Sounds like the score is Elite - 2 Scam Shitizen - 1

Considering Saddam likes ESO, his supposed liking of E:D actually subtracts from your score, not adds to it. Eat:Dick - 0    SC - 1

Apples and Oranges. My liking of a generic FPS game has no impact on my ability to judge MMOs. You, on the other hand, like a generic MMO and therefore you judging E:D as "more original" means only the opposite could possibly be true.

Generic MMOs are 10x more cancerous than generic FPS games.

Even me, the paragon of gaming excellence, enjoys a good FPS now and then.

I fully acknowledge that TESO is crap.  The fact that I enjoy it says nothing about my judgment of a game's objective quality.

Well, I think the poll is rigged a little bit.

Why would I vote for SC when I just said that I was more interested in the erectile dysfunctional game?  Anyway, I've already voted, sorry.

The only vote apart from mine at the time I posted that was for Shit Shitizen.

Star Citizen just added friend co-op battling and racing. So, you should actually buy the game, because no one else I know cares about this game. What STEM master race failures.

I probably will at some point, but I think I'll do it later in development.

Considering its the same cost no matter what, there is really no point in waiting. It costs almost half of what E:D charges, anyway.

I probably won't wait long. Development seems to be progressing at a decent pace. I almost certainly won't be waiting for the 2023 full release, or whatever.

This thread is no place for your ridiculous optimism.

Big update to the beta today. The explorable area has been expanded to around 500 systems, a new ship was added, and the basics of exploration (gathering and selling data) gameplay have been implemented.

I'm still waiting for the reputation system to be added and the vicinity of stations to be better secured. It's not acceptable that someone can sit outside a station and blow absolutely everyone up without retribution. Even Eve Online doesn't let you do that.

It should take actual effort to run down transport ships and ransom for cargo. It should not be a station camp fest.
