they already said somewhere around the time of the original kickstarter that SQ42 and the multiplayer Part will have to be bought seperatly
So it seems I will have access to both SQ42 and Star Citizen for only 20 USD then!
Oh, the tragedy!


Problem is SQ42 only takes place in one star system
A solar system is so vast and filled with celestial objects that you can make 100 SQ42 games in one system and still feel fresh.

E: D shows that you can make game set in a whole galaxy really boring.
And they want to have more galaxies anyway.

Going by the subbreddit fans don't seem to mind it. But then again, these people can already spend several thousand on a game *insert shrug smiley*

They don't seem to mind anything Chris Roberts does. The guy could dig up their dead grandma and have a drug-fueled tryst with her and they'd defend it.

Star Citizen: Trouble in Paradise?

Things may not be going well in the crowd-funded, $106-million game "Star Citizen" by noted developer Chris Roberts. The developer recently announced standalone FPS module, "Star Marine," would be folded into the PU module (the persistent universe part of the game). A somewhat unexpected move, some gamers have expressed concern about developer Roberts Space Industries future plans and lack of transparency. We will update you as soon as we learn more.

wtf is this shit? As a Star Citizen premium investor (I have purchased over $89,050 worth of digital space ships from Mr. Roberts and one time paid to fly to his house and wash the leaves out of his gutters and sometimes I occasionally sleep in his bushes and wait to gaze upon his cherubic face for only a blessed second), I can objectively state the author of this travesty should BURN IN FUCKING HELL

Hey "Lowtax" hope you don't mind us redditors starting a little sub dedicated to dismantling your empire of lies. You're about to be owned like you've never been owned before. And I have absolutely no stake in this game; I just believe in ethics in video game reporting, which you obviously have never heard of, and I intend to teach you this lesson by posting your home address and the names and ages of your children and the best time to kidnap, rape, and murder them. You brought this upon yourself with your irresponsible reporting, Richard. Do no say I didn't warn you.

Nice troll, Derek. I knew it was you, Derek. Derek has over 547,293 sock puppet accounts he creates to discredit this revolutionary masterpiece because his own dumb game Line of the Fence is so bad. Hey Derek, don't you know it's ILLEGAL to criticize a video game unless you have created a better one yourself? I live in Norway and plan on suing you for violating our anti-harassment and online lie laws. Your game is dumb and terrible and I don't know how you are able to create so many accounts across so many websites claiming to be different people criticizing this perfect game from a perfect man whose sperm is magical and can bring life to dead planets, but your reign of terror will be over once I can pay my phone bill and use uber to take me to a lawyer's office.

The plan was to have the FPS module launched way before the Persistence Universe alpha would come online.
But because the FPS module was delayed numerous times, the PU launch date caught and integrated the FPS module. And still the FPS module is not complete due to numerous animations needed, the zero G simulation involved and Roberts's obsessions.

So there are retards on both sides of the camp: slags that delve in half truths and ignorance/sensationalism and rabid imbeciles that excel in apologism.

edit:


great video detailing the technical challenges encountered

derek smart needs to shut the fuck up.

the only time you can talk a fraction of the amount of shit he has spewed is if that same mouth has also shat out multiple masterpieces in a row. while star citizen is going to be one of the greatest lulzfests of all time derek's bitching just detracts from the whole thing.

How many modules are in development? Actually, at this point I'm kinda lost on what this thing is trying to me.

Going by the subbreddit fans don't seem to mind it. But then again, these people can already spend several thousand on a game *insert shrug smiley*

It's Reddit, what did you expect. The whole point of subreddits is to find people with similar ideas to you and jerk off together.

Then again. SC fans seem to be a special kind of retards. They act more like a brainwashedcult than anything else.

I played the latest patch with the spacestations and long distance flight. Didnt hold my interest beyond the novelty factor. I mean its nice that they've made progress fitting the bits together without crashing the servers but its so unpolished and far from completion you can imagine a small studio achieving the same by keeping it simple.

How many modules are in development?

Planetside/MMO, FPS, Single Player, Dogfighting. But yea they have been mixing them together so only single player is really separate at this point.

New Derek Smart blog:

http://www.dereksmart.org/2016/02/star-citizen-the-shafting/

One of the best parts of this whole circus, is that for every article there are at least 5 comments like "I am an outside observer and don't even play computer games, but Chris Roberts is a God and you will burn in hell for questioning him". Do those religious nutjobs even read that shit before they post it. Don't they see how ridiculous they look and sound?

Just look at this guy:

  • Rajafa Mitswuey
    Everything Derek has written was proven false. I don’t think the playerbase at SC is mental (before you say I’m a crazy fan of the game, I’m not, I’m just a bystander). I see a LOT of false allegations and just trolling going on towards the game with no evidence to back it up. How come the fans of the game aren’t allowed to call people out on their bullcrap?

    Sometimes I’ll see comments like this: “This game is a scam. Deal with it.” with NO evidence to back it up. And then when someone asks for proof the OP will just say something along the lines of “I knew you wouldn’t see it, you’re just a blind fanboy.” and they just avoid giving proof because, well, they have none.

    The SC wouldn’t look like a mental community if the people bashing the game wouldn’t say mental things about it without any evidence whatsoever.

and then on a completely different site:

  • Rajafa Mitswuey
    It’s the same with goons like Cash Roberts up there. He spews non-sensical bullcrap everywhere ;). And the only reason I get to these articles is because of Reddit. I never go out of my way to search for them.

If he is a troll. He is a dedicated one.

what's this bullshit about "altering the deal"? it was known for a long ass time that closer to release of SQ42 they'd be selling the 2 separate games as, well, 2 separate games because they are in fact 2 separate games. and that one of the perks of preordering sooner rather than later is getting both for (less than) the price of one. if it/they come(s) out, of course. or are people going to throw tantrums about "altering the deal" whenever a company includes bonuses for preordering?

Don't bother, this provides a number of our fellow codexers with an easy fix for their edginess, let them have it, I say.
