Someone please post a clip of the Idris coming in to land. People in the thread were laughing at the terrible physics and that is my number one SC porn.

Star Citizen is about being in a ship that is travelling somewhere.

But everyone is on another ship, travelling in another direction, doomed to increase the distance between them as the universe expands, stars guttering out like so many glowing coals as the universe suffers final heat death.

It's being marketed towards the aeroplane/truck/train simulator crowd while lacking the most important ingredient to any actual sim head and that's any semblance of plausible physics. The 'game' parts of the game if you can call them that are clearly geared towards fps/shooty kids whether you are in a vehicle or not which precludes the original sim goals they continue to give lip service to. The game is years into being built around these boost/dodge/strafe mechanics as it defines how everything interacts from top to bottom.

I know what you mean, but its more like Euro Truck in it's realism then DCS World. It is simulating the look and feel, not the physics and realism. That combat is twitchy and over quickly supports my view that it is a means to an end of providing motivation for the roleplay experience. If they gave more than half a poo poo about the combat, they would have actually finished implementing it and made a bigger attempt to balance it. That it is over in a minute is in service to the people who want to sit in a chair and travel to the next location, not the twitch shooter kiddies. There's nothing to the combat that is fulfilling for that segment.

How does this experience scale for multiple players considering that this was a pastiche of a mission that is supposed to take place against AI? Where is the AI? Are they really expecting you to call in an Idris?

Again, this poo poo is intended to make the backers nipples tingle, there's going to be another bunch quietly asking why they don't have 3.0 even now.

You're not wrong, though. This space game is beginning to under a Tetsuo-like morph into something that doesn't have a lot of space game in it compared with loving around in deserted bars.

Fair enough, the german auditor sim crowd may be appeased but none of the stick/rudder simmers and cockpit builders I know or talk with or I see posting places (many of whom were on board until the flight physics bait and switch that never went away) have the slightest respect for the project between the obvious and grotesque marketing and the spastic +/-20g flight model that at best is something between noclip and 'instructor mode' in WT. Shooty kids complain too, I think in the end SC will suck for everyone in the unlikely event it doesn't die on the vine. FPS is gross if you're an fps'r. Flight is gross if you're a simmer. I'm sure any other groups mechanics that get represented will be equally retarded and disliked by their respective grognards.
