FD, are you going back to radio silence on development now?

What is the status of 2.3 and 2.4? Are they delayed into next year?

Most likely they don't as for now. Probably few teams are working in parallel and at this point it's quite unclear regarding the dates of 2.3, 2.4.

Besides, I think 2.4 is kinda like "Ships" last year - poor update with a little content in it (like Aliens beginning steps) which is released just before a new season just to 'fill the hole'.
 
I agree. I tried watching the Star Citizen Alpha 3 presentation but couldnt get through it with all the cheering at really mundane stuff like a ladder coming down from the ship you are entering and stuff. I had to turn it off.

I will never understand how people can get so excited over a game.

same here, the zealotry was too much
 
no doubt in my mind they will go silent, that is the pattern, though since we have a big release coming up in October we can expect to see some weekly previews of it in upcoming newsletters.
 
Totally! The whooping of idiot sycophants made me want to switch off.

Which I soon did. Game looked pretty amazing though

I watched that video on silent for very same reason. Hating that noise, it was nice to see demonstration itself.

The demo... i have seen many cool things from CIG... none of them in the game

I`m not a hater or anything but I will believe stuff only when i see it in a playable form released to the backers. Videos don`t do it for me, Cryengine`s Cinemabox is a powerful tool for bullshot creation

Wasn't Ships just name for Season 1 last update, which was mirrored as first update of Season 2? Same will happen here, but I don't think it will be that small this time.

So in reality 2.3 will be feature update, and 2.4 is most likely Season 3 content and something something aliens.
 
I seriously only need to know one more thing at this point.

Yeah, i think at least that is due. 2.3 would still be on its "fall" schedule if it makes it for Christmas, but i seriously doubt that, since i think it's a lot more tricky than 2.2

Me three. Honestly cannot stand the unnecessary whinnying. I love gaming, I love seeing advancements in technology, particularly graphics, but I don't make god awful noises whenever it happens. When people get together in a group they seem to exaggerate what they're feeling and then try to demonstrate what they're feeling with their voice... similar to what my 7 month old baby does.

That is a given. 2.3 will come out a month or two after E3 where it will be demonstrated (so it expect it round about now). 2.4/3.0 will be launched simultaneously with snippets shown at Gamescom, but the expansions not coming until late November in time for the Xmas (2017) rush.

I am only half-joking...
 
It's in their best interests to say nothing. They announce something, half the community praises it, half the community says it's ruining their immersion and they're taking the ball and going home. They say nothing, and the whole community just whines that they aren't saying anything.

We're stupid, but unified.

Yeah you are right, of course.
 
haha, I feel for the guys at FD. Barely a day since four days of updates ended and they're being badgered about what they're going to do from now!

Technically 2.5 days of updates and 1.5 days of recap ;-) but the sentiment holds....

Off topic... sorry, but I'll reply.
In the US, you start your stage with "So, I was at the little diner on 10th and Maddison" and you'll hear cheers from the audience. That has nothing to do with SC, everything to do with coming from the US... try that same UK and you get either silence or a few knowing chuckles about how bad the food is there. ;-)

Just an aside, a lot of the cheers were slight digs at the Devs because "mundane" thinks like ladders and doors often had murerous consquences when interacting with them,... like instant death or being catapulted into space at 2km per second.

There's a newsletter Today? It will have recaps galore. :p

In fact, if they have a link to a fourth day stream it will technically be a recap of a recap... a meta recap if you will.
;-)
