Derek Smart gets a refund from the Star Citizen guys by Ice Cream Jonsey 07/14/2015, 10:14am PDT

If you’ve been following the news this past week then you’ll know there’s been concern over the progress and funding of Star Citizen. Derek Smart of 3000AD has been highly vocal on the situation and talked us through his concerns in last week’s podcast.

In an odd turn of events, Derek received a notice on his Kickstarter account informing him that CIG were processing a refund for his pledge of $250. Derek told PC Invasion this evening that he did not request a refund for his Star Citizen pledge and it came completely out of the blue.


So Smart has been stating that there is no way Star Citizen is gonna get anywhere NEAR the promises they've made. I'm shocked that of all the old video game franchises, this is the one to get into the tens of millions. I do not get that at all.

So Chris Roberts refunded Smart on Kickstarter. That will stop him!!!

Oh, and everything we were ever told about Smart has been bullshit. The guy doesn't take shit from people which, even back in the late 90s, was abhorrent to pussies.

Here's Smart's latest on Star Citizen.


the dark and gritty...Ice Cream Jonsey!
