It turns out Squadron 42 is NOT vaporwave. Nice!
Nope. Nothing means anything until it releases. They had an hour of gameplay footage over 5 years ago. The only line these fucks are holding is the bottom line while they milk their players for hundreds of dollars whenever they release a fancy ship.
It turns out Squadron 42 is NOT vaporwave.
that is a very bold statement. I would wait until release before I make any conclusions.
I must admit that the first seconds of the trailer are looking beautiful but the gameplay then suffers from the same issues (strange controls and a horrendous framerate) of the base game.
After all this time and for a singleplayergame without any server issues, this is quite alarming.
Yeah in theory this sounds awesome. But given the shoddy state of the multiplayer alpha, I wonder how/when this will release.
Still, if they actually bring this out in a year or so, I would definitely check it out (given 1-2 years for bugfixes, learning from CP2077).
It’s an absolute joke that fans of SC say ‘when you get a clear server it runs perfect’, because it doesn’t. I’ve been in a brand new, freshly populating, rebooted server. The game runs like ass, the bugs are still everywhere. it’s just a badly made game and the design ethos is “we added more time wasting for realism!” (when they’re pretending not to just be ship salesmen)
Also, haven’t they STILL not decided on the final flight model for the game?

oh, so there is still hope
No comments until it’s released. I just hope it doesn’t take more than a year.
Spoiler: it will
I ain’t falling for it again, I will believe it once it’s actually out and playable, until then they can fuck off.
Bought the game after following it for a while and thinking to myself there’s no way it doesn’t release later this year.
That happened in 2014.
Lol.
I once dug into old reddit threads and the cope is always the same. “They’ve made so much progress it’ll be done in a year or two tops!” over and over since the early '10s
I wonder if anyone’s made a compilation.
It’s obviously not vaporwave, but it’s clearly vaporware.
Says their game is feature complete then starts talking about new features they’re adding and improving. Not sure these guys know what feature complete means.
Did they get Gillian Anderson for this fucking game?! lol
Yeah but I think they did it back in 2013. No clue whether the contract is still valid or it’s all old capture.
Answer the call 2016!
I’ll believe it when I see it.
Alienate a shitload of gamers in favour of whales and shovel cute trailers. RSI is a joke. People that keep telling others to install and try it are the same people that bought RAGE and thought it was a full game.
This looks excellent and I can’t wait to see more.
The only thing we have is that they claim it’s “feature complete” which could mean anything based on how they use language in regards to their progress.
For all we know they mean all of the mechanics are done but the campaign and most missions still need created. It could still be years away from release.
SC has been almost 7 years overdue even based on the most distant projections for launch and it keeps just puttering down the road for as long as people keep buying ships I guess. The poster child of what companies will do when people keep giving them money for the pleasure.
They’ve turned game development into a live service business model instead of just making a product and selling it.
The trailer was beautiful. But I don’t believe shit until I see and play it myself.
Probably in 5 years.
