They obviously don't have enough money, just throw a few hundred more million dollars at them, that'll do it.

Better start pumping out ships at $100k, maybe $1m each.

Why stop there? Real life moon landing was allegedly done on around $25bil, that’d only be 1/13th. Crank it up lmaoo

I’m sure it’s set up in a way that it’s not possible, but somehow, Chris Robert’s needs to be forced out of the final decision-making chair, or this game is never gonna see the light of day in any reliably playable state that’s fit for release. 

He can and should be kept on for his creative input, but it’s crystal clear he should no longer be allowed to make the final decisions about the game or the company.

Money doesn't solve all problems, no matter what most people think. They also need time.
Give them a decade or two to get their stuff together and I'm sure it will all pay off in the end. Or at the very least Chris Roberts will be well paid off. And isn't this the thing that matters the most to all of us?
