The only polished aspect are ship models (i.e. the main source of income).
Only the looks are polished. Also only the expensive models get love from the developers. For example both starter ships are somewhat broken in 2.0. You clip trough them, when you try to enter them. The Aurora sometimes sinks into the pad when spawned.

The only single seater which works without major bugs is the $180 (or so) Hornet fighter, because that is the ship the developers use themselves for testing. For the same reason it's also the fastest animation-wise from entering with a single keypress to lift-off.

I didn't even mention the Cutlass disaster.

Sure, and the next weeks/months will show the pace with which they can improve on this basis. I'm just saying that there is a lot to improve if the advertised quality and quantity is to be reached.
If I know my Christ Roberts right, they will redo and overhaul everything again after the big DX12 engine rewrite. Basis or foundation is something, that doesn't exist in the vocabulary of our visionary. You will see.
 
The December Livestream is happening in some hours; here's the conversion: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20151216T19&p1=1440

I usually watch CIG content trough Baron's livestream, cause why not: http://www.twitch.tv/badnewsbaron ;)

I think the CIG developer that pokes on this thread already replied you this question, but you seem to on purpose keep hitting the same key.

The glass is half full! The glass is half full!
 
New on the CIG ~~ Star Citizen Conspiracy Theories: CIG only fixes the bugs of the most expensive ships! :D

(even though the most expensive ones, connie/talis, and any ship with interiors, face the most severe issues xD, nvrmd!)

Do you redesign the faulty gearbox on the Ford that 99 of your customers drive, or the exhaust on the Mercedes that only 1 drives... although you are pretty sure if you fix the Merc you can persuade the owner to buy a BMW cabriolet in the summer...

If those JPEGs are 2500/1250 dollars imagine if Roberts was selling the above?

It would cost:

762195e1666497074ede151e0cbeb39738a411d967572cbbe24b90cf8db6011f.jpg


10 times that probably, because you know, he would need to build a studio to make the cost of development of these prototypes drop in the long term, and the best location for that would be in Beverly Hills :D

PSA for who will watch the Dec. Livestream, there's MASSIVE Star Wars Spoilers on the Twitch Chat, hide it at all costs! I will watch it like less than 24h from now, Internet won't ruin it again, not this time! :D

Or see it here: http://www.twitch.tv/badnewsbaron once it starts goes full screen, all SW stuff is removed by the bots. :)

It's good that I never look to chats of twitch streams. People just have to click on "hide chat" option in the config button (for the sake of keeping the sanity too) :D
Thanks to let us know.

Do you know how long will take so they start? Nevermind... just started.

Watching these livestreams and the effort that the devs shown, probably underpaid, definitely makes me sad for them, considering that all their effort has been ruined by short-sighted/amateur people like Sandi/Lesnick and an egomaniac like Chris Roberts.

Regarding the livestream, I noticed that when they zoom out the ship (don't remember the name) it appears more a hand-weapon (rifle) of alien or futuristic style, than a ship. And it makes me LOL that we are still talking about and watching earlier concept designs of ships (sold by outrageous prices 3 years ago).

I am curious. At what point does it stop being funding and start being just regular business revenue?

Most of the ship packages seem to be "gameplay speed up" DLC like the ones you'd see in Assassin's Creed or something similar.
I usually consider that once your DLC shop is open for business you're not funding anymore, you have, in some form, released the game.

CMDR CTCParadox

80 million ago when they past the fully funded mark. Oh right sorry, they forgot about taxes, so 77 million.

You can use the pop-out Player (In the options), so you have a small window with just the screen.
 
2.1 is indeed still aiming for next week, that is cool! :D

Chris Roberts "God Damnit don't buy so many ships! We need to get some questions!"
Well that's something i never expected to hear!

The Javelin is coming along nicely.

I got O____o that ship is huge, the interiors are amazing, just when that part of the living quarters, the amounts of beds, i have no idea how many you will have inside that Persistent Capital ship, but that's huge :D
Another ship that after all is not a JPEG like some love to claim eheheh
