You've obviously been indulged in jeering cynicism for too long and cannot see the forest for the trees.
You need to get exorcised immediately, bring the holy water!

Apparently very or we'd be seeing them already to prove us wrong.
I think that's rather fallacious suggesting that Elite isn't trying to be something great by bringing it up as a 'pro' for star citizen.
So how does the SC mission system work?
- are there hand-crafted missions (and if so, how many of them will there be?)
- are they procedurally generated (I don't think I've seen any reports of anyone working on this? and this would obviously be a massive undertaking for a AAA title with voice acting/mo-cap on everything)
Given that a system somewhat like ED is 'not hard', then SC is clearly going to be a lot better, so explain *why*.
Is there a document we can read on these missions and the progress?

The old fallback: yeah it's bad NOW but just wait for version [insert patch number here] then you'll see! You'll all seeeeee
Friend, the star citizens have been promising things will change with the next version for years. It ain't happening, not at any kind of reasonable pace. Clownshoes Imperium Gaming have shown themselves to be incompetent every step of the way.
When can we expect 3.0, and what will it contain, do you think? Because lord and saviour Christ Roberts (praise be) says 2.6 will be out this year "hopefully before 19th December" but they've shown nothing of it so far, and their hyped anniversary stream is apparently going to focus heavily on ships (BUY BUY BUY, CASH ONLY). And given that the most progress they made for 11 out of 12 months this year was the addition of shopping and a couple of ships, I wouldn't hold out much hope for 3.0 to change things drastically.

The hilarious part? That person claims to have been 14 when they backed. Now they're an "18yr old girl". Note that at 14, "she" couldn't possibly have known anything about Chris Roberts, let alone Wing Commander.
"She" (all evidence says it's a dude; Goons are on the case) appeared over on SA a few days ago after I tweeted her response and thread. It's glorious. Basically, this 18 yr took the $6K give by her family for her Confirmation (it's a religious thing) - and put it in JPEGs. Because she has faith in Chris, and loves Sandi.
The posts are truly hilarious to behold. And needless to say, the Goon reception is the stuff of legend.
Here is a sample:
Q:
Deloria:
I think the reason we're not seeing gameplay updates for trading & piracy etc. is because they have absolutely no idea themselves how it is going to work.
How will trading be balanced?
The economy is supposed to run on NPC's and players creating and ferrying the goods around. Ships that can carry 98 000 tons of cargo will be able to strip a station in a couple of runs. They will also make so much money so as to break the economy.
How will piracy work?
Shoot ships and they drop cargo? (Elite 1984)
Disable ships and board them? (No solo piracy)
How do you catch ships in Quantum Drive?
How do you stop ships running away?
How do you scoop cargo?
Is this still the plan for mining? https://www.robertsspaceindustries.com/comm-link/transmission/14522-Star-Citizen-Careers-Mining
How much of that is done? Can we mine solo?
Bounty hunting? Exploration?
All the above should have been worked out BEFORE the first line of code was written, that way you can design the ships and other mechanics to work better within their intended role. As yet we only have some pretty pictures to look at and we're nowhere near a game.
CIG is concentrating on the minutia and making more ships because they know how to do that, In my opinion they don't have a clue how the rest will work.
Actually - that's one of the big indicators of "workplace stress" - concentrate on the easy small things and ignore the big difficult stuff (been there, done that).
She seems quite reasonable to me. Maybe she's coming across as very naive, but to me she's just a person with a positive attitude and a lot of money to lose.
He worked on QA and level design on NMS; and says that's the same thing he's going to be doing in Star Citizen.

Wow so sad 6300$ spend by a youth not grown up and the parents didnt do anything about it ?
Otherwise could be a way to get the money back, but maybe there is no interest to do so. The amount of Confirmation money shows must be a rich or huge Family (or booth).
That guy from NMS joining SC?
sounds like:
Frying pan -----------> fire....very hot hell fire.
Um...
How the hell can a supposed minor transfer that sort of money online in the first place?
:S

Now that is one accurate bar chart representation of the poll outcome! Must be the famous patented 64bit accuracy ©by CIG.
