Thanks for the mention Mac... Not everyone is such a class act as you are. Also , most of the credits shall go to Morphologis or Nilhastra for organizing the event. None of that would have happened without them.
Yeah, said elsewhere, but I imagine it's a low priority for them for the time being. They'll probably swing back to the BMM after they've made an intermediary Banu ship.
@@arrisan8283 Who does not listen, everyone know work on it has stopped, they just hope it has started because channels like this make sure BMM is in the title as click bait making people watch hoping work has started on it again..
@@nedkelly9688 it's not about not being in development, but why is not in it. Im no criticizing the title either, it's about the fact dev need to speak about it again because people keep asking question they already answer
4.0 in Q3 of this year? Come on, don't you think that's a bit optimistic? Q3 starts _next week_ , 3.23 isn't even really complete and 3.24 is not out yet, either. I mean, personally I don't really care when things release, but if i'd had to guess I'd say it 4.0 doesn't get out until early 2025.
They should transfer the boat from SQ42 to PU now if it is done; then we can start developing triathalon races: as soon as one team finishes a gravbike stage on Daymar, the call goes out for the next team member to start their boat on Hurston, then a racing ship team starts next...
Not sure how well the Cutter's shield will protect against much of anything, considering it only covers two small side windows. It's more of a fancy armored sunshade than anything actually protective. Which I can still see as being useful in a place like Pyro with it's much larger and brighter sun I'd probably deploy them when going near/past the sun just to not go blind.
3:30 Lets be honest. Some ships have not been touched from their release date. Its not 1 patch tech deficiency. Its the fact they basically ain't doing Gold Standard passes anymore or if they do its 1-3 ships a year. Wondering how much time will it take for them to update the whole vehicles list?
Raise your hand, who wants to spend there time in the pu in the back of a ship as an engineer, never seeing anything but the inside of the ship? Anyone?
I hope that the scanner/information gameplay will get some more info dumps, as it's going to make multi-crew gameplay much more interesting. Potentially, at least.
Quiet sad to hear nobody is working on Banu Merchantman. My friend have it for ages and still waiting and waiting. Hope he will fly the ship before he die by age
At the current speed, large torpedoes are so slow that they never reach their target. I'm curious to see how they solve this. After all, who would fire an expensive torpedo if the chances of it hitting the target are minimal.
Nice - the summary of Bar Citizen is welcome. And the info on the Polaris has me excited. Im hopeful that the resource management system is implemented well enough & is not too tedious.
I do want to believe that the moment they decide to start working on the BMM we'll see a small/medium sized ship from the banu brand just to start building an item kit for the merchantman, in which case will be good news for everybody waiting for it.
I started playing at 3.23 invictus launch week. Have been enjoying the game so far despite its downsides. I am excited to see new improvements to the server stability
On the topic of blast shields: It would make sense for blast canopies to shield you from laser weapons, as lasers are electromagnetic waves (as light) they should (in theory) pass right through this transparent metal "glass". That is kind of the point of glass.
Another prime video mate, thanks Tobii eye tracker also works with a load of other games, not only Star Citizen but for example, most Ubisoft games which is borderline cheating in multiplayer 🤣, but also Microsoft flight Simulator and many more.
Still waiting for them to fix Kamikaze Npcs. Nothing more fund than flying across the verse to be unskillfully sent back so you can spend another 25 mins to get at the place
I reckon that we will someday get a submarine x space type ship, but that it'll be highly specialized in perhaps one specific kind of recon work or so. Like maybe it has a "bespoke" pressurization system that allows it to drop the or increase internal pressure to negate water vs vaccuum pressure (given that nobody is in those rooms at the time of pressure change ofc)
Can't wait to be an engineer on a big ship, my org has a few Idris just waiting to be flight ready I can't decide if I'd rather be on the flight deck or down in the engine room.
