''Plans''

The key word here.

We are down from the promised 100 star systems.

Currently in the past decade, the backers got only a single star system and still only have access to that single highly dysfunctional system.

Plans mean nothing.
Everybody has plans.
Actions speak louder than words.

They have consistently failed in the action area.

Don't be fooled by cinematic videos backed with music/
This is their seasonal sales tactic for the past decade.

I laugh every time people like you bring up the "100 star systems" because it tells me you don't know a thing.

When they promised "100 star systems" each planet was literally a loading screen and one small area. That's what they explicitly promised. No planetary surface. No biomes. No landing your ship or taking off besides a cutscene. Easy to do 100 star systems like that.

That promise meant nothing when they switched to each planet being fully rendered, seamless, and explorable, with hundreds of locations.

And yet, haters keep bringing up these fabled "100 star systems" like it's any sort of "gotcha" that actually makes sense. It isn't.

Anyone who actually cares for this game knows that 5 star systems with the level of detail we have now are better than 100 (or 1000, or 10000) with the lack of detail that was promised. It's undeniably more content by several orders of magnitude.

Quality is better than quantity, but please, do keep crying. 😂

''That promise meant nothing''

That's the only accurate thing you said.

You missed the entire point btw

Abriael190d ago (Edited 190d ago )

Can't miss a point that you never had.

If someone promises 100 pictures of a car but delivers 5 actual working cars, only people lacking any sort of logical thinking would believe the 100 pictures were better.

Of course, I should say "pretend" to believe, because we all know that people making that argument never actually cared and they're just faking interest in the topic for the sole purpose of trolling and bashing this game and its developers.

In the meanwhile, saying "they have consistently failed in the action area" shows absolute blindness to reality. What Star Citizen has, right now, playable, is something no other game or developer ever achieved and won't achieve for the foreseeable future. How's that for action?

What game? The alpha demo that crashes?

rippermcrip189d ago

How much money have you dumped into this game? Have you been paid by the piblisher by any means?

Sircolby45189d ago

@Abriael You're trying to argue with a bunch of talking parrots that know nothing about the game. It's futile lol.

gigoran8189d ago

ahuh, but they did promise 100 star systems. I fail to see your complaint

fr0sty189d ago

Quality is better than quantity, and here we are over a decade later and they have released neither.

You bring up the 100 systems, yet don't even mention the fact that even one system even in the current alpha has more content that all those initially promised systems combined. This blind hate makes you no better than blind fanboys who will defend anything a company does. You're just a clown who sits on the opposite end of the extreme. Both equally worthless.

''Content?''

Denial is definitely a river in SC.

I've backed this game for most of the past decade.

where is this content you speak of?

Giodel188d ago

A few weeks back, I bothered to install it and see what had changed since then. Guess what? I had a bug I had five (5) years ago: I was stuck in the spawn point bed, unable to proceed! The only solution is to wait for server reset to be able to move, and after so many years of development, a simple thing like this is not yet fixed!

vTuro24188d ago

Denial also seems to be a river in your head.

Valkyrye189d ago

Scam Citizen, these guys should be in prison.

At the slow rate of progress this is going, we’re more likely to have real spacecrafts before the game is released.

Flewid63823d ago

I finally played this game late last year for free. If this is everything they've done after $750M+ dollars, then it is without a doubt the greatest scam ever conceived in the history of video games.

anast23d ago (Edited 23d ago )

People are happy with it. They are enjoying what they are getting.

Flewid63820d ago (Edited 20d ago )

People like mega church pastors and thats a scam too.

I never said people can't enjoy it. I'm simply saying that it's a scam.

Knightofelemia23d ago

How people are still feeding this blackhole simulator just shows how fools are easy to part way with their money.

Flewid63820d ago

Some people have low standards, its that simple.

anast23d ago

I'm jumping in after it hits a billion.
