2024 for that ship is hilariously ambitious. You're right about there needing to be better transparency on the website. I have more concerns about the ships, but your idea is 100% valid and really needs to be added tbh.
I definitely get it... but even if they add an "ETA 2024" you know people will have a meltdown if it doesn't appear then, or gets bumped back, or some other ship gets prioritized before it. CIG is kind of in a lose if you do and lose if you don't situation.
Anyone looking to buy their first starter ship during this IAE, definitely get the Cutter, they didn't discount the Aurora and Mustang like they usually do, so the Cutter starter pack is at the same price as those 2 and provides way more gamplay options .
I bought it today as my first starter. Have to wait until later in the week to download and play since I'm out of town for work. I'm coming from ED and SC (even with all of it's issues) looks absolutely amazing.
@@jjsemperfi I would have gone with an avenger as a starter. The guns on it allow you to do bounties better. And I think they're gonna nerf the quantum drive on the cutter... Lol. I'm trying to get into ED as well. I have a anacoda and a cutter just sitting which look like the new cap ship in SC btw. Another big learning curve is impeding me on ED. Hell just getting money transferred in ED is a huge pain in the ass for a noob. However what I like about ED is the stability. It runs fast and is fairly solid. And they just released a new big patch. And people are leaving ED and making the game even more stable lol. Maybe I'll try a low paying close mission on my night off to finally get into it...
Speaking of Hitman... have you seen last year's CitizenCon and the one prior? CIG intends for us to be able to approach missions in multiple ways... Stealth, guns blazing, barter, etc. The stealth option encourages you to go undetected crawling though vents, doing melee takedowns, hacking and, in Hitman fashion, grabbing uniforms of NPCs to blend in/dodge security, etc.
Just so you know my friend, the Polaris is not only going to be larger than it currently says, but there's likely to be some changes on parts of the ship. Good news is this week's Star Citizen Video told us we're getting some updates next week on the Polaris which I'm hyped about.
Yeah its going to be really cool 5 years from now when you can finally fly it. Oh by the way it will be in the exact same size of game that we currently have. Between now and then they will only release more concepts of ships, not actually progress in game development. We need those sheets to look good! So go ahead and drop that $600 on a pixel promise.
Olli, plenty of information on the concept status, they have added more lately. I was told by my father when I was young, "Let the buyer beware", and do your research before buying. Buying a house, car, or spaceship - it applies.
Caveat Emptor The good thing is for 45 dollars you can access the game for the rest of your life. I don't know of any other exchange in the capitalist world that comes close to that value for outlay
Seriously. I have some expensive hobbies but just getting into SC I can't believe how much real world money people spend on it. (I'm assuming he's talking about real world money)
@@DogmaticAtheist ill assume real world as if you buy with real world money it doesnt go away, buying it thru in game currency it can get reset after the game experiences a wipe but im not sure about the expensive game ships even with in game currency
I agree... They should put expected release dates on all the concepts... It's kinda shittay to dangle a concept, take people's money for it, and then have no time limit on fulfilling the pre-purchase... Bottom line, it takes advantage of the game junkies needing the next new ship fix...
Mantis is a Quantum Enforcement Device specialist. 2km range Dampener to prevent target jumping away (this is also present on the Cutlass Blue) and a 20km range Snare (with charge up cooldown) which will Dampener AND rip people out of Quantum if you position it so that the bubble intersects their journey. Amazingly very few Bounty Hunters use it, but it's heavily used by Pirates. Check out Mongrel Squad videos, they show it's use a LOT in live piracy, and they have a Piracy Academy series too :D
I watched a video today that suggested it could take up to 35 years of working hours to actually clear the backlog of promised ships. Now, assuming greater efficiency, bigger team etc going forward, the actual estimate is 8 years give or take which is still way less than 35 but 8 years is still a long time. Every time there's an event, the developers tend to preview new ideas and while that can be exciting I think that time would be better spent on the things they've already promised.

@@eagle_rb_mmoomin_418 yeah I know that but isnt it kind of pointless to buy all that if you're not going to use it for the next 5 years or even longer by then gaming will be different and a lot more interesting if it was me I would just play the game with your starter ship and work your way up that's how I did it and I have quite a bit of ships now. so it's kind of hard to just say write it off as a business expense when it's not going to be used for your business for years to come until I see him do some PvP with crew then I can see it being worth it for a org
Really loving these kind of videos. I myself doesn't have the money nor the PC to have and play this game. But seeing Olli playing it and do commentaries on the game is enough for now. Maybe in the future I can play the game and taste it for my self xD
The Orion's diagonal things you were pointing at are supposed to rotate. Also I've absolutely played the HITMAN games and I love em. lots of npc's and they all have great personality.
