Mine was rhetorical too. Just adding to your 'deep' conversation.

Not even going to try? Very telling.

EDIT: Not sure any of you have noticed...but I keep lobbing soft balls for you guys and you just keep letting them fall to the ground. I'm trying to give you an opening for describing how CIG is going to beat the competition...unless, of course, you don't think they can.

- Vandull Coop
- Racing Module
- FPS Module

Got Coop & Racing delivered soon after GC.
Multi-Crew didn't see backers HDD/SDD until 15 months later in 2015

Where's the FPS module? Currently still indefinitely delayed....


2015 GC:
- New flyable ships (Scythe, Glaive & Merlin)
- Saitek Joystick Partnership
- Social Module Showcase(ArCorp City)
- Star Marine Showcase (2 weeks)
- Persistence Universe Demo

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thlY-sYv1fE

Social Module released ~18 months later than the spring 2014 date given at citizen con 2013

Remember when that Saitek partnership joysticks and other peripherals were going to go on Pre-Order last December...yeah.

Should be called the "Universe Demo" as the persistence there just got added in 9 months later and maybe we'll have full persistence by GamesCon this year.

And about that Star Marine Module...

Gamescom 2016 (my take on this years show):

- New HangaReady/Flyable ships: Caterpillar(H), Herald(H), Reliant(F), Dragonfly(F).
- Live Demo of Procedural Planets System
- Planetary Landings (New landing locations, Nyx/Levsky, Pirate's Home, Terra and an unseen location).
- Squadron42 Live demo play, maybe the finalized Morrow tour starting mission, hopefully a new one showcasing Dogfighting/FPS.
- Arena Commander Boot for LAN gameplay
- Star Marine Boot for LAN gameplay

Except they've already said there will be no show this year. Just a booth. Probably with a couple PC's with the latest demo build and maybe a new video. Maybe, just maybe they'll have a working prototype sticks from Saitek to try out. Maybe.

More incredibly deep conversation. Very telling.

I'm just here for the lulz. Just ask your friend asp boy. Lulz are all that is mandatory here.

I don't give a crap what Asp Explorer says. I know where they stand.

If you can't tell me what CIG has that will dominate the space genre as Gamescom then, your right, there is no deep conversation for such a shallow demo of a game.

If you want actual conversation, you need to clean up your house first. An environment where positive comments about SC are ridiculed and ganged up on instantly is not one that is conducive to conversation. It doesn't really matter how many times people here say this is a great place for critical conversation. It's not, and saying it is doesn't make it so.

Lulz are all that matters.

Oh give me a break. I'm here right now...asking to be wowed by what is to come from CIG. You can't do it...simple.

I've had positive comments about SC in the past...they weren't ridiculed...disagreed with, perhaps.

Right on schedule! I have no time for your shallow arguments! My lulz bucket is overflowing!

Instead asking what came in time, you should ask what of those features that came out (some released years ago) shown any status of finished, stable and even well-designed.
Tip: None of them. And we would be extrapolating if what they have released so far represents more than 5% of the game-as-promised with 6.2 million dollars of backer funds.

Not at all! Most of us wait with bated breath for the next installment of SC! We cannot wait to see what the poor developers have had to work with, what the poor backers have paid up for, only for it to be either complete vapourware, or a product so abysmally awful that even laughing at it feels wrong. And it's absolutely nobodies fault but CR's - it's his project, and he is the only one who is absolutely responsible.

Sorry, but no. Whenever I have a meaningful conversation, I get a couple decent comments from a few folks. Then there's a week of random nonsense from the same people.

I'm just asking for you people to prioritize meaningful conversations above your lulz buckets. But you can't do it...simple.

I'm going to take a sabbatical from this thread for 53 days, until Gamescom. CiG have said they have no idea when 2.4.1 will be out, they certainly have no release date for 2.5 and CR said the other night that good stuff was coming in 2.7 (perhaps 2.6 fell down the back of the sofa?)

There is going to be nothing new to talk about for the next seven and a half weeks and I find myself watching this thread like a car crash reality TV show, that I know is rotting my brains but I can't tear myself away from!

Fly safe CMDRs and Commandos, see you after Frankfurt :)

I know what you mean...

But in 7 days, your are going to see someone else enjoying a satisfying Star Citizen burn.

In 8 days, you will bum a SC burn, just to have a taste.

Before long, you will be right back in it :D Or your resolve is much better than mine :p
