If you'd throw $2.5m at Freelancer™ you could get a decent remaster with all the features like real economy, proper balance, meaningful destroyable ship parts, big universe, etc etc etc. But hey, they had $250m, I still have hope that one day I'll be able to buy SC. And if not, I don't care, I never backed

If there was a betting on when SC (at least sq42) releases, what year would you bet on? Mid 20-s or early 30-s?

Rotten Red Rod posted:Real, no-joke answer: never. Might be a Freelancer style 'singleplayer' and 'multiplayer' menu, or a choice to do 'Main quest' being sq42 right in the middle of the PU, like its done in warframe. Anyway, I got the main idea from people's thought in reply to your post. Thanks

colonelwest posted:Every single photon entering the atmosphere is fully simulated, it might be hard for your FUDster mind to comprehend, but Star Citizen isn’t one of your poo poo tier non-fidelity games, it’s a full blown universe simulation. The foundation has already been laid, and once Socks version 2 is in, scientists will be using Star Citizen to test advanced theories in physics and cosmology. Is it megamind sarcasm or...? I would have believed if they did something properly at least. Or delivered something. It even would explain setbacks and delays - oh cmon almost 8 years instead of two, thats 4 times more than we initially were promised. And yet they are nowhere near even the beta stages.

Ambaire posted:I think what resonated with me most about the longer quoted section is how perfectly it seems to fit for anything from flat earth theories to star citizen fanbois to even multi level marketing scams. Humanity is still mostly a mass of dumb sheep... I do admit that human psychology continually fascinates me. Why do we .. x. Why do our brains make us think/do/say z. etc. Am I really in control of my actions, or am I merely a trembling mass of programmed flesh? (insert Disco Elysium quotes) Yes we are in control of our actions. It's just called 'self-conscious', 'self-aware' living. People just dont want to. Its easier and happier to eat tasty big mac and blame others of enforcing 'unreal body standards'. More 'woke' people try to eat healthy but still they don't stop to think and apply earned 'thinking' expirience to their whole life. /food is just an example/ Man its early morning here, we need a separate thread about psychology.

Drawing a correct picture of the Mid-Tudor Crises is a calk walk compared to working through all the lies and changed history since Star Citizens and SQ54 inception. Makes me wonder if the creator of these pics still a supporter or already refunded

Scruffpuff posted:I still don't understand what's keeping Elite from adding more of a *point* to the game, for those of us that need some sort of external motivation to get moving. Lack of competition is why FDev is delaying everything and not putting stuff out. Im drowning in Elite's lack of content atm and I love it. I guess I would just die of dehydration in front of my PC if everything that SC promised back with the initial kickstarter would be released all at once.

If you are having problems running SC, be it bugs in the game or the launcher, please do the next: 1. create a notepad file on your desktop 2. open it and paste the following there, copy and paste the path to your SC folder into quotation marks code:4. run it every time before running star citizen launcher obviously don't do it but you can share the instruction with shartshitizens on their subreddit Erulisse fucked around with this message at 12:11 on Jan 28, 2020 |

Rotten Red Rod posted:The whole concept of prison mechanics are funny to me, I don't know why they think it will be inherently better that the space police arrest you instead of just shooting you. Anyone actually engaging in illegal smuggling gameplay will likely want to outrun/fight the law anyway, so it's just adding tedium and annoying mechanics for people not trying to engage with the system at all. Because Elite already implemented prison.
