SaltEMike Reacts to 10 Years of Waiting for Star Citizen | Farrister

I followed Star Citizen's development for 8 years before actually buying the game and starting to play.
I'm still optimistic about this game, but I don't play that much.

I decided to make my own videos, which has improved my gameplay experience because I'm trying out things I wasn't really interested in before and realizing just how detailed this game already is.

we ca look forward to the new GTA .

In 2018 I remember legitimately thinking the game would be out by 2022... crazy shit man... they really need to kick it into high gear and actually deliver otherwise this project is going to fail. It's amazing that its still going tbh with how little progress has been made. It's possible the loss of interest in the community will light a fire under their asses, but if for whatever reason they actually have too much overhead costs and people stop buying ships... I think its over...

Dang farrister’s honesty is very instructive

i started playing back in 2015....its still trash and buggy and NOTHING works CORRECTLY. PYRO is delayed AGAIN

I have never seen a game in all my life that has generated SO MUCH DISAPPOINTMENT. Well done, CGI!

As new player I don’t understand the comments where they say there is no game. I can mine, do bounties, pvp, trade, mercenary missions, delivery, multi-crew. I’m not sure what else people are looking for in. Sandbox game. Multi-crewing with discord folk are some of the best times I had in a game.

“Everything has a beginning and an end, Neo”.

Pyrite Vulture is better :P

wow, I just checked my hanger, I first backed on 03 Aug 2014. I don't recall ever paying extra for Arena Commander?

2.6 flight model is still the best dog fights i had to this day. Chris roberts killed the fun because he want people to see the other ship when fighting. Like if you have time for that when dog fighting anyways...

Yeah, I watched that video. Man talks about 2014 while showing entire footage from 2022 and saying "I'm trying to be objective and honest as always" ))) This is what I was talking about when said "watching same clips at every channel is unbearable" in the comment you've deleted for no reason.

What waiting?!?! The only "waiting" is for the "full release" label. Other than that, it's fully playable and is pretty damned awesome in it's own right. I've been playing Star Citizen for over 2000 hours!! I began my journey in 2013 and I remember when the ONLY interaction of the game was a hangar with your ship in it. That's it!! How far it's come since those days. CIG is literally inventing the tech to actually run the game. That does seem to take a bit of time and resources. The way I view the game is it's an ever evolving world that will continue to improve and move forward. Why in the hell does everyone bash the hell out of the most technically advanced gaming idea to date. They ARE producing it!! The ARE consistently working and adding to it!! Just play it and enjoy the journey. One can bitch about how "buggy" it is, or how it's "not finished yet" all they want, OR they can come and enjoy what is there. I have yet to find a single game, finished or not, that doesn't have some level of either "buggyness", or "this could be done better", or some other shortcoming. So what if the next patch is delayed. I, personally, WANT them to delay it if it's not working well enough for release. Let them take all the time they need to get this shit right. I can't even explain how far the game has come in the last year!! Stop worrying about the label of where the game is in it's development and just play!!

I absolutely would not play at all were it not for making content.

I stream on Rumble and I get people that come in angry at me that I am having fun. They are just haters and get enraged that I enjoy Star Citizen.

ZzzzZzzzzZZz


Condensed version: Hurry up and make the game because we've discussed this 100000 times.

I'm glad to see you finally gave EVE a chance. EVE Online has amazing systems and tools for the users that I wish we could get in SC, you can see why so many people wanted EVE 2.0.

I'm enjoying what I have... a buggy 3.24 unable to call up any of my $3000 worth of ships because the elevator mechanics are bugged to shit.
Riiiiiiiiight......

Honestly, my investment in Star Citizen is to see just what is possible in gaming. The amount of immersion and different styles of gameplay is what gets me. Even if it takes another 10 years, if the final shipped product can cover 80% of what they promised it'll pave a new standard. I'm kind of tired of the same generic types of games coming out that don't build upon what they already have.

now all cargo is messed up . can't even buy it .

Yeah, the mimimimimimimimimi won out and they relented and they stated the Javelin would come fully equipped. Yeah, so much for integrity.

The Morrow tour that was "sooooo close to being ready" then not talked about for years and then came out as a buggy piece of -beep-, that tour?

cant believe they started selling the Idris and Jav 10 years ago, and still not in game...Engineering mentioned in 2015, still not in game....my god, if people knew this before buying in today, who would?! That means crap they talk about now, may be 10 more years out...

What everyone doesn't understand: Star Citizen is an insanely beautiful space sim showcase, that simply will never be finished. Enjoy what it is now and forget about anything else. If you can't, don't play, just not worth your time.

Both Star Citizen and stable fusion power will always be 10 years away.

No depth or connection between assassination, bounty hunting, mercenary, pirate, xeno hunting, infiltration, exobiology, exploring, mining, salvaging, smuggling, trading, courier, passenger carrier, search and rescue....there's already a game out there that does these and no progress resets! Keep coping with the server meshing! Mike and Morphologis are right.

i am total burn out in starcitizen i feel i have wested my money on a lie

What has broke me with the latest update 3.24
I cant access my inventory by pressing 'I'. I have to go to a console and rotate till I can see my character. I cant even transfer from location to ship.
Its's a known bug (by CGI, Not fixed) but for me it just makes the game un playable. So I'll sit having new ships to enjoy, and can't. So I'll go play something else. I cant even transfer things from home to ship because I cant see the inventory. No fun. When they fix it I'll be back.

Yeah, more and more and more people are realizing that it's all a pipe dream.

I'm still having fun. I just follow my nose and see what adventures occur ... Only been playing for three years though

Turn off coupled mode and you have six degrees of movement. Why does everyone forget that

"It desalinates me" lol

I dont seem to understand whats so hard to understand man i mean seriously look at the tech we had 10 years ago, we are looking at what is supposed to be the best space game of all time and people want them to release something thats not fully visioned yet? So what if it takes 10 years look how long suicide squad was in development and read how that turned out

Man I miss P.O. and watching people land all day while space walking outside.

It's not how long you wait. It's when it finally arrives.

No, no, CR said he wanted ww2 in space. The backers said they want 6dof.

Case in point, I watch a Farrister video and try to figure out how he got that camera angle, how did he compose that shot, etc. I watch other creators and watch their transitions, their style, delivery and see if there's anything I can incorporate. That's the creator game inside the game.
Edit: Thanks for the shoutout!

@mike it was acquaintances from a different mmo that pulled me back into this game I think my first log in /download was in 2012 I have spent nothing on the game up to this point, I could not afford to. I have a sponsored rsi Aurora mr that i my base ship all others are in game purchases.

having dogfights at 300-1000m is much more enjoyable than jousting matches where an enemy will be 3-4km away and then rocket past you at top speed hitting the nose of your ship a few times before turning around and doing it again.

or back when if the ship you were fighting was less capable of tanking the damage vs putting out damage the enemy player would just intentionally kamikaze your ship. definitely not a fun or good flight model in my opinion

peak of my hype was seamless landing on planets

I don't generally like to trash-talk other content creators, but I think the biggest problem with BoredGamer is that he still tends to imagine and speculate and extrapolate a lot; far more than he should at this stage.

To be clear to chat, no, the Bengal was never sold: Much like the Iowa-class battleships of modern day, the Bengals are "gold-plater" super-carriers and only 3 exist in the setting.

I still remember we were joking around in 2018 like: Im sure it will be done 2024 right? Right?

As a community we trauma bond

"it desalinates me..." best quote ever from someone who has SaltE as a part of there channel.
