Dunno. In Planetside we had a fair turnover of drivers and gunners because of pull timers and different people having different vehicle setups. Driver (or pilot) was determined by who had the most appropriate setup available to pull for what the group needed to do.

Something I realize I didn't get to touch on here. While features and functionality are seeing updates, the overall format of playing the game has still not changed. Major changes to missions, warning potential, and the reputation system are needed for this to truly feel like a different game from what we've had. They've talked about these things, but we've yet to see them prove them out. So 2024 is different for gameplay, but maybe not THAT different.

If they don't meet their 2024 end goal, will it actually matter in the short term? People who are already bought in to the experience has had quite a few experiences and there's more to come. However it doesn't mean it will actually be fun to play - interesting yes. But will it be a chore to start up knowing you've got x amount of minutes or hours of stuff to do before you can get started on what you really want to do? What if people don't want to let you do what you want to do? What scope is there for PvPvE? What scope will there be for building and making stuff to sell to others? When will that happen if it's going to happen? So yeah the Pyro system intro, instanced hangars and other stuff required to make it a connected game isn't the end goal it's just the beginning to get more solar systems online and flesh out the landscape in order to get people to enjoy what they want from Star Citizen.

I'm not nearly as excited as you are about 2024. The updates they delivered are mostly QoL stuff taken from Sq42 and some of the those things are objectively terrible, like the new hud visuals, which are an unreadable, cluttered mess that focuses on form over function. The way I see it CIG has yet to prove they can make an actual game. Yes, we do have some gameloops, but without any meaningful progression, player driven economy and an overarching narrative that ties everything together, those are little more than tech demos and proofs of concept. And speaking of progression: the only kind if progression we have rn in the game is buying larger ships, which is completely corrupted by the fact that they are selling those ships on their website, so they'll have a ton of work to do if they ever want to get away from the image of SC being blatantly p2w. To me the crucial moment for the development of SC only comes after 4.0 once server meshing is implemented and working, as it is needed to make the game properly function on a foundational level. After that we'll see whether the devs are capable of actually building a proper MMO with enjoyable gameplay and progression.

Here's the thing bro. I love playing this game. It scratches the space itch for me. That being said, the game is pissing me off lately. Here's a small list of things that happened yesterday when I was on. Global chat was broken. F11 brings up the menu, words won't show up. Hit enter from the game, sometimes it would come up. Other times, it would just freeze the game. Bought a new ship, figured Id try it out with some simple delivery missions. Start to land on a completely empty landing pad, gatlin gun just randomly falls off. Go out to get it, can't pick it up. Try to use my multi-tool. Won't pick it up. Just glitches in and out at warp speed, so can't lock onto it. Go to holster my MT, doesn't work. It almost feels like my keyboard inputs work 75% of the time. All that aside, I realize my character is hungry and thirsty. Hit alt h to remove my helmet. Doesn't work. Hit alt f to do it that way. Doesn't work. Manually drag it off. Finally works. Can't equip food or drink. Throw food and drink on the ground and then pick it back up, magically works. It all seems to be server related. The lag and unresponsiveness most of the time, is frustrating. Not to mention that pledge items bought with real money are lost upon death. That seems like a ludicrous oversight. People thatpay for things with real money, expect access to those things, no matter what. I still love this game. There's a ton to love. Just make it stable for everyone, please.

But time will tell if that was a good decision or not...

I do hope they don't go back on master modes. we've spent years waiting for them to naturally slow combat speeds down and it didn't work.

@@SpaceTomato speeds have gone down but I don't feel it solved anything. * Jousting is still the most used PVP fight style. * Every pvp'r has a cannons loadout and shoots from about 1km of distance, so fights are not closer * NPC's still ram you every chance they get. And some personal issues * I really dislike the new boost system * It feels like your always flying it atmosphere even when in space. * the artificial limiters are annoying (for example when you are pitching up, the target moves to the side, your pitch slows down because you use yaw... ) * the 35G magic space break when you switch from nav to scm feels really arcady. * a lot of ships have bad tunings, fly awful and feel the same, and when there is really little wiggle room I don't know if you will feel a lot of difference between ships in the same category. For me personally MM has broken way more than it fixed. I really think that if they iterated over the old model and tuned that in, gradually improved some of the mechanics, it it would be an overall better experience. And I honestly think its less work to get the 3.22 model in good shape then get MM in a good shape thats again fun to fly and to learn. But time will tell if they can fix MM, or they leave it like it is and we get a 4th flight model by 2027 :) Its my own personal take, and if someone likes the current model, good! go fly in the verse and have fun!

