4 years of development and creating advanced procedural generation algorithms isn't some quick cash grab, the fact that you just called what they did little work is wildly ignorant.

How is it not a great comparison? both are indie games made by small teams, how are you bringing up NMS launch statistic in a comparison when Identity isnt even close to launching? Im comparing Dev cycles and by a year in NMS had much more done by a smaller team. People liking the game doesnt change how complex and ambitious it was for a an indie dev similar to Identity.

No Mans Sky was originally a 4 man team for the first year and change i believe.

Cut the white knight bullshit, that argument is ridiculous, i dont need to have developed a game myself to criticize.

You're seriously not comparing the development of the biggest AAA game in existence to an indie MMO... Get real compare this to No Mans Sky, a year into Development they already had a nice big trailer with fewer devs working on it at the time, almost 2 years of dev time here and nothing but the concept trailer.

No, in a year we've seen some buildings, and models. we have absolutely no idea what the rest of the islands progress looks like or even what the rest of this town looks like, you're giving them too much credit for progress we dont even know if they made. As for the screens, buildings look nice, hopefully it's done in the next few months.

The smartest thing you can do is forget this game exists(?) and just look at their twitter every 3-4 weeks because its doubtful they'd even release a screenshot more often than that.

how stupid do you sound i said two years of development is enough for a few minutes of footage not for the entire game to be finished, fucking read

The literal easiest solution is to just show a couple minutes of footage, they're either too stubborn to just do it or full of shit. There is no way they could have been developing for nearly two years and not be able to show a few minutes of footage.

Acknowledging and appeasing are two different things, if they'd show us some actual fucking progress we'd gladly stop complaining. I've already contacted them through twitter weeks ago and never received a response, that's shady as hell.

Accurate portrayal of the white knights

He said that two months ago, and I'm sure he'll say that two months from now. I pressed them and asked whats going on behind the scenes because this is shady and i got no response after about two weeks. The dumbest thing anyone here can do is actually trust them, because they've done nothing to earn that trust.

How do you know what's going on right now? They haven't disclosed that information. Everyone needs to be vocal and demand to see real progress, else I urge people to start looking into getting a refund. The fact that this is a kickstarter and literally no progress has been displayed in this amount of time beside some ingame models is absolutely unacceptable. This isn't some cute project that they can take their time on and keep everything behind curtains, people invested in them and expect to see progress.

No footage after over a year and half is definitely reason for worry, a picture of a different model every few weeks/months isn't really proof that much is getting done, most models they've been showing could be done in a day. Just yesterday on twitter they said that there was still no ETA on the video, and I'm sorry to say but for people who don't think something is up they have to be truly gullible.

In all seriousness, what the happened? No blog update for nearly 3 months, the video is nowhere to be seen, seriously questioning what is going on behind the scenes, I've been following since 2014 and the absolute minimal updates is worrying.

I don't think it matters how hard it is or how long it takes, what the issue is is we haven't received an update in over 3 months despite being told that updates would be regular and they continue to say that the game is on track for a 2017 beta release when we're more than halfway through 2016 and haven't seen anything that remotely suggests that's a possibility. The problem isn't how long they're taking it's how they're keeping everyone in the dark and have honestly nothing to show for all the talk. The lack of trust is completely normal considering many past Kickstarter games have been canned after getting funded. They either need to come out and admit that an early 2017 beta was too ambitious for a tiny team and show us at least some progress or come out and prove us completely wrong.

Sorry i got the year wrong but yeah I've been following since the beginning, i could've sworn i heard about it late 2014 though.

Possibly unless someone else I know does it, I know plenty of people that would probably migrate from Gmod DRP since it's gotten stale for a lot people. Would be semi serious, no age discrimination.

I don't understand, how can someone miscommunicate so badly that a month later we still have no video?

Well if thats a rule its only on official servers, dont know what rented server owners will allow.
