One of the hardest parts about adjusting to new gameplay, will be how much more involved it is, over the convenient placeholders and shortcuts we've been used to.
In 2023 CIG figured out how to walk, this year they are starting to run. its a great time to be alive with star citizen thanks for the updates as always
Regretfully we heard and thought the same multiple times already in the past. Yet CIG had always found a shiny new tech to wait with gameplay development for.
@NightNord my opinion will change rapidly if there is something else beyond dynamic servermeshing that they now need. But this has been 'the thing' since 2018. Genuinely, they have nothing more to hide behind. Sq42 is in polish so man power isn't an issue anymore either. And servermeshing is being tested in evo now. And it's functionally working. Which is better than what could be said for PES last year. A lot of people didnt think we'd have meshing at all this year saltemike included. I think you are being too cynical, but I don't blame your stance. I simply hope you are wrong.
@@Leptospirosi Could be! Seems like a fancy design with the fender and the light. ( Although the g12 concept photo had the fender on top so who knows!)
I think the auto / manual loading thing is GOOOD i mean some people cant be botherd to load a ship, but now we can make a choice and ye bit of profit loss is ok with me i mean hell i like loading unloading so xD
Home hangars are going to be the biggest disappointments to many folks from the promises of 2012. I mean, they never made sense since in the intended galaxy-wide scope the travel times from your home hangar to where you might actually be active would be crazy amounts for travel time anyway.
I truly believe that adding a small vehicle lift in the personal hanger would be a better option than using the entire hangar to summon a small vehicle. Perhaps one similar to the cargo elevator that's on the sides of the hangars
I believe the intent is to be able to summon ground vehicles on the cargo elevator but they weren't able to get that in on time for the initial release so summoning ground vehicles via the ship elevator is a temporary workaround
Any hope of this becoming a viable MMO is very much at risk because of the existence of whales. On day 1 of a no-wipes-ever-again live with a game economy, whales (and their orgs) will be running ships like the Hull-E, Idris, and Orion 24/7 at near peak efficiency. They will gain millions if not billions of UEC within a week of launch and will completely dominate, and likely ruin the economy. Bear in mind that many whales have been purchasing the weekly limit of UEC constantly - many will start the game as multi-millionaires - enough to fully upgrade and ensure their fleet. How can the Devs possibly manage this? How do they build an economy and player world without this just totally ruining it for everyone who didn't spend BMW money on a video game??
Oh, and let's not mention that because many of these whales already have a large and active org, they will be near-unassailable in PvP, as their ships will be escorted with top of the line fully-upgraded fighters. I feel that the only challenge that could be mounted against them would be another whale org. I fear that a ton of content in this game will be functionally locked out to common players because of this. You may see a system where the only way you experience it is at the pleasure of a whale's org. To make matters worse, many of these whales are streamers. You know how THAT goes. If SC becomes really popular, Asmongold is going to come in and one thing we know about that dude - you do NOT want him in your MMO.
I'mma call it. This is the homestretch. It's still a long stretch, but we are now finally in the era where this goes from a fun tech demo to a serious game. SQ is pretty much locked in and just needs the final touches which requires a smaller team, and more resources are finally being redirected to SC along with many of the features that til now were in SQ42. And of course, with actual server meshing (and considering this is pretty much tier 0) finally being put in and actually working at this scale, I think it's safe to call it. I at least have a feeling this time next year it's going to at least finally be a game more casuals can enjoy daily, and I can finally feel confident talking people into joining the project, but 1.0 still is at least 3 years away, but definitely more.
I've been watching stuff about this game since someone told me about it back in ~2012/2013. I've just built a PC and have finally been able to play it. There are lots of bugs and some frustrating lack of QoL features, but I've only had the game crash once in about 50-70 hours of gameplay. I've seen far worse from fully "finished" games (a very low bar these days, I know). I'm having so much fun, I've done mining, attempted bunker raids, getting into salvage, and haven't even touched dog-fighting or racing yet. I've played with other people a bit and had a blast so far. I'm excited to see where these next few years go.
