Lol, you have no idea!

I will say they have the most hostile/angry forum members.

edit: for clarification, when I've googled stuff and ended up on RSI's forum pages, half the posts are "DEATH TO THE INTERLOPER" if anyone questions anything about the game design lol

The forums are awful. Full of "go-hards" and people who act like children.

Yea, I'm noticing that as well.

In the grand scheme of things, these people make up a small minority of the people who have backed. Most of the time, some a$$hat makes a disgruntled, off the wall thread and all of the replies are people disagreeing with them. I don't generally even look at General Chat unless I want some entertainment. If I want to have a real discussion that isn't poo'd on by crazy internet folk, I go to the subscriber den or Reddit. Reddit is especially nice with their upvote/downvote system.

Yea, I was poking around in General Chat today and you are right it's entertaining. On another note I think it would be great if they just let us look around in space with out DFM until it's ready. My youngest daughter is in an out of my lap wanting me to play.. it's hard to type.. lol

I hope you guys enjoy your $200 ships in a few years when this game gets released.

Mindweaver · Apr 19, 2014

Well I just finished playing around in the hanger using my Oculus Rift.... and it's amazing! It really puts the ship in perspective.

One would assume you didn't back then? And if you have no intention of playing the game, or bringing something positive in the thread, then I don't understand why you came in here to post a funny gif?
All comes down to eye of the beholder my friend, it isn't our place to decide how people spend their hard earned cash.

Star Citizen: the game where fans will pay an extra million bucks for Towels

If you don't like the game or the people who backed it, don't come in the thread and get yourself worked up

Seems odd for someone to actively go into a thread specifically labelled as something they don't like, almost as if you have an agenda.

Hey, a towel is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitch hiker can have. Thanks

At any rate, that was a pretty impressive push at the end for the Alpha slots, eh?

Stop trolling this thread! Last warning..

I don't see how I am trolling. Do you keep up with the Star Citizen news?

https://robertsspaceindustries.com/comm-link/transmission/13812-Letter-From-The-Chairman-42-Million

At $42 million, you unlocked several celebratory goals:

Updated Observist Guide – Additional funding from the $42 million level will go to expanding the website area of the Galactapedia: expect to see holographic ships, items and navigation interface in 3D! Imagine admiring your ships or planning your loadouts right here at the RSI website.

Explorer-class mobiGlas Rig – Every player who backed before we hit $42 million will start the game with their own, visually distinctive mobiGlas “ExoGlas” rig which can be used to access the Observist at any time. I’ve charged the mobiGlas team with a very difficult task: creating a realistic interface that will help keep your affairs in order in an expansive galaxy. It’s almost like building our own in fiction operating system for an imagined future, and it’s very different task than building spaceships. This backer-exclusive mobiGlas kit will come pre-loaded with additional galactic information that new players would ordinarily need to explore or barter to fill out; it’s our way of honoring the information you’ve collected about the Star Citizen universe through the RSI site and community over the past year!

The towel features the UEE logo on one side and an Observist logo on the reverse.

Gladius – The Squadron 42 team will develop an additional fighter for the game, the Aegis Dynamics Gladius-class light fighter. The Gladius will be the first fighter built entirely from concept to CryEngine in the UK! Here’s the official description: The Aegis Gladius is the UEE’s reigning light short-range patrol fighter. A single-seat ship with no room for expansion, the Gladius is fast, maneuverable and capable of punching far above its weight. The main advantage to the design is simplicity: cheap to produce, easy to repair and outfit and quick to train new pilots on. The Gladius is an aging design nearing the end of its life-cycle, although iterative updates have kept it the most nimble fighter in the active fleet.

Towel – And of course, everyone who backs before we hit $42 million will also receive a towel for their hangar. Don’t explore the galaxy without it!

Yes, I do and my warning wasn't just for that post. Your last few posts are all negative posts. If you are keeping up with Star Citizen news as well then you know that it's to help support the game "first" and they are giving you stuff as well. People seem to forget that 42 million dollars isn't a lot of money for a game of this size.

erocker · Apr 19, 2014

***RED ALERT*** Everyone! CALM DOWN! Apparently space sims turn people into hooligans! Case and point = RSI forums... and now here.

Seriously though, let's not argue. No one can hear your screams when I throw you out of an airlock. There are no trolls in space, no more using that dirty word here, or I'll get angry and do something abusive.

NinkobEi said:

I'm in no hurry. I pledged to get the game made, not the ships... Hell, I'll probably end up giving a few of my ships away since I can't fly them all at once. I don't mind if they take their time and do it right.

In other (space sim..ish) related news Freeworlds was just released for Freelancer! I'm getting all over this! Thanks to MTAlex for the heads up! Link to mod: http://www.desura.com/mods/fwtow

It's damn good quality, isn't it? I got mine a few weeks ago and was really surprised at the quality and attention to detail.

Dogfighting looks really awesome. Those graphics mmmm! This was going to have oculus support? I may have to get one just for this game.

It already has it baked in for the hangar module, I'd suspect that the DFM will have it too.

Thanks for that. I only watched the live PAX stream and while it was neat, I was really not happy with the crowd/crashes.

Awesome stuff after that 23 min mark in that video. Can't wait to see the DFM and ultimately, the planetside stuff and boarding. That is what is really drawing a lot of interest from me.

I just fired up Wing Commander Saga again this weekend
