Game Discussions Star Citizen Discussion Thread v12

hmmm struggling with the quote button, it wont let me quote anything :/



@ECity touche! however i will take 2026 if it does make it out then.....

not watched all of the citizencon stuff.... base building however is something i could enjoy, my concerns are will other players be able to ransack our stuff? because if so i am not gonna bother. i may only play once every month or so so i have no interest in berks blowing up my stuff for lolz when i am asleep.

personally i would love it if i could just play as a single player game like privateer (wing commander and privateer being the reason why i backed SC). this whole focussing on multiplayer is killing gaming for me..... but i guess i am not the demographic for this game.

however IF they concentrated on single player - or possibly low number multiplayer using P2P among friendss and therefore no issues with all the server meshing etc, i believe they could have released by now.

Is that an existing toy or the station core photoshopped into a Beyblades package? I couldn't find a similar looking toy, so I guess it's not real.
It's still a funny picture, though.

Ah yep, good spot. Def photoshop:

come on .... i am no flag waving star citizener but calling them out for plagerism over that is beyond a stretch. (not blaming the people here for falling for it but for the people who made the fake image to begin with.

people are so desperate to make CIG the "big bad" they undermine any legitimate concerns they have.... the haters are just as rabbid and toxic as the fanboys who attack anyone with legitimate concerns, and we could do without either of them imo.

i mean some of the space stations in elite Frontier/1st encounters / dangerous (edit and also the Blue danube docking music) are definitely paying homage to 2001 a space odyssey way more than that bayblade (and imo the name of EDs last DLC expands on that homage)...... but that is fine!. its how things work. (to be clear i am not calling out FD for plagiarism )

sorry if posted already and i missed it.
but for those of us who want a more optimistic look at a summation of citizencon but want it quickly......

To be fair to CiG - did anyone else ever put a Crow's Nest on space station? Never done before!

Hmm, so you're saying there is nothing new - and anyone complaining otherwise is someone you'd want to put in their own office to keep them away from people with a sense on humour? Possible I guess :)

Anyway - TANKS ON SPACE STATIONS! TOTALLY UNPRECEDENTED!

Edit: Googling for 'tanks on space stations' brings back a completely different set of results :D

I thought so too, but apparently, now you can...I didn't use spare store credit to do the deed like I usually do for CCU's. I used a Mule LTI token I had already CCU'd to something else + cash to grab the warbond Starlancer. Gutted that the loaner is a Freelancer max, the loaner for the TAC version of the Starlancer is a MIS :rolleyes:

Unless it's a store bug that Ci~G haven't picked up on amidst all the citcon excitement. 🤷‍♂️

I was going to give you stick for buying the Mule, but then remembered I own the Supercarrier DCS expansion... and Combined Arms.
 
i have no idea of your reference however what else would you call people who use photoshop to fake images and use them to spread FUD that CIG are plagiarizing peoples work?

its just the other side of the same coin of those who get agressive when people ask awkward questions about issues with the game imo

Had no idea it was photoshopped or was a beyblade thing. Someone posted it on the refunds stuff. I'll point it out there if someone hasn't already done so.

EDIT: looks like the refunds mods spotted it already and have deleted the post.
 
Yes, they directly said you will be able to raid other people's bases (not sure if that includes destroy or damage, because if so, that would be hilarious).

And remember, they also sold the A2 bomber, so you can do bombing runs on people's bases!

Unless... you paid real money for a land claim.

Let me guess....there's LTI & warranties for bases too :oops:
 
2M sales from Citcon:


According to https://ccugame.app/star-citizen-funding-dashboard/funding-dashboard - which can display historical sales - they got over 5M last year (though they use a 6 day window so it will be a few days before 2024 is added). Time to open those wallets backers!

I bet Chris Roberts charges his own company an appearance fee, I mean he sold them back the rights to his own IP and I can just see him assuming it's "Hollywood standard" to charge for his appearance.

Maybe that's why we only see him twice a year. Once in his Elizabeth Holmes/Therano scam inspired cos-play keynote and one at the "proof of life" dividends remuneration directors meeting lunch. That's probably all the "Chris time" his own company can afford these days.
