It looks dull as fuck. Flying around empty worlds, wandering around empty space stations.
Visit Finland and go to a supermarket to get the beta experience.

after watching the full hour, i have to say, the gameplay looks clunky as hell in most parts.. |

With my PC (in my signature below) it plays "stable" enough for an Alpha. Average 20 fps and never had a crash so far in the 3.0 during my 10+ hours total playtime. Probably will be much better with a SSD but can't get that right now. Surprisingly even with these 20 FPS it feel like it's higher except when it hiccups.

Total size with the launcher is 38.5 GB for 3.0.
EDIT: Maybe because if the long post, my specs don't show up. Here they are:

Trust me, 4 1080i's in SLI with 128GB RAM, the fastest SSD drive possible, with 4 8600 CPU's running in parallel would make abolutely no difference to this game, because the project leads are inept fools who don't know how to tell Roberts to fuck off and let them build the game properly.

Star Citizen raised more money than every other video game on Kickstarter combined in 2017
By a factor of two, and for the second year in a row
| Quote: | For the second year in a row, the team working on Star Citizen say they’ve raised more money than every other video game on Kickstarter combined. The numbers, which are self-reported and do not include returns, aren’t even close.
Chris Roberts’ collection of spacefaring games raised $34.91 million in 2017, down slightly from $36.11 million in 2016. Meanwhile, successful Kickstarters for video games overall remained relatively flat in 2017, with $17.25 million raised, down from around $17.6 million the year before.
That means the Star Citizen project has raised more than double the amount of every other game project on Kickstarter — more than 700 in all — for two years in a row.
This data is based on information provided to Polygon by both Kickstarter and the teams at Roberts Space Industries (RSI) and Cloud Imperium Games (CIG).
However, the data set is complicated by several significant factors. First, CIG/RSI refused to report how much money they’ve returned to backers. Several significant returns are currently being contested, including one in excess of $25,000. It’s therefore impossible to know how large a proportion of its funding CIG/RSI have been forced to refund.
Additionally, Kickstarter said that of all the money pledged to video game projects in 2016, 85 to 88 percent of it went to successful campaigns. We've gone with the higher numbers for our calculations.
We’ve reached out to CIG/RSI for comment. |

CIG has responded to Crytek lawsuit
| Quote: | Response
"[This complaint] sacrifices legal sufficiency for loud publicity...
[Crytek] conceals the actual Game License Agreement (GLA) from the court and the press...
The GLA eliminates virtually every claim and remedy CryTek seeks; CryTek's admission that Defendants are not even using CryTek's software gets rid of the rest." |
| Quote: | Refutation of CryTek's Claims
- Claim: CIG was only given permission to make "the game" with CryEngine, selling SQ42 standalone is in violation of this.
- Defense: The GLA defines "the game" as both "'Space Citizen' and its related space fighter game 'Squadron 42'", with a passage allowing for name changes (Space Citizen > Star Citizen).
Additionally, this term does not apply to any games made without CryEngine, and CryEngine is no longer used.
- Claim: CIG violated the GLA by switching from CryEngine to Lumberyard, they are only allowed to "exclusively" use CryEngine.
- Defense: The GLA says they are given "exclusive rights to use CryEngine" and the right "to exclusively embed CryEngine in the game". The established legal meaning of this wording is that the right is given only to them (and those subcontracted within the terms), not that they are only allowed to use CryEngine.
- Claim: CIG is no longer displaying CryTek copyright notices in game, in violation of the GLA.
- Defense: This obligation only applies if CIG is using CryEngine, which they are not.
- Claim: Ortwin was employed by CryTek prior to becoming CIG's attorney and co-founder so he had a conflict of interest when negotiating the contract.
- Defense: Ortwin received a signed waiver from CryTek dismissing any conflict of interest.
- Claim: Confidential source code was shown on Bugsmashers and disclosed to FaceWare in violation of the GLA.
- Defense: No defense provided, though FaceWare was after the switch to Lumberyard.
- Claim: CIG was required to provide any bugfixes they developed for CryEngine up until launch.
- Defense: No defense provided. |
| Quote: | Additional Statements
- The GLA prohibits either party from seeking any damages from one another "except for intentional acts or omissions or gross negligent acts".
- CIG, not RSI, is the signatory of the GLA, so CryTek committed a legal blunder by pursuing RSI rather than CIG in a number of claims.
- CIG seeks to have the entire complaint dismissed with prejudice (barring any further related action) on the grounds that none of the complaints are sufficient. |

Seems CryTek fucked up badly. The important claims are rediculous and easily refuted. And CIG doesn't even bother defending the minor claims, like sharing of bugfixes.
There must have been a door there in the wall, when I came in.
Truly gone fishing.

Oh there is a LOT more to this than the rather easy refutes CIG have made. For example, dates were conveniently changed AFTER the actual split between SQ42 and the PU - as I understand, the fact that CryEngine was initially used before any splitting took place is sufficient grounds to uphold that particular claim - regardless what the 'company' was called, or when they say they changed things - there's plenty of archived evidence to confirm real dates.

https://www.pcinvasion.com/crytek-hits-back-star-citizen-legal-case
| Quote: | Defendant’s Motion seeking dismissal and other relief is without merit. Rather, that Motion is a blatant effort to impose delay and burden Crytek as it seels to vindicate its rights under its contract with Defendants and its copyrights.
The facts here are straightforward: Plaintiff Crytek GmbH (“Crytek”) granted Cloud Imperium Games Corp (“CIG”) and Roberts Space Industries Corp (“RSI”) (collectively, “Defendants”) a license to use Crytek’s powerful video game development platform, CryEngine, in the development of Defendant’s video game called “Star Citizen”. Pursuant to that Game License Agreement (the “GLA”), Crytek agreed to provide technical support and know-how to Defendants and licensed CryEngine to Defendants at a discounted rate, in return for certain promises from Defendants.
But after accepting Crytek’s assistance — and after raising record-breaking amounts from video game consumers in a crowdfunding campaign — Defendants began to break their promises to Crytek.
Defendants promised that they would develop Star Citizen with CryEngine, not any other development platform. But Defendants now boast that they have breached that promise, and are promoting a competing development platform.
Defendants promised that they would prominantly display Crytek’s copyright notices and trademarks within Star Citizen and in any marketing materials for Star Citizen. But Defendants have admittedly breached that promise.
Even though Defendants had licensed Crytek’s technology to develop only one game (Star Citizen) they later separated Star Citizen’s feature “Squadron 42” into a standalone game without a license to use Crytek’s technology in two games
Defendants promised to provide Crytek with any improvements or bug fixes that they made to CryEngine while developing Star Citizen. Defendants never made a good faith effort to honor that promise.
Defendants promised that they would maintian the condidentiality of Crytek’s valuable technology, But they published excerpts if Crytek’s source code unilaterally and shared Crytek’s technology with a third-party developer without Crytek’s approval.
Defendants say this action should never have been filed. Indeed, if only they had kept their promises, the action would never have ben filed. But now Crytek seeks to enforce its contractual rights and copyrights. Defendants deny any enforceable obligation to Crytek and move the court to dismiss Crytek’s claim entirely. Defendants’ argument simpy do not withstand scrutiny, and certainly cannot meet the demanding standard required to obtain dismissal of Crytek’s claims as a matter of law. The court should deny Defendants’ Motion and permit Crytek to proceed so that it may vindicate its rights. |

Attempt at fucking over those who backed them early on backfires in spectacular fashion.
The only downside I suppose is those who didn't refund will likely lose the money they put in,and of course, this isn't a criminal matter as Croberts et al will hide behind company names.
The sad legacy of an average man.
