    Schrodinger's  Star Citizen:  As long as you don't release it, it can still be that 'perfect game' waiting in the box.

    If you are holding out for the perfect game, the only game you play will be the waiting one.

    Raising money by selling every in game asset they have ever made, and some they are probably yet to make is not a long term business model.. Its just a cash grab of epic proportions.

    If you guys ever manage to get your hands on a full release, it will never meet your expectations. You will be playing wallet wars in a universe devoid of life, because no new players want to join a game that people have been throwing their credit card at for a decade...

    God speed though. For what its worth, I hope you at least get your moneys worth... All $300,000,000 worth... and counting.. I am sure they will have their hands out for another round soon.

    What kind of next gen are we talking here? when PS4/Xbone was considered next-gen, since this game has been development since 2011, or literal next-gen when your grand children will be waiting for this next-gen game?

    Because they were literally the next generation of consoles after the old one and not because they were bringing more to the table in terms of gameplay.

    PS4/Xbone were considered pretty low-standard hardware even before they released and had to get buffed versions to not look completely behind.

    Besides the higher graphical fidelity and frame-rate there's nothing "next-gen" at a foundational level about the current games of this console generation .

    3.8.2 to be released anytime and SQ42 beta by end of the year. Indeed the current Alpha do have more features than any single triple-A released by Publishers which are delviering only copy/paste of their own games or even fail to deliver (Fallout 76, Anthem, Warcraft reforged)

    We had the promise to get a simpelr efresh of Wing Commander and we got two triple-A... for the same price as long you were early backer. A true shame !)

    Well you problably hide into a cave the past years. Ten thousands NEW bacekrs join at every patch simply because they can download and test/play several weeks per year for free.

    Supporting ambitous project driven by community of space lovers is 45$. A drop compared to the garbage served by publishers since the past years... And if you don't want to join any Alpha, just wait till beta or release, no problem.

    Sorry bud but it is already meeting ours expectations and beyond. More features in Alpha than any released triple-A... and this not counting for all SQ42 assets to be injected in SC at release and quartely patch adding contents and gameplay to SC.

    They don't sell every assets... you can grab ships with in game Credits and their monetization model after release is not different of others F2P MMO around.
    By the way, big ship won't make you the king of the hill... An Idris Capital ship flight by a couple guys won't be competitive against several basic starter package or few guys grinding a better fighter. We are talking about 10 hours grinding for a better fighter... an 10 hours in an MMO is totally achievable by anyone.

    "Indeed the current Alpha do have more features than any single triple-A released by Publishers"

    From 2015 until to day ? For a game being developed since 2012, it would be immature to want to compare with games released only in 2019. Compare with games from the decade:

    Bayonetta 2

    The Witcher 3

    Dishonored 2

    Doom

    Overwatch

    Destiny 2

    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

    Uncharted: The Lost Legacy

    Black Desert Online

    Assassin’s Creed Odyssey

    God of War

    Monster Hunter: World

    Red Dead Redemption 2

    Elder Scrolls Online


    Yeah...sure.

    Nope, it's not for everyone.  It's for those with more money than brains.  The fallout when this game doesn't live up to the hyper-inflated expectations is going to be legendary.

    Scam Citizen. When this fails and fails hard- I for one cant wait to gloat on these forums! I just cant understand how people think that their business model and development approach of the game is feasible - they have been developing mindless assets for the store for half a decade now and little to nothing to show for except broken promises.

    Its easy being a next gen game compared to consoles when you start during development aginst ps3 and xbox 360 since when its finally getting released it will compete with ps6 and xbox xonex2x3x

    Looking forward for the next Pillar Talk .. in 2030.

    Reporter: What's behind Blizzard success, and how do you make your gamers happy?
    Blizzard Boss: Making gamers happy is not my concern, making money.. yes!

    If 50 bucks is "more money than brains" for you .... your concept of wealth must be ...
    underwhelming.

    You can spend more. But you do not have to.


    Have fun
