[...] StarCitizen 1.0 is now going to be like 5 star systems[...]

What a joke )))))))))))

Thee original 100 star system pitch was screen loading to a point of interest from orbit through a cutscene.

This.

That's Starfield, only somehow a lot better 10 years earlier.

Its infinitely easier to do that than what we ended up with, also... no multicrew ships with that.

We probably have over 100 locations now in the PU. So in terms of locations, I'd say the pu has more already

Comparing to Starfield is arguably very low hanging fruit tbh.

That's the point, its what we would have ended up with. no thanks...

total aside bordering on almost irrelevance.... is that Jake Weber (actor from medium) doing the ships computer voice? if so is he in the game?

if so he is not credited on imdb but it does sound like him imo

Oh look, another release date has been declared for SQ42 for CIG to blow through/change/ignore completely.

 

[Curlyriff]

It's possible they just silently admit defeat, get it to an ok'ish state and then try get on a NMS style redemption arc by releasing all the stuff they promised as free updates over time. I think this is what will happen.

That is pretty much what 1.0 already is as they have already said significant things will come after and that 1.0 is their limited scope. No way it arrives before 2028 though.

Wouldn't worry about it. I think humbug is younger than you and he crashes into space stations and other ships a lot by the sounds of it.

I have the wreckage to prove it too. Pretty sure all of us in pagan have videos of humbug crashing something !

 

[TonTom]

This looks superb.

 

[humbug]

This looks superb.

It actually is.... its a lot of fun, its exciting, its intense, its difficult, really... don't mess about doing this it will get you the moment you're not at your best, Graphically.... while that is subjective and all that.. look at it, the graphics are some of the best i've seen and it doesn't require a £1000 GPU to run smoothly at 1440P, run's nice on a GPU costing half that, Unlike some UE5 games that don't look half as good.

Yeah, for all the valid criticism.... CIG did good here, its a bit like when i first saw Squadron 42 Chapter one being played at the last CitCon, looks like an amazing game, did not expect that i'll be honest, i think when CIG put their mind to it they can make good game loops.... not just an amazing tech demo. If they do more of this when they are done with the tech stuff? The game might just turn out as good as we all hope.
