Beginning to look like the funding chart
If there was no exploration, how could there be a video like this? (from 2017)There is no exploration.
I'd also mention the famous cloud tech, that would allow flying into gas giants such as Crusader, and maybe scoop fuel (*) which we should have byIf there was no exploration, how could there be a video like this? (from 2017)

It was sold for only $850. So a real bargain.Holy Christ, there’s always more...
But they didn't sell land
I have SC (and a few ships in there). There is no exploration. Currently there is only one star system, where everyone spawns in, with no unknown locations, no external portal to another system.
They really need to flatten that cur...wait, wrong thread.

Also there is no associated gameplay, in any way, like getting money for discoveries, checking new locations, discovering new species (and getting money for that for example), etc. Since everything is hand made, and not proc gen (dont get me started on that !) it's unlikely there will be anything like that ever.
Ships have absolutely zero system associated with exploration (like planetary or biological scanners, mapping tools, etc.) and even if you want to play pretend, there is currently a hard limit on how long you can stay away from a refuel station due to no in-space or on-surface refuelling. No hand tools (like a star trek tricorder) either.
The only thing people do at the moment is take screenshots and play pretend, while showing a scenery that tens of thousands other people have already seen, and multiple times even due to that subreddit that is basically a screenshot repository.
Also given how long it takes for CiG to craft a complete system (about 3 years i would say) by 2023 we might have a 2nd system complete. Everything in there will be "discovered" in a matter of days.
By the hypothesis you reach immortality and live long enough to see 100 systems delivered, well first chances are actual interplanetary space flight will be common by then, but yet again that's quite not enough to warrant any kind of "exploration".
Holy Christ, there’s always more...
Yeah that's what i called "play pretend", one can also make noises with their mouth to simulate the activation of scanners and whatnot..If you play SC or are familiar with the topic you ll get that people simply zip around to enjoy the vista cuz face it....there hardly is anything else to do and they call it "exploration".
Sometimes a bit of a face slap is needed for people to return to reality... I'm all for brutalizing the cultists just a bit, just to jiggle the neurons around, maybe something would connect in there.I m sure he could ve done it more respectful or humble tho
Sorry to be a n00b, but I have to ask - what is going on with that presentation? Crowd looks real, presenter looks fake - is it a person dressed as a SC NPC, or some fancy hologram of an NPC? Either way, I start to see where are the $$$ are goingIf there was no exploration, how could there be a video like this? (from 2017)

Nah, crowd is fake as well.Sorry to be a n00b, but I have to ask - what is going on with that presentation? Crowd looks real, presenter looks fake - is it a person dressed as a SC NPC, or some fancy hologram of an NPC? Either way, I start to see where are the $$$ are going
In addition to "opposing factions" there are new people in the thread who don't have context. My clarifications are primarily for newbies.Just an example how the opposing factions in the Star Citizen spectacle often speak right past each other
Chris Roberts wants to be a movie director / producer in Hollywood. I assume he spends a lot of time directing presentations like this.Sorry to be a n00b, but I have to ask - what is going on with that presentation?
Even CR refunded, when he sold SC IP to CIG for what was it, $3mil?.And if we extraplotate that growth, soon there will be more refundians than citizens!
If only they had put all that resource into making the game.If there was no exploration, how could there be a video like this? (from 2017)

In addition to "opposing factions" there are new people in the thread who don't have context. Also he's shilling for the game by advocating its features, low price and "generous" return policies. My clarifications are primarily for newbies.

Hey, i wouldn't call what Number 2 is doing shilling.
He also referred to years of delay as the "politics around the development time"Number2 said:If you want to give it a go you can have many hours of fun, no need to spend anymore than $45 on an Aurora... I still play at least once a month so it must have something.... Also the starter ships both have very good cockpit views if you just want to fly around and explore... I just had a look at their terms and conditions for refunds. They seem more generous than steam purchases...
