Along with that in 3.14, new power management and missile stuff that will hopefully make multi-person ships effective compared to each person in their own ship.
I'd like to think this lets them finally settle on a flight model and figure out combat balance, but not optimistic because the planned ship armor/damage system isn't in yet. I'll continue to fire it up for a couple of hours every patch to go sightseeing, but it's a ways off of gameplay that I'd want to sink real time into.
All that said, you can get in for $45, and I've paid more than that for worse games. I'm looking forward to my next sightseeing trip to the volumetric clouds of Crusader.
- least 5y agoI wanted a game and I believed deeply in Chris Roberts vision because it's something that matches my own idea of a perfect game. Enough so to spend $120 on it sight unseen, without even the hangar demo being out for it. Eight years later and there's still nothing but a bunch of ever-increasing and ever-expanding 'systems' they want to show off. I'm not interested in tech demos. I don't care about how they're adding one more new system into the 'game.' I don't care that they've figured out some beautiful lighting or entry into a planet or gigantic dune-like space worms or an FPS system or a prison system or anything like that. I'm not interested in going sightseeing, even if they are very impressive to behold. My computer that I bought for Star Citizen can't even really run it competently the way it is now. I've given up on it. if they ever do release an actual game, I'll reevaluate then. But frankly I can't share your enthusiasm for it.
