Star Citizen

Some of you may know already that star citizen has started a "Summer free fly" event in which you can try the game for free. I'm here to try to spread the word. If you do pick up a package and join the game, feel free to use my referral code, STAR-P3S5-MYBK. The code will give you and me rewards, including free in-game money. Happy flying.

Cbf till capital ships are implemented and mission scenario are interesting instead of this x-rebirth release tier space game.

I hear they are re-writing the network backend for Cryengine for the 2nd time.

Please comeback if this game ever exits development hell.

No mans sky will at least nail exploration, the only glaring fault of that game is it won't attempt any sort of player economy.

This game is suppose to be an end all be all, but the dream is too big when the technology wasn't even proven yet.

If you look at the existing space combat games, there is that massive gap in game play content. Only the X series has been trying to fill the void, while games like Elite:Dangerous fall off the mark into morrowind / truck simulator territory.

wtf is star citizen?

is this some early access f2p mmo shit on steam?

lol, no. It's only THE game that will change the gaming industry for good. It'll make gaming good again. Except, it won't because it'll never be released.

EVE meets Star Wars Galaxies (planetary)

It's gonna be good.

I have high hopes for it, but it's going to take a while to release. From what I've seen they have finally started doing work again on playable features, and it's much more of a game than it was last year

lol, is this scam seriously still going on?

Go play it. It's fun.

>scam
WHERE MUH MOST AMBITIOUS MMO EVER MADE? ITS BEEN FOUR WHOLE YEAAAAARS

Vaporware

Fuck this shit. This is going to be pay-for-win as fuck... You see how much did ship cost?

>organizations that pool their money together will be able to start off with a capital ship instead of get it within 48 hours of launch
FUCKING WOW SHIT GAME

Why is Derek's game highlighted? Anyone using Derek as a fucking benchmark is doomed to fail.

I've never played a game in the X series. Best one to play if I just want an overall awesome experience?

Stay mad, Developer but no one cares about your fucking scam.

>YES YES GIVE US MONEY
>WE ARE GOING TO MAKE THE BEST SPACE GAME
>MORE MONEY YES

>>organizations that pool their money together will be able to start off with a capital ship instead of get it within 48 hours of launch
Is there any idea of how long it will take to earn ships in game? Cause if it's too fast the tears from the whales will be glorious.

lurk more faggot.

>re-writing the network backend for Cryengine for the 2nd time

That's easy as fuck to do, user. Practically 3 weeks worth of work if you're lazy.

>people still use this shitty bait


They have said time and time again, buying ships with real money right now is only an incentive to fund the game while it's being developed and once the game is released the only way to get ships will be through in game currency that you earn

the ships that are being bought right now won't even be as good as the versions you earn in-game either

They've been said to be attainable by players rather easily. Thing is, the whales knew this going in.

Because he's the one doing most of the shitting on this game. I'll give it 7 years like I gave Elder Scrolls Online putting it at late 2018 with an open beta in mid 2018.

Why is rewriting the network code for CryEngine a bad thing? Do you know how many networking gods they've hired since the last rewrite? Now they can get it perfect.

>Thing is, the whales knew this going in.
They're still going to cry and shit the bed. Even though the SC community usually declares "pledges" to be donations rather than purchases.

>Because he's the one doing most of the shitting on this game.
Sure but it's best to just ignore him. He's never made a decent game in his life.

>I'll give it 7 years like I gave Elder Scrolls Online putting it at late 2018 with an open beta in mid 2018.
This is for the full SC game yeah? SQ42 is supposed to come out this year I heard.

Is this a literal shill thread?

SQ42's first episode should be showcased this year at CitizenCon in October and maybe a December launch, but I'm expecting a Q2 2017 release with a Q3-Q4 Star Citizen launch

What are some good space games like star citizen?

Can't tell if this is a shill thread or not but is it actually worth trying out?

I just came here to share a referral code and the fact that it's free fly week. ;-;

>STAR-P3S5-MYBK

Fuck it I'll use the code. Thanks user.

I'd recommend it. In the future though, don't listen to anything Sup Forums has to say about Star Citizen, they said the same shit when I was talking about Insurgency (crowdfunded) and Grim Dawn (crowdfunded) in the early days.

There are no games like SC yet. But there are simpler space sims like Freelancer.

I might play so that I can play with the real man Dan Gheesling, so if I do I'll use your code, user.

My honest opinion on the game. It was awful at first, with only a instanced dogfighting sim. But recently with the adding of the actual open world, missions, shops, launch pads, and the stations, it has really become a lot more interesting. They bit off quite a bit of game, but I'd rather have them release it late with what they promised then release it early broken as hell.

it's unfortunate that there won't be any interesting industrial autism available to do
just mining and hauling and node shenanigans

>Shilling your referral code

You deserve all the shitposting coming your way, Op.

don't fucking fall for this shit

the 'game' is never coming out

>I'm expecting a Q2 2017 release with a Q3-Q4 Star Citizen launch

just lol

o7

that's coming in 2.7 release (October)

Wow. So this is the power of PC gaming. Unfinished garbage that charges thousands of dollars for DLC.
