  Maybe try the playable part out first before you post parroted information as shallow as a puddle after drizzle?

  To its credit, Star Citizen is neither vaporware nor a scam.

  You can buy access to the game for just $45 USD, and the game is playable to you right now. It regularly receives updates, some minor and some major.

  Vaporware is something that never gets released to the public. Like the Coleco Chameleon. Obviously, Star Citizen is playable right now by anyone that buys access to it.

  A scam is when someone takes your money under fraudulent pretenses. Star Citizen takes your money for access to a space sim game, which is exactly what you get. Its not a scam, just terribly mismanaged with a very slow development pace.

    I had a friend try to sales pitch me on pre-ordering it back in 2012. I said “I’ll just wait for it to release”. Still waiting.

    What about this thread of ships that people paid for that still aren’t available in game?

    robertsspaceindustries.com/…/big-issue-ships-boug…

    Some of them have been waiting for TWELVE YEARS

    That’s a fucking scam.

        Haters going to hate and there is a lot to hate about SC. Dont waste your time arguing with a wall that’s made up its mind without ever even playing the game.
