    Of course he did,  now all that matters is one can play for funsies, OK I guess, but not how I roll. 

    Without progression, there is no game.

    still it's good to be on top

    For me its not about Star Citizen being "on top".

    E:D has its good aspects, NMS has its special features, EVE its depth, Warframe its adrenaline, Rebel Galaxy its special wit and country music ...

    I enjoy all of these games. And look forward to ALL of them improving even more.


    Have fun

    All of those other titles let you accumulate and save your progression,  hence the are officially "games" in my book.

    SC .... not there yet, but perhaps one day.

    I really need to update my signature.

    Progression - Pillar #1, without it there is no game.  

    :D

    lol sure, its nice to compare games who are out and in a playing manner to a alpha who have no launch date

    I would never deny your total investment in this game development, but....   You'll have the same excuses next year.

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

    Yeah everyone knows the more viewers and player engagement your game gets on Twitch it's because of all the dreams people get while watching others play  :D

    Now that's an awesome excuse.

    I have to play SC alpha to know that when your fearless leader led backers and the media to believe, in the fall of 2016 that their other game, Squadron 42, was just some polish away from imminent release he was full of shit?

    Piss poor attempt at deflection.

    It is hard to believe that someone with a bad turnover rate in ideas was able to kickstart this much money and continue with a carrot on  a stick. They are making progress and the game is beautiful. But damn.......

    Anyone wanna band together to open a kickstarter with me, dont need to release anything in 10 years or so, as this game shows us : )

    people need to have fun with the game somehow, since there is still no game

    Back to progressing by playing a game....level 95 on POE awaits...tens of thousands of NPCs are about to die...

    But hey, you enjoy "watching" OK?

    People like to slow down and look at car wrecks, too. Besides, who doesn't like a good meme?

    Yeah man WoW must be such a trainwreck since it has 300k viewers on Twitch lol

    I guess it hurts seeing Star Citizen alpha with all it's bugs, glitches,  demanding pc specs and no persistence being the most played and watched space-sim lol

    28 chapters equivalent to 60+ missions - (More than likely short and cut for time)
    A-list cast to match any event movie - (Only good thing)
    340 speaking roles with state of the art facial scanning and mocap - (Still going to be horribly buggy)
    Over 20 hours of performance capture - (Excuse me?)
    Story arc with 1255 pages of dialogue - (Who gives a shit? If I use 30ft of toilet paper does that make it a bigger shit or a better shit?)
    40 distinct ships from fighters to dreadnoughts - (Number will be lower or less impressive)
    Hand-crafted environments enhanced with procedural tech - (Nothing is "enhanced" with procedural tech)
    Systemic space and FPS gameplay - from stealth to brute force - (and where is that yet? The FPS is really bad on alpha.)
    Dogfighting in both space and planetary atmosphere - (Still early stages)
    Subsumption AI - fully systemic, 24-hr schedules, 1000+ subroutines, simultaneous secondary objective" - (The tech won't even work as great as it sounds)

    Glad you are looking forward to all that.  It's a single player game and there ain't shit to show for it. Just talk, that's all anyone who sticks with Star Citizen does, talk.  A lot of fluff from the empire god send Mr. Roberts and Assoc.
