Ohhh, so that's what CIG means by "persistence".

Opposition is the means to grow our Faith like a weed. And when the Day oftbh, if I believed the claims that SC backers don't read this thread, I wouldn't post either. But they just can't resist...and comedy needs an audience.
Apart from persistently falling through the scenery...there's not a lot else
I did...but then again... I like mining, it's what I've done in space games since Jumpgate...or I could just have paid for another completely pointless ship, no difference really except I actually use this one for something I like doing where the actual mechanics of the mining gameplay is quite well thought out and technically challenging. It works too...and if the never appearing year cometh when Ci¬G actually complete at least part of a gaming loop, it'll suit me just dandy
Heads up to any Jumpgate players...
Quantar miners rock! ⛏

Or, and i know i'm going out on a limb here, you could not have bought any more ships.
To be fair, they worked really hard to get rid of some of the persistence, like the seemingly endless saga of the Olisar rotating rings that kept not rotating… or at least not rotating smoothly… or in sync with their textures… or not around the correct axis… or in the correct direction… or around the correct object.Apart from persistently falling through the scenery...there's not a lot else
Many months of studious bug fixing got rid of that defining fixture of the game.
Of course...but that wasn't realistically happening at the time the prospector was released, like I mentioned, I like mining...or I'd have spent the cash on Hellion... or spent the same on yet more tools for the garage that I don't really need.
I'm not rich by any means, I have a budget to fritter away on computer bits and software or motorbikes as I see fit...and there's not a lot of games being released this time of year I really fancy... I have all the bikes I will ever ride too. Sold one on Saturday for 300% pure profit except for the oil and grease I got under my nails...Ci¬G got exactly none of that
What it comes down to generally is that I completely ignore any political agenda or third party opinion as to why I should like or dislike Star Citizen and just enjoy and share the bits I do like on here and have a good moan about the bits I don't

I too try to enjoy it but at the moment this .. pre-alpha demo of a game actively fights me from playing testing it. I'd happily load up people in the turrets of my ship and go and blast pirates for fun and profit, but that's definitely not happening due to a long string of technical issues. I'd happily do some space trucking for profit (and not so much fun to be honest..) but that's also become quite daunting due to HUD / MFD becoming unresponsive, buggered hangars and ATC.. So at the moment it's kind of a screenshot generator, provided you can hide the hideous graphical glitches that also run rampant. I am not a screenshot person (forced myself to do some on DW2.. but that enthusiasm didnt last) so that's a 5 minutes gameplay time here, and yeah i am not interested in repeating the train commute either.
One of the hopes i had for Star Citizen was to have a similar level of realism (it's not much to ask, we are talking about a 15-20 year old game here) and having those huge haulers basically move like real world freighters, so ponderously and mostly in straight line..
Oh boy i remember escorting those huge cargo haulers from Quantar, since weight was realistic a cargo full of Palladium was so darned heavy it had to flip around and burn full thrust to brake on quite a few hundred kilometers before coming to a stop.. Fun times when they were approaching stations

Oh boy...more newbies turning Olisar into a re-enactment of the battle of Leyte gulf...Kamikazes 'R Us
Yup - the free fly events are the perfect opportunity to see just how many newbs you can squish between the platform and whichever new jpeg they are frantically trying to get into.
IF the ladders and ramps don't get them first, of course

Well another year has past by for me and I have made it to 63 Still no game I see and prospect of one before I am 64 seem remote.
2012 is such a long time ago as well.

I think my account got deactivated following my refund, is it worth signing up again for the free fly??
You should. The best PR Cloud Imperium can do is letting people try out the latest build.
If you can, try to stream or record video so others can see how much progress they've made.

I'm in for the lulz. Besides, I hear they've got trains now - a free fly and a free ride. 8)
Hmm.... will think about it. The experience last time thought was terrible.
Yup, the more people providing actual unedited videos of actual gameplay the better we can evaluate the progress and state of the game.
These are some pretty new and interesting uses and interpretations of “best” and “PR” that I have never come across before…
Unedited gameplay videos beat concept sales and theorycrafting.
What's happening now is much better than any statement involving the perpetual future-tense including "they plan on..." or "they will..."

Twitch or VOD's on Twitch. More unedited video of this than you could watch in a lifetime.
