Over 10 Years After It Was Announced, Star Citizen’s Single-Player Squadron 42 Is ‘Feature Complete’ - IGN::Star Citizen developer Cloud Imperium Games has said Squadron 42, the single-player portion of its controversial space sim, is finally “feature complete”, over a decade after it was announced.
It’s not money laundering. It’s crowdfunding as a primary business model. The point isn’t to finish the game, but to keep baiting people with carrots-on-sticks until they get sick of the grift and the money dries up.
You think you can’t use crowdfunding as a vehicle to launder money?
I can’t imagine still thinking this after seeing that the game is actually releasing…
I was coming in here to see if the positivity actually carries over to various places as I was surprised to see all the positive YouTube comments on ign, but lemmy always seems to have a extra serving of negativity in all things… Oh well.
Don’t deprive yourself of a good time, if you have the means to play it I would absolutely check out star citizen when they have their free to play events.
Oh shit it’s releasing? When?
More than likely in the next year to year and a half. They specifically mentioned they are entering the polish phase in the video they released that these articles are referencing.
They don’t give dates anymore because they did like twice in the early 2010s and then changed the scope of the engine completely so they got a ton of shit about it. The game is super late because they went from starfield “loading screen to surface” to a system where there are no loading screens ever and you can go wherever you want.
Just more of the same old soon™, then
