I haven't been on this site for a long time. Yet all the same people defending this game ?. I used to be indifferent and had no idea if this game would launch or not. At this point I doubt it. It's still all the same rhetoric from before. I can't believe there isn't an actual launch date for this game yet.
I would gladly "put my neck on the line" for a top-level executive salary. Every relative I have and their pets, too -- put 'em on the payroll. There's no risk for him or his family, only profit. He's clearly in the 'cash absolves shame' camp. No matter which game you want to discuss.
So why don't you do it if it's so easy? Just pitch a kickstarter idea and see how it goes.
It's so easy to unicorn your way into dumb assumptions without putting the minimum thought into basic things like how much money one has to invest into buying the full license of a game engine, paying concept artists to make the art, modellers and programmers to create the pitch video or getting a company starting. After all this you have to reach an audience that likes what you're pitching WHILE delivering along the years to maintain engagement and player confidence. Good luck with that.
None of which changes the point that CR and family are making good pay throughout all of this.
Would you expect them to work for free? They started the company from scratch and made it successful not the way around. In case you're wondering Roberts were already swimming in money back from the Wing Commander days.
Yeah just like CR, Mendel worked in a top gaming studio and produced multiple blockbuster gaming hits before he asked for 10$ millions back in 91-92 lol

So, how about that SQ42/SC roadmap? What do you all think, are ‘Realistic Throwing Mechanics’ essential gameplay elements, since they get mentioned as a separate goal on the map? How about the goal furthest in the future for SQ42 being a whopping 46 weeks in the future? Could that mean Beta from that point on? How about the ‘fluid’ comment stating that the further the goal is in the future the more fluid its target dates become? How about no Alpha/Beta/Release dates at all? To me its a quite elaborate ‘Carte Blanche’ of a roadmap full of small details but no actual milestones.
Roadmap UX is well designed and detailed enough, it's a great showcase of just how much goes into making massive AAA games, many features much to coordinate!
- Realistic Throwing Mechanics are a fundamental part of having a living breathing believable universe where things are physicalised and can be interacted with.
- Like every estimated date I'll take it for what it is. Best guesses and nothing more than that. I already trusted them enough to give them my money in advance exactly because I want the game they are making exactly how they want it and when they want it. If a feature isn't ready it isn't ready and I don't want them to cut it just for the sake of a random date estimated years before.
After this years Cyberpunk drama I don't know how can anyone still think that release dates should take priority over the quality of the game, yet here we are.
Ready when it's Ready boys, ready when it's ready.

Yep. A 4.6 million dollar house just up from the beach. It's a nice house.
So? He already had a 20+ million dollar mansion back in the 90's lol
You don't know anything about Chris Roberts finances. It's just your spin. Spin! Spin!
He had money in the '90's, but if you follow his career in Hollywood, he bankrolled a lot of losers. His last Hollywood production was in 2009, and it is still unreleased, and stil mired in lawsuits. Then there's the great 'limousine service' bit. He sure wasn't living in a big mansion prior to hitting the lottery in crowdfunding. OF course he has excuses for this, but then Roberts always has excuses.
But I've always said, his SC marketing is stellar.

If only he was a paid employee of CIG, but the reality is much sadder. In reading through his posts it becomes clear just how much he's personally invested in this game. Not monetarily, but emotionally invested.
He really believes that by following this game he's getting some great insight into game development. Even more, he see's himself as part of the development. He's an investor and a game tester, he's helping to make the best damn space game ever.
I hope he eventually gets the game he wants.

Nice unicorn but no cigar.
Anyone paying attention knows that I'm more than eager to discuss anything meaningfull about Star Citizen or game development in general.
Sure, Im not gonna excuse myself for exposing unicorns lol.
Being the most knowlegdable person in the room about the subject at hand is not a burden but a privilege.
Just like years ago those who pushed drama and preached about the game's imminent financial demise got their unicorns in check so did those who wished and cheered it's collapsed due to lawsuits or loans some time ago.
This year is no different and as I'll adress unicorns with basic facts and knowledge new trolls and haters will learn, like their predecessours did, that ignorance not only is futile but pointless because, like I've been saying all along, Star Citizen will just keep getting better and better growing in player base and breaking funding records.

Try Clicking the article and reading it. Roadmap is transversal
Does this roadmap have a release date for the new revised roadmap? They could probably schedule this as a quarterly reoccurring Outlook task, but Outlook only goes 10 years into the future so couldn't possibly cover the multiple decades necessary to hit Beta.
2038
"Another date storage problem also faces us in the year 2038. The issue again stems from Unix's epoch time: the data is stored as a 32-bit integer, which will run out of capacity at 3.14 am on 19 January 2038"
Will be interesting to see which comes first, SCs release or the end of computing as we know it.

