> [@Reaver\_Argon](#): > > I understand why youā€™re all that stubborn about Star Citizen. Can only guess none of you is younger than 40+ years old. Oh I am younger than that. I also backed it from the start and Iā€™m one of this guys with the golden ticket because I subscribed to the forum before it was even publicā€¦ ā€¦ that was back in 2011. Iā€™m serious, I just donā€™t even care anymore to check what they are doing. They are 4 years over the original release date and still only have something that looks like a techdemo while openly discussing in their YouTube videos about core gameplay ideas which should maybe have been thought about in 2011 and not in 2018. And where is Squadron 42? Was it already two years ago when the release was like only two months away and then WTH hapened? You canā€™t tell me they are so bad at planing that they can estimate a release date in two months, which means they are probably polishing the completed game, and then suddenly it takes two years moreā€¦ Also no matter how much money they got from crowd funding, how long can they possibly keep this up and burn money with nothing to show? And do they even know how they will finance development after the release IF they release one day? ---

> [@Ima\_Wreckyou](#): > > And do they even know how they will finance development after the release IF they release one day? You certainly have valid points. I think that whole switchign engines mess hurt them a lot more then they intended timewise + some other bad decisions, mainly feature creep, feature creep, followed by more feature creep. As for their plans, they announced they will be sellign credits, limited on monthly per account basis + cosmetics but they will not be selling ships or gear after launch and the game will have no subs. This may of course change, I honestly do not see that as anywhere near enough income without either some ship sales or some sort of an optional sub that gives some kind of decent bonuses. And I still havenā€™t backed them. I will not until I see some systems and mechanics present in the game that will tell me which direction certain aspects of the game are going to be like. they donā€™t have to be complete but at least I have to have a good idea of what they will be like. I have to see if I will even like the game because I have no intention of paying for something I will not enjoy to the point where I wonā€™t play it. So we will see. On the side note, if you were a backer that far back, if I were you Iā€™d download the client and log in just to see what free stuff I can get or what have I been provided, then log back out and uninstall just to hold that stuff just in case I will decide to play later. ---

Engines were very similar as the later one is just an iteration of the previous. More stupid was decision to outsource the FPS part to some other company. It didnt integrate with the rest at all. As for financing model after release its a copy of GTAO. ---