Great videos man, Enjoy watching all of them, I agree with you on the concept ships. what you placed in with green righting with the ETA DATE is perfect :) keep up the AWESOME work.
You have no idea how excited I am for this game to come out officially. To see it full of players, each one with their taste in ships and to see how squadrons are made to do all kinds of things. Every time I watch a video of yours, thousands of ideas for ships and plans to do with your friends come to my mind. Incredible videos, incredible video game
New to your channel, so far I like it! Keep up the good work man! By the way, they said in the Q&A that the Perseus isn't designed to ram other ships, even though it looks like it is.
I love the look of the Galaxy, so decided to buy it, then bought 2 modules, cargo and refinery ...Damn another carrack in my list till it actually gets released. Keep up the awesome vids always enjoy watching your content.
Imho, CIG shouldn't be releasing new concepts that they know they can't deliver any time soon. Even if the technology required for these ships comes online (and that alone could be years away), simply making a single large ship takes CIG about a year to do. With how many large ships there are, it is going to take CIG decades to work away the current backlog. Releasing new concepts just makes that backlog grow bigger. The Galaxy is nothing but another concept for the big pile of unreleased capital and subcapital concepts and won't be worked on let alone released for many, many years. Some ships have already been on the backlog for over a decade, and being a modular subcapital ship, I doubt the Galaxy will be any different. That is why I didn't get the Galaxy, even though I really like the way it looks. And the reason CIG doesn't add any ETAs to those ship concept pages is because CIG is just as clueless as we are as to when these ships are going to release. There is too many uncertainties involved, and being honest about ships like the Galaxy not going to get released for the next 5-10 years probably would really hurt their sales.
I can't help but feel extra critical of selling modules for unreleased ships. I get the idea of buying the ship but to sell modules for a ship that's unreleased for a feature that's not released that may or may not even work the way they're projecting it might. That's just.. not right. Predatory even.
Something that's interesting me more and more is how the design language and art style has evolved over the years means the earliest ships to be concepted/included in the game are looking more and more out of place, almost as if they belong in a different space game altogether. I think this is especially apparent with the Aurora and Orion, neither of which really screams "RSI" to me at all.
Olli, I live vicariously through you and your Star Citizen videos, I've always been so hyped for this game, and when you mentioned it was free to play until the 30th I set out on a mission to download it on my steam deck, and it's much to my dismay and utter disappointment that I was unable to do so after trying 5 times and even having an expert help me. Please keep producing these videos about this absolutely amazing game, and someday I may even be able to play it as well!
This does happen, but there are sometimes things you can do to help. Firstly you have to have a clean SSD to download it to, a really good CPU, and 32gb ram, when downloading it can help to delete the anti-virus folder, this has helped people with your problem in the past at my direction, so it might work for you
By the way, I think RSI is hogging all the popular iconic ship features in its design language. The arrow shape, the angularity, the nacelles, the round glass bridge on the exploration connie, the X-wing Scorpius... The Galaxy totally looks like a Star Destroyer (or two of them sandwiched together, lol). My guess is that Chris wants the manufacturer carrying his name to draw in all the people with all the pop references available 😃
@@jake3523 Yeah, correct. I'm a fan. I feel like I'm looking at an old Citroen when looking at an Origin ship. It's archetypical, but I do not feel like I am watching any particular popular SF movie. Could be wrong, but nothing comes to mind.
Look up other videos of the Orion. The portion of the ship you were complaining about are actually 3 separate refined goods storage spindles that rotate about the ship's centerline. I'm guessing that once one area is filled with refined goods, they cycle to the next for loading. Whether they constantly rotate is up for debate. If that were the case and Newtonian physics is at play, they would have put an even amount of spindles and alternated the direction of rotation. There are videos and gifs out there with the spindles in steady rotation, but I believe these involved speculation.
I'm holding off on any more modular ships having both the Endeavor and Carrack until they get one working. I'd rather see the game mechanics added first. Example, pick up a cheaper Expanse for refining gameplay and see what it's like. Vulcan for repair gameplay, we already have Carrack, Red, C8R for medical. We have plenty of fighters, plenty of gunships, we need the gameplay loops. I know PES is a big foundational step 3.18, as is Server Meshing next with multi system jump points coming. I'm going to focus on the next playable loop ship, Vulture is already in the hangar.
