Chappie Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 I was unaware until recently that the MiG-21 I own was financially backed. What up and coming Leatherneck project requiring financial backing exists? Is there a next project known? If so, what is it? Is backing being sought? What are project expectations and deliverables?
NeilWillis Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 The whole area of crowd funding has been fraught with problems, without going into details, I suspect that any future developments will be steering clear.

I'm not so sure about that. True it has been tainted by folks with poor characters and low morals but Star Citizen has been successfully funded to 65 million so it can work with the right folks. Issue is troublesome publishers and niche interests that have traditionally been trending unfavorably for example Flight Simulation which is causing the rise in crowd funding.
joey45 Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 SC is a completaly different kettle of fish... SC only got just over 2 mill at the end of it's KS > What CIG has done was make more ships to sell* before the game goes live for additional funds.. *All ships can be obtained in game with ingame credits. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

I think, he is specifically talking about DCS. There were some attempts but they did not end well - for several reasons.
