It looks like Kingdom Come releases in Feb 2018 so obviously whatever tech they traded with CIG they immediately discarded

Kingdom Come ran their kickstarter same year as Star Citizen and since both games use CryEngine, KC devs they offered to share stuff between the two projects. Croberts even made a post back then about how they will use Kingdom Come's cloth layering tech for characters. Obviously none of this materialized and KC devs have distanced themselves away from SC since and never mentioned it again.

They have a stable playable beta for the backers with most of the game complete, and have done a crazy amount of mocap as well for the campaign and it looks good. They have 1/5th as many devs as SC and are releasing the game in Feb. They also have not shilled a single horse jpeg and did not pre-sell any concepts for donkeys that punch above their weight.

All it would take is $10 to see all the evil goon plans that are in store for those citizens. Honestly, I held off for like, ten years, from buying a SA account even though a few of my friends are SA goons. I ended up buying one just because I felt like I was going insane on the SC reddit\discord. I just wish I explored the other parts of SA but eh, I'm not really a social person anyways so. Whatever.

I do like how some goons sell coffee though, thats pretty neat. I also use to play on the SA Space Station 13 server. If the Star Citizens really want to roleplay, SS13 is pretty much that. Love it.

I love that goons are basically a myth passed down in song by bards at this point to these people.

Almost all of the time it was just someone defecting to goons with information or like a 1 month assignment because nothing was ever secured by pubbies.

Mittani was always a long-winded gently caress but boy did his propaganda really actually permanently imprint on some people. Goons are now these lizard creatures that will crawl inside your skeleton and lay in wait for decades.

The same concept as Black Ops being this feared, whispered about group that gangs 5x the size would avoid when really we were just fat guys talking about anime while cloaked.

Xenoverse 2 was actually pretty drat fun. Nice character creator, less bullshit fighting engine, and it has raid bosses, of all drat things.

New Features for Star Citizen 3.1:

* clowns reported to cause psychological trauma due to resemblance to Big Benny's Mascot
* All Big Benny's machines have been replaced with clowns
* using toolbox as a melee weapon causes random clients to crash to desktop
* using toolbox on clown spawns Pusher for unknown reason
* Pusher model not implemented. Replaced with default model (Big Benny Machine)

I'm currently also replaying FEAR.

Two things strike me with this game:

1) how incredibly well it aged. I would nearly put it up there with Doom. They don't look "cringy" when you are used to current day graphics, but simply look cool and good.

2) how often these days I play an FPS where the overall game experience is actually what entertains me, not the shooting part. Like "yeah, another fight incoming, let's get over with to enjoy the rest" while FEAR to me is like "woah....what a loving great firefight......hurry, I need another one!"

Seriously, the shooting in this game compared with the environmental effects when (swaying lights from bullets, dust kicking up and hovering around, bits of cement falling from the walls and ceiling after some bullets hit them) is such a perfect blend of great graphics/athmosphere and top-notch gunplay where every weapon feels awesome, AI is awesome, everythings awesome.

Oh, and I get to nail people to the wall, that's also a plus
