  Fun fact: If you take the year, add two, you’ll get the current planned release date for sq42

  Personally, I don’t think they should be aiming for 100 anymore, even if it was promised. That number was for the original pitch and was arbitrarily high since it was for a much shallower and easier to create game

    I’d gladly take a single functioning system rather than wait another 12 years of my life for this Kickstarter project to deliver.

    Today they announced that it was cut down to 5 and they will slowly work their way back up to 100 after launch (whenever that is)

      It was a good decision. It was also smart of them to review the initial 100 planet goal to add some much needed context

    The original pitch also had dedicated servers and those are gone, sadly.

      How are they gone? The current servers are hosted by CIG, there’s no p2p or host server. How would that even work for an MMO?

        dedicated servers == player-hosted servers, usually
