Unfulfilled promises still. Didn't they say they were going to add stuff without changing the deadline?

Yes, they didn't fulfill the promise of the original release date, but it was impossible after people kept giving them more money to add more to the game. I didn't see them saying they'd add all of that stuff without changing the deadline.

but it was impossible after people kept giving them more money to add more to the game.

If it was impossible with more money, it was impossible with less money. Development could have been focused on getting the originally planned product out the door at the specified time first, then complete the reach goals.

If what was impossible with more money?

It is awfully quiet since they came back from holidays. Hopefully they are fixing bugs in silence and we'll get decent build before the end of this month. Other scenario is a bit grim so I'll skip mentioning it for the time being.

Have you tried 2.1? It's already way better than 2.0. If they fix the occasional FPS drops then it'd be completely playable.

Because, again, it's a different game when you have 2 million and when you have 100 million. It's like saying "oh, GTA's racing game mode didn't come out 4 years before GTA did, if it's impossible to put out that racing game mode with 5 million then it's impossible with 500 million."

As far as I'm aware, GTA devs didn't promise to make a racing game.

Star Citizen devs didn't promise to make a racing game either.

Yeah, 2.1d is decent build. Tons of bugs left to be fixed but camera shaking seems to be fixed and most common client crashes seem to be eradicated. Also performance, still not great but much better than before. Hopefully next patch won't magically nullify improvements they made with this PTU patch.

so, this is a thing.

That picture of Roberts as Scarface always cracks me up.

The posts there have a very LLJK vibe to them, wouldn't be surprised if it's a SomethingAwful-hosted subreddit.

Oh and looks like all threads are started by the same guy. Leshma-level obsession.

[Leshma]

At least it is just one obsessed dude.

Yeah it's just one guy posting, weird crap.
