What does that have to do with current playable content?
Everything ? Item 1.0, Physics, Cry Engine changes, animations base, 64bit precision, design pipelines, etcâŚ
And the same on 3.0 with 2.0 updatesâŚ
Iâm a concierge level backer, who has privileged PTU access.
Tested what they call a flight model with every update,

Not in the current pre-alpha.
2.6 may or may not make it to live this year. 3.0, definitely not.

This isnt congruent with your comment about there not being a game. Are you just here to shitpost or do you have a coherent view of some sort to voice?

There is no released game and no alpha, alpha would mean that all the game mechanics, features and assets are in.
They are not, by a long shot.
In fact, they have a bug-ridden, tech demo, thus pre-alpha. Not released.
ED, for example is a released, game. Always expanding, but released and very playable game.

The pre-alpha of SC is more interesting than ED for me. And did you realize that you claim things like if you were Chuck Norris ? Is there some SpaceJay facts I could laugh about ?
And why everybody comes on this thread to explain why âSC is shit, ED is the best game everâ ⌠is this not an âED fanboyâ thing ? 
OMG Iâm arguing like Zen. What is wrong with me ?!
Good for you.

I thought they had a few different tech-demos. Also donât think Pre-Alpha, Alpha, Beta have agreed upon definitions anymore.

eh, i mean youâre redefining the word alpha but even if you werenât thereâs a playable if unfinished game right there right now whatever word you want to use for it.
Other than top speed which i already mentioned, how is SCâs flight model not in adherence with newtonian physics?

I know, was kidding. But the ED comparison is something really frequently reached. Personally, the simple fact that there is no real EVA, and that their procedural planets are only non-atmospheric ones makes it less interesting than SC, even if in SC 3.0 is not available yet.
In fact, this is the same point that makes me less interested on I:B. Itâs a great procedural tech, but without at least FPS EVA, I think it is such a terrible mess (I know it from the beginning and it didnât stop me from helping on KS)
I agree. Every space game ever has been a terrible mess. Weâve all been lying to ourselves about space sims being fun all these years.
Surely no spaceflight game in history could have done without the ability to walk around and still be enjoyable.
It worked so well for No Manâs Sky, after all. Who are mere mortals we to argue with that level of popularity?

Why this aggressive answer ?
It is a personal opinion. With such beautiful views INovae Engine is able to deliver, itâs for me heart-breaking to not be able to just walk through these landscapes. What attracted me at the very beginning was the idea to be an explorer on I:QFE. I am not a big fan of space shooters. Now, in I:B the only thing that I find attractive is the idea of BIG BATTLES WITH HUNDREDS OF PLAYERS 
This sounds cool 
But I hope it could be possible, like in movies, to arrive in an area like face-to-face with the hundreds of enemies just in front of you and the hundreds partners youâre with. It could be an awesome moment to start each battle, could be so epic

You got it all wrong! itâs passive aggressive. 
And mostly because I donât like the vast majority of FPS games so Iâm rather biased on the matter.

Iâm not fan of FPS too. Did you try Far Cry 3 ? this one worked for me and it opened me to FPS games that are not just shooters. Then DayZ SA helped me a lot too. And FPS mode will take a good advantage with VR.
I suggested at least FPS because itâs less work for the team.
Far Cry 3 was one of the OK ones, Iâd have probably enjoyed the experience a little more if not for Uplay corrupting itself 5 times in the first week of getting it.

It may be in adherence, but by a long stretch of the imagination. Newtonian, it ainât.
Whatâs left of Cry-engines Cry-physics, maybe.
But I would not call its current state Newtonian.
Thereâs not enough popcorn in this world to eat while reading this thread ^^
Kudos to everyone who still posts new informations about SC when theyâre made available via video/blog post etc.

It shouldnt be hard to cite counter examples of newtonian physics if there are any glaring issues. Just saying âbut its cryengineâ makes me think you dont understand what newtonian physics are, represent, or how they play.
