Every exciting improvement in the game is overshadowed by a harsh reality: we won't have NPC crew members on our multicrew ships. I doubt they'll even work on implementing this feature after version 1.0. I feel deceived and disappointed because, had I known that NPC crew members wouldn't be part of the game, I would never have spent so much money. I would have stuck with an Avenger Titan. Why do I say this? Although it was previously communicated that NPCs would be developed after version 1.0, some sources directly connected to the developers have hinted that implementing this feature may be beyond their technical capabilities. What alternatives are there? - Get rid of all large ships and stick to single-seat ones. - Leave the project and request a refund. - Blindly trust that, in time, NPC crew members will become a reality. I don't know what to do right now. ---Adding some links regarding the topic: This is the vague response from CIG. https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/forum/3/thread/a-quick-note-to-our-solo-players A user whose opinion I share https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/forum/3/thread/why-npc-crews-and-ai-blades-are-essential-for-1-0
