“Dev says”

So it’s not happening then, gotcha

Star Citizen is one of the biggest scams ever in the gaming industry. Stop pumping money into these greedy fucks.

These “scam” comments are getting old.

It’s not a scam in the sense they are deliberately taking your money and not deliver anything in return. I am confident the people at CIG want to create something unique and amazing.

It is a very complex project though and you can argue about if it has been managed properly.

I check this game out once a year maybe, but there are lots of people playing this game daily and enjoying it even in its current alpha state.

In no way in hell is it worth the amount poured into it. Which leads to the only conclusion that the money is being mishandled. Put simpler: it's a scam

After watching all of Sunk Cost Galaxy, no one can convince me it’s not a scam.

It is not a scam. For it to be a scam there has to be a malicious intention.

Those people are incompetent. That is something different.
