They just put it up as collateral on a loan
its never coming out.

Never
They had to get a loan because they misuse the 150 MILLION they got

Isn't that the team working on Squadron 42? Aren't they separate from CIG?

>>382371257
Wait, how does this work?
You borrow money to finish a game, and if you can't pay it back, they take ownership over the project?
What good is it to them if it's unfinished?

>>382371976
Source Code, Art Assets, Music, Writing... ETC
If they do make the game and make enough money, they owe ~150% of what they got in Loan, which has to be payed back first.
Pretty penny is pretty.

>>382371976
Well they borrowed money as an advance on a tax credit they will be receiving from the UK government for having one of their three studios there. I'm not sure why the loan requires collateralization of... everything, unless it's a dumbass bet on the british government reneging on tax credits in the wake of brexit.

Their lawyer/co-founder said on their forums that it's a totally standard collateral arrangement, but it sure as shit doesn't sound like one.

>>382370875
2025

>>382372218
If you read it, it goes over that they have less money than the tax credit is worth (which is in the <1M range, so they have less than that)
that is why they have to bring up collateral; they have no guarantee that the game will be made.

nice source derek smart

>>382372447
that money is LONG gone

>>382372447
Yep, and they only have ~950K left.
Wonder where all the money went?
The backing clause says that they only have to spend a "certain amount" of the money the game.
>>382372545
Same legal entity; they all share rights and money pool; Loan applies to all of them

>>382372447
Foudnry 42 is the German sect of CIG, they don't work on Star Citizen. They work on the single player Squadron 42.

>>382371976

Forgot to add in >>382372218 they also claimed they're doing this to get around exchange rates. Like, get the loan in the currencies they need now than lose money on currency exchanges at the end of the year when the pound may have fluctuated some. However this makes absolutely no sense, whoever issued the loan has no incentive on this unless there's interest on the premium, and that interest would need to be better than the lender just buying 5 million pounds worth of american t-bills or something. Which would mean they're probably going to end up paying more money in the long run than if they got their 5 mil tax credit at the end of the year and lost some to currency exchange.

It's total bullshit, they need the 5 mil now, and not at the end of the year, and they're spinning bullshit excuses to make it seem like they're fine.

They're PRETENDING to be making 6 games at once, anon, they're not actually making them. They sold their shit to Amazon and then put it up as a collateral for a loan.

just why the fuck did they start making Squadron 42...who even asked for that? everything was fine up until then, yeah they asked a lot for ships but it was fine..fuck you

It's trying so many different games, with different campaigns at once. It's not gonna work. They should have focused on ONE thing, finish that, and then start talking about expansions.

"Our UK companies are entitled to a Government Game tax credit rebate which we earn every month on the Squadron 42 development. These rebates are payable by the UK Government in the fall of the next following year when we file our tax returns," CIG co-founder and legal counsel Ortwin Freyermuth explained in a forum post.

"Foundry 42 and its parent company Cloud Imperium Games UK Ltd. have elected to partner with Coutts, a highly regarded, very selective, and specialized UK banking institution, to obtain a regular advance against this rebate, which will allow us to avoid converting unnecessarily other currencies into GBP. We obviously incur a significant part of our expenditures in GBP while our collections are mostly in USD and EUR. Given today's low interest rates versus the ongoing and uncertain currency fluctuations, this is simply a smart money management move, which we implemented upon recommendation of our financial advisors."

As for the collateral, Freyermuth described it as "absolutely standard and [pertaining] to our UK operation only." The "prime collateral" on the loan is actually the rebate entitlement itself, he continued, and while the UK-based companies guarantee repayment, the posting of other collateral—which, he noted, "specifically excludes Star Citizen"—"is a formality and nothing else."

"This security does not affect our UK companies’ ownership and control of their assets," Freyermuth wrote. "Obviously, the UK Government will not default on its rebate obligations which will be used for repayment, and even then the UK companies have ample assets to repay the loan."

I still don't believe them that they're getting lower interest than they would lose in currency fluctuation. I don't care about the collateral, that's the part where I think they're lying, and they do in fact need advances.

They're stated purpose is that the pound will continue going up post-brexit decline, and their revenue stream from backers comes mostly in USD, so they'll lose out on exchanges. This doesn't really hold water, because what's in it for the lender if they're going to collect less than the difference in exchange loss RSI would incur by not getting advances. The reality is RSI is going to be paying more in interest on these loans than they'd lose exchanging USD for GBP over the next couple years, and it's likely because they really do need the advance.

You threw money at it two years after the kickstarted succeeded boy you didn't do dick.

How the fuck do you fail to make this game with 150 million? Something fucking shifty has happened. I refuse to believe that every game developer who comes into that much money would be able to resist the urge to take some of it for themselves.

