Since when does anything to do with star citizen involve a hard deadline. Roberts will never get finished. He lacks that basic ability.
I’m pretty happy with 4.0. They sucked all the features from it, and the missions are having problems. But the game fucking works, finally. Or at least it did during the first 24 hours of the patch. About fucking time.
That being said this whole shake up was clearly a cost saving strategy, since most of 2024 was not the best in term of making money, a LOT of people jumped shit this year, and I don’t blame them. CIG messed up so much this year. They have alot of goodwill to re-earn from the community and 4.0 is a start but only that.
Star Citizen is that the grift, I mean, game- that still has thousands of people fooled that it will actually be released?
I have a friend on discord trying to convince us all to play it. All I hear is “Dude, I want to get all my friends on before Pyro so you all know how to play”.
When a games got a whale shop while it’s developed, and the only thing I’ve seen pumped out are more ships with designs for future implementations that are probably a decade away, I feel like you’re more buying a hope and dream than a game.
Besides, the tutorial sucks ass, and doesn’t work half the time, maybe make the onboarding experience better before pumping out the next $1000+ ship. That would be my suggestion for that thing.
As of now, Star Citizen has raised $769,261,551. Three quarters of a billion dollars.
And now they say they need to fire the QA department to “laser focus” to meet the deadlines of the release. That’s when you need QA the most. Otherwise that release is going to be a fucking mess.
I call bullshit. This is a money saving decision, which means they’ve blown through their $760 million dollar bank account. Insane.
They have deadlines?
