  So… they did more mocap / voice recording / whatever this is called… Hamill and Oldman gave their initial performance to be digitized, in October of 2015.

  I think that if you go with all the celeb mocap sessions, they added more celebs and had finished ‘shooting’ by around 2018.

  So… this is like… a movie that’s been in production hell for a decade. Thats… another way you can try to look at this. You’ll be watching performances initially made over a decade ago.

  … assuming… this… comes out … this year.

  They probably need another billion dollars.

  This fucking game is approaching TWO decades of development… I do gotta hand it to the devs, they know how to keep suckers… I mean, players on the hook for a long time and keep the fomo alive with their outrageous pledge pricing model. They must’ve been excellent dairy farmers in past lives…

    I grabbed it on sale for like $10, even for $10 it wasn’t really worth it. So much broken shit, and then almost nothing to do.

  I still chuckle when I think about my buddy getting himself the new GTX 970 so his rig would be ready for the upcoming release of Star Citizen.

    I got my Star citizen with a hundle for AMD radeon r7… Yep. Totally game ready.

  Oh did I say closing stages of development… No no no, you misunderstand, I was talking about the closing stages of the ‘pre-alpha test build’ development, we still need more money support to finish the project.

  Many years ago, I was this close to buying this game because they were saying that the single player campaign was almost ready. I am glad I didn’t. Now, I wouldn’t give a single cent to this guy.

  The actual statement has too many qualifiers:

  “As we get imminently closer to launch—and I say that in game development language—it’s very hard to keep it under wraps”

  “As we get” is not “we are”. He is saying that in some inteterminate future where they are getting closer to launch, they will say more.

  By not having more to say, the implication is that they are not close. They also soft-cancelled the 2026 release estimate, and did not put forward a new one. If they were anywhere near getting it done, they’d be talking which quarter of 2027 by now.

    When did they soft cancel the 2026 release?

    source

    • Deestan@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨minutes⁩ ago

      “Soft cancel” as in stopped talking about it long ago and dodging questions about it.

    I remember being so excited for the then upcoming 2014 release…

    • fartographer@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨hour⁩ ago

      They still have some time to make it before the late last moments of the quarter for a year of some number.

  The 42 in Squadron 42 stands for the year 2042. Compared to Star Citizen, it’s truly imminent to release.

  • fartographer@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨hour⁩ ago

    Someone should patch Cyberpunk 2077 to include billboards for the upcoming release of Squadron 42.

      Now that is a good idea for a gimmick mod.

      Also… there are actually are mods that figured out how to make player flyable AVs. Its jank, but it ain’t nothin.

  Even if it gets released in at the end of 2027, i won’t touch it until a patch has been pushed to fix the inevitable issues that will pop up.

  I assume this statement is about pushing investors for more money.

  It’s pure sunk cost fallacy at this point.

  Well, maybe we’ll get another animated space action short out of it, which is entertaining in it’s own right. I wouldn’t hold my breath for an actual release.

  Don’t worry, the devs will crunch for a few days around release so that they can put out a new trailer with a new promised release date.
