CIG also argued at one point that sure, they are using lumberyard now 100%, but even if they were still using their old cryengine code it doesn't matter because cryengine is free now

when I'm at court I expect this to be the strategy they go for

"yeah yeah see, sure it uses cryengine still which is also lumberyard but if its not lumberyard we still haven't done anything wrong"

Uh

Still think they owe licensing fees regardless of whether CE is now free.

Hey its been months, maybe the better parts of half a year, since I've checked them on Star citizen

Don't worry, I already know the answer to the questions that's been at the back of my mind:

Yes star ctizen is probably still going
Yes the funding probably is still linear on the homepage
Yes of course hundreds of thousands The people have definitely totally signed up
Yes of course the release date is sometime before 2022, an actual literal decade
Yes, the stans are probably still brainwashed

Oh no! I just checked his Twitter and he has a long rambling video about how he’s retiring from streaming all together. He’s in tears for half of it, while thanking his streaming “family”, dear god what a mess. Apparently he just doesn’t have enough time to keep up with it and his audience was niche upon niche to put it mildly.

Holy gently caress, this guy was still streaming?

The funny thing is, if the Steam Charts numbers are to be believed, Squadrons is honestly doing pretty poorly. It's peeled back from its launch high of about 35k concurrent players down to _maybe_ 2k at peak hours. It's currently #221 on steam charts in terms of players. And this is a Star Wars game that harkens back to X-Wing.

I expect that this is because the game is loving hard, but not necessarily bad. The flight model is decidedly not Warthunder's Arcade mode or Freelancer style (from what I recall) mouse driven movement. My friends who tried to play with KB/Mouse have already given up. I don't think we're in the minority here. I think that people wanting a space sim shooter have realized how invested you have to be to enjoy them.

I enjoy Squadrons, but I think the market is decidedly much smaller than most think for a sim-style space combat game. And I think it was priced such that EA could dip its toes in that market to see if it would get any bites, but right now it has fewer players than Battlefield 1.

Chris could have stumbled into this kind of success too had he chosen an engine actually suited for the game

like, Star citizen could have been out as an okay to play but disappointingly shallow single player experience a couple of years ago if the engine wasn't fighting them at absolutely every single last possible step along the way
