Game Discussions Star Citizen Discussion Thread v12

FTR: "Anyone who thinks Chris is going to wrap up the first iteration of his story masterpeice and then focus on Star Citizen exclusively for half a decade or so is dreaming. All those resources, money, and manpower Squadron is currently consuming are just going to roll right into the next episode once the first one is finished"

Yup, all those backers who think the release of SQ42 part 1 will mean faster development of SC seem to have forget CIG sold part 2 already and said there will be 3 parts in total.

....
"SQ404 is a story masterpiece which, once the first episode is finished, still leaves SC requiring another five years work."

Nope.... can't stop laughing.... does he think he's helping...?

On the Yamiks video, was also surprised to see the % of completion given in the order of 30-60% by the interviewees. Especially when you hear Noobifier´s list. If we just look at missing star systems and content in those systems only for exemple, there are still hundreds of planets to finish, plus their corresponding cities or outposts or specific gameplay locations and npc inhabitants, aliens, missions in those, balancing of economies, items etc in them to make them really distinct. Plus anything else that may be in space, anomalies, stations etc etc etc. I mean, unless we believe all those are going to be basically copy paste of what we have now, those percentages are just wishfull thinking and no more than highly condensed copium.

Also, the video made it to spectrum. I liked a lot the irony of this comment from one of the most vocal white knights in there:
Turns out, it doesn’t actually matter what they say. They are just players with extra time to waste.
:unsure:

They are much more than that. These people are directly responsible for getting more people pledging for the game. They generate hype over ships and sales and new content. If the content creators stopped pumping the game, then CIG would get less funding.

“Squadron 42 is now holding Star Citizen back
the way it is, is beyond infuriating to me”

I am genuinely curious 🤨 SQ404 holding back the development of the PU… what? SQ404 is pretty much just a guided tour of the PU with some fancy cutscenes!

also please someone tell them that spending $1000 isn’t enough to be considered a “relevant” backer… /s

Thing is, we don't know actually how true this is. We know what CIG are saying, but there is no proof of it, since we don't see SQ42 at all. Its basically a "trust us bro" thing.

However, those who backed SC and only wanted SC, are naturally frustrated when CIG are offering up SQ42 as an excuse for the slow development of SC.

Amen to that. The idiot Roberts has already been paid to shovel that interactive movie crap out the door many years ago... and many times over what it's worth. It's continued existence is due entirely to Roberts hubris...nothing more.

This utter mismanagement of resources, driven solely by Roberts, is continually biting the very hand that feeds it by starving the PU of much needed development resources to feed this farce of a movie project. It was never a good idea...even with the seemingly unending patience and forbearance of Star Citizen backers. The giveaway is in the title...we're not Sqn 404 backers.

Sqn 404 is a 1990's game designers idea of what makes a good game, a shadow of the only thing Roberts has ever done that has been of any success...in reality, nobody makes those games anymore for a very good reason...this isn't the 1990's.

Fun thing is when some argue that if SQ42 is late it's because it needs some techs made for SC. So SC is holding back SQ42 is holding back SC is holding back SQ42 is holding back...

Its crazy, because the scope of SQ42 hasn't really changed since the early days, at least not in any way announced. Yeah, some of the stretch goals stated more money would add more missions to SQ42, but that was paid for long ago. And back then, CR was still spouting the "more money means faster development" nonsense and not once did they say it would delay the release of SQ42.

But year after year excuses were given, and now they say they need tech for the multiplayer game to make the single player game work.

Amazing.