At 15:23 he said the ship has to be stored to allow the transfer of commodities. What about at an outpost? Sounds like we have to load/unload our ships at these places.
I would guess we will see elevators on the landing pads like for hangars. After all the have to store their goods somewhere. lawless outpost, like distilleries and some mine, will certainly require manual loading, rendering smsll ships more practical.
Why does everybody think your hangar won't be able to change until a new patch? That's a frankly very silly assumption to make. They make it very clear they have a method for determining your largest owned ship. The obvious conclusion is that function runs every time your entitlements change (ship added to 'inventory'). They went out of their way to build an entire new elevator for ships and modify all of the hangars accordingly, just so they can make sure ship swapping is seamless, why do you not expect them to have invested the literal 30 minutes that it takes for the "what size hangar do you need" function to be made to run every time your entitlements change? 😂 As somebody that has worked in the industry I would unironically bet any of you $1k cash that if you buy a bigger ship than your persistent hangar can allow, then they just move your ship to your inventory (that was placed in the hangar's zone area) and give you a new, bigger hangar 😂 You think they're going to add in these changes to the hangars, without having thought AT ALL about what happens if somebody buys a new, bigger ship during gameplay? When that is basically the only real thing to progress towards, at all, in this stage of alpha? 🤣🤣🤣They've done ALL THIS WORK on hangars, and they haven't thought about the very logically simple process of upgrading your hangar entitlement when you buy a big ship? What? 🤣Anybody that genuinely thinks that is frankly a goof ball, to be completely honest with you.
Don't forget that you may have "decorated" your hangar and placed all sorts of items in various places around the hangar. However, this should be fairly easy to deal with if your hangar gets upgraded to a larger size, as it should be pretty simple to code the game to just automagically move all of those items back into your master inventory. Yea, you'll have to summon the items again and manually place them where you want them again, but I don't see that as that much of a big deal.
For me 3.23 was the big update I was waiting for and kind of still is, but after playing for literally hours the other day in a 30fps server for the first time albeit a quiet one, experiencing the game actually WORKING was just the cream... add in player counts in multiples of 100's maybe 1000's makes server meshing my biggest want over anything. The main reason I stop playing is the jankyness, and the 30ks. It just makes me feel tired when I start playing when the game is constantly borked. That 30fps server finally gave me a glimpse of what things should be like.
MIKE is the COOL ADE and COPIUM Master World CHAMP !! did u hear that? .." it was UNPLAYABLE , and i was so HAPPY " i need that stuff that he smokes.. ASAP .-.
11:44 Soooo... This gives them an opportunity to start to make locations unique again. They removed Crusader's tall atmosphere that made it feel unique and made it a real decision as to when and why you went there.. and now Crusader feels just like any other location really. So one thing that might make locations unique again would be something like Hurston item banks... disallowing any firearms or ammo. lol That sounds like a pain in the ass... and in a way.. it's supposed to be. But remember.. you will have access to those less than savory areas beneath the city. So smuggling weapons.. will actually FEEL like smuggling weapons.
The ships are not disappearing. When around a moon, the split between the two server instances is where you enter/exit the moon entity border. Just like in the game as it is now, Moon and Planet entities are rotating, so when you exit the Moon entity and enter another server, the ship is moving so extremely fast that it looks like it disappears. I tried doing the same test in a C2 with a Pisces inside, but flying straight up from OM1, leaving my C2 inside the Moon's entity layer and flying out with my Pisces and I could see the C2 begin to move away from me. When I have time to make a video and combine some of the clips, I will.
@@SaltEMike True, but I did find it hard to get exactly to the pole area. Even when flying as straight out as I could from OM1, my C2 still slowly creeped away until it got so far away that it picked up speed as usual. But it was a really fun test where I also could shoot my C2 from one server to the other, but I couldn't target it.
