Some translations:

"The website still mentions 2016 as release date. Also, Roberts stated that Squadron 42 would definitely be ready within 2016, although it was being thought about to delay the release to fix bugs and polish the game."

"In the gamestar interview Roberts states that he believes the fans would react to a delay of SQ42 more positively than to a buggy release and that the developers of Uncharted, Naughty Dog, had also delayed their game to improve it. However, the time between the first trailer of Uncharted and its release was less than 3 years."
I get the distinct impression that Chris doesn't quite grasp the difference between delaying a release for N months to fine-tune and polish the gameplay, and repeatedly delaying the testing for N years before you can even get to the fine-tuning an polishing stage.

And it's not like “everyone else is doing it” is a very good excuse to begin with. :rolleyes:

Sometimes I really cannot believe how volatile Star Citizen fans can be

Eh. That's comparatively mild. I mean, there's hardly even a death threat or wish of bodily harm among them.

I still find it hilarious that they think “Derek Smart” and “…but Line of Defence” constitute some kind of argument.
:D

We just don't understand delays.

This is simply a "tweak and polish" pass that will only last 6 months. 18 at a push. They just have to flick a switch after all, so there's nothing to worry about. The game is feature complete and the whole universe has been lovingly constructed. Buy an Idris :D

One of the funniest things is that by repeatedly citing Derek, accusing people of being Derek and launching attacks on Derek no matter who they are speaking with and how irrelevant he is to the conversation they think they are somehow helping SC.

The reality is the citizens have done more to draw attention to and spread the word of their anti-chris than Derek ever could have done.

Textbook example of the Streisand effect.

Well done citizens please keep it up.

It really is - I probably never would have heard of him if not for the SC fandom constantly bringing him up.
 
If Derek Smart didn't exist, I suspect the 'citizens' would have found another candidate for Two Minutes Hate anyway. Scepticism about SC can't be based on objective analysis of facts, so it must be a conspiracy... ;)

They'd blame evil publishers or ED fans. No scratch that they'd blame whoever CiG told them to blame in a rambling letter.

Well without knowledge about game development that "objective analysis of facts (LOL)" allways reeks of theory-crafting to suit some vindictive charades and that's why it's ignored by everyone beside forum warriors. ;)

This charades only seem to matter in this little bubbles disconnected from reality, the truth is, that when all is said and done, it will be seen as major a waste of time from people with nothing better to do (me included). [big grin]

All these moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain... buy an Idris :p

I think of this guy whenever someone mentions an Idris:

Must be difficult to cope with the fact that he's doing the game he's allways dreamed off since a child and that there are thousands of gamers supporting him and thousands more joining in day by day. :D

Not at all. People are happy that he's making a game that people want. The sad thing is it's going to take him a decade to do it.

What on earth are you even talking about? None of what you just said made any sense in relation to the quote you responded to.

You're being very optimistic there…
