once the game is maybe 2 years after release 1.0 theyll start to reduce the team sizes. Theyll still have a big team working on SQ42 episodes but after all the major and minor techs tools and features are in place, they arent needed anymore and shouldnt be held if they want to go to other studios.
I would like that kind of longterm full-scale support to happen. But they probably would need to change their financing model to monthly subscription in order to pay those 300+ employees for several years. I personally would be fine with this. But it would be something they promised will not be happening... so the shitstorm will be intense, if they decide to go this way
thats the way in a industrie like this :) even in Movies the awsome big teams split up after the movie is done... Much will stay....others will look for other adventures to work on ^^
The 4 Ministries are thoroughly pleased with your display at CitizenCon. As a thanks, the Ministry of Truth will air this video in Oceana for a full week. Best of regards, Airfield One, Oceana.
Be alert, trust no one, guard all information jealously. Giving out too much information is treason punishable by execution. The Computer says so. The Computer is god. The Computer is your fiend.
although I couldnt make it to LA this year, the event and community coming together for the same cause is incredible & I would not want to cover any other game :) o7 to all
Someone senior to him really needs to tell him to stop saying that. At one point he said 'you know' three times at the beginning of a sentence before he'd even said anything. On another occasion he said, "you know the you know". It's irritating and it makes him sound like a moron. That's a shame because I'm sure he isn't a moron.
+tehFozzeY yeah, indeed good. i love how they set up their studio with all the art and cool stuff. if anyone deserves to build their dreamstudio, than these guys. throw money on em!!
I have this video on through Bluetooth in my taxi haha two people have just been individually told everything they need to know about our game, must pick up at least five people every week that Still haven't heard of Star citizen haha still spreading the word of SC ☺️
that's over 3 years mate so not that much but ships plus respective modules like the retaliator drop ship module and the endeavour modules include the Banu MM-Carrack-Crucible-Cutlass Blue/Red-Endeavor-Freelancer MIS-Gladius-Gladiator-Herald-Idris P-Mustang Delta-Orion-Redeemer-Retailator-Reclaimer-Sabre-Starfarer Gemini-Super Hornet-Vanguard-Xian Scout-890 Jump and blade. If you ever need to loan a ship look me up in game TcM. have a good weekend bro :)
Thanks for talking about the networking! It's probably the most crucial part of the game. Great to see where you're at as well as hearing about your plans for the near future.
It's a media display room so it sort of has to. If you're putting on a TV show or video publication, unless a more run down motif is part of the MO, you're going to want it to look as nice as you can, hence the somewhat nice couches, artwork, proper lighting, etc.
LOL I'd love to be in a high level meeting with these guys - you can see the passion and the disagreements oozing to the surface without them having to say a word sometimes. Awesome team.
Tony Zurovec alone is enough to put most people into the hospital. But I know his type. I was his type. Too much in my head and the mouth just can't keep up with the amount of data so I would stutter and stammer or use certain phrases or words too often. Took a while for me to get into the Brian Chambers way of detailing my info to people.
26:21 I agree with the guy! high risk high gain maneuver! to make the difference from the good pilots and the bad ones, think of han solo light speed stop in the force awakens! would be amazing!
it should be that the gravitational pull of the earth will reroute your destination and you might hit a moon or an steroid, so youll have to stop at the planets orbit to be safer assuming you dont hit a space station or a satellite. this feature will make the game more diverse in option game play
yashizuko well going that fast would obliterate the planet, and the stunt Han Solo pulled in The Force Awakens is absolutely impossible. I mean, it's light speed (just a tad slower than Ludicrous Speed), they'd either crash on the planet or get smashed on the windshield from the brutal deceleration :)
Ruben J. Henriquez same! my main focus of the game will be exploration and science ships, i hope theres planets with full atmospheres with dynamic weather systems
I loved the background insight into the decisions bout SQ 42 demo etc. I do support the decision definitely. I backed the game to give you guys the free hands to work on the game and never regretted the decision. I'll return from my around the world trip in six months and can't wait what you have created in the time being. A shoutout to Brian Chambers, Jared and the Frankfurt office, I do hope you got my postcard from Namibia!