Rule #1 for heading/subjects of articles/videos online. If it ask's a question, assume the answer is NO. This has been true for decades and usually holds true. To all the people still holding onto hope this will generate into a real "game" are part of your Stockholm syndrome. You are being abused by RSI. Seek help. STOP GIVING MONEY to RSI if you want results!
I have extensive experience on the subject. This will be vaporware in 10 years, unless Datacenter resources become cheaper (they wont), bandwidth increases 10 fold (they wont) and compression increases 5 fold (it wont). PIPE DREAM
First of all, appreciate You Mike for bringing us Week in review!!! Now I dont want to sound salty...but as we were not waiting and using lotsa time on doing nothing but waiting, until we do something fun, and was always happy with being able to quickly go into local inventory, now we also have to click and pray, and use extra time for local inventory.....I think that this sucks! yeah yeah, lets wait and see how it actually will work ingame....still I just think we use anough time on waiting and doing nothing. Sorry but I am not positive about this even on Xtra Copium/Hopium!
No it's not becoming a MMO till the fix the game and finish all the supporting game to even deal with a couple hundred players.. Imagine sharing broken hangers with 4-5x the amount of players. Just imagine.
Very excited to see the progress. I've bought a mustang for 45 bucks 2 years ago, (i know its a sub par choice but its the one i wanted to fly lol) haven't got to fly it yet because my computer can't handle SC. Some day we will and SC keeps looking better!
The Item Banks really disappoint me. So many games use an inventory screen, and they should really stick to that. Of course given how poorly they've implemented inventory, maybe the Item Banks will be an improvement.
I hope in the future we can set home hangers to different places like stations. I mostly play around crusader but I hate going down to orison since the fps is bad there. It would be cool to have a hangar at grimhex. It would be cool if we could sell hangars or buy new ones at different locations in the future. Its definitely going to make me think of where I set my home location next wipe.
Star Who ? I'm just keep forgetting about this game actually being made. Even tho it's never going to be released, it's a good investment to sell copium and hype.
Usually come here for a real take. I was watching Olli yesterday, and he literally does not know how to criticise, only compliment lol. He called not being able to target someone across servers "epic and amazing" I think that guy is a little broken.
is years i whait a good time for come back...always time i check...toons of things stay for been add...like always... and state is unplayable..nothing new i start think is a policy a strategy...like gov do...speak of smoke...becouse u cant speak of what happening.. lol
looks like a bike wheel, my guess is straight above 90 degrees. looks like tire tread, but lighting seems to throw off colors so it doesn't quite look like rubber. like the bike i preordered a little. I'm guessing, I'll update once i look at the actual picture
Cargo upgrades are great in theory but if I can't run a simple box mission without the box falling through the floor or bouncing out through the roof, what's the fucking point?
i'm not a huge fan of item banks adding an extra step in the form of having to loot a box then equip. would be great to just equip right from the terminal screen. Seems like it's adding two new layers of friction for item recovery in this design.
An important question is will I be allowed to land at my personal hangar with a crime stat... Its MY personal hangar but at a location you usually cant land at with a CS??
I've tried multiple times trying to enjoy these videos.. and honestly I can't get over how negative sounding you get. It's been the same very negative vibe for many years. Still no fan
Been playing this game since day one and I still dont think its ready for anything. The most easy way to know this, just pay attention to the NPCs at every station, they still pile up in big groups, they still stand in areas not really intended for NPCs to be located and the list goes on and on beyond the NPCs.
Started couple days ago and man it's just hard and takes alot of time and save yourself some pain and don't bother with box missions they don't work half the time
With the hanger being the size of your largest ship if that includes the ones that are not ingame yet my hanger should be very large with an Orion but how would that work with it being a none planet ship.😂
can't wait to see how many times my ship blows up or i get stuck entering the pilot seat if they ever get variable/different avatar sizes implemented lol
they should rethink this ship spawning system. it should be possible to select several vehicles and call them on the same platform, ground vehicles and ships at the same time
Its better if they let you have the large hangar right away no matter the ship size. It feels a bit shady with any other sullotion cause its basically saying buy a big ship in the online store or miss out. Its Fomo.
