Now that I have played games like Atlas and 7 Days, I really have doubts about Star Citizen because I think that kind of player-construction content is absolutely needed for a game like that to work. As far as I know, they have no such plans. Seems like they are doing canned content and the pace of rolling out that canned content has me in serious doubts that the game will ever exist even in that form.
Only reason I keep tabs on it at all is the sheer lack of other options. All these new "MMOs" are using things like Unreal Engine and every time I have tried an MMO type game using these canned engines, the problems have outweighed the fun. Star Citizen's use of Amazon's engine has potential, maybe, but seems like they dropped the ball a long time ago. Also interesting that Amazon's other game shit the bed though from what I hear it was never an engine problem so much as a pure design problem -- developers cannot decide what game they want to make and keep changing it.
Player construction like this?

Yeah I suppose that is true for me also but mine is more HOPE based.
I'd say this if Squadron 42 is a smashing success then the sky will be the limit with SC.