Well, let's look at it this way. There were 7 ships in the 12-month ship preview at CitCon. With 7/12 months already passed, they've only released the MPUV tractor (because it's small) and the Retaliator gold pass (because it already existed). The Polaris, Legionnaire, Mirai Heavy Fighter, Zeus, and Apollo are nowhere to be seen. Not looking so great after the first of two major ship sales for the year having already passed without any substantial releases. The fact they're focusing on the Zeus exploration first without exploration gameplay being a thing yet truly displays how little they prioritize the wants of the backers.

It's literally not. I just got in game to check it out last night. Pulled out my 890. Gangway didn't extend. Had to EVA 2.2k to get on board. Still had to request takeoff even though the gangway wasn't attached. Once I was "cleared for takeoff" (you don't takeoff from a gangway in space) my ship was unresponsive and immediately spinning out of control. After about 5 seconds it threatened me for blocking a landing zone, then impounded my ship leaving me floating in space. I then had to EVA 2.2k back to the station, pay a fine, get my ship back, call it again. This time the gangway extended but when I crossed over I was in EVA and could clip through walls. Sat in the pilot seat and instantly everything disappeared. The ship, Port Tressler, everything. I was just teleported somewhere out into space way above MicroTech just floating there. At that point I said yep, still unplayable after 20 years and quit. This game is HOT FUCKING GARBAGE. I'm sorry did I say game? It's not a game. I don't know what this thing is.

What we need imo are determined roles. In FPS it would be f.e. a healer, a gunner, a grenadier and a heavy. And no, it can be done while keeping up the "realism". F.e.: All roles could need equipment that, if equiped, block other roles equipment (due to space and or weight). In addition, you can also have a realistic skill system, like the developer already discussed at some point. That would give the FPS a tactic component and a reason to teamplay. To be honest, its the absolute basic of FPS-gameplay with a very good reason. Same goes with shiproles. If the only role that makes a real difference is the pilot, multicrewing is meaningless. They are already about to implement a rather deep mechnic-role, wich is great! But the piloting for bigger ships could also be split into powerdistribution and weaponsystemcontrols. That beeing said, giant ships for 20 people upwards need to justify the amount of people that can board by giving them meaning. Different weaponplatforms should need a weaponplatformcontroller that controls a specific cluster of systems only. A huge powercore should need its own, different, mechanic gameplay that if handled by more people would not only still provide fun gameplay but also stacking the benefits of the extra hands, aso. Unless such things are implemented, multicrewing will be niche. And for most rather bland and boring. It would also tip the balance in favor to the bigger ships piloted solo. I know, that all of the mentioned are rather basic gameplayideas. But thats exactly why I am worried - just why didnt we have heard of a flashed out concept yet? Its like CIG is driving in complete darkness, making descisions rather on a whim. Granted, for a very long time that rooted in them not beeing able to know how long they could finance development. But that should be over for a couple of years already now. And at least some different concepts should always have been available.

The Tiny little Momentum they got during Citizen Con is gone, and it only gets worse from here. With the upcoming changes they basically kill the Cargo gameloop by adding a massive time gate to the loading Process. No one Wants to wait for hours until the Cargo is loaded and unloaded, at the current state its 5 Hours wait time to load and 5 hours to unload for the big Cargo Ship. Thats not Gameplay, thats a time sink. Nothing more, nothing less.

I’ve been playing star citizen since the 3.1 patch. So since 2018?? 6 years have gone by and I’m woefully disappointed with the current state of the game. I jump in to test each patch, and don’t think I’ve had a smooth experience since 3.17 - and that’s mainly coz it was out for so long that they were able to put some somewhat-decent fixes in place. But it’s constantly felt like one step forward, two steps back. Every patch there is game breaking bugs that destroy any enjoyment I get from the game. Until they can deal with game breaking bugs, horrendous lag and desynch, and actually enjoyable gameplay that isn’t the most basic (unchanged in 6 years) and boring loop - I’m just not getting interested in this game.