Completely agree with you Olli. Transparency of concept ship releases / in development progress would ease a lot of people's gripe with CIG for this and the whole FOMO
13:30 the ETA idea is great except it would require CIG to update the ETA's as they get pushed back and all it takes is a cursory look around the RSI website to see that updating the website is NOT something CIG knows how to do. the Corsair webpage still features all concept art that doesn't reflect the Corsair's final design and several pages for flight-ready ships say they're still in concept
I really wish my PC can run this work of art :( I love as well Elite:Dangerous and it is satisfying to play but this seems like another really authentic experience, I'm fascinated with this game 😍
The fuselage is built so that the containers rotate around it, I would guess to use laws of mass like a centrifuge or something? But that’s why it’s round. And it looks so cool! But hey maybe someday we can customize our ships to degrees we can’t imagine now. But who knows. Haha fun vid^ ^
Hey Ollie43 I have been watching your vids quite a bit lately and I noticed that when you are in ship combat you are just locking on to the ship and firing. I just wanted to tell you in the targeting options in keybindings you can bind sub targeting back and forward so you can switch between the ships components like weapons and thrusters so you can blow off the enemy ships thrusters and stop them dead in space, might give you an idea for a vid i'de like to see how you get on with that much love for the vids man don't stop making them its fun to watch someone thats got the same views on the game as me.
I kinda see where you are coming from with the ETA, but I don't think the Average Joe that's unaware of how things are is going to drop near £500 on a ship
Started watching your vids about a week ago and by far one of my fav content creators for SC , I ended up pledging and getting the starter ship the same week 🤣🤣, wish I would have found out about the codes before I made my account though but keep up the great work man ! P.S anyone tryna donate 5 aceu to Dokage 🤣
They can't put eta's on the concept ship's because they cannot possibly have any idea when they will even start on it. I think it was Morph or Erad that just in the last couple days did a video on how long it would take to simply catch up with the current concept ships. If you take the fact that the developer said himself that it takes the entire ship team 12 to 15 months to complete a single ship you are looking with CIG's current staff 21 years to complete all the ships currently in concept. That is without more being announced in that time.
@@DarkdragonKev there are at least 10 capital size ships that aren’t finished so that’s at least 10 years of work. That’s what’s concerning to me. I am a huge fan of this game but I’m worried the back log is going to keep building to the point they will never be able to catch up. They need to focus on finishing the ships people have already purchased. It is a little frustrating to see straight to flyable ships before working on the ships they sold 5 years ago.
Lately i get a bit mad about CIG constantly making new ships. I would prefer if they would focus more on the actual gameplay loops than some shipts without a purpose (because of said gameplay loop)... I would be totaly okay if there would be no ship relesead for the next 2-3 years. (Personal opinion. Don't get mad if you are a ship collector who doesn't care about gameplay...)
Hey Oli, while not as good as what you want, if you look at the paragraph under the picture and contents of any package, it does say that the ship isn't in game and will only be added in a later patch, which is still too vague, I agree, but it's something. They also explain what's a game package and what isn't and also mention the loaner you get. In your instance, for the Galaxy, you get a Carrack loaner, which is actually incredible for anyone as that's the most utilitarian ship in the game from my perspective. The big issue people had with modularity and the concept pipeline is that some of these ships have been in development for 9 years. That's not some time to wait, that's enough time for peoples lives to be different. Anyways, I enjoy your vids and if you break it up, maybe doing a details hunt on ships would be sweet. Maybe next year rent all the ships and give a walk around on a planet with some lighting so you can interact and not suffer lag from too many players in your vicinity.
I had the RSI Launcher in the background and i was amazed about the music you put in your Video and after that i realized that it was the Launcher music xD But i love your video without the music too
That Orion pic has been my sesktop since I brought the ship, and I refuse to change it until the Orion comes out, I've had it as my desktop wall paper for 2 years already..
A couple clarifications for you from your video. The Perseus, is not meant to be used to ram other ships. That was just a marketing image. Not an implication of use and was actually clarified in the Perseus Q&A: "People speculate that this ship will be able to ram enemy ships, as seen in one of the concept-art images. Is this the plan? Will the front feature heavy-duty armor? The concept art depicts the Perseus moving through the wreck of a hammerhead after destroying it, not actually ramming it. Like other ships, it’s capable of it but it’s not recommended nor designed to do so." As for the Orion, when you were asking about the round collar near the boxes. The reason it's round, is because those boxes rotate around the ship. Each row of boxes alternating their rotation direction. So if the front row rotates the clockwise, the middle row will rotate counter-clockwise and the back row, rotating clockwise again. On the RSI site, do a Comm-Link search for the Orion and search the earliest articles. You'll find a small vimeo video in one of them showing those boxes rotating around the ships axis. I can't link it for you, because youtube deletes links in comments.
