Well apparently they are only a quarter or two behind schedule. Not 5 years behind. Expect beta on sq42 next year around march April and release by September October next year if all goes well on the closed beta

Are you really that naive? Not a chance in hell is SQ42 releasing next year.
 
Definitely a weird development cycle. Although to be fair they didn't have a clue how to do a 1/10th of what they were promising early on. Been a long road of making mistakes and learning from what I can see. They do seem to be getting on top if it.
Just a huge amount of wasted work in between. But without the shiny shiny trailers and artwork would the money have kept coming in? Probably not.

Who knows, maybe this is the only way a fairly pioneering game like this can be made?

I was happy enough to take the punt they could pull it off. I think engine wise they soon will have. Still be very easy to trip on the last step and deliver an over complicated game that isn't fun!

i think it will deliver.

At its current state many people already love the game.

But let's be realistic, if they are unable to produce a roadmap in months, then it's not coming in the next 2 years.

Actually was thinking 7 years sounds about right based on current progress etc. For the PU that is. I can see SQ42 being an Xmas release 2021 tbh. It isn't bad thing. Even if they had got it ready this year (was never a chance considering flight model) competing against new consoles and games releases and cyberpunk etc would have eaten up their release.

"Origin" absolutely ruined the 350R when the re designed it.

The new one is awful

the old one was fantastic

Don't know about the 350R, never owned one, but i have owned a 325A for about 6 years, Its not as agile as it once was but at least it has a proper interior now, and it looks great, its also still a great fighter.
 
2016 325A... nostalgia reasons, this was my favourite time for Vandull Swarm. The flight model was simple, the audio was gloriously over the top..

Poor guy whose was with me in the Hornet never got a look in :D

 
I heard in the official SC forums that people who have spent serious coin have started writing their accounts in to their wills. Would be interesting to crunch the math and work out how many backers will have croaked before game is released.

I saw someone did this on Reddit with US figures. Can't remember how many but it wasn't single figures :p