haha I wish I was a billionare, I would donate 50 million on the hush hush, make them promise not to include it on the website counter, and just keeeeeep developing xD
they should have annouced days before that there will be no SQ42 stuff showing. So there wouldn't be a let down for some. the gameplay was really awesome. I was very impressed. but it was a bit overshadowed from the let down and the boring powerpoint stuff. They could have showed some 2.6 instead. Still a huge fan tho :)
Oliver Schneider It was announced...at least REAL citizens knew it. There were several hints and it is even discussed in the forums. Just wanted to say that and that people should stop wining. If there is a delay (as only dumb people are calling) or whatever...it has a reason. I always had and always will have. Star Marine "delay" (which was no delay because noone announced anything) is also coming now for a reason. And it wasnt about rewriting all on their own, like people tebd to say. It was player movement/animation/behaviour, that was out of wack. Even that was known by us. Same with AI and other logics werent polished enough to make sq42 an appearance...that was 95% clear already days before. And noone bothers...only a small vocal hyped kids community. Live with it. This shitstorms of uninformed will always happen, they will set targets, that people will perceive as release date and not meet it....all that will constantly happen as more and more idiotic kids jump the train. Sure we now get all the console players, battlefield shitkids, etc. in, that will waste precious air for their shitstorm of being uninformed. I am backer since day...10 or something...and I havent seen any delay until now. They set targets...some of the early ones were outdated days after kickstarter start, as intrlligent people knew, that the company has to ramp up and get stuff done. And we knew since we smashed all goals, that development time will be at least 6 years or more...I would tend to say 10-12 years...as other new ip aaa games also need that times. So please....enjoy or completely leave and join later, if you want. Dont always go bad publicity, as this is not helping. If you want projects to fail...hammer them... but let people with real knowledge spread info and not people, who are only in the forums once a week and additionally dont grab any real infos and dont have the technical understanding. It doeant make people tech guys, just because they recently fancied up their pc with octacor cpu, ssd and 2 1080s in SLI. That only makes most of them idiots, as noone needs that!!! And those are the loudest...talking stuff they dont know.
The team worked through the weekend to try and get it done, Chris Roberts saw it and said that they won't be showing it because it's not polished enough. Sure, they could have shown it and got a bunch of money off the hype but Chris made a commitment to show it when it's final polished and it wasn't, so he said no. They worked very hard and it was a little minute decision down to Chris Roberts.
+MrStubbs1981 Just to clarify, I don't care if there are any delays. They should take all the time they need. They maybe could have said it days before. To withhold this info till the end isn't doing a favor to anyone. You can't say they didn't see that coming, that would be a liitle naive on CR's part. It was not a big deal just a little criticism which should be allowed. Constructive criticism should not discourage anyone. Sry for my bad english.
Wir können auch auf deutsch :) No, your english is as fine as mine....we both dont have it as our native language...so...people need to learn to see that and not take wording too serious. Some tranlation may seem rude. But I am not talking around the facts...I simply get to them...probably as you. But again: Our german journalists even jumped the train, although some are self proclaimed starcitizen fans....and even they have NO CLUE of what they are talking about at all. Besides being not informed, they write like they are. And they cannot wrap around the most general tech and flip out on some stuff like little kids....as if they are simply not very informed AT ALL. At the end, they are just gay couchpotatoes, that have a nerd haricut and are slim or fat with beard. As they fit that nerd look, they get a job as journalist. Same worldwide! I havent really seen a really capable journalist for a decade now. Usually they play WoW, battlefield and that general stuff....and that is, where they are coming from. Uninformed faggots reporting stuff. That is, why so many bad games are actually not rated bad. Mass consumer oriented doesnt mean, you can just left out the knowledge skill completely. I understood you...I just wanted to clear the point, that there wasnt even ANY real delay, that was not forseeable, that wasnt having a good reason, that people simply didnt get or that was even planned up to the will of the comnmunity to spend more time instead of rushing. 80% of the community agreed on the decision to take more time and get stuff right, before actually punping out content. And to be honest: Most of what they did only helps that stuff to come out faster in the future. If the groundwork is setup right and nothing is cheated, you can simply put out content easier later on. And as they said: This game is planned to be WoW in space in terms of longivity. And if they would have rushed, we would see content a lot less quick. The procedural tech jumped in as logical consequence to make planets faster, more realistic in size, etc. We would also could have autolanding sequence into a landing zone....no free fly over planets AT ALL. If we would agree with those people, who claim the slow progress, we would never see any planetary interaction. Why, because rewriting after everything is in, is a hilariously dumb thought. And Chris and his team is really digging it! They dont cheat on stuff and really try to tackle every possible aspect in every possible gamefeature and make it systemic, so that content later can come out quickly and that there are no big engine overhauls with massive floods on bugs is necessary. So, they can even take 4-.5 more years, if you ask me. In such a game with such a goal and so much to do, it really better is right....otherwise it dies.