I think they should just make them in order so we know what ship is getting worked on next, but they just pick random ships to make depending on how much money they need and that's always gonna cause drama
you hear about the word concept when referencing star citizen... Just add 10-20 years for EVERYTHING,.... THEN... When you actually SEE the ship,... It's a surprise and then you can say "oh ok I thought it wasn't coming out till 2953" LMFAO!!!
I just simply dont have the money or time to buy or build a good pc, and this game is something I've wanted since 2020. I simply just wish that I could get the game.
Most of the remaining concept ships required core tech or their main intended gameplay. The modularity on ships required core tech called Persistent Entity Streaming. Basically that's a fast, scalable backend database server. That's coming in 3.18. After that they can possibly extend the cargo refactor to allow for modules. I agree, an ETA would be fantastic but CIG get dates so wrong there's no way that wouldn't enrage people. I think linking data from the roadmap or saying it's not even scheduled on the roadmap would be more accurate. Still better, reduce concepts (they already have if you compare to 2016 and earlier sales) or remove them entirely. CIG need to pay their bills, so if you need to do any concept sale have an SLA (service level agreement) that says you will try to release these ships 18 months after a concept sale. So it's in production or will be shortly.
Bought the game yesterday with the Drake cutter. My god what a broken mess but it’s beautiful and amazing when it works right. Definitely a steep learning curve. my 2060 ryzen 7 runs it quite okay but definitely install it on an SSD.
Aren't they supposed to be the main cargo pods that other ships can take and offload while the Orion keeps going? On top of that I think CIG said it needs to grow as well and that is part of the reason they need another mining ship between the Mole and it. I'm so happy RSI won that poll
Eventually Olli will realise that CIG will never stop producing ships and ship concepts, and that it’s pointless and incredibly expensive buying every single one. Meantime he’s doing a fine job funding the next year of development of Star Citizen single handedly. Absolutely bonkers but hey.
Yeah I remember doing this when I was new to the game. Now I’m 5 years in. Lol The good news is they are probably a tax write off for him because this is technically his business. At least that’s how it works in the US.
@@KellisonHering Yep, that’s true he has more justification than most. I’ve been very restrained this IAE after getting a little carried away in previous years. Also helpful the Corsair and Galaxy don’t remotely interest me.
Will you also have a timer with those mining ships before the load explodes? Or will there be a refinery on board that you don't have to worry about it?
I believe the asterisk idea is good and should include where the ship is in the pipeline so we can get a better idea of how long it might be until we see it. Ex "ETA Winter 2023 and is subject to change. ___ is currently in greybox/whitebox/final stages until release"
Hey Ollie love your videos u never reply to my comments but I do hope u do read them and the mantis Ollie what it does is it jams players quantum drive and Ollie you didn’t say anything else abt the Corsair giveaway and I’m just wondering if you will
When you go to the Pay for the ship page IT comes out w a Message that says "This is a Concept ship and will not be available for sometime" more or less" You have to Click on that message accepting this before you can Buy it. That New i don't remember seeing that before and I have a Large fleet.
100% agree about the disclaimer. Honestly I would take it a step further and just tell them to not sell things that are "in concept" cause I'm returning too for the first time in 5 years and still see ships in concept that were announced 5+ years ago. That's insane! Meanwhile, my cutlass' storage still kicks me out after i open it and the last update before i left the game the first time it was buggy. Why would I spend another dime on this game when they're the highest crowd-funded game and could have finished years ago if they used that money on having seasoned programmers make the physics instead of interns AND while I'm still waiting for my $100 ship to be fully functional?...okay yea im an angry backlog player lol
I have loved playing star citizen, but sadly it keeps saying “star citizen has stopped running unexpectedly.” I have tried everything and it won’t work. Will just straight up resetting my account it work? I don’t mind if I lose my stuff, please help
I'll buy the Galaxy modules in game or online in the future. i melted a ship and used my new Cutter/LTI token and i had exactly the store credit i needed for the upgrade to the Galaxy. I didn't have a Carrack and i like that ship a lot so I'm happy about that.