Buddy an I played StarCitizen last 3 evenings in a row... 1st night was hangups and crashes...2nd night was marginally better and managed to harvest some bunker gear and mineral boxes. 3rd night was 4 hangups and requisite crash with 30k errors 😬 Required game reboot after all 4 separate 30k errors. We lost the mineral boxes in the hangup which also required us to claim our now empty ships. What is happening to the game we love 🤔 We were in 3.23.1 First 2 nights with early game launcher. Last night was after updating to 2.01 launcher. We wiped Shaders and User each time. This is getting ridiculous. Try again tonight...
I've been listening to both SMB and Eradicator for years. It gives a nice warm feeling to see the four of you, (including Morphologis and Nilhastra) collaborating from Taipei. It would be nice to have a big Star Citizen function in New Zealand, however I understand the way capitalism works. Keep up the good work!
I don't think 4.0 will come in q3... there's still no trace of 3.23.2 on the ptu and even if they somehow manage a citcon release (which I don't believe they will), october is already q4. All of this feels extremely similar to 3.18 which was supposed to release in q3 of 2022, was then delayed repeatedly and released at the very end of q1 2023... pretty sure something like this will happen again.
Recently got into SC. So far it's very fun. Glad RUclips recommended your channel :) Enjoying hull c work. Yes it's jank as hell xD but hey, space trucker is a dream job hah.
Ships designed for space flight should NOT be able to float on water, BUT that does not mean they can't have a delayed sinking, with deployable floatation aids, to allow Crew/Survivors to disembark their sinking vessel. Another Question: When are we going to see Planet side craft, that can't really 'do' space but could do atmospherics really well, as well as surface vehicles that can do specific tasks? There is scope for a lot of gameplay for Planetary/Moon side activities and careers for those that want non flying jobs and adventures.
People have been asking for ships to be able to go underwater for as long as I can remember (since back in the days of 10 for the Chairman, as I recall). I'd guess once they have enough underwater content, they'll start thinking more about it. Also, I feel like the excuse people often give of "spaceships aren't designed for that sort of pressure" are forgetting that these are sci-fi vehicles with energy shields, artificial gravity, and FTL drives. I would think the technology would exist to allow them to go underwater to some extent.
Sometimes I'm really wondering how far was Paul Jones and his team into the BMM for CIG to consider having to redo it with an experienced team. They must have been at least 50% into it's dev if that's the case because if they were still at the beggining, a new team could simply continue the dev as nothing critical would have been done at this point. Cheers from Montréal, Kanada 😊
Hey just wanted to stop by and thank you for the suggestion on the VKB trio used your code sorry you don’t get any kick back. However they are truly fantastic almost broke my brain on the configuration thankfully the discord has some quality pilots that helped out on the macros and button setup. They did say “Great another Pod Racer.” 🤷♂️ think its because I turned the omni left into a throttle. 😎
Looking forward to Pyro and 4.0...and Cargo. Glad I didn't purchase a Merchant Man, thought the concept was cool but didn't have the funds to pledge it, now it looks like it'll be a while
At this point, thinking about the players' well-being and the health of the PU, they should stop releasing concept ships and focus their energy and resources on finishing the backlog of ships, at least the ones with functional mechanics. With those additional resources, they could develop FPS missions within the main cities. For example, being in Area 18, taking transport to a certain point, and doing some kind of mission within Area 18. It could be a mercenary mission, delivering boxes, or something like that.
Nice presentation of the info Mac! Thank you! I can't help but to sit here and do the Picard forehead rub, when I hear this info. Not because of CIG's answers, but because this is the info the community seemed to want to know at the bar citizen. The same rehashed material. With answers that are very likely to change in time. And the irony of it, when you see the debate among the community about what CIG should be focusing on. I'm not as interested in what or when is something to come. Or what it will be like. But more of the thoughts and decisions made that will progress the project to a more complete and polished experience. The BMM info for example, was nice to understand, that the decision to hold it for longer is due to a desire for a more experienced team to finish it, rather than rush it with what they have. Only to later have to fix the many things the rush would have caused. Would one wish for a journeyman to oversee the construction of their home, or an apprentice, because that is what is available? I am very interested in the salvage loop. But I haven't heard much about it. I'm also aware that maelstrom is highly needed to make much of what I know and hope for to be possible. I can also imagine the amount of work its going to take, to bring every ship into that tech. How is maelstrom doing? What are the hurdles? What are its dependencies? I would really like to hear about the struggles and frustrations the devs have to make things possible. It brings perspective and appreciation for the work they do.
I’m starting to wonder if there isn’t a way to subcontract Paul Jones to come back and wrap up the BMM… and I’m wondering if that’s really the opportunity the BMMis waiting on.
I am really curious what the state on 3.24 is. How the replication Layer performance is and how SIG is going to improve it. The moment all of this is in a good state, I am relly looking forward to 4.0 and engineering and goldstandard and so on...
Two of my favorites to watch, you and Erad. This will be an exciting year with the level of immersion that can be achieved with the upcoming updates. Can't wait. Thanks for sharing.
At least size 10 torpedoes will be expensive. 🤣 I strongly feel that missiles are too cheap all around. They should also be far more deadly. Guns for disabling ships, missiles for killing.
A lot of solo players bought Polaris to be their mothership, the fact that size 10 torpedoes would cost too much doesn´t matter to the solo player if he cannot fire them needing a copilot to do that, it could work like a Carrack, but with an increased hangar space for a fighter ship, a Terrapin or at least 4 pisces and snub ships. Remembering that Polaris will have a medical bay (will it be tier 2?).
Thank you for summarizing the latest developments. Currently I don’t have that much time to read or watch through all the information CIG is releasing. Your videos are much appreciated! ❤
How bout stability and some of the egregious bug fixing? I really like this game, but damn, I can't complete any mission if it includes a distribution center or work center. Otherwise thanks for what you so. Pretty new subscriber so, ur vids have been great
The Syulen is very buggy with the elevator right now; it killed me once and the restraining bar doesn't seem to retract consistently. It's cool you're giving it away, but it's currently a non-functional ship, especially for a new player.
Super happy with the progress we're seeing. But I am not in favor of CIG spending more resources to make starter ships for all manufacturers. We already have so many and there's only one viable starter: The Avenger Titan. We need more utility ships. We need a mid range salvager somewhere in between the reclaimer and the vulture and I hope it's gonna be Argo or Crusader, and also a solo refueler.
As always a very informative vid. Fingers crossed there’s a lot to look forward to in the second half of this year and especially hoping the Zeus cargo, Galaxy and maybe even the Arrastra making an appearance? But at least the personal hangars will be a welcome addition!
To be honest, the raptor should be strictly an NPC vehicle. I don't see many players picking up clutter willingly being very exciting, probably better to leave it in the hands of the ai xD
I think the retractable canopy for the Carrack is just extra armor protection. For the single node on small ships, I'm thinking that they could be like a fuse box for a house. Basically, a point of weakness that can be targeted on the ship to have it disabled by destroying the relays. Also something that the player has to maintain by replacing worn relays.
Question: Why not have an engineering station in the Personal Hangar? If you have to do maintenance and repair on fuses/components/weapons on your ships and vehicles, such a Station within your Hangar space will prove rather useful.
Woot Another video! Aw, maybe a pink paste that the ship makes that plops out of an Ice cream dispenser. Yeah, feed your crew that, and a riot will happen or fill the ship up yourself with veg, fruits and noodles,etc.
at over 200 ships, with 99% of them needing serveral reworks including future reworks with new systems and they only do maybe 8 ships to gold standard a year, then this game will take over 30 more years to be done.
