Ah, November 20th they are doing another Expo.
Open your wallets ladies and gentlemen. CIG need your money!

A lot of speculation and "CIG said" in relation to NPC crew in the comments here

And someone says...
1: New games? They are struggling to release one. And SQ42 depends very much on how good it is when released.
2: Pay to Win - post release, this would not even be debatable.
3: Par for the course these days
4: CIG promised to stop selling ships post release.... but there again, CIG have promised lots of things over the years
Haha, they are having a ship expo in Dual Universe

Hah, someone doesn't want their big ship being destroyed by small ships

I wonder how much they are in for.
Is CIG preparing the game for CR? LOL

Ooooh someone daring to ask if CIG have done stuff they have talked about doing... from 2014

SC's scale
robertsspaceindustries.com
Not real scale of course. But let's not mention that.
Also... good time to be a gamer... yes, it is. And SC isn't a factor in that. PC gaming doesn't need saving.
LOL... bargaining down. Funny.
This is so confusing and I still can't decide... what is the largest ship a single player can operate optimally? - Star Citizen Spectrum
I am reading a lot of mixed messages on Spectrum and in CIG content about our ability to operate large ships alone (with NPCs of course). What would be the viable choice for a single player and...

If Star Citizen will be released at some point in the future ... what would it be worth for you? - Star Citizen Spectrum
Hi Citizens, I'll try to figure out what's my intention with this post: I had thought about the fact how will Star Citizen be financed in the future, if we will get to the point CIG mentioned in...

Please don't let star citizen to be like this. - Star Citizen Spectrum
Well, in theory, it's good giving players to do whatever they want but too much freedom looks like this I mean look at it... It just looks bad no immersion and everything is a mess. Not bashing...

I am confused at peoples expectations between ship classes.... - Star Citizen Spectrum
I get really tired with the time to kill debate when it comes to medium and large ships. It is a constant debate of "I want my little ship to destroy all?" This is against every principal of...

Is VR getting better in SC? - Star Citizen Spectrum
Hello every one! Not sure how many of you are using Vorpx with addition of VR goggles in Star Citizen, but after 3.11 there has been a significant improvement in geometry VR mode and performance -...

Has any of this been implemented ?? - Star Citizen Spectrum
Just looking at some old stuff from Chris 2014 ..It seems that most of this has not been implemented, when he indicates that we should be communicating with indigenous life . So going on the number...

Awesome vid I just had to share.

There's only one nameable ship as far as I know...the warbond Corsair. It was part of the warbond package for the concept jpeg...'Pick a unique name for a ship you won't see for 11 years'. Awesome
I always get a bite out of the faithful when I remind them that all my ships in Elite have unique names and serial numbers
I mean, even Warframe, a F2P looter-shooter, has implemented ship names on hull (and multicrew, and boarding, and crew fixing fire/hull breaches from inside the ship or forging ammo or the resources the pilot needs to activate the systems...)
when a little $140 ship gets picked on by thousands of dollars worth of ships

No, no, CIG vowed not use any backers money for marketing and advertising and those are just marketing funds you silly goose. That is all. CIG promised backers that all the investment money is earmarked for the marketing and launch campaigns for SC and SQ42 obviously and will never, ever, true blue, be touched for development of the game.
You obviously have frack all idea about PR manipulation and having cakes and eating them

lol, you'll love Dual Universe
Good, another chance not to add to CIG's coffersNever mind though...the lizards in Ci¬G's marketing department managed to fire up a ship sales event
Good, another chance not to add to CIG's coffers
theres a lot riding on this one, if Nov & Dec are less than 20% of year revenue its downhill fast, the credit card is maxed out.....if its 25%+ of year revenue, Ill see you in 10 years
It's still early days my dear Skiz! We are still in the earliest stages of development of Tier 0 of the Vision - things will really start to ramp up soon, now that the pipelines are laid for really delivering on Ship Sale content production.
CI-G are still building corporate entities and onboarding talent to staff the studios - and this takes time, as anyone with any experience will full well know.
We can expect development to really start in the next couple of years, and that is really quite an extraordinary accomplishment..

Was it really a full year or just a few months? It is pretty funny that I've dropped so many freaking leaks at this point I can barely remember them. I do remember the PvP drop being pretty damn spot on, though.
CI-G have invented Arkanoid?
After a bit of searching around, i found this post from May 2019 (the prison was added in April 2020's 3.9 update):
Star Citizen: Death of a Space Thread?
hello
- expect a big announcement regarding 4.0/"the future of Star Citizen" this year
- this will include a statement about "release" and how you've been playing SC "release" as it evolves
- "No other game company offers this level of transparency or honesty."
- new ship sales (including variants) to increase to a monthly or bi-monthly schedule
- quarterly packages, including rare or limited ships, to start appearing soon with limited buying
- "FOMO is our middle name."
- package benefits (???) of sqlude being pushed at q3 2019
- subscription benefits (as told in leaks months and months ago) to increase "on a massive scale"
- buyers of certain pre-order ship packages will get in game benefits including the ability to order other PCs (what??) into action
- criminal gameplay "not supported" in game, penalties for breaking "rules" harsh and severe with real time penalties
- "trolls and griefing" a major focus atm
- "We are locked in a constant and brutal battle against our own players." (???)
- more and more tie ins to sq42 and your SC character
- last server wipes to occur q3 2020 (target q1 2020)
- new gameplay modes coming online at a rapid pace
- all of it needs to be ready (for Squadron) launch
- "Absolutely none of this is ready, in any form. It is ridiculous."
- sweating over next year, as financials tied to 3rd parties have hard deadline
- turbulent still unhappy with offered deal, looking for back monies owed
- 3lateral unable to compromise on quality
- need at least 100,000 sales at $299 to break even
- AMD looking to repartner with Cloud Imperium after gaming management change (lol)
Please stop your FUD. Prisons were the next logical step in crime & punishment development. Any shielding of important whale dollars was entirely incidental.
