Why did no publisher want to work with Chris Roberts? Don't keep me in suspense I want to hear a detractor's opinion because I only see the fanboys.
Well I am not a publisher but will give you my view on why none picked up this project.
First and forth most, I'd say his track record of games released in the pass decade - none, zip, zero.
He talks big, with dreams that any fanboi would love but where the rubber hits the road and it's time to make the software he does not seem to be able to manage the project relistical with feature/future creep taking over and ever changing goal post. Publishers (most) can see this and provide disapline for projects that are getting off track/becoming bloated.
Also his vision does not make ecconomic sense, he is aiming that high that most/alot of gamers will not have the gear to play the game as intended which is a big turn off to publisher who would like to see a project at lest make back it's cost. The money he has got so far is not how much the game would make if it was release, the 41 million is for promise and dreams which I don't think will be delivered on.
I don't think he is scamming anyone, I just think he is not relistic with what he is doing and I don't think it will end well - as this PAX East showing demonstrated - anyone who see that as a good revel is drowning in kool-aid.
So, on that matter, I would say this would have been a better game had he stuck to his origanal goal of the Squrdern 42 and finish and released that first, then move on to bigger things (his persisteant MMO like world, Start Citizen) or if he had team up with a publisher and let them have managed the project but I'd suspect he is a dreamer with a ego that thinks he can make it all happen, of which I doubt.
Also, if all you see is the opinions of fanboys, I suggest you look harder cos their are many who doubt what he is doing.
I have to get ready for work, but if I had more time (maybe later) I would get into how much is wrong with getting people to pay for virtual items in an unmade game.

They could add DLC helmet animations! Don't be so negitive Cutter. The helmet animation worked each time, unlike other parts of the game.
(they should add a 'mash space bar controller button X' prompt to the helmet animation to be truly next gen)
I can foresee in 4 years time the guys behind Goat Simulator buying out the remains of CIG/RSI to use for their "Goats in Space" game. I'm not KIDDING! |

It's also very clear if you watch the whole unedited presontation why no publishers wished to work with Chris.
And to think people are saying that he saved the space sim gene while all the time, (the last 12 years since he released anything) there have been other making them and plodding away.
At 50 million are they gonna add snake oil?

| While the graphics look nice, there is very little evidence of gameplay in all this footage. (and many crashes(computer side) which have been edited out) |

Watching that Star Citizen/Chris Roberts video reminded me of the opening safety form the superbowl .... what a mistake to make.
So, when is the DFM out then? |

RIP Warrior.
I can just imagine him running up to the pearly gates and shaking the hell out of them with his music blasting (only to be hit from behind by a waiting Macho Man) |

Can you list some of these games then for us n00bs?
Why not do the research yourself?
Well I went to look, but after 4 boring videos with people saying how they worked for Blizzard (in q/a not game desgin) or had work on a TV ad doing visual FX, I was wondering who it was who had worked on top rated games? |

I read some of the posts and I don't understand the negativism towards Star Citizen or Chris Roberts.
It's the most fun anyone can have with this 'game'
You just need to take a good look at the talent behind this game.
http://scwiki.org/index.php?title=Development:Development_Team
Teams behind some of the best games out there.
Edit - LOL, super funny, the co-CEO is a lawyer, that's planing ahead to beat those lawsuits! (he is a lawyer that works in the digital/gaming area at lest)
I read that list and all it told me was that they have no chief financial officer or accountant or anyone who I have seen make some of the best games out there.
What are these other games that members of this team have made? Anyone?

"I’ve been down the big company acquisition route twice before and there’s a reason I am making Star Citizen totally independently!"
Which is what?
a)No publisher want anything to do with him.
b)So he can dream all he likes without ever making it happen.
c)Cos his new Church of Christ Roberts answers only to God (Him).
d)He's made so many AAA games in the last ten years, he knows how it's done. |

"I’m incredibly happy to hit this goal as it green-lights a very important research project aimed at improving Star Citizen’s long term future."
So it makes the hangar bigger so you can buy more ships?
He's dreaming - if it only cost 1 million dollars to get a R&D team that can make that happen then why have no big publishers done it? They have lots of millions already. |

I agree there's something to be said for that. It's like buying a new car and the dealer telling you you're not allowed to ever sell it. It's not like HB isn't making their money. No one is technically stealing anything here.
It's very exploitive and just as scummy as stealing. It's gonna hurt Humble Bundle efforts for charity. |

| I'd love a South Park sequel with a 'super heroes' theme/story line along the "Coon and Friends" style. |
