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

[mediocrepoet]

I was referring to the game itself. I have not been keeping track of his specific purchases

You can level all sorts of valid complaints about D4, but P2W is just wrong and silly.

D:I the phone game is the P2W one.

I backed this project when I saw the FPS component. That sold me. I wrote this game off originally because I had zero interest in a space only game.

It'd be awesome if they had a space game where you could fly a ship and then get out and shoot stuff. That's totally worth throwing thousands of dollars at to hope something like it could get on the market some day!

Spoiler

Or maybe one that focuses more on the ground stuff and not so much on the flying.

Spoiler

Maybe some day, you could even have a cinematic game that would feature flying a ship, space battles, and running around on foot and getting into gun fights! Hopefully I'll still be alive when this future tech arrives!

Spoiler

Ah, who am I kidding? That'll never happen. Better kick in another few thousand on some jpegs in hopes that Chris Roberts delivers before the heat death of the universe.

What the hell bruh, not mentioning Spacebourne 2.

It'd be really crazy though if an indie dev made a game where you could fly a ship and run around outside the ship shooting stuff before Star Citizen even launched a feature complete demo.

Spoiler

I suppose that's just a pipe dream. I'll stop my fantasy land rambling and get back to reality, where I can take out a HELOC and wire it directly to Chris Roberts' "more yachts" fund.

Lrn2rd. That and you can only have 5 media links in a single post.

Can't, reading is a sign of civilization.

Single player games aimed towards shitters who don't PvP are of no interest to me.

That's fair. Out of curiosity, would it be more reasonable to describe the current incarnation of Star Citizen as a PVP ground and space battle game or an explode in hangar simulator?

Jumptown, SPK, Ghost Hollow, are all "ground" combat PvP locations. Not to mention the trade sites for RMC. But SC is lacking several things which tie those together

1. Meshing (Everything depends on this, but the last test was very good)
2. Spawn Points (latest changes helped a bit, but not as much as I would want)
3. A reason to fight.

I could write a novel on how to get combined arms working in SC but this is not the place for it. So, to answer your question I would describe SC as neither of those. It isn't a game nor is it common to blow up in your hanger. It's a tech test with promise.

I mostly sit in arena commander PvPing, only to come out and kill retards in the PU when they get together in one location for an event.

BuzzCutPsycho we going, right?

kill retards in the PU

Ironic.

Very impressive indeed, 14 seconds without a crash.

I can't get over the fact that he enjoys this "1+ million gaming studio" sitting in front of an office desk, on an average-looking office chair, raising his head in a way that's bound to be uncomfortable.

Get a couch, man.

Imagine building your own private cinema, and the only sit you get is right in the front row where everyone avoids buying tickets for... a vr headset would be... Oh hold up...

This isnt out yet I take it. What happened with that last big update wasnt that 'Jesus Patch 4.0 for-real-this-time-we-swears-it-now-buy-more-jpegs' or whatever? How did that pan out?

[mediocrepoet]

I thought this take was pretty much spot on.

Took him long enough. Wonder how long until the pyramid scheme collapses.

Maybe the money we got from you along the way was a game!

Star Citizen rivals systemd in how much creep it has.