Right... basic grade school grammar would advise you that "Star Citizen Releases New Roadmap for Squadron 42" means that this is about the roadmap for S42.
Of course "Star Citizen" did not release anything. CIG did. But our site overlords are too busy playing console games to understand that Star Citizen is a product and not a company.
Your biggest problem is that you paint every single person who criticizes Your favorite game as a troll, hater or some other made up word. It demonstrates a horrible lack of self-confidence and its the reason that 99% of the readers do not take anything you say seriously. I've been on these forums before you. I was following SQ42 before you. And in all likelihood I will be doing both long after you fade away. But if you are going to post please keep THIS thread to SQ42.
Thanks

Sorry but you'll have to do better than that. I answered your "questions" and engaged in a "game discussion" when you pretended to care about the topic at hand remember, instead of keeping up you pulled some unicorns about fluff and ignore the topic at hand showing your true colours once again.
You don't seem all interested in game development, crowdfunding or Star Citizen but instead just trying to cope with the lack of something meaningful to play.
Facts and Data is not "opinion dressed up as something important" just because it exposes some unicorns.
Accept that game development news and crowdfunding art not your thing and move on if you can't handle it. It will be irrelevant either-way.
Right... basic grade school grammar would advise you that "Star Citizen Releases New Roadmap for Squadron 42" means that this is about the roadmap for S42.
No it really isn't, If you had READ the full article along with the included you know that it starts with the phrase:
The Squadron 42 beta has been delayed by three months, Cloud Imperium Games has announced.
The beta for Star Citizen's story-based single-player campaign is now set for the third quarter of 2020 - so at some point during July, August or September next year. It had been due out during the second quarter of 2020.
Now the roadmap shows items for 2022. They've been lying outright about the release of Squadron 42 dating back to 2015. Every single year they have promised some playable version (be it released, beta or testing). They've been accepting money based on these lies.

What an absolute shitshow.
I agree and it’s why I said the only useful thing about the Roadmap is if you print it out and use it for toilet paper.

Your game.dev endeavour was 10 years later of the 90's.
So you night want to fact check your own thoughts before chiming in.
Anyone paying attention knows that I'm more than eager to discuss anything meaningfull about Star Citizen or game development in general.
Sure, Im not gonna excuse myself for exposing unicorns lol.
Being the most knowlegdable person in the room about the subject at hand is not a burden but a privilege.
Just like years ago those who pushed drama and preached about the game's imminent financial demise got their unicorns in check so did those who wished and cheered it's collapsed due to lawsuits or loans some time ago.
This year is no different and as I'll adress unicorns with basic facts and knowledge new trolls and haters will learn, like their predecessours did, that ignorance not only is futile but pointless because, like I've been saying all along, Star Citizen will just keep getting better and better growing in player base and breaking funding records.
Rinse & Repeat
Rinse & repeat indeed.

'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....'

Contrary to you, I adressessed your questions with logic and substance, which, ofc, you choose to ignore and obfuscated by focusing and attacking a "avatar image aka "fluff" lol
Proving me right, again.
If you're bothered with the Rinse & Repeat try bringing some knowledge and insight instead.
Either way, Star Citizen will keep getting better & better and making more money in the process. R&R

Exposing unicorns is only considered derrailing when you're a unicorn spawner lol Quoted for truth, if you had a little moment of being less full of yourself you might notice you are talking about yourself here. You're constantly painting this amazing picture by tying together everything seemingly related you can get your hands on and are willfully ignoring other opinions and insights by shouting down everything else. you really aren't contributing anything here contrary to what you might think, 'proving me right, again.'
I don't know why I bother, maybe its because I know you are doing this on purpose and not because you're a simple troll/fanboy/white knight. You are your avatar on these forums, don't downplay that to "fluff." unless that's what you consider yourself. I know I do.

Of course "Star Citizen" did not release anything. CIG did. But our site overlords are too busy playing console games to understand that Star Citizen is a product and not a company.
Your biggest problem is that you paint every single person who criticizes Your favorite game as a troll, hater or some other made up word. It demonstrates a horrible lack of self-confidence and its the reason that 99% of the readers do not take anything you say seriously. I've been on these forums before you. I was following SQ42 before you. And in all likelihood I will be doing both long after you fade away. But if you are going to post please keep THIS thread to SQ42.
Thanks

Article from August 19, 2019: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-08-31-star-citizens-squadron-42-beta-delayed-three-months-to-q3-2020#:~:text=The Squadron 42 beta has,the second quarter of 2020.
The Squadron 42 beta has been delayed by three months, Cloud Imperium Games has announced.
The beta for Star Citizen's story-based single-player campaign is now set for the third quarter of 2020 - so at some point during July, August or September next year. It had been due out during the second quarter of 2020.
Now the roadmap shows items for 2022. They've been lying outright about the release of Squadron 42 dating back to 2015. Every single year they have promised some playable version (be it released, beta or testing). They've been accepting money based on these lies.
What an absolute shitshow.
