I think he based it on Voyager , yes . <| sep |> Which and why not <| sep |> Looking for a GA shirt from Boston date preferably black long sleeve sz LXL <| sep |> they are aiming for the end of 2016 So not set in stone . it ' s been revealed that they haven ' t even finished shooting the motion capture for the release For some of the npc ' s that give you quests . Virtually no one in the community believes 3 . 0 will make its 2016 date . Because they learn from previous experiences . From this and numerous other examples we might conclude that Chris is either very naive about these release estimates , as he misses them broadly and consistently . Yes which is why he ' s constantly saying so and has stopped giving set dates . And these backers have been assured that they will be rewarded with the best deals on ships . The best price for backing the game earlier in contrast to others . CIG has begun to offer cash only discounts on ships 1 ship as a experiment which failed horribly and was met with absolute fucktons of negativity . Likely not to be seen again but indeed a very controversial thing if they continue to do so . It is hard to know whether these recent changes are motivated by funds drying up or merely a need for a bigger warchest Groups outside the community are worrying about this and as always are trying to stir up more controversy and falsefied information . In addition to all this , early 2016 saw the release of a new ToS from CIG that was quite bravely anticonsumer . Rules that state they are allowed to deny someone acces to the game if they use it ' s contents against the company , bully , misbehave , threaten , hack or attack it ' s users and developers . the new ToS completely denied the opportunity for a refund regardless of their ability to deliver a product The new ToS was pretty much a direct response to the 1000 s of people who thought they could play the game for 100 hours and then refund it . While this ToS rule raises a lot of eyebrows it wasn ' t as impactfull inside the community because the group that shouted MURDER ! the hardest were the gigantic amounts of hate groups , troll accounts and Derek fucking smart . rdereksmart for all your daily harassment , trolling , attacking , defamation , bullying and stalking . I think a watchdog approach is warrantedIf you don ' t approach a kickstartedcrowdfunded project with a watchdog or carefull , calculated and lightly cynical tone you are a idiot in my eyes .
