Meanwhile India landed on the moon for 65 millions, and the guys at star citizen can’t even land a spaceship on a simulated moon for 700 millions.
Hey, SC got landing on moons working a long time ago at 100 million, so they’re a close second to India.
I expect to see many videos exploring the failures of this project in the future, maybe a few lawsuits. It would be a miracle if a good complete game worth this investment was created.
Eh, I think CIG has enough true believers buying JPEGs for this to continue pretty much until the whales die of old age or just run out of money to send him. I wouldn’t be shocked if we’re still talking about this in another decade, except this time it’s $1.2 billion in funding.
After a couple trillions in funding maybe we will see a true 1 to 1 to real life physics engine lol
After that much funding it would have been cheaper to build a real space program.
Yes but would a real space program have you fall through the floor of your toilet and spin off out into space? I don’t think so.
| you fall through the floor of your toilet and spin off out into space
$40 worth of the right mushroom variety can get you the same effect.
How many mushrooms can I get in exchange for these stupid spaceship jpegs?
Give me an extra trillion and I can make it happen for you.
Not gonna lie. I was a huge fan of wing commander and freelancer. I backed this early, but for a while now I’ve given up on ever expecting anything from this project.
I’m not sure it’s actually a scam, but probably a vision that got away from them due to feature creep. At this point I don’t even care.
Same boat.
How to launder money 101
They aren’t laundering money. No. They’re basically just setting it on fire.
See, Chris Roberts is the king of feature creep. He keeps wanting to add in the new shiny while not paying attention to finishing the shit that’s already on the list.
They’ve also thrown out previous work to start over again more than once.
Star Citizen needs something like what happened to Freelancer if they ever want to release: change of management. It suffered the exact same feature creep and that only ended when Microsoft stepped in and ousted Roberts
I really wish star citizen was real, but it’s so bad. It’s completely unplayable on most hardware and full of bugs
I bought some basic package God knows how long ago and check in every couple years. It’s a joke how little progress they’ve made.
Hey give them a break, they only have a small measly $600 million budget and have been in development for a short 11 years.
The single greatest theft in gaming history. People will defend this unfinishable mess for decades to come.
Typical sunken cost fallacy
At the time (think it was 2012) I paid 50€ for it. Got it refunded like 4 or 5 years later since there still was nothing concrete.
They haven’t yet decided how they want the flight model to work.
In a game about flying.
A decade old.
These clowns paid for Mark Hamil to do a voice in their unfinished spaceshiperooni game merely because they could
They have no idea how to responsibly allocate their budget or schedules
There are stretch goals that go all the way to 65 million, and then it stops there. Since it’s obvious those goals were reached a LONG time ago, does anyone know if those are already in the game?
About half of them are in the game at this moment.
How the hell are they still getting money, and where does it even go
RSI is really stretching their dev time out so they can pocket as much cash as possible
I wonder if they know that starfield is coming out, no man’s sky’s been available forever, and there’s a plethora of other games out there.
I think people are addicted to a fantasy.
Good old star shitizen. I regret the day my friends conned me into this shit game.
That’s amazing. Is this money protected somehow or are we seeing a bunch of people get scammed?
Scammed, but they’re like knowingly being scammed. It’s not a secret and the people seem totally willing to keep putting money in.
A feature they share with the MAGA movement
Reminds me of ant lines.
When the game is overdue by nearly a decade and has numerous controversie, that’s usually not a good sign.

Overpromise Underdeliver And Repeat again with a new feature, new ships or whatever that requires a new payment.
Is this game even playable yet?
Well…depends on what you want to do I guess. I do not own it but you can do stuff for sure…
Complete? No it isn’t and never will be as they want to do crazier and crazier stuff and keep asking money in a way or another…
Holy fuck the opinions there are around. I haven’t played it, seems I saved myself from a bad experience.
