Quoted: The preorder for Shrike uppers was pretty problematic. I think they went out of business and FightLight swooped in and saved the project? Hudson got killed (literally) with the aluminum frame H9s. It was before my time, but the Bren Ten preorder/delivery debacle became legendary. Guns with no mags, anyone? View Quote VLtor actually produced Bren 10s? |

That ejection port cover with a dab of epoxy on it. It was supposed to revolutionize the AR platform

Quoted: Lmao I played a free weekend with a friend a while back. Concept is awesome, it's nowhere near where it should be though. View Quote If it actually works.....it will be a massive step forward in playability. For trading at least. Note that this isn't full persistence of all states of things, but a temporary implementation for cargo, in the mean time. |

VLtor actually produced Bren 10s? Referring to the Dornaus and Dixon production run in the mid 80s most likely. Magazines were produced. But they were unreliable. The first few guns were shipped without magazines. |

For me personally, iQ2 cycling power meter pedals.
Kickstarter in April 2018. Delivery delayed again and again and now showing "mid 2021". Every update after the close of the campaign has basically been "just another couple weeks. We've had issues with __________ but once we sort those out full production!" I just check my account for the first time in years and it just says Fulfillment Status: Unfulfilled Hell, I barely even ride anymore let alone have the fitness to utilize power meters lol. |

Quoted: Shadow OPs 45 suppressor cluster fuck was the biggest I personally participated in. When it was all said and done the pieces of shit handling the bankruptcy cobbled together complete suppressors from presold suppressor internal and unsold tubes and sent them to auction and then all of us who paid in full up front got a registered, unthreaded aluminum tube with no internals shipped to our dealers. https://soldiersystems.net/2014/01/27/shadow-ops-weaponry-shdw45-suppressor/ View Quote Their entire operation was a cluster fuck. I don't even know if I got a refund for a few of their receivers they were "making" around sandy hook time frame. |

Charles Ponzi. Ripped off $250 million in todays bucks in the 20's. Guessing people waited a looooong time for a payout.
But Star Citizen. Dev had a post years ago that if he was ripping people off he would be off sailing on an expensive yacht not working on the game. Recently posted a bunch of pics of him sailing on an expensive yacht with his wife/girlfriend in the greek isles or wherever it was. |

Quoted: Damn unity tactical dual lead hotbuttons. This one is particularly annoying because of the number of people that held out waiting for them. |

Quoted: Star Citizen. View Quote I forgot all about that game. I remember hearing about it a very long time ago and thought it was a really cool concept. It's been in development for a full decade now. It's by the same guy who did the Wing Commander series, so it certainly sounded legit. Bummer if it was just a con. |
