Pshhhh. If this game ever releases, MoMA will be free to take his place along side all the other goons in trying to drag some fun out of this wretched thing. Y'all might have different opinions, but if a decent game comes out of this I'd have hoped we wouldn't say "no MoMA, you disagreed with us when we were wrong so you can't join us!".

That's always been the best part about this whole saga. If the one in a million chance of the game coming out and being good actually happens, then goons are going to loving own the show as usual.

I don't mind MoMA flying with us as long as he provides a picture of his balls for identification purposes.

I like the way I got those.

I couldn't access my account nor recover my password. It said that email had no associated accounts. Messaged CIG support, showed proof of purchase and had my account back in minutes. I kept the $165 Super Hornet and the $100 Mustang Omega. :smug:

CIG might be shady and weird but I have no complaints about their customer support. It was quick and painless.

These people are so clueless. All his points were valid from a development point of view. Yes, technically they are still in preproduction. But these assholes are such a perfect example of Dunning–Kruger effect at work that they will never know just how stupid they really are. It makes me angry! Angry on the internet! :mad:

I also laugh a lot too.

I love that half the time they're telling people they don't understand game development, then when faced with someone who does they some how say he doesn't understand the particular black magic development being employed on this project, without a hint of self awareness.

The people that make these kinds of posts seem to have not 'got it'.
No-one blindly defends RSI - it's cool to have supported the realisation of this game even to this point, and have been a part of the development process. I don't expect anything to be delivered to me, because I chose to blindly support the development - not buy a game.
A lot of those bullet points can (and I'm sure will be) argued against, but for me I'm not pre-ordering and buying into the hype. I'm enjoying seeing this concept come to life, without the need for investors or release dates. It's the first time I've been excited about a studio simply getting to make something they want to.


No. No one is blindly defending RSI, no sireee.

You don't understand game development.

They are talking about Squadron 42 1.0. It is not supposed to have AI, docked ships or textured maps. Textured maps will be in with 2.0, AI with 3.5, cover mechanics with 4.2.

Once they reach 13.7, they will think about pre-alpha.

The plan is to release version 37.8 Service Pack 4.

Version 894 Service Pack 9518e23 is supposed to be the REAL Jesus Patch.

Still alpha though.

It's Eliezer's Waltz by The Ventura Klezmer Band. It was on Welcome to Night Vale ages ago. I just snipped a little off the start in the edit so Crobbler's rambling blended into it.

Man how sad this is, someone made an anti-SC forum, that's wasting a lot of time and effort to mock a doomed and dying project

I'm just wondering, I've followed this shitshow since 2013 and never noticed this "anti-SC forum" coming up in discussion on SA, weird. Must be something recent.

Does anyone have a link to this special "anti-SC forum" or does that only exist in a Star Citizen's dream?
