I like how, in spite of apparently having all this planet generation tech developed, they still need to Archer a picture of Milford Sound for their promotional pictures of the badly-designed dune buggy. 



It's like CR looked at the Warthog and said "make this except dumber".

I find it hilarious that with this sale (and the recent ones with space bikes) and the planetary outpost stuff, they are pushing towards combined arms warfare on planets.... without having the basic spaceship gameplay implemented.

FFS, they can't even keep the spacemans from clipping out of the space chariots when everything is static, and they want to do complex space/air/ground combat?!?

I pity the CIG code monkeys.

$48 for a glorified wheeled delivery vehicle. In a universe where you'll mostly be behind the flight stick of a spaceship. You wanna put some weapons on that delivery buggy? Well, you can, but you've got to pay $276 for the whole package.

Imagine how their junior requirements engineers must be feeling, if there are any.

I bought several AAA games for half that price.

Heck, I bought the entire ME trilogy for 15 bucks for a birthday present, that's less than a third.

But hey, I guess it has a non-trivial number of polygons.

The most amusing threads on the SC forums were always the ones were people debated whether putting 2000-3000$ into a new rig now would be a wise move or whether buying 2000-3000$ jpg Space Ships first and waiting 1-2 years until SC releases (yes! :lol:) with final system requirements, before buying the new rig, would be better.  :lol: :banghead: :nod:

I'm sure in the near future they'll use 3D printing to print rigs, thereby reducing costs. But I still have doubt on whether they had the right money to purchase such equipment...

Which also means a non-trivial number of emotions, I imagine.

We're only at a 5% efficiency rate of polygons to emotions. We need to physically model individual pores to finally reach the emotional depths needed to express the glory that is Star Citizen.

Is this fidelity, high end graphics and millions of polygons any good when there is no sense of smell at all?
That's an entire sense that has been totally neglected so far!

SC should team up with Creative immediately and develop a "Smell Blaster" PCI-Express card!!!

My immersion is ruined if they don't!

On the topic of emotions, does that mean if you pay enough to CR, you could marry a woman in SC? :p
