How bad it is that i like whiteblack guns ? <| sep |> Star Citizen will completely obsolete ED . Are you playing Star Citizen ? Are you actually looking at what that game is at the moment , and not just the staged and controlled demos they put out to buy pointless hype ? Star Citizen is great conceptually , but the game itself is a mess , and the development itself is a confusing shambles . I remain optimistic for it , of course , it ' s already much better than way back when , and 3 . 0 is coming soon with some added hope , but Elite being the better game now and for the foreseeable future seems like objective fact . Yes , Elite has glaring issues in spades , but it ' s at least possible to play online at a framerate higher than 20 because Frontier actually bothered to program a functioning netcode that doesn ' t render the highpoly curves of a toilet seat two lightyears away . Yes , the trailers are awesome , and I creamed my pants at that sandworm leaping out of the desert , but that was a trip to Hutton away from what the game actually is now . Shallow , repetitive gameplay with missionsthat sounds familiar , no ? , buggyshoddy programming . Netcode is getting a fix , but it ' s still not possible to board a Mustang without your head phasing inside the hull and then teleporting you inside the landing gear for a second before the correct animation even plays and you sit down to realise that the slightest nudge of your ship causes the screen to go blurry and redgrey because muh immersion . And not to mention the HUD camouflages itself with any light source , like that bright star we decided to put all the lens flare on because shiny graphics good game 1010 IGN . Not bashing Star Citizenjust salty , but it ' s just not as good now as people here seem to give it credit for . It could learn a thing or two from Elite , just like Elite could from Star Citizen . If Star Citizen does make this game completely obsolete , I ' ll be incredibly sad . Having two great space games is undoubtedly better than only one .
