This: >>16472928

The PS3 on the other hand was sold at a fantastic loss, so was the 360. When those came out they were arguably a bit ahead of most high-end PCs for a few months.

I don't think any of the current consoles are sold at a loss, which is an unusual situation for consoles and it shows in unspectacular hardware.

To bring it back to topic, Star Citizen is supposed to be a PC exclusive and what little of it there is to "play" runs incredibly badly. Unlike a "so bad it's good" movie, though, it's not worth the price of admission.

you guys are going to feel really fucking dumb when this game releases next year and those ships are several million USD EACH!

It's like buying bitcoin for $0.02 and then selling when it hits $10k/per. I've invested about $20,000 into various ships and when the game comes out I'll sell them and be a millionaire. Keep crying, poorfags, the truth is that it costs money to make money. And I'm sitting on several million bucks while doing zero work for it.

Sometimes I like to imagine I would make a game with a cosmetic system that would basically be a slap to companies like blizzard and hirez when it comes to the cosmetic delivery, first it would have a single player component, if it were some kind of hero/character thing at least each new one would need a mini arc, then when it comes to multiplayer and the dreaded loot system I would literally only make chests cost in-game non-premium (never premium) currency, but then I would make it so chests are just cheaper but random while skins cost X amount, I would even place the "this skin is always available" or something.

The problem is that the combat doesn't really allow for much in the way of player expression, all you can do is strafe and fire broadsides and once you get your second ship you're pretty much invulnerable so the combat loses all its appeal. I hope being able to play as a fighter improves the sequel, but the jump to EGS is a serious concern even if I'm going to pirate it.

Iirc didn't the biggest ships needed actual people to man them? Does it means that even if at some point the game is released and the ship made wouldn't people still be unable to use them due to not having enough crew?

I think every ship with moving turrets has to have each manned individually at the bare minimum. You'd think there would be a "make your own robot crew" thing to help with that but I guess they thought monetizing robotits would distract from the ship models.

Day-1 collector's editions. Don't even play or open the game, just buy the Legendary Ultra Collector's Edition (game not included) for 400$ and keep it shrink-wrapped for twenty years. You'll thank me later, trust me.

But seriously, I once had a Collector's Edition of a game. The game was shit, but I got it for free in a contest, so I figured I would just keep it stashed for a couple of years to see if the value would stay at least constant or even go up. In the end I was glad I could get rid of that shit for even 10$. I should have sold it when the game was still new, I could have gotten three or four times the amount, which would still have been a loss if I had actually paid money for it.

>Reclaimer

A 400$ dedicated space salvaging jpeg with no salvaging game mechanics.

>Javelin

A concept destroyer jpeg worth 3000$.

>Retaliator

A 275$ torpedo bomber with a retarded internal layout, specs that have long since been outclassed by later jpegs and zero attention from developers and/or Shitizens.

>Vanguard

A long-ranged heavy fighter jpeg worth 220$-280$ depending on the version purchased.

Comes in fighter, EW, dropship and fighter-bomber versions all of which are either shit from year-long nerfs and flight model experimentation or obsoleted at launch due to Chris' wisdom (the Hoplite dropship variant in particular).

>Eclipse

A 300$ stealth bomber jpeg. Nobody cares.

>Redeemer

The result of a CIG-organized jpeg design fan contest, this 250$ concept jpeg is unlikely to ever reach a playable state.

>Vulcan

A repair/refuel concept jpeg worth 200$ with no gameplay mechanics to speak of.

>Gladius

Generic light fighter jpeg worth 90$. Dev testbed and one of the oldest and most prominent in-game jpegs, it sees frequent use among the playerbase despite its somewhat lackluster armament.

>Sabre

Mainstay fighter jpeg worth 170$. The Sabre Raven variant of this jpeg was sold as a tie-in with an Intel SSD.

>Avenger

A 60$-85$ bounty hunting/police jpeg with a small storage space/prison. Part of the first wave of flyable jpegs, it has been reworked more times than a Thai prostitute in downtown Bangkok and comes in various variants all of which are shit.

