I just don't get why he is always in damage control the second something is said about SC that isn't flattering. The only thing I can think of is he either works for CIG or has spent an embarrassing amount of money on the game. Inc, "I only spent the bare minimal, but am in the alpha and other closed testing" lol.
You can tell CitizenCon is near. Goon despair is peaking lol
Every year they mention some technical challenge that will be impossible for CIG to solve only to be solved lol
Back in 2014 CIG wouldn't be able to make large enough maps for a space game....
In 2015 they couldn't possibly make seamless integration of dogfighting, fps, eva, physics grids or multicrew...
In 2016 Star Marine was impossible because the networking couldn't handle it, they even said that the Gamescom live gameplay planetary demo was a pre-rendered cutscene (lmao)...
2017 seamless planetary landings also impossible, it was a external loaded map they said... (lmao)
These haters like to pretend they have technical skill and knowledge about complex stuff but cant even change wording or modus operandi lol
90 days top in full swing boys!
No matter what the argument, there's always this hole card. It's almost like cheating.

Wrong.
The fans are here because the haters are here, and vice-versa.
Wrong.
Wrong.... and right.
All crowdfunded MMO's rely on continuous funding to complete the project. Scare away enough backers, and the project stalls and dies...
It's just a variation on the "run on the bank" scenario.
And Bethesda LMAO they have maybe the second most popular MMO going right now in a genre thats in their wheel house. A game I hated on pretty hard during testing and didnt even buy until over a year after its release. But they did what they needed and actually made the game better and more populated after the first month after release, something not many (none these days) companies can do. Not to mention the new Fallout game. If anything i think they are completely trolling Chris Roberts because there wasnt a single rumor or hint of anything like this from ANYONE anywhere and suddenly two months ago (other than another obvious troll a couple years ago on 4Chan)they come out with all sorts of videos and announcements? And they also claim its been 'secretly' in development for years. Sort of like how Roberts was secretly using Lumberyard engine for over a year.
But like prokekt red bethesda isnt going to release an 'official' trailer (troll or not) unless something releasable is close at hand, as in less than 2 years away and generally less than a year.
As far as all the 'tech' being impossible talk. HUUUUUUUUGE difference between what they have now and what they will need if they ever do release this mess. People already cant play it because systems bog down, bottleneck or outright CTD. Go watch one of the half dozen paid streamers who are showcasing this techdemo on Twitch. None of them actually 'play' the game, because they cant. Best youre going to see is them with a few of their subs or followers doing random 'hang out' scenes or playing hide and seek. Once in awhile they might do a dog fight instance or something but most have done those till their eyes bleed. But even when they do those remedial things they all crash at least 3 times a stream from something. One day I had one on in the back ground and the guy crashed about 10 times in just under 3 hours. Mostly because he was trying something different and had to tax the environment a little bit. And these are guys with rigs better than 99% of the people playing PC games right now. And a few of them actually bought buy CiG (more than likely with backer money) built specifically to play SC tech demo in the first place.
These two games are a catch-22 for Roberts on one hand they can tide people over for the next little bit while he continues to milk and delay whatever he has going so depending on timing and updates that could buy him another 3 years. Other side of that is if theyre obviously better graphically and in playability and everything else its going to dampen the SC being the best at everything card.
Regardless there will still be the hardcores who are blinded who wont care or will pretend to not care and continue to put SC and Roberts up on some pedestal no matter how long it takes or how much its starts to suffer by comparison or how much money they are able to spend on it.
Beyond good and evil 2, most likely they ditched their original idea and started from scratch.
You guys love to speak about how long it took to make diablo 3 and ignore that the studio that started development was shut down and another team took over. Most likely what happened was that blizzard didn't like the original plans and decided that another team would do the job.
We have had the same thing happening with Star citizen, they removed the team that worked on star marine, pretty sure chris roberts was disappointed with the original idea for squadron 42 gameplay and started over.
I'm not here for gain, I'm here for entertainment, maybe you should ask why some here are so adamant on solely naysaying and discredit SC, maybe you would stop validating one side while aiming at the other...
The only reason there are fans here "defending SC", is because there are others here "attacking SC", one does not exist without the other, get it? It's the core fuel of this forum.
