Letter from the Chairman on Dogfighting

It's official folks. Star Citizen has hit its first major delay. This is not surprising, most people closely following the game have been expecting this but here it is anyway...

CIG has delayed the Dogfighting Module for "a couple months". I expect that will probably mean March. Plain and simply they're not ready. They have decided to finish constructing the MMO backend and run the DFM on it, instead of just using the netcode in CryEngine (which was the original plan)... plus some other assets aren't ready. Disappointing but not surprising.

CIG will be doing a Christmas Livestream on Friday, Dec. 20th at 10 AM Mountain time, for two hours, which will include them discussing and showing the state of the DFM.

Here are some fantastic screenshots that accompanied the message: (CLICK TO EMBIGGEN)