>Hawk

$100 dedicated bounty hunting jpeg with a pod for storing a single captured bad goy, ostensibly for RP purposes.

>Hornet

Mainstay fighter jpeg worth 110$-180$ dollars.

Part of the first wave of flyable jpegs, it comes in normal, two-seat, stealth and AWACs versions of which the $180 dollar Super Hornet two-seater is the only one viable for PVP.

>Hurricane

Anti-capital fighter jpeg worth 195$.

>Gladiator

$165 dollar light torpedo bomber no one gives a shit about.

>Terrapin

A small, heavily armored exploration/picket jpeg worth 220$.

Super exclusive concept fighter jpeg restricted to AI usage due to its OP stats with the only way for players to obtain one being derelicts and/or space theft.

>Valkyrie

$375 dollar multi-role dropship that currently rapes ever other jpeg in its price range but doesn't have cargo racks in its hueg belly because Chris said it wouldn't be immersive for a military dropship to carry things beyond vehicles and men.

>Crucible

A dedicated $350 repair concept jpeg unlikely to leave the 2D realm.

>Carrack

Dedicated exploration concept jpeg and/or redditor masturbation aid worth $400, carries a snub ship for some reason.

Multipurpose refueling jpeg worth $300-$340. One of the first flyable large multi-crew ships, it is well known for its confusing interior layout, tiny cargo bay door, lack of refueling gameplay and bugged ladder mechanics.

>Freelancer series

Multipurpose 56% lmao jpegs worth $110-$175. Has seen six million design works none of which have improved its crappy cockpit and generally retarded aesthetic.

>Prospector

The game's only playable mining jpeg at $155. It actually has mining mechanics implemented!

>Razor

A $145 dollar dedicated formula one racing jpeg.

>890 Jump

An $890 luxury yacht concept jpeg aimed at the rich and beautiful, with an affluent design+various amenities free of any homophobic tendencies. Carries an M85X.

>600i

Mid-size multipurpose luxury jpeg worth $435. Has a martini bar and can't land on water, as Anon discovered during his free fly pilgrimage last year.

>300 series

The Scam Yiddizen equivalent of the BMW 3 series, these $55-$75 jpegs had long since been neglected in favor of other jpegs until a recent rework brought them more in line with the gay community.

>85X

This $50 roundabout included with the 890 Jump was made available for seperate purchase a while back to a surprising success. It pioneered Origin's homosexual-oriented aesthetic and carries a jump drive of its own, which is unusual among bypurchased jpegs.

See above, but this time in pure jpeg form for $220.

>P-52 Merlin

A small snub fighter jpeg with no jump drive. Comes as standard equipment on every Constellation and can even be purchased and flown separately for $20, despite the fact that the mechanics for docking/undocking from its mothership have yet to be implemented and likely never will. The Constellation Phoenix comes with a souped up version called the P-72 Archimedes, which is yet to be made flyable.

>Corsair

Pirate explorer concept jpeg worth $195.

>Caterpillar

A $295 pirate trader jpeg. It was once said to possess modular, detachable hull sections with various options for outfitting beyond the simple trade role, but little has been heard of these game mechanics for quite some time now.

$110 pirate fighter jpeg with no ejection seat.

>Cutlass

$100-$150 light-medium multipurpose jpeg. Comes in Black, Blue and Red, of which only the Black version aimed at bad goy pirates can currently be flown with Blue being some military patrol refit concept and Red a dedicated space ambulance concept with custom gameplay mechanics tied to it.

>Kraken

A $1650 jpeg carrier concept. send help

>Polaris

A $750 torpedo destroyer corvette jpeg concept that bullied the Retaliator to obsolescence.

>Constellation series

The game's iconic mainstay medium multipurpose jpeg. One of the first flyable large jpegs, it pioneered many a bugged game mechanic and played host to various fantasies of Christ Robbers throughout the game's development, leading to various strange design choices, bad cockpit views, multiple versions and a snub fighter that can't detach from its mothership and never will.

It comes in 4 versions starting at the $150 Taurus freighter, the $225 Andromeda multipurpose, the $310 Aquila explorer with a free Ursa rover and finally the $350 Phoenix richfag version feat. a working Piano.