Keep in mind that the Orion design is seven years old now, so it predates most of the other RSI designs you see today. I grabbed one during the original concept back in like 2015, and I'm pretty sure that's the same concept pic they had back then. At that time they were more focused on an industrial look, more so than an established RSI look.
I appreciate your thoughtfulness about adding a date, but honestly any date is just another excuse for haters to criticize. Maybe a better thing would be "don't expect before 2024”.
Hey Ollie, I just got star citizen and whenever I open it it keeps restarting my pc, I do have a good pc like rtx 3080 but I know graphics cards don’t mean anything in this game I just want to know how to make it stop so I can actually play the game

Some ships have already been on the backlog for over a decade, and being a modular subcapital ship, I doubt the Galaxy will be any different.
That is why I didn't get the Galaxy, even though I really like the way it looks.
And the reason CIG doesn't add any ETAs to those ship concept pages is because CIG is just as clueless as we are as to when these ships are going to release. There is too many uncertainties involved, and being honest about ships like the Galaxy not going to get released for the next 5-10 years probably would really hurt their sales.
I’ve been looking for a decent star citizen channel exclusively and I found a great channel here. Instantly subscribed. Thank you for the content
I can't help but feel extra critical of selling modules for unreleased ships. I get the idea of buying the ship but to sell modules for a ship that's unreleased for a feature that's not released that may or may not even work the way they're projecting it might. That's just.. not right. Predatory even.
Something that's interesting me more and more is how the design language and art style has evolved over the years means the earliest ships to be concepted/included in the game are looking more and more out of place, almost as if they belong in a different space game altogether. I think this is especially apparent with the Aurora and Orion, neither of which really screams "RSI" to me at all.
Aurora is like a 1990s Celica, Galaxy is like a a2022 Celica. That's all.
Olli, I live vicariously through you and your Star Citizen videos, I've always been so hyped for this game, and when you mentioned it was free to play until the 30th I set out on a mission to download it on my steam deck, and it's much to my dismay and utter disappointment that I was unable to do so after trying 5 times and even having an expert help me. Please keep producing these videos about this absolutely amazing game, and someday I may even be able to play it as well!
I’ve seen others playing sc on steam deck so we at least know it’s been done already
This does happen, but there are sometimes things you can do to help. Firstly you have to have a clean SSD to download it to, a really good CPU, and 32gb ram, when downloading it can help to delete the anti-virus folder, this has helped people with your problem in the past at my direction, so it might work for you
If you never flown the Mantis I highly recommend that you rent it .. get out in space and fire it's EMP .. looks and sounds sooo good.
Finally RSI day. Im definitely going off-roading in the ursa. Loving the daily vids, keep up the great work.
Always love Oli's energy. I always like watching your videos,even if others are covering it too, it's just exciting and fun!
By the way, I think RSI is hogging all the popular iconic ship features in its design language. The arrow shape, the angularity, the nacelles, the round glass bridge on the exploration connie, the X-wing Scorpius... The Galaxy totally looks like a Star Destroyer (or two of them sandwiched together, lol). My guess is that Chris wants the manufacturer carrying his name to draw in all the people with all the pop references available 😃
Origin has a lot of great aesthetic points locked down too, if any thing we should just feel bad for drake. Great ships that are ugly as sin.
The galaxy looks like a light destroyer from star wars it’s uncanny
@@jake3523 Yeah, correct. I'm a fan. I feel like I'm looking at an old Citroen when looking at an Origin ship. It's archetypical, but I do not feel like I am watching any particular popular SF movie. Could be wrong, but nothing comes to mind.
Crusader has some really nice looking ones as well
RSI is the OG ship company. So they're the most likely to have closer to 2022 pop culture design.
Love your videos! You're becoming a veteran at the game. I like how you describe how you're playing.
The subway scene in the begining was awesome. Can you make more of that?
Look up other videos of the Orion. The portion of the ship you were complaining about are actually 3 separate refined goods storage spindles that rotate about the ship's centerline. I'm guessing that once one area is filled with refined goods, they cycle to the next for loading. Whether they constantly rotate is up for debate. If that were the case and Newtonian physics is at play, they would have put an even amount of spindles and alternated the direction of rotation. There are videos and gifs out there with the spindles in steady rotation, but I believe these involved speculation.
that perseus ship looks like it was designed like the military ships in stargate I love it.
