After all the teasing and thinking it would be a rip off from Chris Roberts and all other arguments trying to sink it, it's deserved for all those that posted the same negative crap in multiple posts on this entire thread.

If you actually read their post on the RSI site, the date is still a PLANNED date, so nothing is absolute. Also if you read their plans, they will be starting their intensive bug testing in two days, and will be doing that right up until building a RC for deployment.

My prediction is they will either miss their date, or it will release as a bug ridden catastrophe which they will eventually fix.

Edit: I'd love to be proven wrong of course.

We're getting more than planned though, as what was planned was the single player for everyone initially and at the same time for everyone, and then adding multiplayer gradually but they're configuring as many cloud servers as possible right now.

With more content comes more bugs and potentially large enough to delay the launch, so it kinda goes hand in hand.

Only if you let it. The concept is called scope creep, and needs to be managed properly for software projects to have a chance of being successful.

I'm not even mentioning successful, but the release of of the next module which everyone knows is at the minimum, a beta release?

They have to be pretty sure it's at least good enough to have actually made an announcement, and this time, on an exact day.

I wouldn't hold my breath, they will announce the exact day, only to delay.

This is what is unique about Star Citizen – you are getting a very close and personal look at what development is like from the inside. Enjoy the ride!

It feels good to be part of a mature game community like this Cool where developers don't have to go around hiding things from spoiled brats while spoon feeding them some porridge.

Groovy, hope they do that on time. What, 12 days until this thread dies? ...well for at least a little while.. Blink
Sort of like what happened with Black Prophecy. It was the coming messiah, no one could stand up to it's glassy-eyed pre-launch fandom invading every part of the interwebs. RIP BP o7

Doubt I'll stop playing EVE because of Star Citizen. I bought into the alpha/beta thing, and I'll check it out...eventually...

You know the funny part?.... if the game really is launched on the 29th, the same users that had doubts and endlessly posted them on this very thread, will still find a reason to continue to be negative and spinning it their way.....

you know what's even funnier? The fact that you think just because the dfm or Arena Commander, is launched on the delayed third time, time, that it will change any of the opinions of us. It won;t. Because that is a small aspect of what is suppose to come out, as a whole. DFM could come out and just compete with valk and that might be the end.

My guess, once everything is put together, all what 5 components he is launching sperately, come together and you see the big picture, only then will you know. I don;t think is vapor ware, i actually think it will all come out. I just doubt it will a) be a huge success long term and b) do jack **** to eve.

I hold judgement on A, but most of the crap spouted by the two who seem to be holding there breath till this thing come out, make me think this game will be the biggest flop in video game history. But i was wrong about the ipad so what do i know.

and of course, as i said above, until the ENTIRE game is out, and all the pieces are working together, you really dunno how it will play or run. As each on there own could be a lot of fun, but the moment you sandwich it together you might find that was fun alone, now is a pita with all the other stuff added.

See, the excuses start to come out rather than eat their own words....P


I never mentioned the entire game even once or how it'll balance out or any of that, it was you that insisted more times than I can count that we still had nothing to show for it except the hangar....

correct. because they still don;t. in 11 days they might. but i never talking about DFM, i mean he entire game. As until then you don;t know how anything will actually work. which is what i have said form my very first post. you just seem to think that the DFM being out, if it comes out, changes things, when it doesn;t. Reading comprehension ftw

Please refer to this post to learn how the final version of the game will work. That information has been released before by the community manager and the lead game designer.

Seems like some people still have a death grip on Star Citizens ball sack.

I feel like a SC "fan" is more like just an Eve bitter veteran.
