Behold the next Gamescom JPG sale is announced for 400hundreds of $$$$$$$$$$$$$ !!! Buy quickly or you will never be able to get this ship with LTI again ... unless you use one of the countless official loopholes like ship upgrades that is! Get the JPG while it's hot! Who cares about playable games anyways!  :nod:

Who cares about 3.0! We'll get another concept JPG that will blow many of the previous concept JPGs out of the water and because it's for funding the game it's not even Pay to Win!

And to the naysayers! No it will never be pay to win ... how could it ever be pay to win if the game never releases and hence you can't "win"? Think about it. Also, they will never have to worry about bad reviews (paid for by the evil publishers) that way! Best Damn Space Sim forever!

The Gamescom streaming hast started: https://www.twitch.tv/starcitizen

Get ready for some hot pre-pre-3.0-alpha action. Including lots of things glitching out and the server resetting every 15minutes (if it doesn't crash before that)

Tuned in, first thing they're talking about are melee takedowns and melee weapons. Guess someone at CIG saw the new trailer for Mount and Blade Bannerlord.

 CR sees something cool in another game's gameplay (the **** is gameplay?) video
 CR immediately demands this **** be put in Star Citizen
 No it doesn't matter that there's no game yet, put this feature in

Battlefield 3 had those melee takedowns already mind you. BF4 expanded upon them, and then BF1 actually toned them down because it got a bit excessive :P

That gif really represents starcitizen so well. a lot of flailing around, while going absolutely nowhere.
Also absolutely devoid of color, the only thing you see is grey and brown.

Re: Wing Commander 6: The Undiscovered Release Date (Star Citizen Thread)
I don't know what we're defining as melee takedowns but Halo Reach had assassinations back in 2010 and Titanfall used very similar animation system. There are probably even earlier examples but I'm lazy. Is CR that behind the times that he's only now discovering FPS melee takedowns?

CR isn't a gamer and probably thinks his ideas are as fresh today as they were in 1995.

If he wanted to come back to the industry you'd think he'd pay a little attention to what's been going on.

Re: Wing Commander 6: The Undiscovered Release Date (Star Citizen Thread)
I haven't played Infinite War but a goddamn FPS studio was able to get some semblance of a space combat game out in ~2 years and it looked good if nothing else. I don't know enough of House of the Dying Sun's development history other than its name change from a while ago but it was a handful of people and it got a release.

I know I shouldn't be surprised anymore but the depths of depravity on display here is absurd. ****ing Ninja Theory made a fantastic and gorgeous looking ~8 hour game loaded with cutscenes and requiring tons of research and care and they self published it and here CRoberts is unable to make a follow up to Wing Commander even.

Hell with a team of 6 people and 2 voice actors I managed to release a game in 9 months as part of my senior year of college. The game has its fair share of design issues and looks like a student project but it's complete, working, and reasonably stable.
