It's still a huge scam targeting the wish-fulfillment of nerds. It will either never be made and the company will go bankrupt, or it will come out years from now and be laughably mediocre.

No, almost everyone in the thread has given up on it coming out and gotten refunds. Derek Smart still posts in it daily and apparently doxxed a handicapped kid not too long ago, though.

Nothing happened to Chris Roberts' Star Citizen (and Squadron 42)

It just turns out that creating the worlds most complex and detailed MMO takes some time. The trolls just hate Chris just like they hate everyone who's successful. GTA 5 took 6 years to make yet I haven't heard anyone complain about Rockstar being a bad developer. Sure, there's been some bumps in the road but that happens with all big and forward looking projects. The bottom line is this: at the end of the day you can trust Chris to create a revolutionary space MMO. It might not happen today, it might not happen tomorrow, but it's gonna happen. Great things will come.

Do people really play games like these (EVE online, this)? I mean do they just play to make Real Life money or do they legitimately like the game play?

For the amount of money sunk into this thing they could have made the game by now.

most people only play poo poo like EVE and Elite because those are the only games on the market. Tbh most of these pre- Star Citizen MMOs and space games are pretty drat basic. I wouldn't be surprised if most of the player base moves to SC the moment it releases. Can't really blame these people either. After years of mediocre poo poo it's not surprising that Star Citizen attracts such a following

Well, it isn't like money just magically equals faster. But they should never have given the timeline they did, and they probably shouldn't have given any timeline until a good year or so in given how much the scope of that poo poo changed with more money. I think they genuinely didn't expect to be as good at taking money as they were though.

Oh god I made a serious post about SC, I fell for it :downsgun:

i trust chris not to gently caress this up, and I look forward to playing his game when it's on a 95% holiday discount in the shovelware section of Steam

Star Citizen is a self-contained product with it's own launcher, so it probably won't appear on Steam. Also, while it is you right to wait for a discount I do hope you will end up buying at full price and thus rewarding a developer who actually cares about their game.

even if they do ever finish star citizen and somehow magically do everything they promise, the game will still suck rear end because to get the best stuff you need to be a turbonerd who spends literal thousands of dollars on fake videogame spaceships that dont exist

Yeah, I guess you goons are looking really silly right about now. 2.0 released to the PTU and no signs that this project is failing like some of you claim. Even Mark loving Hamil is hyped and said he trusts Chris to make the best game of the current generation (HALO 2 still GOAT).

Here's my advice to anyone who still has some sense left in them: swallow your misplaced pride and buy a package now before the game releases and you'll be set for a loving decade. 11 / 10 IGN
