It's been released and it's great, evocati testers are doing missions and having a great time right now, I'm sure they'd tell us all about it but there's a strict NDA to prevent spoilers. If you're in the evocati tester group and it's not working for you, that's because only some evocati users have it (obviously).

Yes, but then they failed to even show anything from it during their CitizenCon in November (although they promised to show something, and allegedly they were preparing something).
They did show powerpoint slides that revealed that they have about nothing actually done for it and everything is pending.

Now, it is TBD (and people assume it's going to be next year, but only the prelude, because apparently, gently caress, this garbage that is still unsure to be made, (let alone be successful) has already planned DLC and episodes and sequels.

There is a secret build where everything works.

They are also building 3.0 totally separated from 2.6 because magic.

It will all come together like everybody expects due to incredible and genius planning and resource management. The pieces will cling together like Lego bricks and function as both Sq42 and Star Citizen both come to life under the watchful gaze of Chris "Cokeman" Roberts.

This is unironically not only what the backers think, but what Chris Roberts himself thinks. In Chris Roberts' version of reality, "Zoom! Enhance!" is a thing. If something is visible, no matter how bad it is, you can "fix" it over time, making the lovely thing good, and making the broken thing function. It's just a matter of throwing enough money at the problem.

Agreed. I think what's the issue for me is that there are people out there theory-crafting this whole thing away, as if I don't have better things to do with my time but to make stuff up - and blatantly lie - for the hell of it.

As they say, the worse thing for those people is not that croberts was wrong; it's that dsmart was right - about anything.

Just this past Oct, I wrote a lengthy blog explaining why it's absolutely ludicrous for anyone to believe croberts when he said that 3.0 was out this year - and hopefully before Dec 16th; when (according to my sources), he knew full well that it simply wasn't true. He just lied.

Now, even looking at the Powerpoints he put up for 2.6 to 4.0, it's clear that this isn't an issue of "missed schedules", but just utter nonsense. Just like all the times before that. Heck, look how many time they've shifted the 2.6 schedule they posted. Sure developments slip, but the effect is that they may as well not have even released it because they're doing the same (missing dates) thing anyway.

And based on those lies, he raised almost $15 million dollars from backers who trusted that he was actually telling the truth.

Here we are on Dec 5th, with a Dec 8th date for 2.6 going to the PU, and aside from the fact that it's buggy as hell, they will try to push it out regardless because there is a holiday sale coming up.

And just like that, everyone has seemingly forgotten that 3.0 was due out in Dec. But here we are arguing about SM (which is worse than any CryEngine mod btw) being in 2.6.

And judging by the fact that they want to release SQ42 in the first half of 2017; it stands to reason that as buggy as 2.6 currently is, not to mention all the lingering 2.5x bugs they have yet to fix, 3.0 is going to be a mid to late 2017 release, thus pushing 4.0 into 2018 - if they survive that long. In fact, I would even say that 3.0-3.3 won't even make it until sometime in Q4/17. Go look see half the crap that's in 3.x and you tell me how confident you are that it's going to be completed in 2017, just in time for 4.0 to roll out.

So this argument about SM is just a foolish distraction. The end result when it's released is that CIG - after receiving over $137 million dollars - somehow managed to release a crappy fps CryEngine mod that's hardly playable, let alone worthy of note.

It's all lies.

Derek, you delusional old man you: SM WAS in the build. I watched it with mine own eyes, dearest. I watched as my friend played it against 15 others, leaning around corners (because, 'lo and behold: they instituted cover mechanics). I also watched it as they released an FPS ONLY BUILD to further enhance the testing.

I also watched this:



...which is the latest build to hit evocati. But you know this right? You know all of this because of your seventy-billion evocati accounts, correct?
