly pleasing to its more ardent fans.
One thing's for sure though. We'll be seeing you at the
Prediction Awards at the end of this year. Of that I have no doubt There's a new version of Goat simulator? Yay! Space Goat Simulator has tons more fidelity than Star Citizen
Always has had
And surely not giving them any more money is going to make the game release? Right?
Just to think, it took CIG years to catch up to the jankiness of joke game, Goat Simulator: Waste of Space.
Bankruptcy! That will make them release a game! Somehow...
I mean its funny, you guys complain about missed promises, and things sold to backers not being in the game now (even when it's still under active development) and then suggest to not give them any more money.
What is going to happen? They'll have to cut out a significant portion of the game and plop out a shoddy 1.0 version within a year. You're not gonna get 100 systems, you might get server meshing but that's about it. Promises will be definitely not be fulfilled.

Giving them money certainly hasn't, but no one has tried the alternative (usually out of sunk cost and fear that their dream bubble will burst).
Limited funds yield results either way. You will see if CIG tries to push out a product, or if they just scatter to the dark corners of the kitchen. Ongoing funds and zero time limits haven't yielded anything.
Now that I am looking forward to.One thing's for sure though. We'll be seeing you at the
There is no crowdfunding problem. Crowdfunding for SC stopped at the end of the KS campaign. Now it is just an online store with assets and game packages.
When you reward bad behauviour, you are not going to get good behauviour. Say you have a puppy and you are trying to train it to be house clean. Do you offer it a treat every time it does its natural needs on your living room carpet? How long you think it will take to teach it to be house clean that way?
Things work same way with humans.
