If a company of >400 staff still has the CEO coding then they're in trouble. Coding is not what a CEO is paid the big bucks for.



The great thing about English which can make it really fun is that you can humourously substitute a lot of words in novel ways that still make sense in context. This makes it an utter nightmare for non-native speakers.

"... and then I nailed that guy square in the saucepans" could easily mean the same thing but is gibberish under any other circumstances.

I've plenty of non-native speaking friends. Even those who have lived in the country >20 years get caught out sometimes!

I like to imagine it. Colourful images transport the message usually well enough if all agree what's on the picture.

Has there been any evidence* for the existence of SQ42 this year? (I'm genuinely curious.)

By evidence I mean 'in game footage' put on the interweb in 2020.

Please don't reply if intending to say any of 'spoilers' or 'beta soon' or 'reboot' or 'sandworms'. Thanks.

* Excluding the guy who has played through all the levels. Because. Well. 'Yeah right'.

No

But its pretty much accepted already that SQ42 beta will hit next year so I dont think CIG feels any kind of pressure to make it hapen 2020 if not from above. Even then I rather see them releasing what they have instead of showing any SQ42 progress

Nupe. And Zyloh gets easily excited. I guess he just played all the levels in a wet dream he had about being a big name as QA specialist in the game industry.

There's an argument there that with online games being what they are, an iterative aproach does allow you to get some telemetary about how people play with a new feature rather than trying to guess. Most online games evolve. Obivoulsly this hasn't been great for Elite where something like Powerplay seems to be largely forgotton about but other aspects such as mining/trading and even missions are massively improved on what they were a few years ago, largely due to understanding how the game actually works with thousands of players.

This is a major problem for Star Citizen since so few of those features appear in any form and the vast 'MMO' aspects have taken a back seat to "fidelities", so even if Roberts does get his multi-room multi-gas mult-player "running around trying to put out a fire while an NPC finishes you off and randomly dying for some reason that might be because of some weird room gas variables or just starvation yay!" it will take significantly more time before it matures out in the real world.

Thinking about it, the feedback CIG do get is from their more hardcore backers, and the feedback they get in a post-release world might be substatially different.

Like CIG make travel times long. The faithful say "we like long travel times" and then it gets release to the public and the feedback might change to "this is horrible"

Or "Death of a Spaceman is a great idea Chris" vs "This is absoloutely moronic!"
