How anyone can hate SC is beyond me. It has provided some of the absolute finest lulz in the entire history of computing.

The Star Marine duality and uncertainty principle for example :)

I know you're trying to be snide but yes and no, the idea and some of the mechanics of Star Marine are in the game. But no the full realized portion of Star Marine isn't in there, yet.

Press <<use>> to deploy a retread of wildly inaccurate marketing in an unconvincing way hoping that rubes are daft enough to fall for the same trick twice.
 
If that was true, then FD is also conspiring against themselves by allowing debate and outright criticism about the following ED topics:

x) Offline mode
x) Steam keys
x) Ship transfer times
x) FSD boost
...and many other issues which the community was very much going against the plans of Frontier Developments.

And I'm glad FD allows criticisms on their forums. Although exhausting for them, I believe it's ultimately going to work in their favor. Group Think is a dangerous thing for a creative company.

I don't have much experience of game dev forums but I've been struck by how much slack people complaining on the FD forum get. Not the good complaints, the other sort. To the point where pointing out how unreasonable people are usually gets me an infraction :) Sorry mods, you clearly suffer fools better than me :)

Agreed though, it's good they don't close down even the most ill thought out threads.

What is the full SM? As the explanations for its non-inclusion were murky/changing, really not sure what to expect. Sataball probably not, will we see all mechanics/jukes from the SM demos, or is the SM that's coming in 2.6 new SM as they had to redo everything? Seems it will be whatever they manage to release in 2.6, which is not that big of a feat
 
I'm looking forward to the show! I hope we get some quality <waves hands>, a new concept ship, 90's FMV cutscenes and a good dollop of Script 4.0.9zxy.
 
I'm looking forward to seeing just how far they can stretch the ever-widening chasm between what they show in demos and what they've managed to get into a "playable" live state.

Chris said it was, and if it only matters what he said. We know this because he said so himself.

Who knows what full SM is or will be. Most can make an educated guess that it's not going to be what was pitched to us a year and some change ago. It will probably be a couple of maps, one being a station (not Gold Horizon) and one being zero-g (not Sataball). It should have the equipment like barriers, grenades (emp and frag)...,etc. Animations will be vaulting, cover and what we have now. Anything beyond that is icing on the cake, at least for me.

I'll believe in actual progress on the second coming of Star Marine when CiG announce it's a separate package from the mini-pu and squadron 42 the trailer with a price tag of at least $60 (ammo, armor, maps, grenades, med-packs and weapons extra available in the store).

Buy a Polaris! Maybe we can see Hyper Vanguard V released.
