My prediction for big reveal is new planetary landings mechanics - he hinted at more freestyle approach to them than they'd previously shown in a 10FTC a few weeks back.

Like serious question regarding all their one shot ships with insane engineering debt.

Santa Monica is mostly where their marketing, design, cs, executive team is at right? Germany is where their FPS people are at. Austin is where their dead lay (and network IT people are at), and Manchester is where the majority of everything else is being made. Everything points to the guys in Manchester being almost fully committed to SQ42 and if that somehow gets released next year it'll be by years end (first episode out of like 10). The sort of systems they keep trying to add to the game aren't simple things, how do they realistically think they'll get this out within a reasonable time frame?

Every single time another one of this ships comes out it reinforces my belief that SC would make more money in a perpetual state of development than actually releasing something concrete.

Nope. There was some big citizen con a while back where Chris opened the floor up for questions from the crowd. Some random idiot got the first question and that is what he asked.

Not good enough, it has to be a B-24 refuelling a B-17 in a zero gravity environment, otherwise it doesn't count.
