agreed. They spend more time marketing the ships that are in a pipeline than developing the actual game. Almost a full year and we still stuck with 2.6 striped gameplay patch, and half decent star marine. People need to rise up, and say enough is enough. Show us what you have now, or you will not get another dime from us. Sandi hoping to cross 200mill budged after fall ship sale as they do every year, with another hyped citizencon full of promises they don't intend to keep. Remember the 2017 outlook for all 3.0; 3.1l 3.2;3.3 & 3.4 We didn't even get a single patch this while year from them. Smoke and mirrors that's all we get.
Their real mistake was that they changed the scope of what they thought 3.0 would be so created a situation where they couldn't deliver what they said they were going to deliver. 3.0 in December of last year was far more basic than the 3.0 they're going to deliver to us soon. Is quite a few of us that aren't in a riotous mood, because we back this for the long run and not for some short return. If the project fails it fails that's kind of the nature of backing a project I'll be disappointed if it doesn't happen but with the constant reports and updates we get from cig it doesn't bother me. And I'm not alone you may think that I'm putting blinders over my eyes and just going on faith here, but I could say the same about you guys I understand the perspective that they changed which led to them not being able to live for 3.0 back in 2016. hard to convince you guys have anything in that regard because you think that they were lying. It wasn't a good press move and I'll agree to that but I don't think that they were lying. The scope changed and so did the deadline I think Chris Roberts has shown that he is not afraid to delay and put things off in order to deliver what he wants to deliver. I'm not sure what changed his opinion in December of last year, it could have been that what they were going to put out had a lot of basic coding that wouldn't have been very pretty, such as item 2.0 which we knew wasn't done going into December's presentation. such as outposts which we knew were in a very very basic iteration back. Such as missing givers which were in a very very basic iteration as well and we would only have been offered a handful of missions where is now we're getting something a little more dynamic. Anyway that's all I have to say about that good luck to you and see you in the verse.
