Plot twist: the current “game” is actually running in-game on a screen in your ship’s cockpit. That’s why performance is so bad. At citcon they’ll do a big reveal where they boot up the game and then the camera pans out and you can finally see the real game they’ve been working on all this time and all you mean goons will have to eat your words

Are they showing these long forgotten play segments like arena commander attention because the PU and SQ42 are so hosed they need to keep the Commandos distracted?

That game will be feature complete and functional about the same time Star Citizen is. It will also be about as fun. "LOL the scope is everything" is not how you do game design.

Hot off the test servers: 8 minutes of thrilling cave action My favorite bit is the part at 2:15 where he tries to drop a glowstick and it goes skittering off to the left instead of falling down.

Want a door? what kind of hinge will it use? is it connected to the proper subnetwork and programmed properly so that it can receive the commands from the button located across the room? Does it have access to power and is the generator properly insulated so that... I just want to open the goddamn door and, oh god! the space rats ate the cabling and now I have to program the cabling robots to look for spots where the cable is chewed so I'll need a centralized handling station and this requires multiple extra doors. I think it is interesting in that it points to a possible future where people will be given hyper-detailed virtual tools to help express themselves in a VR society.

It's a game for engineering nerds. If you don't want to do the engineering you probably won't have to- you can just load up the coolest blueprints and tool around. But just like Space Engineers or KSP, that would be missing the point. There's a real feeling of ownership in having built all the systems yourself.

Meanwhile over in CIG land, it turns out the spaceship popularity contest is probably rigged. Shocker, I know. But if you visit the page and inspect the tournament brackets, you can see that the Cutlass, "Ship 01," is slated to go all the way to the final round, where it will apparently face "Ship 09" whose identity I don't think we know yet. The Gladius is already slated to be the winner of today's showdown. Not that this matters in the slightest but LOL that they are cheating their own popularity contest.
