The big news is Pyro with lots of concept art that proves it is totally real, as well as a totally real mission playthrough on an outpost.

And they still had to pad it out with community submissions like player clan ads.

This looks so stupid, why is that chariot flying towards giant shampoo foam? Their clouds look kinda okay (except those that hit cloud ceiling), but jesus christ, leave something without clouds, it looks awful. Also put it on larger ball, it looks ridiculous. The art direction is complete poo poo

Baffling. They had Lando act like he was reading out live Twitch reactions and then put in a dissolve so it was obvious it was edited

No, Chris got pissy about 2 years ago with the whole roadmap to the roadmap stuff so he pretty much said that no more SQ42 stuff will be shown until ready. If the community had been mature enough to understand game development this wouldn't have happened but they decided to be entitled children instead. Imagine all the incredible stuff CIG would be able to share if the community hadn't been so toxic.

Lol, we haven't forgotten about that ship that's been in concept for eight years guys! We have so many exciting non-textured pre-rendered animations to show you!


The Playstation 4 is about as old as this ship. What a joke.

:obama:My first car was a stick:obama:
The men on screen are going on about the "grand" entranceway of this spaceship. There's a large ventral fin placed at the rear end of the ship. The ventral fin had to be designed into something purposeful by Roberts directive, so it was imagined as both a fuel scoop and an entranceway for traders when the ship is on the ground. Now it's a stairway, but it's placed at the rear of the ship and the ramp faces the front. The ramp leads nowhere. So it's a big grand staircase, and they're going on about how impressive it will be to traders, but instead of leading to a more impressive room, such as in a palace, it's a ramp to a loving elevator

If it was real, of course, it'd also stink of whatever petrol the ship is apparently scooping up. Or there'd be radiation on it or something idk

so the DEDICATED MINING AND REFINING SHIP. The ship that was the BACKBONE of push for mining and refining. THE SHIP THAT IS IN THE PICTURE FOR 3.1 FRONT AND CENTER.

Is 'planned' for 4.0.


EDIT: I'm a sleep deprived idiot and didn't notice these are the slides from 5 years ago. 5 loving years. why the gently caress did i buy an Orion.
