Bordering on parody, the blog post is very detailed but doesn't end up saying much.
This week's developer response, the team's way of assuaging concerns, is quite a thing to behold. The general silence on this part of the game compared to the rest made fans uneasy. In March, following a lack of regular updates, CIG told players it will share more Squadron 42 news as part of its various developer updates and AMAs, but the developer only included some updates in newsletters sent to backers, not the wider community. The most recent development roadmap had the Squadron 42 beta pegged for the third quarter of this year. Squadron 42 is the single-player, A-lister-star-lead story campaign, which - like the main game - was announced years ago but has yet to be finished. Motivated by a Reddit post from disgruntled Star Citizen backers, developer Cloud Imperium has responded to fan requests regarding more regular updates about Squadron 42.
Star Citizen developer CIG is struggling to put together a roadmap for the long-in-development Squadron 42 story campaign.