I'm holding off on any more modular ships having both the Endeavor and Carrack until they get one working. I'd rather see the game mechanics added first. Example, pick up a cheaper Expanse for refining gameplay and see what it's like. Vulcan for repair gameplay, we already have Carrack, Red, C8R for medical. We have plenty of fighters, plenty of gunships, we need the gameplay loops. I know PES is a big foundational step 3.18, as is Server Meshing next with multi system jump points coming. I'm going to focus on the next playable loop ship, Vulture is already in the hangar.
10:40 the Galaxy looks a little like a Narn Heavy Cruiser. Loved that B5 design.
Completely agree with you Olli. Transparency of concept ship releases / in development progress would ease a lot of people's gripe with CIG for this and the whole FOMO
I really do hope the work on these concept ships. I'm excited for rsi medical ship but there is no sign of that coming
The mantis is an interdiction vessel, meaning it pulls ships out if quantum
Perseus is the one I'm waiting for. It looks dead sexy
100% agree about the need for a notice on a concept sell page letting new people know the expected release date.
13:30 the ETA idea is great except it would require CIG to update the ETA's as they get pushed back and all it takes is a cursory look around the RSI website to see that updating the website is NOT something CIG knows how to do. the Corsair webpage still features all concept art that doesn't reflect the Corsair's final design and several pages for flight-ready ships say they're still in concept
I really wish my PC can run this work of art :( I love as well Elite:Dangerous and it is satisfying to play but this seems like another really authentic experience, I'm fascinated with this game 😍
32gb DDR4 u good
Biggest problem with the Phoenix is the lack of bathrooms in the passenger section.
I agree so much we need to know when ships are coming out before they come out and or show us the ship and when it comes out than we can buy it
Have I missed Ollie's mining videos? It really is my favorite game play, but I'm also a Gen x just now getting into gaming.
The fuselage is built so that the containers rotate around it, I would guess to use laws of mass like a centrifuge or something? But that’s why it’s round. And it looks so cool! But hey maybe someday we can customize our ships to degrees we can’t imagine now. But who knows. Haha fun vid^ ^
Hey Ollie43 I have been watching your vids quite a bit lately and I noticed that when you are in ship combat you are just locking on to the ship and firing.
I just wanted to tell you in the targeting options in keybindings you can bind sub targeting back and forward so you can switch between the ships components like weapons and thrusters so you can blow off the enemy ships thrusters and stop them dead in space, might give you an idea for a vid i'de like to see how you get on with that much love for the vids man don't stop making them its fun to watch someone thats got the same views on the game as me.
I kinda see where you are coming from with the ETA, but I don't think the Average Joe that's unaware of how things are is going to drop near £500 on a ship
Started watching your vids about a week ago and by far one of my fav content creators for SC , I ended up pledging and getting the starter ship the same week 🤣🤣, wish I would have found out about the codes before I made my account though but keep up the great work man !
P.S anyone tryna donate 5 aceu to Dokage 🤣
They can't put eta's on the concept ship's because they cannot possibly have any idea when they will even start on it. I think it was Morph or Erad that just in the last couple days did a video on how long it would take to simply catch up with the current concept ships. If you take the fact that the developer said himself that it takes the entire ship team 12 to 15 months to complete a single ship you are looking with CIG's current staff 21 years to complete all the ships currently in concept. That is without more being announced in that time.
12-15 months for something the size of the Carrack yeah.
@@DarkdragonKev there are at least 10 capital size ships that aren’t finished so that’s at least 10 years of work. That’s what’s concerning to me. I am a huge fan of this game but I’m worried the back log is going to keep building to the point they will never be able to catch up. They need to focus on finishing the ships people have already purchased. It is a little frustrating to see straight to flyable ships before working on the ships they sold 5 years ago.
The back part of the Orion is shaped like that because those parts rotate ;)
Lately i get a bit mad about CIG constantly making new ships. I would prefer if they would focus more on the actual gameplay loops than some shipts without a purpose (because of said gameplay loop)...
I would be totaly okay if there would be no ship relesead for the next 2-3 years.
(Personal opinion. Don't get mad if you are a ship collector who doesn't care about gameplay...)
This is a mad way to show off ships in game, god this is good
Hey Oli, while not as good as what you want, if you look at the paragraph under the picture and contents of any package, it does say that the ship isn't in game and will only be added in a later patch, which is still too vague, I agree, but it's something. They also explain what's a game package and what isn't and also mention the loaner you get. In your instance, for the Galaxy, you get a Carrack loaner, which is actually incredible for anyone as that's the most utilitarian ship in the game from my perspective.
The big issue people had with modularity and the concept pipeline is that some of these ships have been in development for 9 years. That's not some time to wait, that's enough time for peoples lives to be different.
