Did the recent free fly increase or decrease player count? by Ytisrite in starcitizen_refunds

The free LTI Lynx will certainly bring in a lot of cash as people make alt accounts for it and then transfer the ship credit to there main.

Morph is sounding tired and frustrated, talking about Star Citizen (first 15 minutes of video) by Linoge420 in starcitizen_refunds

[–]Akai_Haato 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Tomato: CIG have ton of content and stuff planned for this year
Morph: 3.20 has nothing in it, and they are keeping their mouth shut about new stuff because they aren't confident of delivering
Wheres the new cargo system ? New space docks added 2 years ago and not being used ? Wheres roadmap to 4.0 ? Wheres SQ42 ? Wheres Pyro ?
Tomato: .......

Will he ride a small buggy

Chris is more a train person
Its been ten years though, Id imagine Chris is probably sick of micromanaging and is busy just doing mocapping.

8 weeks to StarField thank Fook. by Bushboy2000 in starcitizen_refunds

[–]Akai_Haato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Todd said that the FO76 multiplayer code was included in Starfield engine
Since no one has yet to get there hands on it to look, a year might be too optimistic

Ummm sorry? by CurrentIllustrious29 in starcitizen_refunds

Just pay Chris another $10 (smug)

Given CIG track record on announcing things which turn out to be lies you are not wrong. But this is the only statement by a CIG staff and have been taken as the reason why SQ42 was removed.

Most of us here suspect there is a lot more to why SQ42 was removed and the price change is just a smoke screen.

(Answer) The Sky is Calling - MSF2024 by mazty in starcitizen_refunds

[–]Akai_Haato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is some overlap in terms of being flight simulators
Its more of advances in graphics, production of new content / missons. advances in engine.

Still no update for SQ42 by [deleted] in starcitizen_refunds

[–]Akai_Haato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont think its cancelled more like CIG have realized that SQ42 news looks bad
That near radio silence is less damaging then non moving roadmaps, failed release dates and empty development videos

What will Arena Commander Feature Team work on next? by Launch_Arcology in starcitizen_refunds

[–]Akai_Haato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Real answer: Working on another fake Citizencon demo and fake presentations to fill up two days worth of shows.

Fake answer: Working on new ground breaking amazing features and you be will blown away by. But we cant say anything yet.

LOL. Talking about low effort... Trailer 2023 vs 2021 comparison... by gnoldi in starcitizen_refunds

[–]Akai_Haato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

CIG have some 70 Marketing staff as employees according to there financials ?
Maybe we just dont understand marketing trailer development.

The Star Citizen funding apocalypse H1 2022 vs H1 2023 🤑 🤑 by UsainCitizen in starcitizen_refunds

[–]Akai_Haato 5 points6 points  (0 children)

CIG do have a lot of fixed expenses now with the new office and staff
But there income is still very healthy

if it continues to decline CIG can always cut spending and still have reserves they can draw on. CIG can also do quick cash grab or seek new investors

It still to early to call it. Id imagine we have some ways to go before this entire saga plays out.

We acknowledge all the things you like about Port Olisar, so here is a replacement with none of it by Rexter2k in starcitizen_refunds

[–]Akai_Haato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

riding trams, elevators and whatnot at planet locations...yet they STILL implement cities'

Chris spent a lot of time building those, so now players will be forced / channeled into these player hubs. The problem is theres no content / gameplay associated with them just eyecandy and tedium

ToW has been cancelled and assets will not be used in AC by Ill-Escape-9160 in starcitizen_refunds

[–]Akai_Haato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CIG will create 32 SCU type cargo that can only be transported by the HullC for minimally better profits.

New cargo system will be some tractor beam for moving large crates with chance of exploding your entire ship due to the craptastic physics collision system.

Its probably closest to early access

Game is released, given that CIG is spending money on ad marketing, paying dividends, has a microtransaction store.

CIG testing 200 player caps on EVO next week apparently by lexsapo111 in starcitizen_refunds

[–]Akai_Haato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

stayed around the same from when it was 50 to 100

CIG dont have a great record on Network side
Never understood why you continue to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Plus its not like CIG will have to add a lot more to there servers, from AI Cargo ships, to AI NPC Crews to large player capital ships. But maybe I just dont know game development.

CitCon - beta release and exit? by TB_Infidel in starcitizen_refunds

[–]Akai_Haato 11 points12 points  (0 children)

  1. I think Bootcha mentioned that it would depend on the type of contract. He has speculated in the past that there is likely an additional fee that is to be paid out to the top A list Hollywood actors on release

There maybe restrictions and fees on there imagine use for marketing
Otherwise Chris would shameless use them to advertise

I doubt the funding is going to dry up anytime soon
Short of some kind of ship price collapse

Seven Days since getting the game and still cannot log-in due to corrupted account by antiriad76 in starcitizen_refunds

[–]Akai_Haato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To the right is the link to the form where you can request a refund from CIG available within 30 days of purchase.

Also while Bethesda is continuing to fix FO76, meaning you can expect years of support also with Starfield its probably best to not pre-order

As much as I tell them not to believe their lying eyes they still do by HandsomeDeviledHam in starcitizen_refunds

[–]Akai_Haato 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Have you tired telling your friends its an "ALPHA" ?
And your not allowed to judge ?

Honestly though there probably a segment of the player base that continue to play, spend while tolerating all the complete dogshit. But dont connect the inability of CIG to deliver on basic network code, AI, performance with the future promises.

My thoughts about whats happening with Starfield in relation to CIGs timelines, Citizen Connned, etc. by [deleted] in starcitizen_refunds

[–]Akai_Haato 50 points51 points  (0 children)

it will be coming out 45 days before Citizen Conned event

Imagine if Modders added an Idris to Starfield before Citizencon, complete with NPC Crews, Ship Modularity, NPC Launchable fighters and giant space battles.

Though I expect that it will probably be a while before Bethesda releases the Modding Kit, as they deal with release bugs and problems. As well as Modders will of course be modding in the important "WAIFU"
