The RSI Galaxy is a great ship (currently ~$300) and the loaner is an Anvil Carrack which is (currently $600). The Carrack is one of the biggest and best ships for all around activity, but no pilot guns.
Origin 890 Jump ($900) for luxury and is the biggest in-game ship you can buy.
Hammerhead ($700) is the largest combat/gun ship currently, with the Polaris coming out soon.
Reclaimer ($400) is the largest industrial salvage ship.
Absolutely can’t wait until my Galaxy is flyable, still hoping for it to be here by the end of the year
Nobody’s mad that didn’t throw money in the pit. It’s just a funny story that never seems to end. Every year they don’t have a finished product, the joke gets funnier.
I don’t have a horse in this race, but it’s the perfect counterpart to companies like EA Games where unfinished games come out because developers had to meet an arbitrary deadline. Star Citizen is right at the other end of the spectrum and you see what happens when there are no deadlines and the product is never finished. I would love to play it, but my backlog is so big that I can afford to be a patient gamer. I have about 35 years until I retire and if version 1.0 is out by then I’ll be happy to take another look.
On the bright side though, they are consistently updating the game. I don’t play, but several of my friends play it all the time, and to them it definitely seems to be worth what they paid.
People are still falling through elevators and delivery missions are still bugged to hell four years after I quit for those reasons, but hey, they have beards now! 😂
“A lot” is an interesting descriptor, especially when comparing loud easily defined groups with quieter more subtle groups.
Its the difference between those animals that puff themselves out to five times their normal size and those that prefer not to be seen at all. Are there a significant portion of the first as compared to the second, just because you see them more blatantly?
It’s not meh, it’s “we’ve almost raised a BILLION dollars by not releasing this game. Oh by the way, there’s no release date yet.”
Those billion dollars come from people buying the game and playing it in its current state.
Lol no it doesn’t. It comes from insanely high priced jpegs of ships, and sometimes the rare in game ship.
perfect example 13 days ago on reddit
With the purchase of any ship (the cheapest ones being $45) you get to play the game and fly the ship(s) you bought in-game.
TLDR it’s a $45 game with microtransactions
Completely ignoring it, are we? Cool cool
…and?
Not like people are paying for the release date. And they did release a product, just not under “version 1.0”.
Seems like people are just mad that a game they don’t like made money.

I have friends that play this game basically all day every day. Doesn’t seem like vaporware to me.
Empty promises maybe, but it would be disingenuous to deny it’s perfectly playable in its current state.

It’s not vaporware, I agree.
It is however, a money scam.

Idk I’ve seen a lot of people getting genuinely upset over this stuff.

Yep, “I’ve seen a lot” does in fact refer to the portion I’ve seen, which is a lot.
