Let's see, how much of this work is meaningless fidelity distractions that just waste dev cycles that should be allocated to things like, oh I dunno, "gameplay" and "building a revolutionary internetworking architecture that can support 1000 players" and "player economy with 1 million simulated actors" etc...

Great job Chris Roberts! I would like to PERSONALLY thank you for saving PC gaming and wrestling it back from the hands of greedy publishers who just shovel out empty assets over pre-existing engines as a ruse to steal money from gullible gamer idiots! All 16 of your shell companies are my hero Chris Robert!

So, we were discussing how CIG is going to make the whales angry if ships were too easy to earn in-game and would probably make everyone else angry if ships took long enough to earn in-game for the whales to feel their money was well spent.
I think EA may have found out just how much people would not like the Battlefront equivalent of a really long grind for ships. One of their community team replies on the Star Wars Battlefront reddit has something in the area of 137,000 downvotes on the topic of Vader being locked by a really long grind.

Of course, CIG's masterful way of avoiding this problem will be to never actually finish the game, so... Chris Roberts 1 - EA 0?

Gamers are stupid enough to not cancel their preorders/buy the game regardless how much p2w EA is shoving in this shitpile. I hope they add even more stuff to it, the complete game should cost around 1500�
