Sadly cars are starting to offer similar vapourware to CiG. You can buy 'Enhanced Autopilot' and 'Full Self-Drive Capability' for your Tesla, but better read the fine print ...

Between 2014 and even as late as 2017 you'd hear the refrain for the faithful "At least SC will release as a finished quality product and not as an unfinished buggy product like a certain other space game" (meaning ED).
Over time that refrain would stop being used as even the faithful started to realize they were not getting a finished product that was anything but stable.
And yeah, funny how they said that the cinematic limited landing zones was going to be part of the BDSSE which, at the time, they said was going to be amazing. Now what do they have? Planets dotted with procgen stations that all look pretty much the same. So basically the same as ED and Starfield.
Comments are fun
Bwess the tiny maker and his tiny water
Bwess the itty bitty coming and going of him
May his wittle passage cweanse the world
May he keep the world for his teeny people
They've been building the tools for over 10 years and still not finished. I think their hope is in vain.
This makes sense. Following exponential pace of development, the next no-star system is going to take twice as long as Pyro, the one after it four times as long etc.
(Stanton is not ready yet, right?)
Cool. New turrets to shoot at.
There's one tool that's been building for nearly 57 years.....
.....shame he's running things really
So...no different from my comparatively cheap Land Rover then? It's got autonomous braking, adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, park assist, cornering assist, advanced trailer assist, automatic terrain control assist, driver fatigue sensing...lots more...it's even got a fridge in the center cubby box between the front seats big enough for a 2L carton of milk and a few sandwiches... It also self updates the software via a live internet connection, either with the onboard data sim card or via wifi.
The majority of the driver aids, like the park assist are also hands free in case I suddenly find a use for both my hands instead of steering.
It's nice that they're there and all that, thankfully, besides the safety related features like autonomous braking, most are selectable and optional...but as idiot proof driving aids go, I've never found a real use for any of them.

Berks captured a wurmie. Wonder if you'll be able to capture the full size one in a cap ship?
Do citizens still praise the fidelity anymore?
The worm doesn't have a body and isn't affected by momentum or air resistance, how did it e en pass Chris Roberts' quality control?
All the time.

We could start a SC group praising infidelity?

Welcome to boom season...
Collision Physics Update
Ship Collision damage handling is now done using full collision data passed down by physics. This means mass and speed is now fully calculated in the collision and will make collision damage between all ships, big and small, behave more realistically.

Not any more...but yes, relatively speaking...they're not quite in the Tesla wondercar price bracket. Certainly not mine...it's 8 years old and second hand
There's a Ci~G/Tesla analogy here though...
The point I kinda failed to make was that the Musk dude is a bit like Ci~G and reinventing the wheel the long way around...all of this supposedly 'new' and fantabulous autonomous technology he's trying to flog in his wondercars already existed...even in my 8 year old second hand Disco. Unlike his wondercars though, Land Rovers aren't generally known for randomly bursting into flames in the car park at Tesco and all of the fancy tech works just dandy
