    If you are doing the free fly and want a cool gun, armor and in game cash you can use my ref code STAR-PCCM-LHB9



    Nah dog I'm good. No Scam Citizen for me.
    How is it a scam? I would really love to see the facts you have to back that up.

    Well the devs tout one big flowing connected persistent universe as a server but in reality it's just a bunch of instanced zones. That's like, lying or something.
    Lying and mis-leading backers is a time honored tradition for this studio, so much so their fans actually defend the practice in the name of whatever it takes (or however long it takes) to get the game they dream for.

    Server meshing is explained pretty thoroughly and it is not implemented as CIG has not quite figured it out however, you can fly all over the universe, land enter structures etc and there are no loading screens. So yes, toons may be server hopping and semi-instanced but it is pretty seamless. 

    I think the point you were trying to make is the game is limited right now to 50 per server and that would be correct and unfortunate. We have to wait until server meshing is finished to see if that can change. I am not smart enough on that technology to say one way or the other if it will be the answer to all the issues and limited servers. At any rate, it's not a lie at all this is one area where CIG is pretty upfront about things.

    If you want a new idea, go read an old book.

    In order to be insulted, I must first value your opinion.

    Ohh yes, more wild conjecture from the ignorant.

    Unfortunately you can't just go on kickstarter 
    Actually you can, anyone can, just like publishers can pitch games to shareholders to get funding or go on E3 stage and showcase fake demos and trailers of games to incite pre-orders. It's up to backers and gamers to choose their poison.

    Now here's Pingo The Penguin for the emotional support:

    Who know. They'll just blame poor performance on the claim that you need a super mega rig to play as opposed to their poorly optimized game.

    Unfortunately you can't just go on kickstarter and make a bunch of promises you cannot keep. You can't say "we need this many dollar bills to make this happen," and then not come through. $4 million is a lot of money to be saying things like "we haven't figured it out yet," for 10 years. I am proud of you for sticking up for a game that you want to support but there comes a time when you gotta call devs on their bullshit.
    The devs aren't holding up their end of the deal. We aren't the ones making an incomplete vision; they are. Go tell them.
    Yeah, it's still in alpha so, again, you got a fact or two you want to throw in there or nah? Yes, it has taken and it will take a lot of time to complete but it is not a scam and you can't put a fact out there to prove it is. Of note, your opinion, does not equal fact, just you know in case no one eve mentioned that to you.