Anyways, I enjoy your vids and if you break it up, maybe doing a details hunt on ships would be sweet. Maybe next year rent all the ships and give a walk around on a planet with some lighting so you can interact and not suffer lag from too many players in your vicinity.
I had the RSI Launcher in the background and i was amazed about the music you put in your Video and after that i realized that it was the Launcher music xD But i love your video without the music too
I want to see the handstand video Olli!
That Orion pic has been my sesktop since I brought the ship, and I refuse to change it until the Orion comes out, I've had it as my desktop wall paper for 2 years already..
I wonder what will be the Galaxys configuration without a module. Or did i miss that?
16:55 the Cargo rotates like a centrifuge.
That was my question too! On the hole viewer its just a big empty space. I think the cargo module should be the base module
Super hyped for Galaxy, though I wish it would have actually shown up as a flyable prototype
A couple clarifications for you from your video. The Perseus, is not meant to be used to ram other ships. That was just a marketing image. Not an implication of use and was actually clarified in the Perseus Q&A:
"People speculate that this ship will be able to ram enemy ships, as seen in one of the concept-art images. Is this the plan? Will the front feature heavy-duty armor?
The concept art depicts the Perseus moving through the wreck of a hammerhead after destroying it, not actually ramming it. Like other ships, it’s capable of it but it’s not recommended nor designed to do so."
As for the Orion, when you were asking about the round collar near the boxes. The reason it's round, is because those boxes rotate around the ship. Each row of boxes alternating their rotation direction. So if the front row rotates the clockwise, the middle row will rotate counter-clockwise and the back row, rotating clockwise again. On the RSI site, do a Comm-Link search for the Orion and search the earliest articles. You'll find a small vimeo video in one of them showing those boxes rotating around the ships axis. I can't link it for you, because youtube deletes links in comments.
The Mantis is an Quantum Interdictor. It can pull you out of Quantum drive and prevent you once out from jumping again.
You should do a video with the inforunners on fix my fleet to go over your current fleet.
I think they should just make them in order so we know what ship is getting worked on next, but they just pick random ships to make depending on how much money they need and that's always gonna cause drama
The extra bars are armor protection w/ reduced visibility. That's why the othe variants have different glass shields.
Firstly as a Perseus owner, The Ship is not Deisgned to "KAMIKAZE" into ships. RSI already stated its not a ramming ship and never will be.
I agree: they need to label these ships that won't be ready for over a year from the concept sale. Great video bruv!
you hear about the word concept when referencing star citizen... Just add 10-20 years for EVERYTHING,.... THEN... When you actually SEE the ship,... It's a surprise and then you can say "oh ok I thought it wasn't coming out till 2953"
LMFAO!!!
@@PhillipLemmon LMFAO LOL LMAO!!!! LOLLERS!!! KEKW! MEGALUL!
I just simply dont have the money or time to buy or build a good pc, and this game is something I've wanted since 2020. I simply just wish that I could get the game.
Mantis pulls people out of Quantum Travel. Also prohibits people from using QT.
very nice 👍 I agree with the transparency
The Mantis is an quantum interceptor, it can pull other ships out of quantum with it's quantum dampener.
I too thought the aurora had fold out wings. In fact one of the main reasons I melted mine was because they didn't.
The mantis deserves its own video I think, especially if there is some PvP event going on
Most of the remaining concept ships required core tech or their main intended gameplay. The modularity on ships required core tech called Persistent Entity Streaming. Basically that's a fast, scalable backend database server. That's coming in 3.18. After that they can possibly extend the cargo refactor to allow for modules.
I agree, an ETA would be fantastic but CIG get dates so wrong there's no way that wouldn't enrage people. I think linking data from the roadmap or saying it's not even scheduled on the roadmap would be more accurate. Still better, reduce concepts (they already have if you compare to 2016 and earlier sales) or remove them entirely. CIG need to pay their bills, so if you need to do any concept sale have an SLA (service level agreement) that says you will try to release these ships 18 months after a concept sale. So it's in production or will be shortly.
Bought the game yesterday with the Drake cutter. My god what a broken mess but it’s beautiful and amazing when it works right. Definitely a steep learning curve. my 2060 ryzen 7 runs it quite okay but definitely install it on an SSD.
I will just buy the modules ingame.. The Galaxy is awesome for the money!