>Apollo

A $250 medivac concept jpeg with a $275 version that has more armor and missiles.

>Aurora

The default starter jpeg for every new player post-release. As Scam Yiddizen is in eternal development the Aurora is currently available in a variety of $20-$45 versions all of which can't do shit other than suck dick.

Serious question: what the fuck is Star Citizen even supposed to be? When it was first announced my thoughts were "neat, a new Wing Commander style game" and I let it drop off my radar because I don't buy games that aren't even out yet.

Then I checked back on it and the company was selling 50,000$+ models and even insurance for your space ships and you have to shower and take shits in-game. Is this supposed to become some autistic life simulator where you have to do every real-life chore in the game as well? And what is the deal with insurance, don't tell me they plan to have permadeath on a virtual good that costs more than a real-life car. How the fuck we go from "shoot at enemy ships" to "mundane life simulator, but in space"? I used to think that those German forklift simulators were weird, but at least you don't have to sell your kidneys for those.

I imagine it's the same deal as with Full Spectrum Warrior. Software developed for a non-gaming purpose (in the case of FSW as a training tool for squad tactics) where the developer later decided to reuse the tech to make a game out of it.

i backed it at the lowest possible level that came with a ship (i think fifty bucks) back when it seemed like a good idea and before the unbelievably huge feature creep began. i check in on it every few months/year or so to see what's different and to see if it's a game yet. it isn't

>what the fuck is it even supposed to be?

nobody really knows. every autistic whale who has pumped triple digits or more into this thinks that their own retarded personal idea of gameplay is going to be in. i ended up getting too exasperated with the cult-like mentality in the forums to keep reading, but there are people who genuinely think they are going to make money selling player characters that they have taken hostage for ransom, or people who think that they're going to be able to actively terraform planets. i think a conservative idea of what it's actually going to be is "a slightly bigger elite dangerous that costs way more to play"

>insurance

the insurance system that is in place right now entitles you to a free replacement of a stock version of your ship if it gets destroyed. insurance is going to be available for in-game credits. i think we're coming up on something big insurance-wise; they've painted themselves into a corner on the idea of insurance and they need to shit or get off the pot. is your multi-hundred or -thousand dollar ship going to disappear when {420}xXxBoNgLaSeRxXx rams you or not? I can already see the lawsuits and i have a hunch that the system they'll end up settling on will be "if you bought a ship for real money it permanently has insurance, if you bought it for in-game credits you will have to buy insurance"

>shower and take shits

not going to be a thing, and if it is i think it'll be one of those things you can do if you're bored or are in FTL travel or something. they've stated a couple of times that this isn't going to be a survival game, you won't need to eat or sleep or anything like that

i don't want you to misunderstand me here, i think they have already failed at delivering the product they initially proposed and i think it's going to end up being a pretty bad game even when it's all said and done, but hate it for the right reasons

That actually is equally possible and retarded.

I mean just in terms of in-game logic atmospheric flight should be preserved for special use and smaller ships as anything else would just not make sense due to the high energy requirement of keeping the titanic afloat close to a planet. Not to mention that this means that every ship has to be aerodynamic, which once again does not make sense for gigantic ships.

Does this man even understand basic imaginary future physics ?

I mean seriously, even today cruise ships often dont dock themselves, but instead transport passengers via smaller ferries.

Sure, its all play pretend, but common sense applies even in fiction. Even more so in a larp-heavy game like this.

Basically Star Citizen was announced 6 years ago and it's is a game that's so fucking ambitious it's impossible it will ever actually be finished let alone live up to all the hype.

Millions have already been given to it though crowdfunding, but they just keep letting people give them money for this game that will never actually come out.

People who drink the Star Citizen Kool laid are convinced that once the game is out it will be the greatest video game human kind will ever make so they keep sinking in more money on virtual shit so they'll have bragging rights in a game that will never be finished.

There's a lot of contradictory information out there. Apparently, 2020 was initially slated as a full release of SQ42. Now, you can find articles saying that it will be a beta with the release of new content in an episodic manner.