I’m trying to get my crew together to play Star Citizen with me. Their biggest issue is the server resets. Is that still a thing, or are we near last reset until release?
Question: What is the point of server mesh exactly? Thats a rethorical question btw. Heres some ideas: single player story mode. Fixing those 20 avatars glitching all over eachother on benches, killing the immersion. scripting all those doors that arent really doors, and those elevators that arent actually elevators. Adding meaning to all those big impressive rooms, that look pretty, but dont look busy, while u cross them for 2minutes just to use a terminal. Improve the interaccion UI. Plus 100 other things, rather then an extreamly, unlikely, server mesh crap, that all it does is connect 200 players, that has too many variables to work well (or at all). in the next 5 years. If it does get functional, then what? 200+ players all together on a messy performance buggy, half non-functional game. Cant wait. Pretty game, cool stuff. But seriously, yall are supporting this useless waist of time. Server meshing 🥱
Cargo auto-loading needs to have a cost that is actually much higher than the cost of the players time. Otherwise it is only going to be a tax, and hurt immersion integrity for nothing
What are you talking about actual truck drivers irl don't even pay to have their own freight unloaded. We don't even know how hard it'll be to earn money when the game hits 1.0 now is not the time to ask them to raise prices
...so there will be wipe for sure for 3.23... I am a bit worried about hangars if one gets bigger ship later in game... Carrack is f-d, there are some other ships that will be hard to play with in this new hangar...
Saying character customizing in a 1st person (it's also a 3rd person, they've said they will make all game modes playable from 1st or 3rd) isn't important is wild. It hasn't been important because it hasn't existed, however, should people be given the option to really build a character, I think this will become one of SC's strong points.
Are you guys hyped for not being able to dodge griefers and lowlifes by hopping servers? Hell yeah, I can't wait! It will make the game so much more enjoyable... for them.
@@SaltEMike “it’s hasn’t happened to me so it’s not a thing” come on Mike, you know better than that. Especially YOU, someone famous in the community with a huge following and a huge org behind you. YOU are telling me you don't have issues? Bruh
The sneak peak looked like some sort of docking collar or maybe just a thruster. Docking collar is a bit more exciting. Imagine being able to join ships in holy matrimony instead of having to EVA across the gap.
the ship firing sideways because you are shooting from void space, into crusader space wich is a different server wich is rotating at XXX km/h, thats why ur projectile are doing this. (assuming there is no bug related to meshing/planet rotation when crossing server )o7

Yea it’s such a weird video, how are missions handled? There are so many questions…
Seems like all these new features are being put on the backburner now... Not a good sign...
Nah evo patch tomorrow is planned for most of the 3.23 features
If the Item Kiosk has a search function, it will be way better than pressing "I".
At least if you have a shitload of stuff.
didnt think of it but the mules that people have will definitely be useful to keep in that personal hangar for loading cargo
So does this mean we'll be able to send refined or to station storage instead of a ship? That'll be pretty sweet.

I'm just keep forgetting about this game actually being made. Even tho it's never going to be released, it's a good investment to sell copium and hype.
Usually come here for a real take. I was watching Olli yesterday, and he literally does not know how to criticise, only compliment lol. He called not being able to target someone across servers "epic and amazing" I think that guy is a little broken.
He seems to not be phased by bugs like that in a first test, a very optimistic guy I assume. But I agree, I come for Mike's balanced takes.
is years i whait a good time for come back...always time i check...toons of things stay for been add...like always... and state is unplayable..nothing new i start think is a policy a strategy...like gov do...speak of smoke...becouse u cant speak of what happening.. lol
I was salty like you when I did the second part of the Overdrive. Hope they spice it up more.
looks like a bike wheel, my guess is straight above 90 degrees. looks like tire tread, but lighting seems to throw off colors so it doesn't quite look like rubber. like the bike i preordered a little.
