Squadron “Feature Complete” 42

Nothing says complete like a month of crunch for the demo

feature complete =/= done

So they've been telling us it is done and just needs polish/finishing touches. If that's the case it is odd they'd need sudden forced overtime for a simple demo...

emm... what do you think "feature complete" is? it is, as I just said, not "done"

Usually means almost ready for release not many years away.

Hell even in their own words it's just around the corner.

As we move into the polishing phase, we’re fully focused on optimizing and fine-tuning all aspects of the gameplay experience to deliver an unprecedented cinematic adventure

no, no it does not, It means it is feature complete, that is all, feature complete meaning "we are about to release" is some radical redefinition shit you are doing to justify your feelings

I like how you are arguing against their own wording of the state of the game from the Devs.

I just want the fucking game I kickstarted but have given up on ever having it delivered. Of course to you that just means i'm a generic "hater".

I don't remember them saying "done", I remember them saying "feature complete", just because you don't know what that means doesn't mean they lied