Like Knights of the round table. I absolutely loved this! Every single one these guys are so super interesting, the genuine passion from every single one of them is amazingly surreal. Sean Tracy should be there though lol, he is also hugely passionate about all this. Tony Zurovec is my fave though. He is basically the lead designer on how the entire PU will mesh together. No wonder he gets somewhat confuddled constantly saying what he does
I remember watching a video that was probably made back in 2012, where CR talked about a network architecture that would not have shards, but where instances would be dynamic, and could divide or merge, depending on the number of players trying to inhabit a given amount of virtual space. It sounds like that has now gone by the wayside, but it was an intriguing concept and I'd have liked to have seen it realized.
Careful Chris you cant make the game so good that your staff will want to just sit down and play it all day ;). Jokes aside you guys seem so excited I know this project will turn out well!
People are upset about citizen con and they don't realize that citizen con is all about the community and not the game. Sure they were rushing to get things ready and were unable to complete the parts they wanted to show but again I think about the hard work, late hours, and stress the teams have when trying to put together a good show for the community. I say who cares about the game at this community-centered event. This should be the only event where the devs and the community get to enjoy each others company. We get weekly updates on the game and tech constantly to where anything extra at citizen con is just a nice bonus. We will continue to see progress towards SM and S42 in weekly updates we get. I see people all the time say that the teams need a break from working hard all the time and what better time then citizen con for them to enjoy a community of star citizens. IMO the reaction of some in the community brings undue stress to the team during such an upbuilding event that was focused on everyone in this community.
is 50:20 a hint that squadron 42 will come out before 3.0? Forgive me if they've already disclosed that, but in my mind is was 2.6(Nov) -> 3.0(Dec) -> S42(early 2017).
Gah, you know, this stuff is so awesome you know. I really can't wait till the further along parts come out you know. Thanks for talking about all of this you know.
To all the people saying they are taking too long on making the game I think the creators should take their time because we want them to create a quality game if you rush then we are gonna get an alright product and everyone's gonna complain and moan.
XxTheProElitexX Not entirely true. The studio has a big retaliator model directly behind the cast, dead center of every scene, and it's been a while since anything has been talked about. They gathered data over the summer, a list of fixes and changes the community would like to see for the retaliator. Many of us believe that info was used to build the Polaris, since it's damn near the same thing, most fixes we listed were used. They just made the ship three times bigger. People are pretty salty over it, since no word has been given officially about what happened to the info we gave them or what it was used for. Last communication from a Q&A rep was in may. Besides the one in July saying it's out of his hands and has no idea what's going on. Just because they have a concept picture up, doesn't mean anything. Bmm= 2018
I wasn't exactly keeping track... I stopped it significantly less than than halfway, but I didn't know there was going to be a pop-quiz or I'd have taken notes of the exact time and numbers.
mrzazzaable Yeah, Chris has a bad habit of wanting to explain in more detail what someone is talking about. I think it's a personal tic that he probably has a hard time controlling. I know I do it myself sometimes, and even when I know I'm doing it I occasionally can't stop it. Very irritating for me, personally.
How can i support star citizen? just buying game or a ship? like it so much!!! i will buy 42 squad right now.. 1 week seeing all concerning SC. Simply amazing! keep the job High!
You need to buy game to play. Squadron 42 is single player campaign. Star Citizen is MMO. Each game is $45. You can get both for $60. The game is all you need to play. You don't need to buy additional ships. All ships can be acquired in-game in Star Citizen using in-game money.
25:18 We have shards now? The Gem of Immortality has been shattered! A traveler from the stars has slain Mondain and freed us from his Tyranny! Huzzah!
"The Polaris, the ship everyone was excited about" - Yeah Ben? Everyone was like "We want you to make the Tali feel even more neglected by your Dev team, give us a torpedo capital ship! GTFO -------------------------------- Outside of that, this was an awesome RTV!
