or $10 to access.
Most players would trade 30k's for desynch. Desynch is really only a big issue for pvp. So if you want to do pvp, now is not a good time to try out SC.

That is a particularly cruel retainer :/
For sure, but it seems trade at scale is still pretty borked purely in terms of supply / demand.
So that kinda leaves SC as just a mining, box carrying, flakey PvE simulator at the mo. With bonus staring wistfully out of cargo holds

You don't need to be concierge to access the 1st wave PTU, a one off $10 subscription gets you in these days.
It used to be like that years ago...ETF (after it was formed), then 1st wave was concierge only, $20 Imperator subbies 2nd wave or later, $10 Centurion subbies 3rd wave or later then general peasants final PTU phases. I preferred it like that...it used to focus the testing a lot more than it is now. PTU phases were also a bit longer as required...especially ETF.
Still marketing at work of course, but there are now a lot more subbies than there used to be...they get decent perks and a ton of in game cosmetic stuff too...unlike us poor concierge lot...seemingly, we're now the peasantry

My apologies, only need a $10 (a month, presumably?) subscription for access to the test server of a paid-for alpha game. 
The game is extra, if anyone was curious. All monies go into developing the game.
I'm sure that Youtuber that started posting videos 3 days ago and already has 5 videos up, exclusively about SC, is just a gamer that paid to gain access.

Something I wasn't aware it was possible, don't know if it's new. You can put all scrap metals from derelict missions in your cargo and transport them. I though they were only local objects with no real existence but in fact they are all real entities managed by the server. For now, it's of no use to collect them, you can't sell them. Technically, there is enough here to make a T0 salvage mechanism if CIG choose the simplest way to do it. It just lack the possibility to sell the scrap on the cargo's grid at a terminal, which exist already for boxes you find in derelict.
If it was just $10 to get access to a separate test environment, I’d be tempted to get it… assuming I bought into SC again, of course. I’ve always believed it’s my responsibility to test my particular combination of hardware, drivers, and software prior to a major update.a one off $10 subscription gets you in.
$10 a month? No. Just no.
From another forum.
Ah the role up finger emote, always a good way to start ones interaction with a random player you see.
Ever ended up being on the run for 4hrs with an eventual CS level 5 after your mate ran somone over at an outpost because that guy gave you the finger?

Interesting… salvaging wrecks for materials for assembly, repair, production, or trade has been in Space Engineers pretty much since it was in Alpha. Maybe in another 10 years, Star Citizen will be able to catch up.Something I wasn't aware it was possible, don't know if it's new.

And? I've seen enough. It looks good. Oh wait, now i've said it looks good is it ok that i haven't seen it in game? Really Ant, i made no comment about how good it looked, i said it took as much effort as a AAA game, which is what a CIG dev said. Perhaps you should direct you're ire towards the dev that said that?
Go and read what he actually wrote. Here, i'll quote him.
Yup, still as scammy (well, i'd say scummy) as ever.
Oh yes, its alpha, how could i forget?
An alpha that some will say is already the best game ever when its being praised. But once the criticism starts, its shields up, faithful to their stations, ITS ALPHA!
I'm not disputing it can be fun, but the way some people talk about the game, they talk about it like it could be a released product, unwilling to acknowledge anything wrong with the game, blaming others, blaming goons, blaming hardware, but never ever blaming the game or CIG.
All i can say is the game the day releases (if that day ever comes), you're going to have to find a new defense other than ITS ALPHA, because SC by its nature is a massive complex beast and will never deliver on even half of what has been promised (and i feel i can say that with absoloute certainty), and even if it is both objectively and subjectively a good game, it is going to get criticism anyway. Its the nature of the beast.
A bit of tin foil hatting going on there I suspect...but...OK. I already agreed it was a marketing tacticMy apologies, only need a $10 (a month, presumably?) subscription for access to the test server of a paid-for alpha game.

Pathfinder: Kingmaker is good because EDO is bad!
The subbie scheme is drop in drop out... a one off $10 or $20 sub... which quite a few folk do depending on what the included ship of the month is for that month or various subscriber perks are. There are annual or recurring subscription packages if you want or like that kind of thing, I used to pay for annual imperator subs at one point...now I do what everyone else does and just sub for a month when I feel like it. I like some of the subbie perks...especially the cosmetics. As concierge...we get naff all except for automatic wave 1 PTU access plus automatic ship of the month...it's normally a ship I already own so apart from cosmetic stuff, there's little point for me to pay out for recurring or annual subs

Let me rephrase what you said
Some SC players are taggued with a "biased/cultist opinion about the game" here
Go look at recent posts from Susanna, Mole, and sovapid. Do you see them being tagged as being biased/cultists? Perhaps if you look you will find their posts being liked by the skeptics here.
Do you know why they get likes instead of being tagged?
Because they talk about the game realistically. Because they don't go charging to CIG's defense when someone says something bad about the game. Because they are willing to acknowledge issues with the game.
Think about it
What specifically do you object to regarding my last "review"?
Here's another review i made of the game not long ago on the refund sub in response to someone who asked about CIG and the history of the game. I'll quote it so you don't have to sully your computer with reading the refund sub!
Here's the link anyway, just in case you want to stick it to the man by downvoting me

Exactly, you can treat it as paying $10 to get into the PTU earlier. You can even set a sub as a one month thing.
That said, it is not worth it to get a week or so earlier.
I've read your reponse about the scammy question. But it lacks the part about the real progress because :
A : you don't want to give positive infos about SC, only the negative one because your opinion on the game is biased
or
B : as you don't play the game, you don't really know if the alpha has progressed or not, therefore your opinion on the game is biased
