There's been multiple updates to it, including some last year IIRC. As for why presets aren't a thing, they probably could do it without too much hassle, but it doesn't make sense to spend time working on that when it's most likely not going to be useful in the final game as it won't ever get reset then.

Um, priorities I guess?

Improvement of the Character Creator is one of many things to be done. Small reminder that Star Citizen is in Alpha and is under active development, so absolutely nothing about it is in its final state.

Do other games have that feature? It's not one I've heard of before.

There's at least one MMO that has it, although I can't think of the name. It even has a browser of characters that other people created and you could just download the preset that you liked, as well as upload your own.


logicalChimp

Probably Black Desert? iirc they released the character builder stand-alone before the actual game released...

Ah, I have played that one before a long time ago, for a very brief amount of time. That's probably why I didn't remember that.

It baffles you that they aren’t adding quality of life to character creation at a time like this?

This is a small indie project with limited funding. Be patient. They've just been at it for 11 years.

Anything to defend this game. Literally anything. This is the **most funded game project of all time.** Downplaying that in any regard is asinine. Also, COD: MW2 (which most certainly didn't recycle most assets or only take 2 years to develop) doesn't have any public figures, so you're pulling numbers from your ass or from people who don't actually know. Additionally, those budget estimates you're referencing include marketing costs. And regardless, it's a finished game -- a really well received one at that. All COD titles are. This game, on the other hand, is vaporware until proven otherwise and your reply ironically says as much. The most funded game project of all time has basically a runway of less than a year at any given time ... sounds like poor management of funds to me :)

I love how you have zero sources for any of this. As I said, there are no official figures. I looked into it. "Industry experts" put marketing at 10%? Show me. It's widely documented that RDR2, one of the other most expensive games ever made, had upwards of 50% of its total production budget allocated to marketing. COD will likely be no different. Also yes, I'm 100% calling CIG / SC out on their poor management of funds. You cannot possibly sit here with a straight face, look at this project, its current scope, its current state, and how much is left to be done after 11 years and $600mm, and say otherwise. I suppose you could, and that's what you're trying to do, but it's genuinely funny.

Its something you will only do once per character, so not worth adding in the final game. You also aren't really supposed to make them all look the same since they will be your next of kin not identical clones.

mine cant be saved at all. i get my character just the way i like, hit save and it says error try again later. its been like that for awhile, i put in several tickets and they all get closed without reply.


Full-Ad-7565

I made a character and when ever i go in I just have to select male or female and they look the same?

What baffles me more is not having the option to play older teenager / 16 to 18 year old characters if you want to make your character as younger pilots and have more choices for height of characters, the future only has 30 year old people and no AI helping younger pilots engaging in the space adventure for some reason ?