>Chris had scrapped because he figured they could make it better. Now they started redoing it all over

If leaks are to be believed, this is not exclusive to the FPS module. Roberts has been rumored to modify otherwise finished work. There are also facts to support this, as some ships have been made unavailable due to being remodeled after their first release.

It's really uncanny how similar Duke Nukem Forever and Star Citizen are. Both are run by egomaniacs who want to make the bestest game of all time and who just don't know when to stop. DNF had to be restarted time and time again because every time the technology became outdated. Every time another game did something, DNF had to have that as well. Eventually the investors had to step in and take development away by force. Another company was then given the ungrateful task to wrap it up and push it out of the door one way or another.

If Star Citizen ever comes out that's how I envision it to happen. Roberts will be forcefully removed from the project and someone else will be set up to wrap up the loose ends and release what's there.

I don't believe that Robers is a scammer. I believe he is a giant manchild who has zero emotional control and just doesn't know when to draw a line. The man went broke several times and his passion were always movies. Star Citizen and even his earlier games were just him LARPing as a movie director in a medium that is more tolerant of shit writing. Let's be honest, the story of Wing Command would never win an award, the reason people loved it was because 1) no game had ever done something, and 2) because it was there to enrich a fun game.

I don't get it, there are so many much more fun hobbies than pretending to fly a space ship when you're all lonely in your home. If I had more money than I could spend I would buy a cool sports car, a motor cycle, or do cool sports like fencing. If I wanted to be really nerdy I could start buying authentic arcade machines or something like that, at least then I would have something that I actually own then.

Playing with play-pretend space ships should be something poor people do because it requires no material investment, only a computer and time to unlock content. This really is clown-world.

No fear citizen, they've started selling tugboat ships with industral sized tractor beams for the sole purpose of dragging those large ships off of planets. All for the low low price of $150! Buy now because Cig will increase it to $175 two years from now when they finally add it to the game, and to $200 when they actually add the first iteration tractor beam mechanics to the game sometime in 2024.

the problem is they made the mistake of selling giant cargo barge ships that hold *4 to 8 times* what similarly sized conventional cargo ships carry. And this massive cargo difference was suppose to be entirely balanced around the idea that the barges can't land on planets while normal cargo ships can. So they have to have those regular big ass ships able to land in atmosphere now or else there is literally no reason for them to exist in the same game where there's a flying space barge that holds 5 times as much.

They've already gone full kike so they may as well demand that you have to have a large crew on the barge in order to operate it and have the regular large ships be pilotable by a single player.

But that solution is probably too sensible and not in line with Roberts' line of thinking like >>16497976 explained.

They don't even have orbital stations? Starport authorities or anything to handle that kinda stuff? IT'S NOT EXACTLY AN ALIEN CONCEPT, CHRIS!

>none of these shits you call space ships could even remotely exist in this universe

You can make a spaceship look like basically anything. The biggest problem with their designs is that they lack a deflector dish and that's probably hand waved away with force fields or something.

If you made a space sim where all the ships are little girls, could it outsell this or no because loli are anaethema to goons?

It is but even how the 'force field' covers the ship is ludicrous. Its either too small or too fucking large.

On the bright side of things, either the game never comes out and we laugh as they get jewed for 5 or 6 figures, or it comes out like a fucking miracle, and we shift into space furry holocaust mode and get to fucking bully them and destroy their most expensive jpegs as they shit and cry in their fursuits.

They do have space stations, but none of the xbox hueg jpegs with external cargo racks are ingame and probably never will be so the gameplay mechanics revolving around the handling of their cargo are also missing.

In Chris' game mechanic fanfics it was said that operators of Hulls and similarly large jpegs could have local station Argos unload the cargo boxes in exchange for a fee or do it themselves which would of course take ages because immersion.

That same document also said that cargo purchased through regular means at a Starport would have to be loaded and unloaded in a hyper-realistic fashion on all ships with cargo bays, however this feature was mysteriously dropped in 3.0 so buying/selling cargo just spawns and despawns nondescript boxes inside the jpeg.
