Derek. All you did was destroy a soda machine. Not fleece morons for every dime that you could. Think bigger. :)
I missed this story.
Sounds like a Coke-fueled rampage took place.
There is no upgrade path unfortunately. You can pick up UCCE 2.0 (2015) on Steam for $9.99 though.
Yeah, I know, right? I’ve been doing it wrong this whole time
Not true. It’s an urban legend based on a story cooked up by Take Two right before they shipped my game without my permission, and for which I later took legal action. Ryan Brant, the CEO at the time, went on to become a convicted felon.
I heard from the soda machine’s family that it was actually much more serious than this. In fact, Ben Affleck now says he was told what happened from the soda machine itself much earlier, and wishes now that he had stood up and done something, instead of trying to suppress it.
Hah, you were duckfacing before there was any duckface. You’re the original!
(not a praise)
I heard you called the family of the soda machine and said it knew what it was getting into when it got into Coke. Then forgot its name. Hey dude, I’ve been around since the beginning. ;) I’m trying to remember if I reviewed BC for CGW or CGM/CGS+ way back when…
I’m surprised they aren’t charging to watch it at home, like Blizzard’s “virtual ticket” scam.
At least the virtual ticket gives you a mount. (And other goodies.)
It was CGM :)
New sooper seekrit leak from CR himself! Thanks to Mr. X for the direct link:
"Star Citizens!
After much deliberation, nay, soul-searching, I have decided that the world is simply not ready for the release of Star Citizen/Squadron 42/Whatever. Thanks to the outright lies and persecution of the mainstream media, I have decided to withdraw development of Star Citizen from the current 97 studios from which it is being (rapidly, I might say) developed, to consolidate development in our newest development studio location, Camp Tiger’s Claw, located in beautiful Guyana.
I have encouraged all of our developers to relocate to this new studio location, also known as Robertstown, where the advantages of a centralized management will soon be made clear to all. However, this isn’t all. CSI will soon announce the availability of actual vacation packages to Robertstown, allowing our most dedicated customers to completely immerse themselves in the world of Star Citizen! (Available 2022).
Sincerely,
Rev. Chris Roberts."
Was that the review with the Blue Screen photo, saying that it should have been part of the cover art ?
LOL!!! We’ve been down this road before :)
Actually, I foresee the scenario where, after the establishment of Robertstown in Guyana, you’ll be invited down in a private Cessna to view the “astounding progress” CSI has made on the game, now being developed in its new environment. Unfortuately, Derek, you’ll be gunned down by CSI whales. After that, Chris will direct everyone in Robertstown toward the free soda machines, now filled with cyanide-laced diet beverages.
It’s a fucking tragedy, really. All those CSI employees and whales…
For as long as you and I have been around, and pretty much taking the piss out of anything lol-worthy, that’s not even as far-fetched as it sounds because whatever happens with this shit-show, you could meld into the above scenario.
Exhibit A:
So CIG had a panel at TwitchCon. Yes, it was cringe-worthy and immediately forgettable.
BUT there was some hilarity-worthy part.
Lando says the “game is practically finished”. Nobody knows what he even means, but let’s just let our imaginations run wild as we try to process which of these he meant:
-
3.0 is finished and ready to release
-
Star Citizen is finished and ready to release
-
Star Citizen is finished and the dream is dead and over
I’m going with the Freudian slip that he actually meant #3
GAH, “For Ever.”
Have we stooped to posting fake news in this thread too now? I don’t mind the news on Star Citizen, but please.
What’s wrong with fake news?
