While most backers aren't posting publicly about refunds, sources say CIG has seen a flurry of refund activity this past month. That predates the latest fiasco. And most are the highly roller/believers.

I guess they know something others don't.

Star Citizen isn't a game. It's a TV show about a bunch of characters making a game. It's basically "This is Spinal Tap" - except people think the band is real.

CIG has no part in this. It's between the buyer and the seller. He got scammed. It happens.

As the seller is legally allowed to sell digital items, if he [seller] hadn't reclaimed the account from CIG, then the buyer would have a case if this was CIG not allowing him the account.

Since the seller scammed the buyer, by reclaiming the account, the buyer has NO recourse.


So this individual could technically do this over and over which is a decent amount considering how little effort is put in. Chris created the biggest scam in fund raising history and like minded individuals are reaping the benefit as well.

Yeah, he was one of the original investors who was in on the ground floor. He saw the light back in 2015; and got his money out.

These guys can't get me out of their head - where I live, rent free. It's unbelievable.


Of course, they compare this to Line Of Defense, which is a completely different game from Star Citizen. And even so, using an HAIS suit, a player can drop launch from inside a ship or station in orbit, to the planet surface below.

I don't even need to bring Universal Combat (a far more superior game) into this, as that would be unfair to Star Citizen. But in UC, you can in fact take out surface targets from space using Orbit To Surface missiles. And you can follow the missile right to the point of detonation. Not to mention the R.A.N.D.O.M planet killer missile which also launches from space and destroys an entire planet.

:emot-lol:

Apparently gaming has been stagnant for two decades!!!

Just incredible.  It's amazing how much not only reality, but history itself, has been completely rewritten by these freaks in order for their beliefs to become valid.  Gaming is in a place now I barely even dared to dream as a kid, and these assholes are retconning reality itself like it's a Spiderman reboot.

There are a lot of old gamers who really think that everything released after year 2002 is garbage...
 So now they are easy pray for "Savior of PC gaming" and also add nostalgia for WC series and you have +10k Whale in the end...

They are - literally - trying to will the game of their dreams, into existence.

Distract the masses with "busy work", maybe they won't notice we don't have any money.