My prediction SQ42 Xmas 2025 launch and SC1.0 at the same time with fully functioning server meshing, exploration, hacking, org management/permissions, base building, crafting all in atleast a tier1 state (not tier0), engineering, boarding/docking, etc, etc, etc

The only goals they meet are revenue goals. There are basic functionality like UI, inventory, gold standard ships, and server performance to name a few… it boggles my mind how little respect there is for the player base, because there is no other explanation for the state of the game as it is.

They can't optimize shit yet. They have to finalize certain builds and then work on optimization. I understand why it's frustrating but it's even more frustrating when people complain about things they don't understand.

@@Illfury its you that doesnt understand. i never mentioned optimization. the ui design and functionality is crap, floating windows that you at times cant even activate because you cant "reach", when you do activate there is no tactile sound that lets you know youve activated the button so most ppl just keep spamming F. same with the inventory menus, they are clunky and poorly designed. i could go on and on... these are things that should have been completed years ago.

what if Star citzien isn't a Game it's a VR logistics solution for VR tourists who play a version of star citzien that is geared to social interactions and works party network putting you in awesome AI NPV suit hotels themeparks and fun online shopping store. VR tourism will have to charter flights from Star citzien players to take them from theme park world to themepark world and 3rd party studios can buy star systems or single moons/planets to create A VR games or even console games why not branch out and then star citzien pilots can be gameplay looped in to other titles idk the idea SC is a platform planets are a videogame on the platform and then just make the project one huge "simulated galaxy"

They can’t even get us unique item recovery info until cit con. After 10 years + and $700M + you can’t even add simple features to the game something is wrong.

How is it getting better? AI still bugs out all the time or standing on chairs even in fresh, low pop servers, missions bugging out, ships randomly exploding because you dropped a bottle of water inside or for no reason at all, players glitching through floors or planet surfaces at random, items randomly despawning, ... I get it, you make money with SC content and you need to keep the hype up, but being more honest about the games state would be ... well, more honest.

So because stability sucks certain things are still broken it hasn't improved in other places? How is it getting better: DLSS/FSR Vulkan API An actual Ammo display in FPS lol Minimaps A functional Starmap Larger ground locations that aren't a 2017 asset made for a demo Server meshing has been tested by players FPS AI is responsive and active on good servers The Economy is being rebalanced The flight model has been unified Physicalized Cargo Usable Storage Containers Easier respawn options for players Cargo Hauling Missions How is it still bad: Ship sales Stability sucks No release date in sight Servers are overloaded I talked about all of these negatives in the video, and less than half of the positives. So what are you on about? I stated in the video itself that the game is still trash to play, that players should stay away, that it's buggy and glitchy. AND STILL clowns like you come in the comment section saying "ahhhh gotta be more honest". Dude I'm telling people NOT TO PLAY THE GAME. Do you have ears?

somebody liked so I had to update. recently RSI offer free try and I tried it. honestly it is not that bad. I can start the game, 1.5 days doing tutorial I can complete the tutorial without major crash, but the framerate is still low and there are wipes so I will keep following. I guess games nowadays do need exceptional amount of investment. They should have set their fundraising target higher initially.
@theoldlore2 ай бұрын
These game loops ingame currently will be fine as long as base building actually arrives. If we can carve out a slice of our own on planets or moons, then working for doosh makes buying ground vehicles & starships feel more important, as we save for the home base. For orgs, a solid base is critical. Even small medic orgs could benefit from a base. This will be a great MMORP game, good enough to not worry about RP bc it’s so unforgiving. I really do compare this game to Altis Life from Arma 3, and that’s a very good thing. It’s actually coming together well.

@@festersmith8352 The vast majority of the money CIG raised (ship sales) was tied very explicitly to SC, not SQ42. True, backers understood that some of their money would be going to SQ42; that was never in question. But for more than a decade now, the vast majority of developer time has gone to the single-player game, starving the PU of needed work on core tech, which turned out to be more complicated than expected. This is akin to what some dodgy contractors will do in housing construction and renovation: use money collected from a new client to finish work for an old client. It works as long as there is a new client. But if there are unexpected delays or a string of bad reviews from old clients, the contractor can find himself running out of new clients--and deep in the hole with no way out.

