Star Citizen Roadmap Roundup Sees Several Cards Move to Polishing
The most recent roadmap roundup for Star Citizen announces several cards moving into polishing on the PU Roadmap.

Imagine having 600+ employees and spending $15 million or more per quarter but this is all you can deliver. Absolutely shameful.
No new gameplay loop added ... impressive indeed considering the costs to produce what is available so far
This is probably the most bizarre game we have ever seen for sure......
No, it's my hyperbolic opinion on the matter. Come on man, it should be pretty damn obvious....
Regardless, it still doesn't change the fact that it's a piss poor return on 3 months work (actually 6 months if the staggered development teams are leap-frogging).
The single hyperbol I am interested in to get out are Publishers and their copy-paste of games and now for the upcoming years, their "Remastered something"
The clowns as you said delivered an Alpha which have more unique features packed than any single triple-A released by multi-billions revenues companies.
SQ42 is half of the project. Until it is released, some will have an easy task to pretend it is a scam (even if defintion doesn't not amtch at all)... or pretend it is developed by clowns (because Anthem to be re-owrked from ground was developped by?).
Fine it does not matter. Those joining by ten thousands at every patch are able to enjoy a unique alpha game with quaterly patch.

Kyleran on yours sincerely
'But there are many. You can play them entirely solo, and even offline. Also, you are wrong by default.'
Ikcin in response to yours sincerely debating whether or not single-player offline MMOs exist...
'This does not apply just to ED but SC or any other game. What they will get is Rebirth/X4, likely prettier but equally underwhelming and pointless.
It is incredibly difficult to design some meaningfull leg content that would fit a space ship game - simply because it is not a leg game.
It is just huge resource waste....'
Gdemami absolutely not being an armchair developer
Big Boss Man had 25 years to fine tune his ideas on this 'dream' game: And 300+ mil down the pike it's still just a dream. Not close to a real game, too many real game loops MIA. But dreams sell well, 'cause you've got the ongoing excuses.
If you have a willing horse, beat him another mile....
If you are holding out for the perfect game, the only game you play will be the waiting one.
We got it: you want a date and nothing ambitious and totally missed that this project is not driven by CR alone but +1.2 million individual backers, growing everyday because they want something bold and ambitious rather than a shalow copy of space game.
By the way: kickstarter was not a thing 25 years back. What publishers served us during the last two decades proved CR would have had zero support from publishers beside making... a 5 to 5 SW squadron game, using past assets and no 64 bits precision game engine. Expect then SWS 2, 3, 4 both sold with no micro-transactions but at 35$ each
You are just spouting the same BS like "the backers voted for an increase in scope" which is as far from the truth as your statement above.
(Everyone else is either a data scientist and or cost analyst)
I stopped play-testing when they removed the last inch of their accountabilty in the TOS, you know when they moved from full refunds if the game is not released within 18 month to we can do whatever. And here we are in the year 2020 with no end in sight.
I am talking about NO end to the development cycle in sight and you imply that I talk about an imminent colapse of the project?
Jesus, am I the only one thinking that lately the defense attempts of the shills lack the same effort as CIGs development ? ROFL dude.
You obviously regret your backing amount though and feel the need to defend the game to fight that feeling.
Have more fun defending star shitizen
Massively Multi Player Online Role Playing Game / MMORPG
NOUN (mmorpgs)
An online role-playing video game in which a very large number of people participate simultaneously.
Secondly, an MMORPG usually gets developed, released and then expanded. Star Citizen is still sitting at (pre) Alpha after all this years and all the money which brings me back to my statement of "no end in sight". Before a patch it is all nice and dandy, and when the patch finally gets released mostly polish of existing stuff and ships remain in the final patch notes with no tangible progress being made.
If you don't want to argue the points posters are making here on the forum I'd suggest you stick to what you are good at ... posting screenshots.

quote from the blobs....quoting acting funny on back up computer....
What we get is that you like to set up Straw Man arguments and so proudly knock them down.
CR has (poorly) called the management shots for years. The more he's moved away from real control, the better it is for the game. There is that hope though, as Erin has at least helmed a released game this century.
Oh and so you laughably claim that in the last two decades, no innovative games have been designed and delivered? For less than $350 mil? Quite a claim. Maybe you better dial back your Straw Man hyperbole.
