Why the constant dishonesty?

Nope, I wasn't specific enough. Perhaps the market for the most recent generation of consoles isn't big enough (yet)?
Ok I get it but it will be very soon, and since they already have the dev toolkits for Next Gen from long, in a good planning business you should make a move for it, while they keep saying "we have no plans" 😉

But that depends on each person's perspective.

Living in the NW of England, (where we've had basically only 2 months of 'no lockdown' restriction's of some form, since last March), when I pre-ordered my copy of Odyssey I knew damn well that there was very likely going to be another delay on it's release.
Yet I still placed my order & I wait............nothing dishonest about it.
Now if Frontier suddenly announce bankcrupcy or liquidation because of ONGOING financial difficulties, yet they still took my money.....that would be dishonest!
Yes I understand what you're saying, though filing for bankruptcy and delaying a product are two different levels of dishonesty :)

Reasons aside, as I said, I believe Frontier must have known that they would not make the first quarter release date when they started taking pre orders. Delaying the game by another couple of months (more on console) isn't the end of the world no. But as I said if you start taking people's money and know a product isn't going to be ready when you said it will be, it is dishonest. Disingenuous at the least.

There was no need for them to start taking preorders then, it was a conscious decision. Personally I'd much rather they delayed the PC version too, and do a proper Alpha and Beta strategy rather than the very short timeframe we currently have for it.
 
Braben sells you a space ship you can fly now in a live game. Roberts sells you a picture of a ship for for real $$ for more than my car and promises one day you will have a live game (🤞)

I think the answer is simple
No... You have that all wrong... Roberts has released a game that far exceeds anything Braben could make, everyone knows that 😤

Sorry, I've just returned from a time-travel jaunt to 2054 to celebrate the launch party and am a little confused still :ROFLMAO:

Yeah. Just my personal opinion... given the last few years, i can wait a few more months. Not sure how easy it will be to take another half baked or buggy feature release... Lets wait instead of looking forward to something and receiving crap.
 
Is this a DOOM thread or handbags at dawn? I’ve filled my handbag with belt buckles just in case...
