I didn't realize there were so many limitations with the Cryengine, I just need to learn about some of the backend issues I guess they're having.

Amazons Lumberyard Engine is built on top of Cryengine and was the foundation for New World (they formed it and modified it however)

If anyone ever plays, add me: ezaM.

All I do is sit in Arena Commander all day long, but own pretty much every ship in game if you want to fly whatever.
Any here that are looking for an active SC community hit me up. We daily Ops and its not uncommon to see 20+ people launching into servers. Most game play loops are supported. So if you like spaceship.jpgs, shooting lazers that hit half the time and gambling with your hard earned compensation we can show you a good time.

Can you design your own spaceship in this ? Even if there’s not really gameplay, I can see a potential massive whale opportunity if they let you modify your 2k$ spaceship with 100-500$ personalized upgrades. Kind of how you can milk extra cash from billionaires for their yachts. Hell make them nfts and charge double.

Everything you can do is cosmetic but not structural or functionally cosmetic.

jesus fucking christ, making half a bill for only making promises, showing ever-changing roadmaps, pushing back deadlines and never implementing features for a decade

Ha, Star Wars the Old Republic had a dev cost of 200 mill and they changed shit, scrapped tons of shit and more. They generally were considered to have wasted several millions of dollar during development and still put out a half way good product. I couldnt imagine how nice of a game we could have if a legitimate company had half a billion dollar budget to make an MMO.

Imagine being able to crowdfund half a billion in your triangle shaped enterprise gaming company with nothing near a finished product in sight. I really should have ditched my morals decades ago if I knew this many retards existed.

I still think the crowdfund numbers have been totally fake for many years.

I think it is amazing how well the mafia is using this company to launder drug money.

Just buy a bunch of imaginary ships, perks, etc and then use that money for the company. The company will of course need cars and cloths. You have to rent a facility with cost going towards furniture and utilities. I imagine that there are plenty of people that need to be paid for their work. The numbers given are probably lower than the truth of billions having been funneled through the system over 10 years. Its brilliant.

I hope they've allocated some of this capital to an index fund to maintain payroll indefinitely?
