Still a half-assed Crysis mod.

So much irony.

Star Citizen Terms of Service 2/12/15-6.10.16 changes - Album on Imgur Better start a chargeback with your bank ASAP. Don't agree to the new TOS. If you're in Europe and Australia they have to give you a refund. America will require a little more internet lawyering. No need to reply to...

This game is never coming out as promised. They're a fucking MMO that is worried about the bandwidth costs associated with QA-testing.

Man, short memory, huh?

Why is it surprising that a news outlet that isn't tasked with turning a profit would be less beholden to corporate interests?

Anyone who's paid even a little attention to this thing over the last year can see the writing on the wall. They raised over a 100 million dollars and all they're going to end up releasing is a single player, mocap-fest that no one ever asked for. They're running out of money and there are...

They recently transferred a lot of money to the studio making the single player game. It's pretty obvious at this point that the only thing that will see a legit release is the single player game with all of the actors and shit. And that's because Chris Roberts has always wanted to break into...

Elite Dangerous is a legit game. Star Citizen is a ponzi scheme with a terrible physics simulator/tech demo.

That's the point of kickstarter. It was originally a good idea when it was used to help get shit done that couldn't happen otherwise, but now it's just a way for developers to tax diehard fans/morons before the product comes out. I mean, I don't even know how mad you can be at Smed, I'm pretty...

That's just another example. They have been doing this since they released "2.0" or whatever it was called. I don't even remember all of the ridiculous permutations at this point, but they continue to release small iterations of a nonviable game and call it something much bigger while...

Yes, a "game" will definitely come out. It's going to be a massive disappointment to the cult that has sprung up around it, however. As amazing as it is, it looks like that Derek Smart guy has been pretty dead-on with regard to his criticism.

Yep, Smedley's twitter says as much. I don't think they ever needed the KS money, which probably explains how half-assed it was.

Yes, but Star Citizen is a ponzi scheme where the payout is pictures of imaginary spaceships, so I'm not sure that's that big of a compliment.

It's amazing to me that people still think they can get $800,000 from people based on the fact that they made a few shitty images in photoshop and their name was on the original EQ. They had nothing to show on that KS page other than Smedley's dumb face.

Anyone who replies to Joppa with anything but ridicule is a fucking swine. He's part of a fucking scam. Just because it's a little less scammy-seeming now doesn't change the fact that they stole money from a bunch of people to start this whole clusterfuck.

It's pretty obvious why WoW took over when it came out. It was the engine more than anything else. WoW is still the best-feeling MMO ever put out. The movements are so smooth. EQ is clunky as hell. I think if you made a game with EQ's mechanics but WoW's engine it would be pretty popular.

Seriously?

Flawless victory.

This guy just walked up and stuck his dick into a wasp's nest and then got mad when the inevitable happened. EQ really did appeal to a very specific type of crazy.

Maybe he's an Aviak.

Where are these people incubated?

Edit: NM, Convo posted it.

Nirrtix begging Brad to let him come back is priceless.

No such thing.

It would have to be shorter than that. There's probably a lot of stuff that leaves your system after a day or so.

That's the point. In this entire embarrassing episode, there has never been a "game." It's just been a bunch of nebulous statements about macro-level stuff. If anyone needed anymore proof that this is a scam, this latest video is it. They're just trying to produce something that looks like a...

And shame on anyone who's impressed by that video. The fact that they cobbled together some kind of unity frankenstein is irrelevant. MMOs are about the actual game mechanics, and there has been no mention/sign of any over-arching gameplay vision (lol) since this project was announced. Brad has...

I just go to the part where Kyndread posts 100 times in a row multiple times and then edits them away. What a psycho. What are the odds this turns into some Jonestown-style shit?

Exactly. No one on the original team has ever produced any proof that any work actually happened.

The original team was composed of a bunch of people who knew Brad better than anyone here and still thought it was a good idea to hitch their wagon to this clusterfuck without even pretending to exert any energy toward its eventual success. I think it's pretty clear how it would have turned out...

This is a pretty embarrassing troll. I would have hoped you could do a little better considering you have made almost 3k posts on this forum in just over a year. Practice makes perfect! (or not)

The people I was responding to are saying EQ sucked. Not just that Brad sucked. I agree that Brad is a moron who probably had nothing to do with EQ's success.

It only makes you look bad if you're a neckbeard sociopath.

Yeah, what a bunch of losers trying to keep people from giving that degenerate any more money. Get the fuck out.

If they released a new server the original one would become a ghost town. It'd be like Red where people just log in to kill dragons.

Never played Rift, but the reason I liked DAoC was the pvp. I didn't think the idea was generic necessarily, but the mobs/npcs/lore/etc was completely forgettable in a way that EQ's wasn't.

And yes, DAoC was awesome as well, but it was a PVP game that was still pre-WoW, and as such it wasn't really a good example of a modern MMO.

It's irrelevant if things were intended or not. We're talking about whether the game was any good. That's like saying tube amplifiers suck because they sound awesome as a result of the inherent flaws in vacuum tube technology. Leave this thread while you still have a shred of credibility...
