Hard to know which is more amusing - those two previous posts from people who finally took a look at what they've actually got, or all the (upvoted) citizens who immediately jumped on them with such classics as:

• "can't compare with GTA they had 15000 people on it from the start",
• "that other game which only took 6 years was so much less impressive than this one",
• "you only feel this way because the development of this game is so open,
• "those other games didn't have to rewrite the engine with 64-bit coordinates",
• "most of the good gameplay and other work is going into S42 which we can't see yet",
• and most of all: "they're still building tech!"

Chris is very well-known and has a very good record, so a bad launch would be specially disappointing, also given how this game will have a total of AT LEAST 8 years in development....

I'd say Chris is more known for leading projects into development hell these days.

If it doesn't get cancelled completely due to CIG's currently poor economic situation.

All those whales will be crying over spilt milk at not ever being able to fly their cap ships. At least jpegs will never fade.

So Space Game Junkie live streamed Star Citizen 3.3 (current test versions) for about 2hrs, from the perspective of a newbie to the game.

Draw your own conclusions.

ps: He subsequently uninstalled it.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, some of the commandos think Hurston is coming next week.

I can't post the link because of the crappy spam filter.

[dsmart]

There's nothing wrong with the spam filter. New accounts have restrictions on posting external links.

Anyway, they're morons. 3.3 isn't even out of testing yet, it's still shit etc. But yeah, Hurston (which is in 3.3.5) is totally coming in 3.3. Just ignore and move on.

It's just insane the amount of money spent for such a disjointed mess!  There is no rhyme or reason to it!  They could have at least tried to make it fun.. or add some humor to it... at least a few laughs for each hundred million dollars collected.

Information running is going to be fun...

That's what happens when you focus on making money via pretty pictures, than on proper game design and scheduling

To quote what an avid player/backer posted on SA:

Crusader was released in 2015. It has been 3 years. In that time they have added:

* Moons
* A whole lot of ships where only the pilot's station is fully implemented and nothing else is remotely done
* A couple of quest givers that don't work 80% of the time
* In-game trading consoles that do not work 70% of the time and an economy that is completely broken
* 7-8 FPS enemies that don't work 50% of the time
* Pirates you can fight except hey guess what they don't work a lot of the time
* Random interception by NPC's, then they took it out again because it broke everything
* Mining but only if you buy this one ship over here
* A new gas station
* New pipelines, so many new pipelines

I would not call this substantial development of DLC in a released game, much less a game in full-time development with hundreds of devs working round-the-clock to pump it out, making it immune from all criticism.

These poor long-term brainwashed souls are finally hearing some of the wake-up calls as they feign confusion and bewilderment at CIG & CR's ponzi shenanigans in their frustration. Only a rare few of them I bet will ever admit 'DS was right' all along.

What are all these CIG developers doing all day for months years on end ?

There is only so much time you can waste in an office job even if you do need to spend a lot of time cracking one off in the toilets, hanging around the staff kitchen and doing unproductive "meetings".
