Shocking exactly 4 people on the planet, Squadron 42 might not make it's just-recently-confirmed-absolutely-rock-solid 2026 release date. 😂
Although I will say that at this point even laughing about it becomes difficult. It's been so many years, every joke has been made and every laugh has been had.
The big problem is how to make it fun for those who are not spave nerds. They are making a game for hundreds of thousands of players with a budget of a game for tens of millions. They are getting funded for a feline-shaped bag, once it’s out chances are it’ll be so aggressive, mangy and moody no one will want to play with it. Aiming at a reticle projecting where the enemy will be when the shots land for 30 hours with occassional explanations by hollywood b-listers is not everyone’s cup of space tea.
Yeah… all I wanted was Freelancer 2.
Then I realized, Microsoft had to step in, get rid of Roberts so Freelancer could see the light of day. And it dawned on me, we’re not seeing Freelancer 2 from this guy.
No Man’s Sky is the modern closest to that Star Citizen wants to be.
We will probably be back at the moon before this is release.
Will probably have an actual galactic empire before this game releases. Assuming they never does release because I’m not convinced that the guy isn’t totally in on the idea that it’s a scam.
I’m fine with this. They took so long already, might as well give them as much time as they need to finish the job.
I’m more interested in the PU, anyways.
You are a kind soul. Your grand grand grand kids (assuming you have them) will be very greatful for your sacrifice.
You fit in.
Sunken cost fallacy in action.
I really hope you break away from this some day, SC doesn’t deserve your money dedication.
You fit in.

The game itself is probably never going to make it. Millions upon millions dumped into that grift and it’s still not a legit game.
Fools and their money I suppose.