Hmmm... Erin Roberts talks at 50:30 About AI and tells us we see/play the first iteration with them in 3.0. then he stops for a second and says that we see it also in sq42... the way he says or better the way he corrects himself there keeps me thinking: "maybe sq42 isnt really that far away we all thought after directly after citizen con... maybe, maaaaybe erin thinks we could possibly see or play sq42 before or around the release date of 3.0..." o.O
Honestly, this whole RtV should really have been about them DELIVERING on their broken promises, not about painting even more tech dreams people can simply not rely on any more to be delivered on time (if ever).
no not really, only if Chris thinks it was a really big deal, and it might still not be finished. Also i think its waaay more likely we see the SQ42 demo mission on the anniversary livestream or the christmas livestream than on a regular ATV. This ATV will probably feature some stuff of the homestead demo and some spectrum stuff. Maybe some more about 2.6 who knows but i wouldnt hope for the SQ42 mission.
oh, my, god, nice to see all those people together!
Brian Chambers is all like: "You guys are all dreaming but me and my team have to build all this tec, damnit!"
cogigo He looks like he has jet lag.
once the game is maybe 2 years after release 1.0 theyll start to reduce the team sizes. Theyll still have a big team working on SQ42 episodes but after all the major and minor techs tools and features are in place, they arent needed anymore and shouldnt be held if they want to go to other studios.
I would like that kind of longterm full-scale support to happen.
But they probably would need to change their financing model to monthly subscription in order to pay those 300+ employees for several years.
I personally would be fine with this. But it would be something they promised will not be happening... so the shitstorm will be intense, if they decide to go this way
thats the way in a industrie like this :) even in Movies the awsome big teams split up after the movie is done...
Much will stay....others will look for other adventures to work on ^^
Still its a fact that the crew will get smaller after release...some want new jobs others are not needed anymore...
you cant stop that

Is that Hoid I see?
Indeed it is! \[T]/
uuuuh.....what was that all about ?¿?
Damn. The production quality here is awesome. Great job guys!
when did this show stop geting recorded in the back of a van?
After they sold the Polaris and got millions
After the van ran out of gas.
I was surprised as well it wasnt 4 people sitting around a table. it's nice set, wish they use it more.
Cujo H the van had to be traded in for a more fuel efficient toyota prius...and its trunk couldn't cram all these guys in :)
the show is funded separately by subscribers.
although I couldnt make it to LA this year, the event and community coming together for the same cause is incredible & I would not want to cover any other game :) o7 to all
This is one of the only games I can hear new info about and always have a big stupid smile on my face lol
love how the smallest guy gets his own chair
Oh my god, this is like the G8 summit of CIG right here.
I backed this game back in 2015 February and I have never been more excited for this game. Amazing job CIG! Thank you for this great universe!
Great show! And thank you Ben, for announcing our upcoming Fan event on October 22. in Frankfurt Germany!
This reverse the Verse was filmed in 64 YKM's (You Knows per minute)
Laughed way too hard at that. :D
Timing ;)
Someone senior to him really needs to tell him to stop saying that. At one point he said 'you know' three times at the beginning of a sentence before he'd even said anything. On another occasion he said, "you know the you know".
It's irritating and it makes him sound like a moron. That's a shame because I'm sure he isn't a moron.
Great interview boys, Tony, get a hair cut, and say hi to Wingman!
WM
Descendent Studios Woah, be careful. Last time I commented saying I thought Tony should get a haircut I got chewed out in a week long argument.
Screw you!
i miss you wingman. you were so much more fun as a host than most of these guys.
its.... its the real wingman! :O
O7
Wingman! I hope they put you and Rob in the game. You need to get your arses down there for some facial scanning. :)
Wonderful, just wonderful! So many questions answered and great vision sharing for the future. Thank you so much!
Quite a cool setting for a round table type discussion. Haven't seen this room before? Dig the slightly futuristic furniture.
How does it feel to have paid for it?
tehFozzeY good.
tehFozzeY Pretty good. Glad they chose some cool stuff.
+tehFozzeY
yeah, indeed good. i love how they set up their studio with all the art and cool stuff. if anyone deserves to build their dreamstudio, than these guys. throw money on em!!
