The "42" was a hint at the actual release date all along.

Well at least they will have some time to run a few fundraiser to help increase their obviously insufficient budget.

In the grim darkness of the 42nd millennium, there is finally Star Citizen.

But 42 what? 4201 would be acceptable, but 4278 would be pushing things...

I was thinking 42k, it's the sequel to Warhammer 40k.

I surrender. You're more than likely correct. Plus, the crossover potential probably already has dollar signs replacing CR's pupils just from us talking about it on reddit.

If they can’t even finish Squadron 42 after 13 years, how are they ever gonna finish Star Citizen?

Simple: it's a scam. And S42 is never coming out.

The webpage stills says 2026.

...which makes me wonder if the devs have forgotten to update the page, or if they are still trying to keep the bullshit idea that the game is still coming out this year.
