It's their Roadmap to Riches.
There was a 'leak' quoted on here a while ago (maybe from The Agent?) that said something like:
'We cant release a RoadMap to the public because the backers will hold us to it and enforce penalties.'
Meaning they have 2 RoadMap, one for backers and one for public, or that it won't be any use at all and never will be. Ever since then nothing I have seen has contradicted that. They still trying to hide information and avoid any dates, deadlines or certainty. Nothing a backer can hold them to.

Is it on the roadmap?
Enforce penalties how? Backers have no say. They can't release a roadmap (mind you: "roadmap" - not a busification scheme that Direktor Zylon plans) because failing to deliver endangers the cash intake from the gullibers. The more they fail on delivery, the more sceptic the gullifools become.
"Star Citisn't" - the only game where a professional actress as PR officer is replaced with a notorious liar. I guess the handbags were nice and all but she couldn't take it anymore. Or is she just that bad an actress?
The quote mentioned investors possibly holding them to account, not backers
That makes more sense.The quote mentioned investors possibly holding them to account, not backers
I think you need to read 'investors', not 'backers'. That's what the leak was about.
Edit: damn, ninja'ed by Mole!
The handbag lady was head of marketing...the only noteable PR thing she ever did was to slag off concierge backers live on video. If I recall correctly, she called us all 'entitled whiners'

How dare you give money and expect something in return!
That was about the gist of it...at the time, she was in charge of concierge support (we get a speshul hotline so we can whine direct). She was
All in all, the nicest thing I can say about the handbag lady is that she's a properly nasty piece of work...and that's me being conservatively nice.
She's the type that if you took her home to meet your mum, she'd take one sideways glance at her, slap you and say very quietly whilst shaking her head, "Failed" as she shuts the door in your face. I know mine would...been there...done that

But Sandi told me that my 10 grand pledge is investment!The quote mentioned investors possibly holding them to account, not backers
The longer I capitalize on that, the better would be the return!
I am investing here!
Let's face it. It's rather "de-capitalised" with the 10 grand. Loss directly incured on equity.
You don't understand long-term investment, FUDster!
Does not that require more than one star system SC has?
Is it actually shown as such, or are they just saying it is?
Is this the CIG plan where they just randomly add vehicles which they think will sell? Apparently with few concerns about how the game mechanics and tech will function, or will mesh with the rest of the game?
If so, I believe that plan is ongoing

Forgive me, I forget that backers and investors are 2 different things in CIG, never been done before they the same thing everywhere else, and that 'Pledgers' either are or arent or do or dont exist depending on POV. Yes I mean the legally enforceable contracted Investors not the legally enforceable 'backers' / non-investors / (not) donators who just gave money to the project for legally enforceable returns. (I think The Calders initial investment and the bank loans were the relevant ones at that time being referred to as the Investors, mainly the Calders)
Basically the people expecting a Cash ROI are being told one thing.
The people expecting a game ROI are being told another and cant be told more as the first group will hold them to any deadlines even though the second group wont.
So the RoadMap can't be pure fantasy anymore as the game people are used to getting and it all being complete nonsense and changing all the time to get more money, because the cash people will use any info to hold them to account and measure against it. Something they dont want and arent used to, thats the problem.
