That's such a microcosm of everything in this game. Everything just gets more and more broken as they move on to adding new stuff and old bugs just pile on and on, never to be fixed at the devs concentrate on adding new stuff.

Also some really gross transphobic jokes in that thread, ugh

This would be a fascinating curve-ball to this whole shitshow, but getting Squadron 42 ready enough to actually release on a console (or multiple consoles) feels like it would be above CI!G's capabilities. They have basically brute-forced Star Citizen to "work" on super high-end PCs, but even then it's a buggy, laggy, low FPS mess. Even next-gen consoles won't have the capability that the newest, high-end gaming PCs do, so trying to get Squadron 42 on console would result in a literally unplayable game.

Don't get me wrong though, "Squadron 42 on PS5 and XBox2X" would be the greatest and most entertaining shitshow we've seen in years, so now I actually want it to happen just for the massive fallout (76) that would ensue. It would be Anthem bricking consoles all over again, but even somehow worse.

Crobbo needs a massive hit, something like 2m *new* copies sold to start breaking even

I wouldn't be surprised if they're crunching hard to release SQ42 on PS5/XB next year for that reason

But get this

My first videogame ever was Donkey Kong, but I honestly am not sure what console it was on. It was at some friend of my parents' house.

In my memory, it has the graphics of NES donkey kong, but I distinctly remember controlling it with one of those simple black Atari joysticks with the one red button. The classic 2600 ones.

2600 Donkey Kong looks super ugly though, so maybe it was like a 5200?

I only played it the one time so its very foggy, I have the memory of the memory more than anything.

I know this reply is three months late, but that sounds like it was probably the Colecovision version.

:reddit: I do not see the need for clarification here, honestly can we really expect them to finish chapters when some gameplay part is still in development ??? Maybe the chapter 1 will need Vanduul cleaver which will be in development later. They need to finish the features **before** they finish chapters ! Their mistake is to have given us a roadmap where chapters would be magickally over whan the features themselves are not over yet

CG's silence on SQ42 is deafening. Check out the roadmap thread on the official forum, where a CIG employee responds to someone pointing out a typo, but no one responds to anyone worried about SQ42: https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/forum/3/thread/roadmap-roundup-december-6th-2019-1

I mean, it's possible they might be holding their cards close for the Holiday stream...? But you'd think they'd at least say something if so, it's pure speculation.

It's pretty clear that it's not happening in 2020. Or possibly ever.

I think it is even worse; there is no SQ42 and all that raodmap garbage is just made up. 1/2 of the SQ42 team is not making progress while the other half will just pump out some fake video/gameplay.

I kind of agree with this one, albeit I can see a reasoning as to why those quote-posts are made. Still I think there's been plenty of samples for the cult-like behavior, toxicity, mental gymnastics and their template-defense answers to criticism to last until the project implodes.

This thread has given these poor people more attention than they could handle and that really does not seem to help with their... situation. Also, arguably we might be paying more attention to what nonsense they write than the actual followers of that reddit space.