Do you know how much one million dollars is? You could live off of it for the rest of your life. They probably took some of the money for themselves and then just let the game run dry so they could just live on this money they took and not have to worry about making this huge ass fucking game.

Its really not that much in modern aaa market. Some Publishers blow 200mln$ on marketing alone, and while most publishers rarely give out full numbers salaries alone for a staff of well over 300 people would go up 25mln$ a year. 5 years is a lot of time to build up costs.

Yeah nah, fuckface.

The execs will all be on hefty packages. For example, a bank I looked at once - the CEO gets 8 mil a year and the plebs get 50-100k a year depending on years served.

>>382379346
Because Chris and his buddies need to get paid.

>>382379346
CEOs and directors aren't being paid £32k

Yeah it is at the moment, but many people think it's decline has bottomed out and it's going to return to some normalcy over the next 2 years (though probably still diminished from it's pre-brexit state.)

all you did was denote money to a shitty cause

Nice goalpost moving, shitlord. Certainly proved me wrong about things I never claimed ;)

They can't write off interest on this loan as a business expense, and the way they pay these loans back is a tax credit they're already slated to receive in Fall 2018. It won't cover the interest though, so they're losing money in the long run for capital in the short run, which hints at them running out of money right now.

>>382379901
sorry let me correct myself, only half of the game has been put up as collateral towards a loan. happy now?

if 3.0 isn't fun to play then I'll probably stop following this game at all until it's "finished"

but the conspiracy bullshit is really annoying. I get retarded articles like that suggested to me in google because I searched this game before. The fanatical haters are 10x worse and more dangerous to society than any star citizen fan. I hope no one gets hurt.

>>382370875
Never. It is a scam. I don't feel bad the idiots that payed for this garbage, paying for something that doesn't exist .

>>382379332
You payed more for a product than it's worth without even having a right to a refund in case the product can't be delivered.
You in effect donated to a for-profit corporation.
You are the best of goims.

I'm sure there are lots of things he has purchased in life after he starting Star Citizen. Once starting a project does he have to cease ever purchasing stuff for himself? I don't understand.

>>382380168
all i ever hear from star citizen fanboys is how 'fun' the game is to play in its current state. from what i hear they are having a blast in the dogfighting module and the uh... arena shooter module? i dunno what these guys are actually doing in the game because they never post videos or webms of all the 'fun' they are having

They're having fun imagining using those systems to interact with the complete game once it's done.

>>382380407
tbqh I did have genuine fun when I first got into the game because I was into all the flight simulator stuff and I had a joystick and throttle etc.

/vg/ used to post webms all the time but it gradually died because there wasn't much new content to try

they're pretty much changing or remaking everything they've released so far, the ships, the UI, the displays in the cockpit, the balance and weapons, etc. so it's pretty pointless to play it now and pretend you're a pilot or something

>>382380407
> because they never post videos or webms of all the 'fun' they are having

Why exactly would these people generally post on /v/, when most of you are braindead shitsticks?

t. braindead shitstick posting on /v/

>>382380407
People who got used to Elite: Dangerous' space flight mechanics generally enjoy Star Citizen's more, which is probably what you're referencing.

This. Don't listen to these scam citizen shills.
Part of the money is going to these little turds. I know these because in a thread that was 5 months ago I managed to get a confession from one of these anons.

>10 million is not much money
It is enough money even if you spend in stupid shit. These bastard with all that time, all the money, a lot of workers couldn't even finish half of the game.

Why is this not in /pol/ ?
We should make a thread of the scam.

>>382381257
It's not officially a scam because they release techdemos to backers which are constantly reworked and remade and don't represent what the final game is supposed to be at all but who cares I love Star Citizen!

always though this was pretty cool

You started it, you fucking retard.
Unsubstantiated claims is the entire basis of Trump's election.

>>382382534
If that game had an actual interface for doing the big managerial actions, i would never stop playing it. Well ok, that and an actual simulation rather than its director shit.
But just imagine, you can like, zoom out of your ship into a sins of a solar empire -esque view of the universe and set up all the shit you need to build as well as control your ships everywhere.

There is no incentive for the devs to release it.
Retards keep on giving them money regardless

Yes the guy who didn't waste money on a non-existent scam of a product is the one who is retarded. This is exactly why Trump won because the idiots now outweigh the smart people.

Cmon now anon, that's just hurtful. This product exists in their heart, like a waifu. Who's cucking them, but they still love her.

I have the weirdest fantasies about playing this game and I haven't even backed it yet. I've just gotten extremely high levels of anticipation based on all that I've seen. The worst part is I know that the game will never actually come out so I feel like shit.

>>382385903
I used to feel like this until I found out there wasn't any Eve Online tier manufacturing side of things, though I'll reserve any total dismissive feelings on the depth of the MMO side of the gameplay until I see economy mechanics in game.
