    Yeah thats a good recap of events to show what there is so much criticism of this game and why there is no faith at all in their ability to release a product.
    It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

    The way I see it they have until recession hits to get something out. Once the economy turns to shit for 1.5-2 years again, they will have a hard time keeping the lights on.

    The new *Star Citizen* update is looking great.


    I am being sarcastic here. This game will come out sooner and stole the spotlight pretty bad, as people are starving for a good space game. I tried so many personaly and a lot of them were just mehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
    Don't sweat the details!!!

    Cyberpunk 2077 looks awesome and is another definite blow to Star Citizen. It started pre-production in 2012 and had 50 people working on the game until 2016. Sounds familiar?

    One game will soon release, other game can't even get basic mechanics done. If Cyberpunk releases and SQ42 is still nowhere to be seen, expect drama of massive proportions. It's time to do or die for CIG, otherwise they'll soon be overshadowed.

    Yes it does look incredibly awesome but how a single player RPG is a definite blow to a Space Sim MMO is beyond me. If you had said it would be a killing blow to Bioware then I would have agreed.

    It started pre-production in 2012 and had 50 people working on the game until 2016. Sounds familiar?
    Nope, the other game had 12 people working on it in 2012. Cyberpunk 2077 has 900 devs working on it now, a little less than double that of Star Citizen and SQ42. So no, doesn't sound familiar. One of those game devs had proper state of the art studios ready to go with trained employees already familiar with their proven tool chain pipeline(an almost unspeakably huge advantage) and carrying the momentum of just finishing a succesful game, the other had a backroom office and some dreams.

    One game will soon release,
    Cyberpunk 2077 is almost certainly not releasing soon and won't be for years. CD Project Red have said that they would like to see it released in 2019 but with that lack of confidence it doesn't seem likely.

    other game can't even get basic mechanics done.
    Are we talking about Star Citizen or SQ42? Neither of those games feature "basic mechanics".

    If Cyberpunk releases and SQ42 is still nowhere to be seen, expect drama of massive proportions. It's time to do or die for CIG, otherwise they'll soon be overshadowed.
    Yes, your mates over on the ED forums will be writhing on the floor dribbling out the mouth and having fits. Cyberpunk 2077 is no competition for Star Citizen and as for SQ42 single player games don't really compete with each other unless they come out during the same release window. Most people are lucky to even spend two weeks with a single player game before moving onto something else. I have no doubt that Cyberpunk 2077 will be an incredible success and agree that there are questions marks hanging above SQ42 but comparing the two is nonsensical. Single player game success is extremely reliant on intense marketing hype concentrated around release while multiplayer games have the benefit of being able to grow due to on-going development and word of mouth. 99.9999999999999% of potential customers of both games couldn't give two sh*ts about armchair expert impressions of the internal workings of two different game companies so no there will be no drama of massive proportions. Sorry to disappoint.

    Thats strange cuz on the Wiki it said the following "The development of Cyberpunk 2077 reportedly reached a milestone in late 2017, and in March 2018, a new studio was opened in Wrocław to aid the production. That July, nearly 350 employees were developing it," ...thats not even close to the 900 you pulled out of your ass

    I didn't pull it out of my ass it came from Reddit that turned out to be incorrect as I just confirmed for myself.

    That will teach me for just going by the headline.

    No wonder Star Citizen supporters are so delusional. They're willing to believe everything on just random hearsay.

    well it's just a skin for that particular ship, i doubt they will do any cross chassis skinning, unless they are going to implement "chop-shop" like gameplay, though you will be able to spoof your signatures to resemble different ships, but that's not a visual change.

    for anyone who wants to get the skin, even without the purchase of the Starrunner ship for their account, follow these instructions for it:

    STARRUNNER ALTERNATE SKIN ACQUISITION! hurry though, before the event ends.

    do not expect any honesty, introspection and civility from people who argue disingenuously and propagate misinformation, try to impose their own views on others, tell others how to spend their own money and willfully mislead people to meet their rather strange agenda. they do not want to speak in facts, they just want to feel good by tearing other people and what they enjoy down, all because they themselves do not enjoy it. i find it rather perplexing that gamers are advocating for fewer games to be made and for games to fail. /shrug. anyway, i acknowledge your correction and apology.

The SC community is by far the best I've ever dealt with by a country mile out of any large gaming community period.
