I love these encouragements. Yes,by all means,play it during a free flight event and see what a POS tech demo it is. Good luck completing a single mission without dying to endless bugs or having top notch hardware to even hope of it being a fairly decent experience.

In the year 2024 CIG doesn't even know what FSR 1 is. They've been promising Vulkan for years now. Even single indie dev games have it to some extent.

SC will never be finished.

Pitchforks and rabble rousing is fun, but I actually play the game. It is a fun time, worthy of hundreds of hours as it is right now. Many people have thousands of hours. The growing number of players and growing revenue tell a different story than your ill informed guesses and chipped shoulder. This is as much a tech demo as any other early access game. I know this because I actually play it regularly. The lived experiences of the vast majority of players outweighs the angry whinging of people who don't know what they're talking about.

Who cares if it never finishes? It's fun now. I have had much more than my money's worth of fun. $50 ten years ago is still paying off in enjoyment now and it's getting better with every update. This is what the overwhelming majority of the growing number of thousands and thousands of regular players all say. Crying about it doesn't change facts.

They actually already implemented Vulcan. Though in true CIG fashion it’s pretty unstable compared to DX11. Also those free fly events are ironically a terrible time to play the game because the fragile ass servers get super bogged down. Outside of those events it’s usually decently stable.
