A quick note to our Solo Players
Today [1hr 31min ago]
Hey,
So, firstly sorry for the slow response. I have unsurprisingly been very busy post citcon with 4.0 and Q1 initiatives.
Secondly, I wanted to reassure everyone that AI blades are part of the 1.0 plan - they will not be as effective as other players and they will take additional power to run. We will also be offering a way of upgrading them through tiers but again they will never be as good as a good player.
Also as AI Blades provide most of the functionality, NPC crew will most likely be a post 1.0 plan.
As I said in the presentation, Star Citizen is a universe that caters to all players - and that most definitely includes solo players. As with all games some things will more suitable to solo than group play and vice versa.
With that said, I better get back to work as I have two games to ship for you all.
Cheers,
Rich