I would like to see the 890J float, fly in from space and land on the water, and turn into a cruise ship, touring an exotic location. When done it has Tow Ships help it get back into Orbit.
i really hope the game gets a afk mode cocking, and what i mean with this is that if you ship has a galley or like food item say food pack. so you could use the cook& eat action and it would start to do a animation where it just starts using the kitchen or unpacking the food tray and so on. and it takes like 5 minutes or 10 what ever. but it would do this it would get your thirst and hunger handled and you in IRL would hop off to go take a quick break with out your character just staring in to a wall. same could work for manufacturing. like put your guy to make food or items from resourses and you set a number it makes and it shows you the time it takes. and that ties your character there unless you yoursell stop it from doing it. simplest versio would be the same thing that happends in fallout 4 and 76 where you start using the workpench and your character bangs hammers and so on. so idle animations or with actual manufacturing. it would be fun of players and excellent for RP players Edit: in landing zones you could take your character to a diner or bar and have them idle there with server brining food or the players character getting it themselfs. so on
It would be great to see a general shift to alien stuff in the future. Alien NPCs, alien ships, alien star systems, stations and outposts, etc. It's obviously a long way off, so I'm not too bothered that the BMM isn't here yet.
I like they make it sound like this game has been development for a year or 2 instead of 12 years already. “ We’ll work on when we bring along more senior team members.” lol How few do you have after 12 years of development. I love the idea of this game, but it may be the most poorly managed development of a game I have ever seen.
I actually don't mind that my Shutters on my Rambler are just cosmetic. It was always clear that the only difference between a ship panel and a window was that one thing was transpatent. No differences between walls and windows in durability.
Hearing that ships will have food input spots bodes well for those food/microwave stations actually doing something. Alghouth some of the big ships with those things dont have food input locations designed into their interior. Going to be like the fuses where they just tac them in.
I find the inside of the Banu Merchantman to be very creepy looking and so prefer the Kraken Privateer. My major in game goal will be to obtain a Privateer.
would be cool for security camera's to allow security to see intruders if they get spotted on them... or directional sensors on each deck of multicrew ships which could give trespassing players intent on stowing away or sabotaging the ship they're on to have to avoid as they move about
You rock! Thank you for all the amazing news and content. I love watching all of your zero to hero videos. They are awesome to just chill out and work to.
I feel like the glass should only protect you so much. I mean how strong can it actually be? Even with future tech, i feel like it should still be a decent weak point on the ship which would make the armor more useful
I have been watching your videos for a long time and always enjoy the content you bring and the info and research you put into it, Keep up the good work
no bode will use the size 10 torps because they cost so much and that fact they get shot down before that hit the target so a big waste of dosh . a solo Polaris would have to change seat to fire them only 4 LOL and then head down to the loading room which I would say would the need to fly away first LOL
Ryan what the hek a ship there is not a scanning ship shelll not be able to see cargo or Crew at all otherwise there is no ppoint of the scanner ship if all the othership have the role to pick out the taget you want to attack if you have no scanner ship it need to be there is a random chance you pick a emtry ship if not you have a scanner ship people need to work for pvp an that kind of ambush.. why do you or all talk aboudt you need to get every thing feeed with a spoon that you ship can everything ??? it will be very unfair if you with a fighter can scan other ships
modern times but still citizens have to run around to get relays fixed lmao, id say in those times no relays would exist, orrr done and fixed by droids.
Thanks for the mention Mac... Not everyone is such a class act as you are. Also , most of the credits shall go to Morphologis or Nilhastra for organizing the event. None of that would have happened without them.
Banu Merchantman info: 10:41
Work will continue when they find more senior devs to work on this ship.
well they did explain several time why the bmm is not in devellopement but people don't listen >_>
They'll continue work when every other function pertaining to its loops is operational, but until then, anything said otherwise is cope.
Yeah, said elsewhere, but I imagine it's a low priority for them for the time being. They'll probably swing back to the BMM after they've made an intermediary Banu ship.

That’s not his opinion. That’s what cig said.
I agree, I’d think best case it’ll be last minute 2024 or early 2025
That’s according to CIG dude, check your facts. Realistically I think 4.0 will be Q4 but CIG did state Q3.
They should transfer the boat from SQ42 to PU now if it is done; then we can start developing triathalon races: as soon as one team finishes a gravbike stage on Daymar, the call goes out for the next team member to start their boat on Hurston, then a racing ship team starts next...
The Cutter & Carrack deployable shields can protect against things like solar flares, which we'll have with Pyro.
