Lack of VR years after CR confirmed it was imminent also a bug then!?

I'm not sure I follow your logic

We just want an explanation for Man-Bat here

Not a bug. Never get Quantum Drive catching you while sitting on the toilet.

I totally follow why you don’t.

Can't wait to see the backers' reaction to ED Odyssey! (assuming the trailer is real).

 

[AkenBosch]

Posted on then swiftly removed from FD official channel, so quite a safe bet on that.

Well, I managed to catch it while it was still on the ED YT channel, so I think it's legit Still needs more trees...

looks like no easy sleep for CI-G and their supporters today.

 

[Komemiute]

Dunno, nothing would make me happier but the logo at the end is too simple and quite some things look off...
I'm not letting myself unto the hype train until more official info.

Easy: not enough fidels, bland terrain (quite true), no spaceworm, lacks a dozen of millions of polys, yeah but can you [insert super useful derivative not/badly implemented microgameplay]

Mods are busy playing whack-a-mole trying to take down the links. Poor mods.

 

[Agony_Aunt]

no spaceworm,

But also no IP infringement either!

 

[Skizomeuh]

Do you think SQ42 trailer will be late furthermore?

 

[Agony_Aunt]

The SC reddit has picked up on it.

Some funny comments there. Most actually positive, but some defenders of the faith already lining up.

I predict that the opposite will happen when people realize that all you can do is walk around on boring procedually generated planets with nothing to do except reading some flavor text after picking flowers.

As opposed to Start Ctizen?

For all we know you pick between getting out on foot or in your rover on the surface of a planet and otherwise you are still glued to your seat.

So, apart from the roads, aqeducts, sanitation... what have the Romans done for us?

Someone didn't get the memo in the last decade or so that consoles are actually pretty good in terms of quality and performance these days

LOL. This thing is coming in early 2021 on crappy Xbox One and PS4. LOOOOL and of course, no gameplay footage.

Know what other game had a nice looking trailer? Anthem. It's easy to make a trailer, much harder to make a great game.

Says the SC backer...

Oh dear... someone thinks SC is ahead in tech

But truth be told, technically SC far more advanced than any other game in the market, and will remain so for the next 5 years at least. An actual competitor will be hard to find.

Also some funny comments

Early 2021? Ha! By that time we'll have the SQ42 video!

What I took away from this trailer: Jetpacks will be announced for Star Citizen later this year or sometime in 2021.

In response to someone being defeinsive of SC

Crash to desktop, fall through the floor...yeah it's fun

 

[Agony_Aunt]

Do you think SQ42 trailer will be late furthermore?

Everything is going to be delayed even further now.

CR is probably already watching the new ED trailer and is about to call an emergency meeting to explain what new ideas he has had for SC and how they need to drop everything to implement.... JETPACKS!

For sale, concept only, warbond only, $500.

(in the voice of David Attenborough) And here, we see the formation of a new narrative....

Elite Dangerous: Odyssey (Space Legs Comes To the Milky Way) - and why it’s not a concern for Star Citizen - Star Citizen Spectrum

So just saw the trailer for Elite Dangerous: Odyssey and it’s looks like after years of asking, FDev has finally pulled the trigger on giving ED players legs. THIS IS A GOOD THING FOR BOTH GAMES...

robertsspaceindustries.com

This is a good thing for both games

This is not going to kill Star Citizen

Now, let us kneel and pay.

EDIT....

Wow, had to pick up on this one, the level of ignorance about ED is quite shocking.

Star Citizen is already blowing that out of the water with organizations, beacons and 50 player support (more in the future)

Orgs = Squadrons, beacons = signal sources/POIs?, 50 player support < ED 100+ people in an instance is possible, although wonky. In SC you simply can't manage that, servers start to melt once they get too many people in. In ED instances can break with too many people, but the game keeps going.
