Roadmap update posted:

Notable Changes for January 10th, 2020

ARGO MOLE
The ARGO MOLE has been moved to released to reflect that it has, in fact, been released 

That’s all for this week’s Roundup – join the discussion on Spectrum

It's literally nothing.

It's a case of nobody actually coming to terms with the cold fact there is no game. It's like suing hobbyists. Filthy rich hobbyists, but hobbyists with no intentions of actually delivering anything meaningful beyond pretty pictures and dreams.

Hello Games is a small studio where everyone knows what everyone else is doing and can work in coordination with each other. Clown Incompetents not games are doing the opposite with a revolving door of the worst devs ever over 4 studios in different cities and time zones on two continents.

This is a little harsh on the devs. Some of those high schoolers and college graduates may eventually make it to a real company building genuine software and be very good at their jobs.

It looks like next Friday will have the actual Roadmap and the one today is essentially CIG going "We've got nothing!" with that single Mole comment.

You see, because they're "heads down in planning week", so they had to ignore giving backers any progress updates this week.

Most open and transparent development process ever. Link to the announcement.

once they get some experience and a portfolio built working on Star Citizen. But the ones with any talent have to see the inherent problems with SC (both technological and moral) and should be eyeing the door already. They have to be ready to leave behind their hacked together shortcuts and workarounds for the next new hire once they find an opening anywhere else.

Nah, it's weeks not months away and will be far more lethal than call of duty and there's definitely no problems at all with anything and development is going faster than ever because of the ssococosc pipelines kicking in soon. :derp:

It'd be pretty hilarious if, while they're phone-conferencing with Judge Judy and Crytek, an intern uploaded a roadmap for SQ42 totally releasing in Summer.

Maybe that's why instead they showed nothing.

Back in the day when MW first came out I used to play hardcore mode where single tap from any gun would be a kill. I guess if the game crashes when you spawn that would technically be faster.

Galactic Brain take:

Mark Hamill is in talks with Chris Roberts to make Squadron 54.


Unknown to Mark, Chris has not released Squadron 42. Chris Roberts' master plan is to trick Mark into thinking he's doing mocap and voice work for the sequel, when really he is performing the much needed re-shoots for Squadron 42.
