Answer the Call – BoredGamerUK Discusses Star Citizen’s Slow Start to the Year

You must tell me who is this bored and beautifully bald mysterious stranger?! 😂

I find it very frustrating when I watch content creators who obviously arent playing the game much…Mike and Bored (esp Bored) fit this bill often. My sub is prior to both of theirs, so the idea that "We've grown out of the game" is person specific. I still play daily and expect if you're going be a content creator and expect people to find you credible, you have to be playing at an expert level. I find Bored is great at aggregating information but it is obvious is it information from an amalgamation of sources and not from his own experiences.

The accurate translation for this title would be
"Content creators whine for a very longtime that people(developers) dare to have lives outside of constantly updating a game."
Seriously, for everyone involved start covering additional games or something. The whining for new content constantly is getting old.

Cig still hasnt added a zero to ballistics, keeping them unusable. Cant wait for the shitty direction they are taking combat.

Im convinced that they have no intention of improving qol….ever. the way jared talks in updates, i truly think they despise their backers.

I'm keen to see movement on performance AI and server. For features I expect they will get most/all into the PU this year to try and make it more comparable to sq42 as they won't want people having to much of a jarring experience going from sq42 to PU, as the PU will be the long term earner. I think given they have investors, I expect a funding model change maybe next year, and I'd be very surprised if sq42 doesn't launch in 2025 at the latest.

We all know CIG can build environments, missions, ships, game mechanics etc etc. What we don't know is if they can get the performance sorted.

slow start to the decade. rip my enthusiasm.

Boredgamer and Mike, what are the odds of seeing Saurus ever again? 🙄

But will creatures have any real gameplay?.

Like if I want to go mining on let’s say daymar will we ever have something interesting like maybe nocturnal cave/sand spiders that hide in the caves during the day but leave to hunt at night. Giving hand minors the chance to mine while other people on the surface have to watch out at night and vise Versa for the day……. I have a hard time believing they would be able to pull something like that off

i like to see that some of the overlooked things like a beacon from a player to get fuel or get towed in, i know that is not a big deal in the moment but this is sometimes ask for. i am looking forword to get more game possibilities like engineering but this can be a possible beacon too 😝

Ah we saw the cool stuff at citizen con – which we aren’t playing yet – and that’s what makes everything feel so slow

Is it just me or are every settlement made out of a junk yard? I mean, does everyone live between a rusted out fridge and a cutty gate? People are supposed to live here but every settlement is ripped plastic and rusty metal leaned against something. Not like they couldn't possibly buy a door or perhaps even build one. Oh wait, the trees are indestructible in Stanton, I forgot.

Lore based missions in SC pu I don't see coming till after S42

i thought about it more and realized bunkers etc could all get bigger. I kinda focused on the mission builders and using the tools but all the modelers also came over. some could begin making more tiles for stations and bunkers. They talked about both being able to be extended. If they only did small tiles just because of the limited manpower the "reinforcements" could expand on all of that. With more people they could also make larger environments down there.

I don't think we'll see new tiles until the end of the year if they are doing them all from scratch but something to think about. they have an opportunity to expand so much.

Oh and to expand on something someone else had said that got me thinking. Tarkov has 2 factions. the Spec Ops running around getting gear and the Scavs who are skavaging the ruins. Creating a system in SC to let players take over some of the roles of ninetails either as part of the org or their own gangs. have criminal missions to take over a bunker to hack the computers and another mission to stop them. they can still leave a few npcs to help but missions would be so much more engaging. Hell have a priority mission from the ninetails to get players to help them loot the platforms. let siege be a mixed PvPvE battle. then there can be proper tank battles on the platforms. hell have each platform once under control allow one side or the other to spawn there. but that is kinda long term. just letting people play on both sides would definitely be fun.

Cig fulfilling on what they said they would at citizencon. Anything less is just another year of cig lying. After 10 years of saying something each citizencon then not doing it for the whole year then doing it all over again. At what point can we just say they are lying rather than coping for them by saying “well things change”. How come they seem to change every year so that they don’t have to do what they say on stage they will do. Come on.

Do what you said you would on that stage… anything less than that is a fail. Like it is every year.

Mike. I am one of the crazy-gross people you called out for hating on Bored's content. Bored's problem is not that "he is just reporting the news." His issue is that he conflates his opinion with the news being reported. Specifically, he blurs a line where he makes wild predictions that fail to come true. This creates unreasonable expectations that fuels toxicity in the community. It is a fair criticism and i will not follow content creators who engage in this behavior.

Keep up the good work guys

What a panel!

Sometimes i cannot take the toxic positivity of Bored 😀 But i watch almost every vid he releases.

people can be jerks. and it's the internet.
