You're not in the 'supporting the development' camp then! How much did you lose? Can you get a refund?

You have a link for that?
Just watched the last few minutes of the SQ42 vid (26 min, what are they smoking?)
Chris: “When we have a locked release date you will be first to know”
But this time is feature complete. For reals. Trust me.
That was the awesome announcement? You can’t make this biowaste up.

Sorry, I watched it back. 12 months was for everything presented before the Squadron section. I updated my comment.
If I were CR, I would never give a date again. And I guess with no publisher on his back he won't have to.
Yeah, lots of waffle about being in the polishing stage, blah blah. We heard the exact same stuff in 2014 re SQ42. 9 years and they are still offering up the same guff.
So, here's a thought. SQ42 requires working Vanduul in game. Does anyone think if CIG had working Vanduul they wouldn't have shouted it from the highest rooftops?
Let's mark their words and check how much of this handwavium will really happen 12 months from now, and in which state...
I still not have enough time to waste for watching what they crunched for those past months. But I assume Golgot will have a lot of work during 2024.
Well after watching that SQ42 demo looks like that Croberts now expecting in following year more&more citizens to ask that annoying question:"Where is my game?" so that's why his been calling SC faithful warriors to HOLD THE LINE!!!

Love isn't always on time!!! Oh yeah!
And...
The faithful living in their own little bubble of reality.
Also, got to laugh. After years of being told no Pyro until server meshing is in.... they are adding Pyro without server meshing, undermining years of excuses from the faithful.
So, if they can add new systems without SM, where are all the systems that the faithful declared were just waiting on SM to be added?
Wasn't Odin meant to be complete since its needed for SQ42? Or are they holding that back because checks notes spoilers.
I mean, this is some of the stuff I think should be going in to PU in that 'next 12 months' time frame. Is that what you meant?
Hairstyles (and beards yay!)
Improved water
Fire, with gameplay loop
Better collision damage
Blood, sweat, tears and hygiene
DLSS2 & Ray tracing
Cloth physics
Updated UI including star map (thank f...!)
More depth to Reputation system
Rework of FPS gameplay, weapons
Combat and Navigation modes for spaceships
Ship engineer, for ship systems and repairs
Updated in-space movement
They won't put Pyro in Live without server meshing though, will they?
It looks like Infinite Warfare 2, which is OK, I guess. It is interesting how they are not worried about spoilers anymore, even if the game still does not exist.

With a couple exceptions that is pretty much all updated visuals and UI stuff. Shiny. Where is the PU economy, and all aspects that need to integrate with it, including all the types of related nodes, production chains and all the economy integration with the rest of the game (related missions, reputation, org territory control etc etc).
In other words where is all the staff that is supposed to make this mmo an actual mmo? Seems very little of that was discussed in this CitCon. Tony Z absence is amazing and an eye opener. Seems CIG is happy letting SC rot as a mediocre static arena session as long as the shiny stuff helps them sale jpgs.
I mean, having cool hair and tattoos is nice, but where is the frikking game?

By live do you mean the PU, the PTU, or the new preview channel (ie: the pre-alpha, the pre-pre-alpha, or the pre-pre-pre-alpha)?
CIG said it was coming to the preview channel soon(TM), without SM. After that, i guess it will either a) be pulled, not to be seen again until next Citizen Con, or b) will make its way into the PTU then the PU.
No no You already answer the call and the voice from the other side told you to HOLD THE LINE!!!
11+ years, 600+ million dollars.... mainly basic stuff, including lots that come part of game engines as standard these days or require little work to implement.
12 months to add these, with around 1000 employees.
Absoloutely shocking.
Answer the line, hold the call!
“Please hold, your call is very important to us.”
It's real...real animation from UE5 or something other than their game.
CR also said something like if things take longer than 10 months, they become stale. Who knew he wasnt referencing how long they'd take to release an alpha?
Looking forward to them selling ice-hole cutting tools, for ice fishing on other worlds. But if you dont cut it right, it breaks the ice..you know...for fidelity. Also...will be 10 more years till they can release the game, because they cant get the ice-cutting thing to work as CR wants it.
Lets say we're all proven wrong...that'd mean SC is released and we can go in, play it, and actually discuss the game. That is the actual purpose of this thread. So, it'll just be how we all hoped it would be, 8 years ago. Somehow, I dont think that will be the case. But, yes, I'd be floored, but happy to be proven wrong.
As it stands, my guess is it's still a con-job and what they've shown is more fluff...and it's working....yes! indeed! CR has done it!...that crazy has lured potential billions to his coffers instead of mere millions.
That's what suggests to me it's just a loading screen/system. When SC was able to run on my PC, a few years ago, QT took 15 to 20 minutes to go just to another planet. If that time is any shorter, to other people, it's because their PC loads it faster....hence, a loading system. Err, I know some ships/drives make this faster/slower though.
