Yeah, nothing's changed. Come back in Q4 later this year, and you'll be in time for the collapse shenanigans.

When the glitch/bug is far more entertaining than the actual game it's trying to get in the way of.....

Ignoring the bug for a second, the flight/combat is bad enough when you're actually playing it, but watching someone else follow an arrow round the screen with a mouse cursor just hammers home exactly how tedious and lacking in piloting skills the whole thing is.
It's like that video (which I can't find because there are too many "Star Citizen bug" videos on YT to trawl through), where the commando is in the station watching the giant ring come off its axis and slowly crash towards the window, which would actually be pretty cool if it was an epic, CoD-style "space station collision" set piece rather than just another inadvertent balls-up.

Best part? The “Little bear” free plan on tunnelbear: 500MB/month data limit. [wacky]
Wow - it still really is just follow the pointer.
No sense of ship manouvreing - if anyone wanted to see what "turreting" is that looks like a good candidate.
Is that Mr StayPuft, the Marshmallow Man? :/
Its what made me bail on the project very early on before all the scammy stuff started to surface. Its just terrible and completely balance breaking, worst control balance of any space-sim ever. It is a flight game with no flight at all zero, nada, zip. CR sold this game as a game for 'HOTAS' and HOTAS will be the best way to play......my big hairy backside! They are still lying and obfusticatiing about controls to this day pretending they don't understand the difference between first order and zero order taking their backers for fools.
Frontier never promised anything in particular about controls yet they delivered in spades, first order control with mouse and stick and automated gimbals, how hard was that? Also for anybody saying they prefer SC's 'flight model' , this has nothing to do with the flight model, no flight model can be balanced properly between first and zero order controls without doing stupid things that CIG try like OP missiles and fixed weapons as a sticky plaster to terrible stupid game design(game balance the CR way).
Where is it now?

Logitech was probably like...what the hell is this waste of effort that we inherted. CUT
Don't know but we suspect it's around here somewhere.
God awful thing.
The entire gimbal/mouse targeting is so damn borked.
A better way to do it would have been:
- Make it like gimbals in Elite with a computer tracking program limited by sensor system
OR
-Insert a small delay in gimbal movement so that a mouse user actually have to FLY the darn ship and GUIDE the gimbals to the target, not just point and shoot with INSTANT gimbal movement.
Update: Finally got this trainwreck to move out of the station after restarting the entire download and spending an hour harrassing my network devices in various ways.
Like the new menus, which is about everything I could get a good view on...
I know I'm playing this on a laptop (GTX 860M 2GB, i7-4710MQ, 8GB DDR3-1600) but the performance on the lowest graphical settings even after an extensive user.cfg tweak is just downright awful.
Checked my GPU and CPU frequencies and they're running just fine (GPU at 100%, cpu at between 60-80% per thread) so that's not the problem either.
Singleplayer arena commander freeflight I'm getting between 22 and 28 fps, Port Olisar with 6 people in the instance was hovering between 15 and 19.
PU seemed otherwise relatively stable... in the 10-15 minutes that I could bear the framerates I didn't notice anything going wrong.
Didn't really check out if there was any new content, sorry.
At least the game doesn't crash as much anymore so maybe they're getting somewhere.
Physics in free flight were wonky as hell though, my Aurora would literaly catapult away, spin uncontrollably or straight up exploding when I bumped into anything at any kind of speed over 10 m/s.
Fun fact... uninstall doesn't actually work properly.
It just deletes the launcher and reg keys and leaves 31GB of game data behind.
Will try again next year, hopefully on a desktop by then.
