Also: lol at a society that possesses both the ability to terraform planets in a manner of years & yet still needs people to farm poo poo as they fly through space so the plants don't go bad. Or harvest ore from meteorites manually. Unless it's for pointless reasons, almost like the space version of hipster artisan bullshit or other retro-ironic reasons. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kardashev_scale

runsamok posted:It's amazing how much cognitive dissonance is required to be okay with their setting. It's WW2 dogfighting in a setting that's literally been Ryan Archered from every possible reference source from Scarface to Farming sims, including every scifi franchise of any notoriety since the mid 70s. And there's been no comprehensive reference written on how it all fits together as that'd prevent them from dynamically reprioritizing & redefining the scope & features of the game. i for one look forward to their high fidelity GTA module. are they still doing modules or is SQ42/pu it? i dont even know any more.

CIG are only working on things they can sell. They can't sell mining gameplay, but they sure as hell can sell a shiny mining ship. I actually doubt they are working on anything except ships right now. Ships and dollars. One day the backers will realise that owning ships means nothing when you don't have a game to fly them in. At the current level of inertial stupidity though it's going to be a while. After all they just bought a big batch of mining ships.

I do remember the "In the unlikely event that we can not complete the game: gently caress you anyway" clause from 2012 but I don't ever remember reading "Your pledges are for Squadron 42, set in the Star Citizen Universe"

Gravity_Storm posted:Wow - so that's massive - they are getting backers to agree that all funds are for SQ42! They're doing their best to obfuscate that, though. 'Disclaimer' for the mining ship posted:Remember: we are offering this pledge ship to help fund Star Citizen’s development. The funding generated by sales such as this is what allows us to include deeper, non-combat oriented features in the Star Citizen world. Concept ships will be available for in-game credits in the final universe, and they are not required to start the game.

They have 8 months left roughly, all they have to do is release SQ42 part 1 chapters 1~3, or just chapter 1 even, and they are in the clear. SQ42 is 3 parts with 3 or 4 chapters each now or some such erin said awhile back. The game is a movie.

Fat Shat Sings posted:Yeah how old is that? I dunno. It looks like they're ve defined 'The Game' as Star Citizen, rather than Squadron 42. The ambiguous point look like - what constitutes 'Game Cost'? IMO, It's reasonable to include thing like office facilities, dev/graphic artists/admin staff costs, office facilities, furniture, computer hardware, but does that also justify Hollywood studios, inflated exec salaries, designer furniture etc?

Nobody gives a poo poo about SQ42, the twitch SC channels are dead, all the game-modes are dead, the reddit shithole is slowly dying and so is the brown sea, the funding is going down, employees are leaving, features are being cut. (April is not yet over but it is trending down) This poo poo is done, we just need Derek to stick a fork on it.

Did they put out a little press release flapping this 2016 release date about a bit to try and bolster the ship sales? They've had very poor to zero press coverage for the ship sale and free fly week - Rocket League is doing a free weekend which has been covered in ALL the games press and blogs. It's like no one wants to touch SC with a barge pole any more, last year all the gaming sites were happy to get the SC page views.