Not sure how well the Cutter's shield will protect against much of anything, considering it only covers two small side windows.

They cant get anything done, but we need more stupid eating and drinking survival game shit.
I saw you sneak in shots of Delamar/ Levski and Port Oli... Pulling at the heartstrings there. Great video Ryan
I miss Delamar, really cool looking dwarf planet landscape and lighting

ah, good to hear that the bmm is maybe 10 years away from being completed..
Silly billy thats not the case
As a BMM owner the longer it's in development the better.
I hope that the scanner/information gameplay will get some more info dumps, as it's going to make multi-crew gameplay much more interesting. Potentially, at least.
I saw Banu Merchantman in the title and clicked. Thanks for the info.

Imagine the panic every time shields get low. Every ship becomes susceptible to one shot through the canopy. I vote "special" glass.
I like this idea
Or just coat the outside of the glass with a mirror like finish so the lasers reflect

To be honest, the raptor should be strictly an NPC vehicle. I don't see many players picking up clutter willingly being very exciting, probably better to leave it in the hands of the ai xD
Really sounds like the bar citizens are working in our favour, we get a tad more info beside the usual SC-live and ISC. Loving the coverage Mac!!
I think the retractable canopy for the Carrack is just extra armor protection.
For the single node on small ships, I'm thinking that they could be like a fuse box for a house. Basically, a point of weakness that can be targeted on the ship to have it disabled by destroying the relays. Also something that the player has to maintain by replacing worn relays.
Question: Why not have an engineering station in the Personal Hangar? If you have to do maintenance and repair on fuses/components/weapons on your ships and vehicles, such a Station within your Hangar space will prove rather useful.
Woot Another video! Aw, maybe a pink paste that the ship makes that plops out of an Ice cream dispenser. Yeah, feed your crew that, and a riot will happen or fill the ship up yourself with veg, fruits and noodles,etc.
at over 200 ships, with 99% of them needing serveral reworks including future reworks with new systems and they only do maybe 8 ships to gold standard a year, then this game will take over 30 more years to be done.
I would like to see the 890J float, fly in from space and land on the water, and turn into a cruise ship, touring an exotic location. When done it has Tow Ships help it get back into Orbit.
I hope I get to play this game in its full glory before I become an old man. Though maybe it will be the highlight of my retirement.
i really hope the game gets a afk mode cocking, and what i mean with this is that if you ship has a galley or like food item say food pack. so you could use the cook& eat action and it would start to do a animation where it just starts using the kitchen or unpacking the food tray and so on. and it takes like 5 minutes or 10 what ever. but it would do this it would get your thirst and hunger handled and you in IRL would hop off to go take a quick break with out your character just staring in to a wall.
same could work for manufacturing. like put your guy to make food or items from resourses and you set a number it makes and it shows you the time it takes. and that ties your character there unless you yoursell stop it from doing it. simplest versio would be the same thing that happends in fallout 4 and 76 where you start using the workpench and your character bangs hammers and so on.
so idle animations or with actual manufacturing. it would be fun of players and excellent for RP players
Edit: in landing zones you could take your character to a diner or bar and have them idle there with server brining food or the players character getting it themselfs. so on
It would be great to see a general shift to alien stuff in the future. Alien NPCs, alien ships, alien star systems, stations and outposts, etc. It's obviously a long way off, so I'm not too bothered that the BMM isn't here yet.
A Crusader ship would be fantastic. They are my favorite manufacturer, and I would love to see them expand their inventory.
I like they make it sound like this game has been development for a year or 2 instead of 12 years already. “ We’ll work on when we bring along more senior team members.” lol How few do you have after 12 years of development. I love the idea of this game, but it may be the most poorly managed development of a game I have ever seen.
While a Crusader starter will be nice, I hope it will actually have an obvious use unlike how Origon's 100 series is overshadowed bu the 300 series.
I actually don't mind that my Shutters on my Rambler are just cosmetic. It was always clear that the only difference between a ship panel and a window was that one thing was transpatent. No differences between walls and windows in durability.