I bought an Orion too and the Container X thing was a convincing point since theyre supose to Rotate wich would look so cool
Aren't they supposed to be the main cargo pods that other ships can take and offload while the Orion keeps going? On top of that I think CIG said it needs to grow as well and that is part of the reason they need another mining ship between the Mole and it. I'm so happy RSI won that poll
Eventually Olli will realise that CIG will never stop producing ships and ship concepts, and that it’s pointless and incredibly expensive buying every single one.
Meantime he’s doing a fine job funding the next year of development of Star Citizen single handedly. Absolutely bonkers but hey.
Yeah I remember doing this when I was new to the game. Now I’m 5 years in. Lol
The good news is they are probably a tax write off for him because this is technically his business. At least that’s how it works in the US.
@@KellisonHering Yep, that’s true he has more justification than most. I’ve been very restrained this IAE after getting a little carried away in previous years. Also helpful the Corsair and Galaxy don’t remotely interest me.
Will you also have a timer with those mining ships before the load explodes? Or will there be a refinery on board that you don't have to worry about it?
The pheonix need the aquilas front. Big difference.
Olli fr got me hooked on a game i cant play cuz my pc cant run it
I believe the asterisk idea is good and should include where the ship is in the pipeline so we can get a better idea of how long it might be until we see it. Ex "ETA Winter 2023 and is subject to change. ___ is currently in greybox/whitebox/final stages until release"
Connie Andromeda is my daily driver in Star Citizen. I have it upgraded with the best engines, shields, weapons, cooler, and power
Mantis/Galaxey cockpit glass should be what the Constellations have.
The Mantis pulls ships out of quantum
If you dont own a carrack but want one buy a galaxy and you get the carrack as a loaner at half the price of a carrack
I brought the galaxy plus the module pack with a cutter and 3 paint pack, well worth trading in the odyssey for all that.
Hey Ollie love your videos u never reply to my comments but I do hope u do read them and the mantis Ollie what it does is it jams players quantum drive and Ollie you didn’t say anything else abt the Corsair giveaway and I’m just wondering if you will
I’m so excited to play once I’m back in the states again.
wish theyd put that half a billion in funding towards completing the game and not random details everyone glosses over
The Aurora wings actually did unfold in the FMVs theyve made in the past. Dont thing they ever have in game tho.
When you go to the Pay for the ship page IT comes out w a Message that says "This is a Concept ship and will not be available for sometime" more or less" You have to Click on that message accepting this before you can Buy it. That New i don't remember seeing that before and I have a Large fleet.
Im happy to say that i am a proud owner of the galaxy😄
Congratulations ;D early christmas for everyone ;D.
100% agree about the disclaimer. Honestly I would take it a step further and just tell them to not sell things that are "in concept" cause I'm returning too for the first time in 5 years and still see ships in concept that were announced 5+ years ago. That's insane! Meanwhile, my cutlass' storage still kicks me out after i open it and the last update before i left the game the first time it was buggy. Why would I spend another dime on this game when they're the highest crowd-funded game and could have finished years ago if they used that money on having seasoned programmers make the physics instead of interns AND while I'm still waiting for my $100 ship to be fully functional?...okay yea im an angry backlog player lol
@olli43 Don't think of it as a $350 Concept ship. Think of it was a $350 Carrack which you get as a free loaner until the ship is released.
I have loved playing star citizen, but sadly it keeps saying “star citizen has stopped running unexpectedly.” I have tried everything and it won’t work. Will just straight up resetting my account it work? I don’t mind if I lose my stuff, please help
I'll buy the Galaxy modules in game or online in the future. i melted a ship and used my new Cutter/LTI token and i had exactly the store credit i needed for the upgrade to the Galaxy. I didn't have a Carrack and i like that ship a lot so I'm happy about that.
In case you hadn't noticed they just showed the updated Polaris and the front is completely fixed, no more struts in front of your view!
Fun fact! It looks like the 400i bike bay skin glitch is fixed!
Keep in mind that the Orion design is seven years old now, so it predates most of the other RSI designs you see today.
I grabbed one during the original concept back in like 2015, and I'm pretty sure that's the same concept pic they had back then.
At that time they were more focused on an industrial look, more so than an established RSI look.
I appreciate your thoughtfulness about adding a date, but honestly any date is just another excuse for haters to criticize. Maybe a better thing would be "don't expect before 2024”.
Hey Ollie, I just got star citizen and whenever I open it it keeps restarting my pc, I do have a good pc like rtx 3080 but I know graphics cards don’t mean anything in this game I just want to know how to make it stop so I can actually play the game
