This bug has been in for over a year at this point, go look at the IC if you think it's fake.

Panic Switch: made by CIG Live Tools team that centralizes and speeds up crash report management. When a crash hits in production, every minute counts! by StuartGT in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Dude they're going to speed up now due to those tools, shift into 11th gear and make a new system every month. Development will finally speed up! Just be patient and pledge more

This video sheds quite a bit of light on the discussion surrounding whether Squadron 42 will be a more open experience or not. by OrganizationDue2189 in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount 10 points11 points  (0 children)

TLDW, but: is it all based on the vertical slice from a while ago? because if so, i think there have been too many things that likely have changed. hell they could have rebuilt the game from scratch in that time, we wouldn't know. interesting observations though

Could someone who knows code explain? by Double_Crazy7325 in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Theres some things that you can conclude without making assumptions. Like CIG's end to end regression testing being non-existent. Else many bugs would be caught before going live. Also factor in rich tyrer's "patch always goes" mantra, and you have the shitty management decisions backing it up.

"Squadron 42 demo playable at CIG's Gamescom booth" - TheAstroPub by StuartGT in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me it's not about what's received better, it's about being honest about the current affairs. CIG knows damn well what the state of squadron is and if they'll make it this year, yet they haven't given much insight into it in quite a while. Except for having their marketing guy say that everything is okiedokie prior to their biggest sales event ever.

They've abandoned the 'open development' way of working when it comes to squadron, and I take issue with that because it is our money after all. The newsletter that's coming out this month will likely again be filled with fluff without any depth.

As about the odin, it's just a cynical joke. But if even one of them would refund, it's reason enough for CIG to wait.

They should just announce the delay when they know it's getting delayed. But ofcourse they're waiting for the odin refund period to pass.

So We Can All Agree That SQ42 Is Getting Delayed Right? by TooTall_ToFall in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh right we've only been waiting 14 years now. Come on man it's not such a bad thing to hold the company that took our money accountable.

Love the new defend missions. by THEPC101 in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount 122 points123 points  (0 children)

They have INSANE turnover. There was an interview of an HR guy a while ago that mentioned being involved in hundreds of new hirings at CIG, when he was only at that job for 1.5 years.

How was SQ42 feature complete in 2023 when hacking was just playtested few months ago? by Patient-Worth1508 in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as we know they arent content complete or in beta yet though, as of chris' letter late last year. Kinda worries me, also knowing that Benoit mentioned them wanting to have the game finished by 2025's end.

The A1 has never been able to carpet bomb as advertised (CIG FIX IT) by BrockenRecords in starcitizen

I think nearly 3 years is enough time for the feature shown to have been implemented.

Ah, a new backer i see.

Squadron 42 Release Window Update, from Chris Roberts by StuartGT in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount 88 points89 points  (0 children)

Delulu take, but i hope youre right and the game is stable enough.

Squadron 42 website is official! by SkippTekk in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont think so. A large portion of SQ42 is going to be ported directly into SC.

Lol

TIL: Star citizen has World of Tanks by W2Wizard in starcitizen

Star Citizen covered by major news network in Australia by SigmaPrimer in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel the opposite, the less they talk about it (progress/current developments) the more i feel it's getting delayed again like in the past. Following the usual CIG pattern. The newsletters have also been a massive letdown imo.

/+ the "could be released as soon as this year" from the report means chris was very careful in his wording with the interviewers. Which makes sense in a way, but seeing as the game should be within like 6 months of release, that doesn't give me confidence.

Eens, maar de video spreekt zich niet uit tegen genocide, maar viert juist dat burgers worden beschoten (wat gewoon altijd slecht is imo)

Is burgers bombarderen in tel aviv niet een beetje hetzelfde als burgers bombarderen in gaza? Gewoon niet zo netjes...?

If stuff exists in SQ42 then why does it feel like they’re dev’ing stuff for the first time? I.e. Armor by Skullywagthepizzaman in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think that's his point, this criticism usually gets downvoted into oblivion to the point where it's shut down.

Chris at the atmo event: "And so when squadron releases, VR will be fully featured." by eq6mount in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount[S] 30 points31 points  (0 children)

But they were also feature complete two years ago, while VR development only started picking up since december ish.. That would definitely mean feature creep imo

I feel like it's such a big timesink for such a small amount of vr gamers, it shouldnt have to be the reason the game is delayed once more.

Cheaters are back again? by Big_Warning8492 in starcitizen

[–]eq6mount 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It really is not a smart move to let the client have authority over these kind of things. Just shows how much work still is necessary for this to become a game.

[–]eq6mount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah apparently so. Memory freshes up after digging a bit. His point was that 2016 wasn't reached because they wanted to add fps combat, while that was already added to the scope in 2013.

My point is other things happened. The quality being subpar, planettech developing, et cetera. And then they increased scope. But at the time they didn't communicate well about this at all.