Feels great... All of the things they provide we pay for and it makes the journey and experience much much better. I wouldn't have it any other way.
I could listen to Tony talk about the game for hours, the passion, vision and detail is astounding.
I have this video on through Bluetooth in my taxi haha two people have just been individually told everything they need to know about our game, must pick up at least five people every week that Still haven't heard of Star citizen haha still spreading the word of SC ☺️
Oh yes but I've backed nearly 8000$ too so I'm helping financially too :)
that's over 3 years mate so not that much but ships plus respective modules like the retaliator drop ship module and the endeavour modules include the Banu MM-Carrack-Crucible-Cutlass Blue/Red-Endeavor-Freelancer MIS-Gladius-Gladiator-Herald-Idris P-Mustang Delta-Orion-Redeemer-Retailator-Reclaimer-Sabre-Starfarer Gemini-Super Hornet-Vanguard-Xian Scout-890 Jump and blade. If you ever need to loan a ship look me up in game TcM. have a good weekend bro :)
:)
That rug really ties the room together.
Thanks for talking about the networking! It's probably the most crucial part of the game. Great to see where you're at as well as hearing about your plans for the near future.
That studio looks so clean! :O
It's a media display room so it sort of has to. If you're putting on a TV show or video publication, unless a more run down motif is part of the MO, you're going to want it to look as nice as you can, hence the somewhat nice couches, artwork, proper lighting, etc.
Because a filthy room is treason. Always smile and keep your shoelaces tied. The Computer is all knowing. The Computer is your friend.
Now this is one well-deserved MVP award - wasn't always happy with the choices in the past, but this one I wholeheartedly support!
1:06:00 Good to see you again Ben. Love having you on the show.
"You know" x9999 xD
That's too much, man
***** It was like his endless you knows started to rub off on the rest of em. Except Brian Chambers, he's a cool cat.
They all know
if these guys put in 1 dollar to the funding level per 'you know' they would have doubled the current funding after this 1 episode.
Wow Chris explained the 64 bit positioning really well!
Thank you for making our sci-fi dreams come true. You are the best. Every one in every team are Hero.
LOL I'd love to be in a high level meeting with these guys - you can see the passion and the disagreements oozing to the surface without them having to say a word sometimes. Awesome team.
You know someone's really passionate about what they do when they cut the CEO off explaining the question, haha. Great video guys love the format
Drinking game time!....
Ya know? =D
"Fidelity"
Only if you're OK ending up in hospital...
I think I'm gonna count how many "Ya know"s there are, over the next few days.
Any takers for guesses/bets? XD
Tony Zurovec alone is enough to put most people into the hospital. But I know his type. I was his type. Too much in my head and the mouth just can't keep up with the amount of data so I would stutter and stammer or use certain phrases or words too often.
Took a while for me to get into the Brian Chambers way of detailing my info to people.
Oh wow, I was about to make a remark about this, but here you are :D bottoms up! 911 on speeddial
I love watching the devs nerd out over their own game, its always reassuring when you see how much they want it too.
i think they said "you know" so much u need 64 bit precision to calculate the number😂😎
I love listening to those guys geeking out about all the crazy stuff they are developing!
the best interview in the history of star citizen hands down. WOW
I am using 1.25 speed to safe time. :)
Omg.. thanks for this comment... 1.25 rocks!
You're the real MVP here!
I watch all their videos on 2x speed and slow it down to normal on any demos or graphics :)
Perfect!
how??
I like it when Erin talks and the camera shifts to Chris' close-up randomly. Chris is judging everything his bro says! LASER EYES!
Where did you get those couches? I like them. I want them.
Zack Duncan I like those tables, weird how they look like kidneys lol
Zack Duncan The backers paid for them
Same here!
Jabran Khan it's safe to assume that they used money to pay for them. I'm asking from what store they purchased them.
Jabran Khan technically yes, events such as Citcon and shows like ATV are funded by community subscribers.
26:21 I agree with the guy! high risk high gain maneuver! to make the difference from the good pilots and the bad ones,
think of han solo light speed stop in the force awakens! would be amazing!
