You mean Zenimax Online?

Whatever.

 

The point is, that was a game that could have been great, and was made less, because of stupidity on behalf of many of the fans, and very much so because of the developer (should have just told the consoles to piss off. screw console gaming)

I've been saying this all along but this game when/if it ever gets released will now be what people thaught it was going to be. It's not a focused development at all. A game that had a very focused development was Elite Dangerous and that game released ages ago and it was a really good game. Both started development at the same time yet Elite released much sooner. Over ambitious and zero focus on what the game will be.

May have been said in the other pages of this tread, but you are factually wrong.

 

Yes, Elite Dangerous was announced at the same time as Star Citizen, but the fact is, they have had people working on it for multiple years before that, mostly on the game engine part of things.

 

And dont come and say that Star Citizen already had an engine. because Cryengine isnt made for the type of game that Star citizen are at all. they have modified it so much that it is most likely more modifications and added stuff that it is Cryengine itself.

They seem to be a game developer than instead of focusing on one thing, finish that, move to next and repeat, doing a lot of things at the same time. They work on SP, the engine (behind the scene stuff), ships, environment, lore, story and more. they seem to have different people working on all the different things.

 

And when you do that, development will look slower at the start than it really is, but at the end of development, it will look like they work at super speed, because they are finishing multiple parts of the game.

Expects a huge game to come out in 3 years while the industry average is 5 years for experienced developers. Toppest of the keks.

It has only been 3 years ?! Feels like 10 with all the talk about it and no release date. 

 

Cant blame them then, Daybreak's H1Z1 has been in alpha stage for 2 years

I just wonder if Linus is totally over the game or he still will smile like a kid when it comes out, just like he did when he met the guy who created it

They just released a behind the scenes video showing the prep before Citizencon.

The chapter is clearly already done and was supposed to be shown, but they had some AI pathing issues and animation issues like characters floating in the air while sitting.

That's not really bad considering those are common bugs in nearly every game I've ever played.

even if it's common, Chris won't accept it, and thus it wasn't approved, they will show it when it meets his standards, he was really upset that the shaders weren't working last year for the morrow tour

Well, there is S.C.H.E.M.A.T.A. (formerly known as BIG S.C.A.M. ) to satisfy your huge ass manual needs...

Well this is more about the fact that the game play is still amazingly shallow for all intents and purposes. I'm looking forward to seeing this fleshed out not a doom and gloom comment.
