How could you run star citizen client on a console to launch this SQ42? How can it be remotely reasonable to advertise publicly you going to defiey a contract. Then years after the upset party has been dragging you to court dribble that your own public statements are not true and you made secret deal with a third party that makes your first agreement null and void but only decided to let that slip now? Oh and pay the legal fees for driving a car through my shop window and doing donughts. The whole thing seams absurd. The release of SQ42 is obviously needed for any financial remedy to crytek I can understand announcing you are going to break a contract immenitly and breaking a contracting are two different things... It seams absurd you are allowed to reap the benefits of the contract breaking announcements while not having to pay he costs. Maybe this is top tier legal trickery at work.

I'm glad that the ELE didn't occur, this train wreck is too precious to end at this point. It has to go out slowly, an implosion wouldn't do it justice. It has to go away like a fart.

Outside this thread, there are three types of people: those who laugh at SC, those who don't care, and the zealots. The zealots matter least because they're no different than any other cult - if you just forget the compound exists, it doesn't really matter who's inside. Star Citizen failed years ago. Whatever the gently caress CIG is cobbling together right now is certainly not what their website was advertising all those years ago. The broken mess they punish themselves in is the purgatory their supporters deserve.

I love that CIG not actually changing to lumberyard means it really did take a few days for multiple devs to just update the license information inside of their nightmare spaghetti code. I bet making the change caused compiling errors or at least some amazing bugs. Like, a line number changed and caused argon to instantly kill the player or somehow they had active if/then statements stuck in a block that's normally commented out.

Biggest fight in SC History As a KSP player, all I could think about was "In all this time, why haven't they done any significant amount of orbiting around that planet? They're probably decently far away. How long did it take to get their orbits synchronized to get into this dog fight in the first place? Why haven't they drifted apart? How are they turning and changing vectors that quickly? Their rotational acceleration is ridiculous." I guess realistic orbital mechanics and rotational inertia would cut down on the fun of it all though.

I can only hope that more locations, either procedural or far from high population areas, are made for criminals to "hack" their wanted level away. The current state of affairs couldn't be any more unfriendly to the incidental criminal trying to become lawful again.

Cry was probably hoping for an injunction against releasing the game before SQ42 was published. Seems far fetched to me, but .

The last statement CIG ever made regarding access to SQ42 is that it would be through the Star Citizen client, thus not breaking any terms of the GLA. That statement was publicly available, so it was pretty weird for Crytek to try and sue them over their release of SQ42 when 1. It hasn't been released 2. Their announced release method doesn't contradict any terms Also, CIG has already paid all the costs required by their contract. They made a payment to get the license as well as including Crytek's work on the original prototype/demo thing. They also gave all their patches to the engine back to Crytek (eventually). As far as we know, CIG owes nothing to Crytek at this point.

Question for people who still think there's some gotcha in the engine swap and Crytek have a good case relating to it. CIG: Originally they got an exclusive licence for CryEngine from Crytek. It's exclusive to CIG, they cannot resell it. Downloaded: Cryengine-source3.7.zip from Crytek which has Crytek headers and Crytek.licence.txt Amazon: They got a non-exclusive licence for CryEngine from Crytek. They can seemingly resell whatever they want and make whatever changes they want. Downloaded: CryEngine-source3.7.zip from Crytek which has Crytek headers and Crytek.licence.txt CryEngine-source3.8.zip from Crytek which has Crytek headers and Crytek.licence.txt Created: Lumberyard-source.zip which has whatever headers and Amazon.licence.txt Amazon email to Crytek posted:We can confirm that yes, Amazon did license Lumberyard to CIG in 2016, and we included Cryengine (what you CIG: Swapped from CryEngine-source3.7.zip to CryEngine-source3.7.zip which are actually identical, so there's no headers to be changed or anything to even swap. I don't understand what anyone who thinks there's some gotcha moment in the headers or whatever, actually thinks should have happened and how there can be a gotcha? I just don't even know where an alternative to CryEngine-source3.7.zip could come from that people still think CIG should have used to swap to? Eight months later CIG changed Crytek.licence.txt to Amazon.licence.txt which at this point, seems acceptable unless Crytek want to have a go at suing Amazon for their relicensing practices.
