I agree with you when you are talking about the hype and talk. Not so much with the promises. His first due date is August of this year. Here is a link to their release dates. http://starcitizen.wikia.com/wiki/Anticipated_release_schedule We will see what happens when the time comes.
BTW i was burnt by Peter too.

Obviously you haven't done your research when it comes to this (and the release dates). They are focusing on PVP more than anything else. (So much so, it's pushing some people away) Hell is around every turn. It's your choice to go in it or not.

The part of this whole EVE Killer thing I don't get is where everyone predicts an exodus.
There have been some games that everyone says will pull lots of EVE Players like Black Prophecy, World of Tanks and SWOTOR and they are right, they do...
...And pretty much no one cancels their EVE Accounts. It is like the concept of playing more than one game is lost on people here. |

It's like the iPhone killer thing. The iPhone is no where near number 1 in the market any more (sale wise). But, it's still there. Nothing is really going to kill something (besides the obvious). But, everyone likes to think 1 big company/game/software/etc can kill another. Hell is around every turn. It's your choice to go in it or not.

The videos of Star Citizen make me drool. But then I think, wipe off the eye candy and will the game hold up?
Is this going to be a case of a slick looking Instanced game with no real consequence? Item shop and private servers makes me wonder what exactly is the big deal here. So you have a really cool ship, now what? Will you be able to fly to a far sector and crash a camp of pirate players and put it all on the line?
Sounds more like a better version of X3 with multiplayer aspects but not really an MMO. But I could be wrong. So forgive me for any errors in my post. But that is my impression so far. |

The multi crewed ship s for me ios a massive biggy.
I love the idea of working as a team to build something and then everybody be fly that something.
Take the corvette for example.
You as a team build it and then you as a team are able to fly it... 1 actually flying the ship, 2 - 3 others flying the fighters which are docked and then a couple of others manning the guns.
I love this idea.. |

Curently the game is being developed by a core studio (Cloud Imperium Games) and several hired studios with expertise in their assigned areas. Rather than reinvent the wheel and learn to use it, Chris Roberts is hiring the people who know so they go alpha by November this year.
Will it deliver? Can't tell. I hope so, of course, as I was of the first 4,000 guys to trust the project. In worst case, I'll have paid 48 euros to get a plastic card with my SC name on it... but then, provided what CCP has taken from me in the last 4+ years and what they have delivered in exchange, it's obvious that I'm a terrible investor of my leisure money.

As I said, I think the only people who will replace EVE with this game would've replace EVE for just about anything. This includes a PS4, a new TV show, maybe a game they played before, and so on. So in reality it's not a EVE killer, but like everything it is a threat. Now the level of this is still questionable, but I hope it's a serious threat. Not so much that it kills parts of EVE or makes it where CCP has to do a 180. But, competition of any type is a good thing. However, the best competition is ones that's a serious threat. Other words there is no real reason to keep up with the user demands and to innovate the market.
Anyways, what you brought up was very important to note. One thing I would like to add on to what you said is to buy in all the hype. It doesn't matter what company I've seen that uses hype. Almost all the company can not deliver on all of it's promises. Also, we must watch out for the wording they put out. I think game companies are worst than politicians when it comes to wording something that sounds so sweet, but it turns out to be something you already have or worst. A few examples I can give is the newest SIm City (5), the newest Hitman game, the newest Assassins Creed, and the worst would be Fable 2 and 3. Right now they haven't promised and shown much. Everything they promised so far can be done with a handful of amature video game makers. That's why I only invested $40 into them.
However, the potential is there. That's why everyone is so excited about this game. Hell is around every turn. It's your choice to go in it or not. Please check out the Rookies in EVE video playlist. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLioOFeHwQV5yNk2vpz8wX9hihLVQEIKLt |

This is sort of like comparing circuit racing such as F1, Indy & NASCAR to the NHRA. While you can certainly make a case to compare any of the former three, there is not much in common with the NHRA other than it is a type of racing.
Sure, SC will be an MMO of sorts with in-game economies and yadda yadda but at the end of the day it is still a twitch based fighter sim MMO and will appeal largely to a different crowd than EvE does. |

You're forgetting EVE is much more than a PVP or a fighting PVE. Pretty much they said they were going to touch into everything EVE does (they just haven't said exactly how). An example is, they said some things like you have to scan down things when you're exploring. We already have to do this with EVE. Hell is around every turn. It's your choice to go in it or not.

As much as I loved the Wing Commander series back in the day... nope, I will not keep my hopes up for SC. Chris Roberts, like Richard Garriot and Peter Moli... noux? *smirks* always have been visionary developers, but they made their best games in the 80ies and 90ies... there is a reason nothing even remotely good has come from them over the last 10+ years.
Sure, the ideas Chris has for SC look cool, but I don't think he really knows how to make all that possible yet... we will see. "ginger forum goddess, space gypsy and stone nibbler extraordinaire!"
