3.3 (late) Brings Nothing New to Development

So, decided to check out what this LATE 3.3 patch has to offer when it gets released (not released yet).
Nothing much at all.
One good thing, FPS has increased. But they didn't even bother to implement OCS server-side, just client-side.
Planets got pushed out (6 months again?) due to half-implemented OCS.
Chat doesn't work. Chat.
Elevators don't work.
Ship doors don't work.
New truck stop is new empty.
Crash crash crash crash.
Basically, you'll experience the exact problems from 6+ months ago, but now with higher frames per second!
FOIP is garbage after 4 minutes. FOIP is not fully working or implemented. You can't talk to people next to you or anything like that. How this was a priority, I will never know. So, there is no point to FOIP at all, but it's there! Big deal, FOIP in SC is nothing new other than it's broken, which also isn't new.
The forums over there is a No-Go zone. People are asking legit questions only to be attacked by White-Knights. Which by the way, the "fans" are beginning to be enough of a reason to just move on from this game. They are really applauding a car wreck as it's happening. They are on guard duty, lording over the SC Forums as if they were mods. It's funny and sad.
The mental gymnastics when excusing the goalposts being moved is astounding. I would literally be out of business if I ran things like CIG and no amount of my fans could save me. I get paid up front. If I didn't deliver on time and completed/working assets as agreed to, I would be taken to court, lose (rightfully), and be bankrupt.
Chris Roberts may have been a good developer at some point in his life, but he is a shit CEO.
This company, this game, and these fans need to wake up.

After watching that, tell me if this guy deserves your time and money.

He sells all this stuff because he BELIEVES! And he can pass that on. However there's a great Feynman quote "The first principle is that you must not fool yourself and you are the easiest person to fool."
Chris Roberts made the starships run on time!!
If you are holding out for the perfect game, the only game you play will be the waiting one.
Still, even Roberts can't totally sabotage 500 folks worth of effort. Especially when he has to practice for another self-important video.

The guy doesn't know why his son doesn't like him even though he put a large sum of the kids inheritance in a business that's losing over five thousand dollars a month, priceless.

They can only have 50 people on the server. So where is the MMO part? They just came out with another ship. Carries 20 people and what 3 crew? Half the server on one ship. You don't think this is odd for a MMORPG? You can still like the flight demo and answer honestly, it's a safe place here.
You got it wrong. You're taking it personally. Nobody here is against actual innovative games. They are against $200M, 8 years, and nothing to show for it. Not a single thing
Not even trying anymore
Well haters gonna hate I guess...
Gamers gonna play and have fun!
Tbh the community gets better and better as haters scramble lol
Now that's out of the way.
Care to point out the part you disagree with?
Nice video of parking a ship next to another ship. Right? I mean, after you take away the dramatic music, the angles and lighting. It's a video of parking your mount next to other players on their mount.
Am i stupid or something?
It's in the PTU server for a reason.
Then, everything you mentioned is factually wrong or your personal opinion.
- Chat works ( you need to enable it in mobiglass)
- Elevators work
- Ship doors work
- Truck stops are not empty
- Foip works well enough for first pass and people use it.
[mod edit]
None have escaped this fate AFAIK !
Btw, SC is starting to take shape slowly but steadily, I'm even considering joining in at this point...
I was very clear about that. But, that was your defense, not argument.
If I was lying, you wouldn't have to state "B-but 3.3 is not out yet." I think you assume that nobody here follows what is happening in SC. You assume that nobody here has ever beta tested games before.
You are a poor marketing guy. Know your audience, merchant man.
Poor fellows got their heart broken and now they cant let go... Ohhh the pettyness is cringeworthy.
Is it petty of me to not wanting to fall through the fucking world when I step into an elevator?
Is it petty of me to want to open the door to my ship?
Is it petty of me that if I disagree with the need of FOIP at this time, but if it's going into the game, I should, you know, talk to other players near me?
Is it petty of me to look forward to all that BULLSHIT you spammed about 3.3 and 90% of it wasn't even in the patch and pushed out to later this year, despite being late?
That was worth $200M and 8 years, wasn't it?
Also that most of the time it's a waste of time to try to argue with them.
Haters gona hate.
*side note dude was lucky he didn't fall through and die like everyone else does on elevators in this game.
Most of those issues are known and easly fixed by deleting your user folder. That's a must after every patch. When a ship spawns without doors/elevators/guns/seats claiming it fixes it.
Seems you go to the Private Test Universe with the wrong expectations and set of skills.
Again. If it's a polished experience you're after It's probably better to stick to finished and released games.
Oh and if you're picking videos from the bug report thread might want to keep it updated. Usualy the PTU gets daily patches fixing most of those issues.
