You know, if they could do that competently, it probably wouldn't be a bad game. But Star Stews just sounds... fucking stupid.

It's worthy of note that you can assign the various "maintenance" activities/minigames to NPCs, if you just want to stick to the flying part.
Oh, and of course the passengers (I think the Genesis has a max. capacity of 40) can all be NPCs too (but I'm sure some crazy ass RPers like me will use it from time to time :P)
Can these things actually be done? |

What, assigning maintenance tasks to NPCs and/or NPCs acting as passengers with demands? Sure. They're present in a number of games, usually of the "Tycoon" or some other business sim variety. |

Does that number of games include Star Citizen?

Everything can be done in Star Citizen. You just need to close your eyes and dream really hard. |

Incidentally, they have apparently suffered security leak last month, and the virtual thieves made away with over 40 gb of unfinished space fantasies: http://www.dsogaming.com/news/star-citizen-suffers-40gb-assets-leak-bengal-carrier-rendered-in-the-consumer-version-of-cryengine/Star Citizen and Cloud Imperium Games have suffered a massive assets leak. A couple of hours ago, a community manager for CIG posted a screen shot that included a partial URL. Naturally, some people guessed the rest and were able to get on a torrent containing around 40GB of unreleased assets.
And even though Cloud Imperium Games was quick to react and shut it down, two people managed to completely download this enormous pack of unreleased assets.
This basically means that this pack of leaked assets is currently available on the Internet, and YouTube’s member ‘Parias Denton’ has released a new video, showcasing the enormous Bengal carrier (that was included in that pack).

I dunno, was there more than one? This one happened month ago or so, I just didn't see a mention of it in this thread around relevant time so thought it passed unnoticed. |

If your corporate security consists of serving up everything to the entire world via the web and then hoping that people can't guess URLs, you have some pretty big problems. On the plus side, 40GB is probably only, what, 2 or 3 of those virtual posters to buy to hang up in your ship's virtual hangar bay? |

Unable to get a FPS off the ground? There's no real excuse for that.

Everyone here already knows that this isn't going to be the only "module" that gets put on hold "indefinitely."

I wish they would hurry up with the train wreck. I am not sure I have the patience to wait years for it to happen.

The module integration on this sucker is going to take years. It'll be like converting a refrigerator filled with sauces into a cohesive condiment. Well, provided any of them survive development. I'm sure the SodaStream minigame module is facing some challenges.

Would be pretty funny if that ends up being one of the only ones to see the light of day.

I imagine the flight attendant career path is going to face hurdles similar to the hurdles their fps module faced. |

1. They said CryEngine is already an FPS engine so making an FPS with it would be trivial
2. Their "we need to rework the back-end" excuse is literally the exact same excuse they made when the dogfighting was delayed.
3. This game is never coming out, at least not in the form backers have been lead to believe.

Remember when we ALL said that the integration between these systems was going to be hell and someone kept repeating "nu-huh because they have been building with integration in mind from the get-go"? |

But... they released 2 HUUUGE patches that was supposed to be all back end stuff that will make integration easier.
In the meantime All you got in your actual game was a place that you can take off and land. It doesn't do anything to your ship when you do but by God you can land on it AND take off.
