Vapourware Scam Citizen - Only people with too much money can become StarCitizens! WOULD YOU LIKE TO KNOW MORE?

Jesus, sorry I asked.

And to think that's where half of this game's budget is going to.

SQ42 teaser with Mark Hamill:

It blows my mind that this isn't CGI. 16nm GPUs can't come soon enough.

 

[Drax]

The guy's likable even when he's basically just doing fetch-quests for a couple of bucks.

here is one more (mostly about their tech):

 

[Makabb]

Man Mark Hamill, one of my favourite actors. How not to get hyped?

 

[Country_Gravy]

I would say that is some shit acting, but I think that does some injustice to shit acting.

That was high school drama club quality.

Teaser - 0:33
Squadron 42: Behind the Scenes - Mark Hamill - 3:42
Squadron 42: Behind the Scenes - Character Pipeline - 7:23
Squadron 42: Interview with Mark Hamill - 4:51

So there is a 3,34% of real content in this influx of Mark Hamill teaser videos. 1:30 content:shit ratio.
And for a moment I was wondering there if they really have a game "close" to some kind of limited release, or it's just a PR action of dumping whatever they have to show "progress".

Go Team Derek :D
At least he provides genuine and challenging entertainment (with the challenge laying in the length of his rants)

That is why she is doing marketing and some mocap

You're too kind to her. That was LARPing at the table quality acting by a toddler.

 

[hello friend]

"I said I wasn't doing any SW."

"SC. SQ42."

[Drax]

Yeah that was pretty dumb.

 

[DramaticPopcorn]

Out of all of their voice actors they have in Squadron 42, I'm most excited about John Rhys-Davies. Here's a fun interview he did with a German gaming site.

Pretty much all the marketing I've heard for SQ42 has been about the voice actors. The voice actors. I don't even have any concept of what the game is about, but I know they apparently thought it was a good idea to spend a shitload of money motion capturing a bunch of recognizable actors for what I assume is supposed to be some kind of Wing Commander-style game. There is something seriously wrong here if the voice actors are what they're most eager to show off.

You do know. Plus economy based universe you can play online and offline.

 

[Country_Gravy]

Plus actors you might have heard of. Slam dunk!

 

[Drax]

Plus you get to LARP your SW/ST/ME fantasy with your fellow nerds in your own server without mouth-breathers.
At least that's the idea...

I was just guessing based on the fact that this is a Chris Roberts project and it's focusing on real actors. What other reason would they have for hiring all these a- and b-list celebrities? Based on your description, though, it sounds like another case of Roberts promising more than he can possibly deliver, so I'm not surprised the marketing is focusing on something so trivial as the actors.

If this were simply a modern Wing Commander game it would have been finished by now. Oh... and it would have cost only a quarter of the money they've pulled in so far... Not surprising people are wondering what the fuck is going on.
