Thread title is misleading. They never said that they tougth that PS4 was a lesser plattaform, just that plattaforms that demand dumbed down versions are. The original title make more sense.


True, but he was responding to rumors about his game coming to the PS4.

He just don't want to bend over arbitrary regulation from plattaform holders, and thats ok. See: what Star citzen is trying to prove is that PC game can still be great and profitable, something that a lot of publishers are negleting now days.

However, I'm more worried about what this studio can actually accomplish, since they managed to get to the 48 mil mark recently, but still no date on the final release? Can this turn out be the shemmue of this generation?

His arguments, however, don't are that convincing. "We will NOT pass on features and technology just because they will only run on some hardware configurations." well, if you release a game that only runs well with the lastest graphic card, cpu on the market, your software will end up running only in some hardware configuration.

What this game is proving is that the "Oh so smart and money savvy PC Masterrace" can be just as dumb with their money as every other "Console Peasant" out there. I mean just look at the prices in that store.

Up to $275 for a single ship?? In an unreleased game?? How can PC gamers even be proud of this whole project?

To be fair, there are also ships available at $30 with the full game, and each ship will be able to be gotten in-game through single-player.

Xbox One - PS4 - Wii U - PC

Bang



These kinds of statements are never smart. It is going to bite him in ass if he end up developing for the PS4/XONE.

Ok, so buying the ships lets you use them in a beta right now or how does this work?



Lol, changed the title from something positive to fanboy baiting. Good Job.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

1. Console gamers dont want this game.
2. Graphics dont mean a good game.

It seems PC only gamers / developers are really jealous. They use consoles as "benchmark" for GPU power. They use consoles as a measuring point. Lol. Console are like Call of Duty from "PC gamers point of view". They dont like it. Yet it sells a ton.


This is why PC gaming will always be in the shadows. When you put horse power as the #1 priority, you're screwing yourself and limited your appeal. 



of course its a lesser platform when it comes to power (compared to mega pc's). just remember how much PS4 costs and a titan GPU costs.



Hahahahaha...... lets see where this company is in a few years time. They obviously are off to a great start.