Yeah. That would be awesome
it should be that the gravitational pull of the earth will reroute your destination and you might hit a moon or an steroid, so youll have to stop at the planets orbit to be safer assuming you dont hit a space station or a satellite. this feature will make the game more diverse in option game play
yashizuko well going that fast would obliterate the planet, and the stunt Han Solo pulled in The Force Awakens is absolutely impossible. I mean, it's light speed (just a tad slower than Ludicrous Speed), they'd either crash on the planet or get smashed on the windshield from the brutal deceleration :)
Eric Kieron Davis for host for ATV/RTV please so much better.
I think he's busy with his full time job of being a Producer.
Are you saying you dont like the awkward and constantly out of breath ben lensnick? Cmon man dont be like that.
Cloud Strife no I'm saying I don't like Jared.
***** That one is a goodie, he just sounds so not genuine. I cant believe they fired james pugh and put that guy instead, major mistake.
I 100% agree, Eric has great charisma for being a presenter, he is superb (Eric if you read this - you're going places!
My favorite part about this game is probably going to be the ships and entering atmospheres, the weather and stuff like that. :D
mine is going to be player interaction
of course I'm going to be a pirate. with me -friends- crew
Mine will be EVA raids.
Ruben J. Henriquez same! my main focus of the game will be exploration and science ships, i hope theres planets with full atmospheres with dynamic weather systems
According to the team, there will be, the sandstorms are already a big step in that aspect.
willl676 Yeah but I'm talking about hurricanes, storms, snowstorms, Tornadoes etc...
Missing Sean Tracey in that round. Would've stretched that discussion to 3hrs.
I loved the background insight into the decisions bout SQ 42 demo etc. I do support the decision definitely. I backed the game to give you guys the free hands to work on the game and never regretted the decision. I'll return from my around the world trip in six months and can't wait what you have created in the time being. A shoutout to Brian Chambers, Jared and the Frankfurt office, I do hope you got my postcard from Namibia!
Honestly. If i had a better job, I would gladly throw $1,000 more at these guys just for making my long lived dream come true.
I did :)
I took care of it for ya. :)
haha I wish I was a billionare, I would donate 50 million on the hush hush, make them promise not to include it on the website counter, and just keeeeeep developing xD
good idea. make us wait longer. haha
A really good episode !!! This was the dream team of Star Citizen, just Sean Tracy missing ^^ Can't wait for future updates !!!!!
they should have annouced days before that there will be no SQ42 stuff showing. So there wouldn't be a let down for some. the gameplay was really awesome.

Uninformed faggots reporting stuff. That is, why so many bad games are actually not rated bad. Mass consumer oriented doesnt mean, you can just left out the knowledge skill completely.
I understood you...I just wanted to clear the point, that there wasnt even ANY real delay, that was not forseeable, that wasnt having a good reason, that people simply didnt get or that was even planned up to the will of the comnmunity to spend more time instead of rushing. 80% of the community agreed on the decision to take more time and get stuff right, before actually punping out content. And to be honest: Most of what they did only helps that stuff to come out faster in the future. If the groundwork is setup right and nothing is cheated, you can simply put out content easier later on. And as they said: This game is planned to be WoW in space in terms of longivity. And if they would have rushed, we would see content a lot less quick. The procedural tech jumped in as logical consequence to make planets faster, more realistic in size, etc.
We would also could have autolanding sequence into a landing zone....no free fly over planets AT ALL. If we would agree with those people, who claim the slow progress, we would never see any planetary interaction. Why, because rewriting after everything is in, is a hilariously dumb thought.
And Chris and his team is really digging it! They dont cheat on stuff and really try to tackle every possible aspect in every possible gamefeature and make it systemic, so that content later can come out quickly and that there are no big engine overhauls with massive floods on bugs is necessary.
So, they can even take 4-.5 more years, if you ask me. In such a game with such a goal and so much to do, it really better is right....otherwise it dies.
Welcome to the "you know" show! Nah, all jokes aside, you guys are great! SC is something very special. Looking forward to the future!
Lots of information! :o Thanks!!! oh and.. Just Do It!
Like Knights of the round table.
I absolutely loved this! Every single one these guys are so super interesting, the genuine passion from every single one of them is amazingly surreal.
Sean Tracy should be there though lol, he is also hugely passionate about all this.
