Yes, because the problem is the OS it runs on and not that the devs can do nothing but lie.
Squadron 42 was nearly complete and needed polish in 2023 and now we learn a year later it’s delayed till 2026.
Just like the game itself started production in 2011 and has since missed date after date after date and produced an expensive and constantly broken tech demo mess.
But yeah if only it were on Linux and has nothing to do with the misuse of funds and said broken promises
They said it was nearly complete in 2016, so that makes sense to be honest. I don’t know why everyone is bitching about this.
Surely nearly every other game in existence has also required ten years of polishing after development is finished!!
Broken promise after promise, missed release date after release date, broken feature after broken feature after every rework
it’s clearly a fucking 13-year-old scam, it’ll be goddamn voting age before it’s released.
Early access is one thing, production on this thing begin TWENTY GODDAMN ELEVEN.
thirteen years ago, that ain’t early access, that’s a fucking scam that ain’t ever delivering.
Who are you trying to sell this broken mess of lies to? This is the definition of sunk cost fallacy lol.
Yeah keep having fun without us in your thirteen year old tech demo!! We certainly won’t miss the broken mining ships, the random wipes, the endless bugs that toss you out of your ship into space for bumping into something. I’m sure they’ll get to all the stretch goals too, all 65million dollars “worth”! You really showed us
Automatically assume the worst? WE’VE HAD OVER A DECADE to get to this point.
LMAO you’re the MAGA-parallel here.
Is it really “love to hate” or is it just that after a decade of failed and ignored promises and dates year after year after year nobody has any real faith. 65 million dollars in stretch goals and it’s still a fucking broken mess, endless examples.
The squadron demo fucking crashed when it was shown at the con, yet its feature complete but also not releasing until 2026.
Have you even seen the insanity that is the stretch goals? https://robertsspaceindustries.com/funding-goals
It’s all but a grift, and here you are defending the grifters. Maybe in ANOTHER decade they’ll actually deliver what people were promised (and paid for!) years and years ago.
Looks like a fun game isn’t what is being discussed here.
What IS being discussed is if this so called “feature complete” game is ever gonna come out. If its feature complete how is it crashing in the first demo they show? 2026 is a long ways away for a feature complete game.
As a dev, I realize feature complete doesn’t mean done but it also doesn’t mean an extra two years lead time before release either.
Just like the rest of Star citizen, aspirational date after date with no serious commitment. What they do release is either a little or a lot broken. This shits been going on for over a decade, but yeah it’s totally different now (but like, not now, but in 2026!)
….but it lOoKs LiKe A fUn GaMe!!!!!!
Hey look, it’s one of those gullible marks.
“Feature complete” but they can’t release it for another two years? Hmmm…… 🤔
As a dev myself this shit is hilarious
12+ years
hundreds of milllions of dollars invested
65+ million dollars in stretch goal funding
All that and you get:
a cool tech demo that you can play (when it’s not broken or wiped)
hahahahahahahahahahaha
Look at the list of stretch goals, 65 million dollars worth. What have they delivered from that?
https://robertsspaceindustries.com/funding-goals
It’s a grift, they ain’t delivering all that lmao
Classic, the person who doesn’t know what they’re talking about is SO sure that they know the truth. So much so they’re out here correcting people and handing out false info.
so the engine they are building is actually pretty good
Keep living in a false reality pal. I’m sure you k or so much more than the engine dev who replied to you.
How much $$ have you wasted on star citizen lmao
Don’t forget the fucking thing crashed when they tried to demo it lmao
