I have this feeling that if Frontier and CIG teamed up, they'd be able to actually build something like this new version of Elite that's coming, but it'd look better.
Ok, so The Titanic is being held hostage by Citizens and is trying to alert us. Do we do anything about it, or just wait for her to escape by clipping through the floor?

that looks like absolute hot garbage, Arma 2 looked better than that from the skies and it was released in 2009.

and I bet it will still perform like crap and disconnect everyone constantly

it's good to see the great down-grading begin though

A thousand years into the future and I only see hotdogs, pizza, coffee, and burritos. Like, they have not even reached the salad & poke bowl stage in their stupid future society. It's all so boring. One would think that, after contact with aliens, there would be some alien influence in food and dress but no, eat that goddamn hotdog while wearing a t-shirt and khakis you future man you.

At least invent a loving coffee vending machine so that you don't need a clerk in your little canned coffee store.

Sounds like someone doesn't understand games development. He didn't buy anything, he invested in the game. The ship is a reward for doing so that will be delivered at some point in the future.

I don't imagine they give much of a poo poo to be honest, they've been getting away with this sort of plagiarism for so long now the backers are surely pretty much inured to it.

Meanwhile, in real space news, a bunch of what look like evil minions on the James Bond villain's volcano island hideaway have closed the hatch and we're now just a little under 2 hours away from launch, weather permitting.

Lol yeah this is even worse than usual.

The draw distances/pop-in have always sucked, because the engine was designed for small shooter levels, not gigantic planets. They seemed to have fiddled with it several times, but have probably always ran into performance issues that they are too incompetent to fix.
