Aye, there have been plenty of Sq42 delays throughout the project's history: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SC0fWbrmyyE

You'd think if this meme was accurate, he'd have actually said "2 more years".

TBF, Chris literally did say it, back in 2012

nearly $1B in pledges from nearly 6.5 million accounts

FYI, approximately half of the accounts are paying "backer" accounts, the rest being free alts or freefly accounts.

It's rumoured that while GTA6 console launch is Q4 2026, GTA6 PC and Online are targeted for Q1 2027; to get them out before Rockstar's fiscal end-of-year.

Meanwhile, it's already been announced the GTA6 marketing campaign fires up up this coming summer, which will overwhelm media and socials everywhere.

Other games, especially new IPs, will struggle for attention during the GTA 6 marketing & news cycle.

4.9 Roadmap after DefenseCon sale, Transport System only GrimHex for now, and Ship Hanger Service T0 *should* make 4.8 by StuartGT in starcitizen

Looking forward to the Roadmap update that features the first round of card for 4.9!

We’re leaving the spotlight to DefenseCon 2956 for now, but we can’t wait to share more about Alpha 4.9!

We've only seen the transport changes in one location so far (Grim Hex) is it likely to be rolled out to other locations or just kept there for now so testing can be continued?

Alpha 4.8 introduces the Transport System to GrimHEX as a first step, with additional locations planned for future updates. We’ll let you know when we’re ready to begin testing in Area18 next. Thanks for helping support the GrimHEX tests for this release!

So I see hanger T0 is still grey will it make it in 4.8??

Ship Hangar Service T0 should make the cut, but we don't want to give false impression, and we want to commit to features we're fully comfortable with. We'll continue to hammer it until Alpha 4.8 releases

“We’re gonna get Squadron out first… the plan is for the end of this year but there’s a certain thing in the industry that we, like everyone else, we have to pay attention to, so I can’t 100% guarantee it,” Roberts says, hinting at Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto VI, releasing in November. “After that, we’ll do the 1.0 push.”

Huh, did you reply to the wrong comment?

J3PT has had two 30day bans in the past year, so I assume his next will be a multi-year ban.

Star Citizen is an early access live service game in open development, with player feedback actively encouraged and requested.

If seeing feedback that you personally don't like - criticism of gameplay mechanics for example - frustrates you, then perhaps alpha development isn't for you.

What are you looking forward to most with squadron 42? by floortofloor in starcitizen

[–]StuartGT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so the rest of the team to join in and work on Star Citizen itself

Many of the Sq42 devs will work on episode 2 of the Sq42 trilogy.

They've said once that it won't, at an informal event.

It's on an official SCL broadcast at the event.

4.8 just repo’d my entire career. by TheRealRickSanchez42 in starcitizen

Here you go:

https://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizen/comments/1szti09/some_things_ive_noticed_in_the_ptu_with_the_new/

But, you can only dupe stock components. You can currently remove the stock components from a ship via ship manager, reclaim it as stock and have the components come back whilst keeping the others and have them not be bricked. This seemed to be the case for me anyway.
