yeah I didn't feel the need to touch that with a ten foot pole. I never knew Vilerat and I never played EVE, but that was obviously a low blow intended to make people mad, as well it should - that's a pretty hosed up shot to take.

I did both and he can go gently caress himself.

I mean, seriously, insert his keyboard into his anus sideways. No, don't worry about the wrist-rest, you'll be surprised at the ability of the sphincter to stretch. But just mash that thing right up inside.

I feel like it's wrong to focus exclusively on the shifting nature of 3.0, without also going further back. Wasn't 3.0 itself just a rebranded 2.7? Which was itself the catch all Jesus patch for everything that was being promised for the original 2.4 (think that was the first Jesus number if I remember right).

I'd be really curious if anyone had original proposed content on those patches back when they were being bandied about as the next great thing.

The Next Steps
After we played for a while to make a picture for ourselves about the technological background (of the game) at Foundry 42, we naturally wanted to know, when it will be playable live. Chris Roberts told us what the next steps to update the alpha builds for backers will look like.

First there will be an update to version 2.5 soon. This contains a new space station for the existing mini universe(see box on page 14). "The station is more targeted at players, that lets say want to move beyond the law", explains Roberts. The allusion refers to the pirate base named Grim Hex, which was shown recently by Cloud Imperium Games in their Online-Video-Show "Around the Verse" shortly. Grim Hex is the opposite to the already existing station Port Olisar in the playable Stanton System. "With that we want to enable the gameplay between two factions, to see, what the players will make of it", so Roberts.

After that follows 2.6, in which the developers want to introduce the First-Person-Shooter-Module Star Marine. Star Marine will be played outside of the persistant universe, like the already existing module Arena Commander, in which one can test his piloting skills. It is specially designed for multiplayer shooter sessions, with separate levels. "We have invested very much time into the FPS-mechanics, which will be very noticeable if compared to the actual rudimentary systems in 2.4", says Roberts. The developer show us a corresponding gameplay segment, which leaves an excellent impression: Animation, controls and weapon feeling were thoroughly overhauled, so that for a shooter player it really feels good. The result: Seamless movements and clean gunplay – keep it up!

With version 2.7 CIG wants to implement procedural planet technology into the live universe. In the first step it will for the first time become possible to travel the complete Stanton System. At the moment version 2.4 contains only parts of it, in whcih which one can't land on planets or space ports. This will change fundamentally. "Version 2.7 is the next big step for us, which will contain much more playable content for our backers", remarks Roberts. Planets and Moons in the Stanton System will be directly approachable and the players can land on them, like on the afore mentioned Outlaw-Base Grim Hex. With following patches more landing zones will find their way into the Stanton System, like for example Hurston and Microtech, two important corporation locations in the Star Citizen Universe. The proclaimed target of CIG is, to make Stanton playable in its full extent before the end of 2016, with all stations and landing zones, which Roberts estimates to 40 locations. It shall also be possible, to play considerably more missions... end...

Then they pull the ol' switcheroo we are no longer burning down to 2.7, we are burning down to 3.0. We have always been burning down to 3.0.

I got this one, Toops.

You know, I get really annoyed when I hear people saying "How come the single player campaign isn't in Solar Plebeian yet?" and stuff like that, because single player - I mean it was just a gamemode used to be a testbed for the mechanics that were going to go into the full game. Things like bird collection and ramming spaceships, that's already in there now. You're already playing it!