Yeah, for me personally, I played the game fairly deeply in 2021 around the Siege Event where it felt like gameplay was getting pushed more frequently and that game was KIND of stable. Albeit still kinda shit. I'd backed in 2018 but the game was fucking unplayable and my computer barely ran it. I tried again when I beef'd up my computer a few years later. I stopped playing well before 3.18 chubbed and haven't really felt the need to come back, nothing on offer foundationally changes the experience in a meaningful way. Lots of QoL new UI and better functionality and complexity but these things don't really much matter when the game is still 90% timesinks. Im personally going to come back for Pyro only for the bare minimum purpose of flying around and taking pictures...will the game be WORTH playing? Idk. I think personal hangars (and them being able to be moved) with vehicle spawning will be huge for reducing timesinks. Quantum Hopping is the next key feature for me, with MM making us slower than ever I think this feature is now more or less necessary. If they can introduce Exploration T0 with scanning for random events in space nearby? Even better. I don't PERSONALLY care about Reputation until launch, because like aUEC and everything else, it's partly meaningless unless Reputation doesn't get wiped at all until launch. Then I might care but I don't personally think Progression is the issue the game has. I think the game just isn't actually fun right now. It's 90% timesinks, redoing, losing progress, getting mission progress wiped randomly, randomly dieing, etc. Not to mention it takes them 2 years to come out with 1 more meaningful location to do nothing but a kill mission. Every new location is a "revolution" that changes almost nothing, comes in half done, and gets abandoned. If Pyro has all the same issues I don't see why anyone should play. For me the "Bare minimum to play again seriously": 0) Master modes even remotely fucking finished. Sorry this is a fucking slap job, half the ships have copy pasted ships. My "main ship" that I use to get around which is the 400i just got its stats from the Corsair copy and pasted...it's 100% a dogshit game experience right now. Mastermodes doesn't have any of the foundational systems that it was intended to be included with: engineering and parts targeting, maelstrom and armor to help ships that are armor'd be less dependant on shields, and ridiculous gun balancing...not to mention atmo flight experience like control surfaces and true VTOL. 1) More than just Pyro, like sorry it's not that compelling of a system....a place full of shitty nutjob factions for edgelords and a pvp contestable area where the quest design has to allow for someone randomly ganking you at all times. Hopefully Nyx is a big push for better PvE content. I also miss Levski and it's my fav location in the game still. Looks like a place I'd take pictures but why waste time in a system that has no interesting factions, no interesting POIs like towns, and is actively hostile all the time. Idk sounds like a nightmare, not a fun time. Maybe if they add exploration gameplay where I can be rewarded for being at the fringes...but Im not questing in a place where you are constantly under attack. 2) Personal Hangars but everywhere, we need more than just 1 home location and the home location should be moveable. Something they said won't happen on first iteration...meh. Im not landing on fucking Loreville every time I want to get access to my main inventory, sorry. 3) Quantum Hopping + Random events. Like if the game is going to be 90% timesinks have something happen sometimes as well as cut them down. I don't care if it's Quanta or just an RNG event generator like NMS...just put something there that I can run into during Quantum (not just being pirated) and something that might pop up in my scanner that isn't just a mineable rock or salvage ship which requires me to be in an entirely different ship to even benefit from. 4) The Railen....I want it so bad. 5) Better and more variety in location design for quests. Stations are boring (legit 4 rooms on shuffle). UGF is 1 building copy-pasted with no meaningful variety. Pyro colonialism outposts (during the demo) was like 4 buildings with 2 overlay options copy and pasted over and over....same problem Derelicts had and I imagine you'll even see repeat buildings next to each other just like Derelicts where immersion gets fucking pummeled by rushed level design for a marketing window. Colonialism building set is going to need at least like 12 main buildings and 20 or so sub-buildings/addons with lots of fake buildings to break up landing zone looks or it's going to get old on mission number 4 when I see that yes...I'm in that building with the garage with an Ursa in it again which is next to that building with the windows and the plants again. 6) Mission progress not getting scrubbed constantly. If I can log in and keep working on a mission I had previously? You've got a customer who might play your game.