Does this mean that 4.0 is still planned for Q3? Just making sure I'm understanding their point correctly.
Hearing that ships will have food input spots bodes well for those food/microwave stations actually doing something. Alghouth some of the big ships with those things dont have food input locations designed into their interior. Going to be like the fuses where they just tac them in.
Thanks for the video! I was hoping for engineering to hit more ships in 4.0, but I'm excited regardless!
I find the inside of the Banu Merchantman to be very creepy looking and so prefer the Kraken Privateer. My major in game goal will be to obtain a Privateer.
would be cool for security camera's to allow security to see intruders if they get spotted on them... or directional sensors on each deck of multicrew ships which could give trespassing players intent on stowing away or sabotaging the ship they're on to have to avoid as they move about
You rock! Thank you for all the amazing news and content. I love watching all of your zero to hero videos. They are awesome to just chill out and work to.
As someone who already spends an hour in a session being the janitor at various stations, I'm excited for the Misc Raptor if it will be available 😂
I feel like the glass should only protect you so much. I mean how strong can it actually be? Even with future tech, i feel like it should still be a decent weak point on the ship which would make the armor more useful
the Lore Answer to the ship glass question is Dimond Laminate Composite it's literally Dimond glass or Carbon glass as it also referred to.
Thanks for all you do for the Star Citizen community. It's a happier world with your content in it.
Great video as always, hope to jump into Star Citizen asap finally!
Why thumbnail the merchantman only to report that they are doing nothing on it at all. :P Boardgamer did the same thing.
So many things to look forward to for the upcoming quarterly release. Fingers crossed!
Thank you for condensing all news Star Citizen in these short, very watchable videos!
Thanks for the great update video. Glad I stumbled on your channel. Keep putting out content!
I have been watching your videos for a long time and always enjoy the content you bring and the info and research you put into it, Keep up the good work
no bode will use the size 10 torps because they cost so much and that fact they get shot down before that hit the target so a big waste of dosh . a solo Polaris would have to change seat to fire them only 4 LOL and then head down to the loading room which I would say would the need to fly away first LOL
This is a crazy year for SC. A lot of stuff happening. Can't wait to hear more about SQ42 at CitCon.
Ryan what the hek
a ship there is not a scanning ship shelll not be able to see cargo or Crew at all
otherwise there is no ppoint of the scanner ship if all the othership have the role to pick out the taget you want to attack
if you have no scanner ship it need to be there is a random chance you pick a emtry ship if not you have a scanner ship
people need to work for pvp an that kind of ambush..
why do you or all talk aboudt you need to get every thing feeed with a spoon that you ship can everything ???
it will be very unfair if you with a fighter can scan other ships
Holy crap im so excited for the future! All those hours and dollars helping to make this game possible is paying off!
I'm curious to see how they 'll manage for merchands into the Banu Merchantman. Nice video btw
Really interesting info dump. I think it would be a huge missed opportunity to not see the 890J float in water
A crusader startup would be cool. I’d much rather them work on existing concepts though 😂
Love to watch your videos for catching up on info! Also would love the package as I only have avenger on my hands.
Thanks for the info Ryan, Star Citizens one stop information channel.
I thought, at one point, one of the features of the cutty red / Apollo was the ships ability to scan for humans / injured ?
Love your videos and streams Ryan! Keep up the great work! Would love to add that giveaway to my fleet!
I saw Banu Merchantman and impulsively clicked on the video…annnnd disappointed again
SMB you are probably the most positive player in star citizen great informative video.
As a long term BMM Owner its a little bit frustration especialy when the Misc Hull C loaner is so broken atm.
Interesting. I am surprised by the candid nature of information released in Bar Citizen. Wish I had one close to me.
modern times but still citizens have to run around to get relays fixed lmao, id say in those times no relays would exist, orrr done and fixed by droids.
“Gold Standard” just means they can re sell us the same ships with a “mk2” slapped on the back of it
I've seen in the PU, ships underwater and being able to take off from underwater. Was that a bug ?