Tony Zurovec is my fave though. He is basically the lead designer on how the entire PU will mesh together. No wonder he gets somewhat confuddled constantly saying what he does
I remember watching a video that was probably made back in 2012, where CR talked about a network architecture that would not have shards, but where instances would be dynamic, and could divide or merge, depending on the number of players trying to inhabit a given amount of virtual space. It sounds like that has now gone by the wayside, but it was an intriguing concept and I'd have liked to have seen it realized.
It's now resolved to "mesh servers".
Awesome guys, we love you keep up the great work!
good inside into game development thx guys for all the hard work and i cant wait for more content , see ya in the verse ;)
No Sean Tracy? Preorder cancelled.
Careful Chris you cant make the game so good that your staff will want to just sit down and play it all day ;). Jokes aside you guys seem so excited I know this project will turn out well!
We need to be able to join the sand nomad faction ;)
I honestly just want to strip them of their armor and weapons and leave them bleeding on the sand......
I wanna defend them from The Arsenal Gamer and leave him bleeding on the sand . . . .
People are upset about citizen con and they don't realize that citizen con is all about the community and not the game. Sure they were rushing to get things ready and were unable to complete the parts they wanted to show but again I think about the hard work, late hours, and stress the teams have when trying to put together a good show for the community. I say who cares about the game at this community-centered event. This should be the only event where the devs and the community get to enjoy each others company. We get weekly updates on the game and tech constantly to where anything extra at citizen con is just a nice bonus. We will continue to see progress towards SM and S42 in weekly updates we get. I see people all the time say that the teams need a break from working hard all the time and what better time then citizen con for them to enjoy a community of star citizens. IMO the reaction of some in the community brings undue stress to the team during such an upbuilding event that was focused on everyone in this community.
is 50:20 a hint that squadron 42 will come out before 3.0? Forgive me if they've already disclosed that, but in my mind is was 2.6(Nov) -> 3.0(Dec) -> S42(early 2017).
If 2.6 comes out in November, it's almost impossible that we get 3.0 in December; probably around march i'll say :P
3.0 won't be december. It's more realistic to expect it at some point in Q1 of 2017.
2.6 and 3.0 are developed independetly from eachother though so 3.0 is still possible for december.
or 2.6 will be released on October, but as PTU )
shijaschka right, then we'd get 2.6 live around November
Gah, you know, this stuff is so awesome you know. I really can't wait till the further along parts come out you know. Thanks for talking about all of this you know.
"you can be my wingman" aww the feels...
To all the people saying they are taking too long on making the game I think the creators should take their time because we want them to create a quality game if you rush then we are gonna get an alright product and everyone's gonna complain and moan.
thanks for the hard work developers! :D
At last - I was hoping for this at 10pm my time
This is awesome, MASTER MINDS!!!!
Great Video!
These guys are awesome... Release 3.0 soon!!! "Just DO IT!!"
YES! That is a great show!
They actually have a picture of the BMM... They have not forgotten.
feeling good about that profile picture?
+Nick871203 game aside its a pretty good logo
Nick871203 Eh I am to lazy to change it. So sure I feel great as I don't care :p
Alpha 3.3
XxTheProElitexX Not entirely true. The studio has a big retaliator model directly behind the cast, dead center of every scene, and it's been a while since anything has been talked about. They gathered data over the summer, a list of fixes and changes the community would like to see for the retaliator. Many of us believe that info was used to build the Polaris, since it's damn near the same thing, most fixes we listed were used. They just made the ship three times bigger. People are pretty salty over it, since no word has been given officially about what happened to the info we gave them or what it was used for. Last communication from a Q&A rep was in may. Besides the one in July saying it's out of his hands and has no idea what's going on.
Just because they have a concept picture up, doesn't mean anything. Bmm= 2018
100's of likes, a dozen dislikes, within minutes of an 1:20:04 video coming up...
Colt Martin You made this comment 3 hours after the video was published...
I fail to see your point? I noticed when I stopped it half way through to do the dishes.
Colt Martin 40 minutes isnt just minutes. its over half an hour. You make it look like you were here in first 5 minutes.
I wasn't exactly keeping track... I stopped it significantly less than than halfway, but I didn't know there was going to be a pop-quiz or I'd have taken notes of the exact time and numbers.
you know what they say. In order to avoid criticism and enemies, simply don't exist.
