I don't think Roberts is malicious or greedy, I just don't think he's up to the task of creating what he's promised (if it's possible at all).

Do you mean you don't think Squadron 42 the stand alone single player game that is to be released soon won't be out until 2018?

Or Do you mean you don't think Squadron 42 and the 2 DLC chapters won't be released until 2018?

Or Do you mean you don't think Squadron 42 and the 2 DLC chapters and the Complete Star Citizen Persistent Universe MMO won't be released until 2018?

I mean that by 2018 there will be a game released called Star Citizen that contains some or all of the promised content. I don't know the detail of what that's likely to be and I don't think I'd be qualified to judge even if I had detailed knowledge of the goals.

If a game of some description isn't released it's because CIG is no longer a going concern.

Thanks HJ_KG for making my "I'm a mother $#@!ing ninja" complete.

Tldr version could have been what MrChaos said

I'm going to mint this day for sure as Senior BT did a really witty post invoking my name on top of other things

Star citizen will fail, wayyyy too much feature creep.

And after 100 millions in crowdfunding and an incredible number of promises, where are we? Still in alpha? wth only one system of the "persistent universe" available

Don't get me wrong the game looks stunning but as crysis 3 it holds no gameplay value for me atm

any game that takes longer to develop than it takes wales to go from getting beat six-one off the serbs to getting to the semi finals of a major football tournament is doomed

and lets face it, this should not be news to anyone - all the signs were there, just like agri really knows that girl in his laundrette isnt interested in him at all, but he decides to ignore this because she smiles at him every time he goes in there to pick his work trousers up

Sigh. I miss MrC.

So what's been released for SC since this thread was last active? How is development going? It's all gone quiet in the news so I presume something's happening which is all for the good.
