The search function here is good. Looking up the oldest post by Ant featuring the word 'Vulkan’ took seconds, and was always going to be worth it

Ah ok....
Whoa, someone posted an image of a customer support response and someone else quoted the forum rules at them.
Hell bells. The guy just posted an image of their request for a refund on the Ares Ion. And that's a bannable offense?

Same question as every year - Star Citizen Spectrum
Dear Sirs. Can we get any news about Squadron 42? Are there any news? Do we get a holiday livestream or something like that? I thank you hopefully for your work this year

No offense but the the current Cutlass has had the pilot head position broken for years. The Cutlass does not fly straight. Let me make myself clear: The Cutlass tilts down and wobbles in atmo...

I want to see that refund screenshot.
Spectrum seems to just get saltier and saltier.
Faithful are having to repeat ITS ALPHA over and over again. So many threads are negative. So many negative posts all around. Its becoming more like this thread!
I suppose this is what happens when you market your game like a released product and people come in expecting something better than what actually exists.
Here's someone else challenging CIG about their work

I can answer the question though. Staggered development never actually happened, or at least not as it should have. Maybe they started doing it, but it went out of the window quickly. Its easy to prove. Items that are already started moving back 1 patch. Shouldn't be possible with staggered development. But its happened, repeatedly.

Its nothing.
They removed the image but somone had quoted it, here
That's what people are saying he can get banned for. Absoloutely laughable.
In that staggered development thread there is a white knight hard at work with a post of epic proportions full of the most regular talking points of the faithful, including this...
Which orifice do they pull these facts from?
Do they not see NMS with double digit numbers running rings around CIG in terms of releasing updates, new content, new features?
And they sure love to talk about ED, but then don't seem to consider that for most of its development its been around the 100 employee mark for the number of people involved.
And of course, the "2 games" excuse, while failing to note that they share a lot of the mechanics and assets and that one of those games is a single player story driven game that we were told was close to release in 2014 and that QA had played through all the level in 2015.
Oh man, this thread is fun!
First off a couple of reasonable posts.
Ok, we are assuming CIG are allocating most of the resources to SQ42 like they say, and its not just another load of bull coming out of CIG. It means that at least parts of the US and Germany offices are working on SQ42 instead of SC.
Good comment there i think, although it could have done with noting CR's plans to increase the manchester team by around 1000 people would put CIG seriously into the red unless they increase funding significantly.
And here it comes... from the person who posted the (in my opinion) first sensible comment above.
Netcode the size and complexity the world has not seen before.... which will enable checks notes 50 to maybe 100 people on the same shard. LOL
Ok, to be fair, they do get more realistic again afterwards.

Goddamn it CIG! Can't you just call it Vulkan like a normal person would?
That could just mean DX12 instead!
In fact, are we sure it isn't DX12?
And.. T1? Tier 1? Does that mean released? Or is it like Tier 0 and a bit? What tier is necessary for it to be working properly in game?
Apparently thirty developers working for four years are enough to create a new game engine for large scale FPS war games:

Using a ballpark figure of 100k EUR per developer per year, this amounts to 12M EUR. Which is about 2-2.5% of SC's money burn so far.

Rhetorical question - Given CIG obviously have problems sequencing and scheduling their project across their human resources, how on earth are they going to be able to sequence and schedule threads over CPU cores?
why is this thread still even alive? to me this just show why sc is still "relevant", as long as there are people like you still capable of talking about this , equally there are still people getting involved with the same thing that we call the "fandom", be it monetary involvement or just white knighting...
the whole thing should've been dead, buried, forgotten and become irrelevant, and yet here we are. I mean to be honest, this "skeptic community" has become the other side of the same coin , that is of one garbage and part of the problem.

And your point is? Assuming you have one and aren't just acting superior for no reason, of course.

I thought the general opinion consensus on this was that those 1000 "extra" spots were not really to be filled with newly net recruited staff but most likely with relocated existing personnel/roles eventually. No?
Don't think so. And where would they take these 1000 people from? The US and Germany? They don't have that many people there.
Chris is talking about the UK office becoming the largest CIG one by recruiting loads of new people.