I enjoyed that, I do wish they'd covered more about their SQ42 woes, but roll on 3.0
Jesus just shhhh Chris Roberts let the Chambers speak
mrzazzaable Yeah, Chris has a bad habit of wanting to explain in more detail what someone is talking about. I think it's a personal tic that he probably has a hard time controlling. I know I do it myself sometimes, and even when I know I'm doing it I occasionally can't stop it. Very irritating for me, personally.
How can i support star citizen? just buying game or a ship? like it so much!!! i will buy 42 squad right now.. 1 week seeing all concerning SC. Simply amazing! keep the job High!
You need to buy game to play. Squadron 42 is single player campaign. Star Citizen is MMO. Each game is $45. You can get both for $60. The game is all you need to play. You don't need to buy additional ships. All ships can be acquired in-game in Star Citizen using in-game money.
i buy it.. now downloading! thanks !!
I wanna buy this game, but I want a full release...Can.t wait to get into it..!!
Lmao CIG trolling us all with the Banu Merchantman art on the back-right wall.
25:18 We have shards now? The Gem of Immortality has been shattered! A traveler from the stars has slain Mondain and freed us from his Tyranny! Huzzah!
Awesome video guys! Are we able to interact with the environment ? Like destroying trees, rocks, buildings like in the original Crysis?
They once mentioned they shot up some trees in some internal build.
Hopefully this feature stays, it's pretty critical when you get a huge universe like this that it's not all static meshes.
"The Polaris, the ship everyone was excited about" - Yeah Ben? Everyone was like "We want you to make the Tali feel even more neglected by your Dev team, give us a torpedo capital ship!
GTFO
--------------------------------
Outside of that, this was an awesome RTV!
ya' know...
I know, y'know
omg it bugged me so bad
god the captions at 38:53, [waves hands expansively above head]
This was awesome! Guess it's a one way ticket back on the hype train!,
Nice fucking awesome ! Greatest man in the videp games reunited in one room :O
Hmmm... Erin Roberts talks at 50:30 About AI and tells us we see/play the first iteration with them in 3.0. then he stops for a second and says that we see it also in sq42... the way he says or better the way he corrects himself there keeps me thinking: "maybe sq42 isnt really that far away we all thought after directly after citizen con... maybe, maaaaybe erin thinks we could possibly see or play sq42 before or around the release date of 3.0..."
o.O
Eric Kieron is such a top bloke
38:26 turn on subtitles
tks, very informative.
I so understand Brian at 1:02:07 .. i had exactly the same face at that point
39:53 This hypes me
HIS FACE. "AVOCADOS" OMG i just died hahahahaha
best RTV ever 😊
Need another one of these
Pod racing would be amazing on planets !!! And VR support :O
BenVP is back 🤗
Honestly, this whole RtV should really have been about them DELIVERING on their broken promises, not about painting even more tech dreams people can simply not rely on any more to be delivered on time (if ever).
rolf ski RTVs are always Q&As, ATVs are the big displays of what they've done.
Skaianet
But this is a special edition and people really want to know about delivering SQ 42.
+rolf ski CIG was planning to show SQ42 stuff at CitizenCon but couldn't get it in so I wonder if they will be showing that stuff soon.
rolf ski yea and from what I understand the ATV Citcon Special is gonna be tomorrow. So if there's anywhere they'll show SQ42, it's there
no not really, only if Chris thinks it was a really big deal, and it might still not be finished. Also i think its waaay more likely we see the SQ42 demo mission on the anniversary livestream or the christmas livestream than on a regular ATV. This ATV will probably feature some stuff of the homestead demo and some spectrum stuff. Maybe some more about 2.6 who knows but i wouldnt hope for the SQ42 mission.
this is the moon landing of games
those are some fancy-ass tables
Y e aquí los capos de CIG! los 5 Magníficos, los putos amos!!
you know!
10:44 what is the ship in the first poster on the left above the two guys?
Anvil Carrack
i.ytimg.com/vi/-cAOLoX1K6U/maxresdefault.jpg
is "Ya know" a bug or a feature?
BEN IS BACK!!! :D
We also called Eve Online's new user portal/communication system (built on the same base IIRC) "SpaceBook".
The machines for the CitizenCon Demo had 64gb RAM!? Holy moly...
Amazing stuff, thanks guys! +42 #StarCitizen4Life
spectrum is going to be so cool.
