    Well that ship has sailed long before the KS was up. Chris wanted the PvP feature and he felt he found a balanced feature he thought he could implement. The bare bones of that are in 2.0 right now. There is a very early very limited party system. This will expand in 2.1 and 2.2 to let you...

    So when it comes to planetary landing we might get what we saw a year ago initially because that's the first iteration. However when Chris was asked about this directly not long ago he smiled and said he got something out of R&D and into production that they think they can get working live by...

    I'm not much for posting trailer videos but this one I'll give a pass with a grain of salt. This is what it's like with other people when everything works right. Which to be fair right now is not often as glitches are plenty. A partial blocker list they posted today they want to fix before...

    CR has repeatedly said he has no intention of ever releasing SC in a state where it's a bad game. There are countless MMOs that launched and were complete and utter shit launches. I'm trying. I'm really trying but I can't think of a single MMO that launched that went well in recent memory...

    There is no more such things as modules. They admit it caused way too many problems trying to put different modules together and this is a development team that would do code merges to ensure things would work and the final major code merge killed Star Marine. A module they kept wanting to...

    It's possible. I think CR genuinely wants a 2016 release but there are a lot of pies in the oven. It's not like a typical AAA title with maybe 1 major feature to try and set it apart from the others. There are a lot and as a new studio they are building a lot of tools from scratch. They...

    Takes a minimum of 5 years to shit out a half decent AAA title if you aren't CDPR. If you think they can do it justice you are dreaming. An ADHD variant of it ala Battlefront? That I can see happening if space games become popular again but they aren't. Do you know how many millions of...

    It's the exact same assets so I don't see why it wouldn't work. If my ISP wasn't shit I would be all over the PTU but I can't test it atm.

    DX12/Vulcan optimization isn't even in yet. That will come early/mid next year via German office. They are doing it the right way so people should see an immediate improvement there. On top of that the waste of money and iteration people bitch about here has helped them plenty. Nobody here...

    The best answer I can give on rollout is this: SC is what you see right now. They will continue to build on top of what you see right now in SC Alpha 2.0 People confuse SC Alpha and Arena Commander. AC is a game within a game just like Star Marine is a game in a game. That game is SC...

    TLDR is that they have a specific build for SQ42. That build is what we will be playing when it goes "gold". However that build will have tie ins to the PU build at several stages but that's trivial. It's things like unlocking multiplayer co-op battles and historical battles you can play...

    It's been in dev for 3 years. IMO 2 years from reaching it's goals. That's the average length of time for your typical AAA title. Could you give it a minute?

    lol Ok that genuinely made me laugh out loud. What little I can glean it has a campaign, multiplayer built in and it's separate from EVE. Original plan was full EVE integration but just like I mentioned the limited FPS integration they opted out. And there is your problem with game...

    There really isn't a whole lot there right now. What's important is some underlying basic game features they promised do appear to work and those who have tried it enjoyed it. What's there now will no doubt get better through iteration. Complaining about the concept of iteration is a bit odd...

    It's not the same build. They no longer have like 15 builds but they still have about half that. I'm not including the PTU which is a temp build. But you would have a QA build which changes the most for obvious reasons, a SQ42 build, PU build, character build, engine build and probably a...

    Way too complicated and I'm not in the industry. However let me try. I swear I tried my hardest but my Google Fo failed me and couldn't find the image they held up during one of the 10 For The episodes which showed all of the internal builds and live build and how they interacted. It looked...

    Very strongly suggest people watch this 10 For the Producers so they understand not only what will happen next but how. I like INN because they post transcripts so you can just read it. But I'm serious. If you are willing to ever watch one 25-27min episode this is the one to watch...

    Look a the upside. Chris finally admitted during the Live Stream that his previous ways of rolling out content was a mistake and from 2.0 onward we will get whatever is complete in chunks for the 2.1, 2.2 etc. patches right up to release instead of forcing a hard feature set that must ship with...

    Chris said himself that they had no plans to do half of what they are doing now including running a 300+ employee company. He was hoping to suck on some of that corporate cock which I admit surprised me when I heard him admit it. Originally the game was supposed to have a very limited scope...

    I covered this ground a couple of times. They started full production 3 years ago not 4. 4 years ago was a proof of concept tech demo made by Chris, he did a lot of the programming, combined with Sean Tracy (at the time working for CryTek) and couple of other guys at CryTek working on it on...

    As far as the coffee maker goes it's probably true. Those things are not unique and apparently over on Reddit some people who work in a high end corporate environment mentioned that some of them do have those. Apparently the idea is to both boost morale and keep people in the office working...

    I want to correct something here on the "tedium". So their plan is to let you do basic transactions without having to leave your ship. Things like repair, fuel, sell your cargo or buy the resources available at the port. If I understand it correctly you will be able to do this via your...

    Yup. We now know they spent about 1.5 years working on the Shubin Mining Station which was the first space station. If that's all you knew it would be understandable that it would be considered a massive waste of time and money and totally mismanaging the project. Except that was built in...

    See this is the challenge. How do you compare? Where do you compare? Depending on your viewpoint either nothing is done because you don't have access to it or they are progressing on schedule with the reality is somewhere in between. We won't get access to SQ42 Chapter 1 until mid to late...