I'm guessing, I'll update once i look at the actual picture
They need to add more terminals such as at New Deal > Lorville. Otherwise players will be airport queuing to use the facilities.
Cargo upgrades are great in theory but if I can't run a simple box mission without the box falling through the floor or bouncing out through the roof, what's the fucking point?
i'm not a huge fan of item banks adding an extra step in the form of having to loot a box then equip. would be great to just equip right from the terminal screen. Seems like it's adding two new layers of friction for item recovery in this design.
An important question is will I be allowed to land at my personal hangar with a crime stat... Its MY personal hangar but at a location you usually cant land at with a CS??
I never expected 3.23 any sooner than Invictus tbh… if they managed that, I‘d be happy
I've tried multiple times trying to enjoy these videos.. and honestly I can't get over how negative sounding you get. It's been the same very negative vibe for many years. Still no fan
Been playing this game since day one and I still dont think its ready for anything. The most easy way to know this, just pay attention to the NPCs at every station, they still pile up in big groups, they still stand in areas not really intended for NPCs to be located and the list goes on and on beyond the NPCs.
What wait? You don’t cover the conversation about character hight and „bigger“ Bodies in future to the character creator? You don’t watch the QA?
Started couple days ago and man it's just hard and takes alot of time and save yourself some pain and don't bother with box missions they don't work half the time
It's simply not built to scale. Habs, hangars, shops, transport, kiosks, terminals.
Sneak pic is obviously the front right side of a hovertank. Headlight and hovering turbine on screen.
feel like the personal inventory changes will give the back end some breathing room.
With the hanger being the size of your largest ship if that includes the ones that are not ingame yet my hanger should be very large with an Orion but how would that work with it being a none planet ship.😂
thanks Mike for the vid, hope everything is going well for you and your family 👍
Took 12 years to figure out an MMO is the better path
Progress is generationally slow, but hey, i guess better later than never
can't wait to see how many times my ship blows up or i get stuck entering the pilot seat if they ever get variable/different avatar sizes implemented lol
Hey Mike, pretty ancient follower here, what video editing software are you using? Thanks.
I have an editor for week in review, he uses premiere. For the other vids on the channel that I edit for now, I use resolve.
they should rethink this ship spawning system. it should be possible to select several vehicles and call them on the same platform, ground vehicles and ships at the same time
Its better if they let you have the large hangar right away no matter the ship size. It feels a bit shady with any other sullotion cause its basically saying buy a big ship in the online store or miss out. Its Fomo.
Elite fans are laughing? You mean SC fans are laughing at Elite fans as our hanger elevators are 100 times better?
Hey Mike! Great video! I think it's a forklift/warehouse vehicle!
I see the caterpillar still doesnt have the side and front lifts. because CIG has forgotten that's what that ship is suppsoed to have.
for me the biggest is that now we will be able to buy mining bags, so we can farm and drop it there, no need to go and sell it straight away, amazing.
Spawning a ptv golfcart seing it coming up the elevator in a large hangar would be hilarious 🤣
I’m trying to get my crew together to play Star Citizen with me. Their biggest issue is the server resets.
Is that still a thing, or are we near last reset until release?
Sneak Peek: New Hover Quad bike thing.
There needs to be a party and an Org option where an Org member can call up a ship and open the doors in place of an owner of the bay/ship.
Question: What is the point of server mesh exactly? Thats a rethorical question btw. Heres some ideas: single player story mode. Fixing those 20 avatars glitching all over eachother on benches, killing the immersion. scripting all those doors that arent really doors, and those elevators that arent actually elevators. Adding meaning to all those big impressive rooms, that look pretty, but dont look busy, while u cross them for 2minutes just to use a terminal. Improve the interaccion UI. Plus 100 other things, rather then an extreamly, unlikely, server mesh crap, that all it does is connect 200 players, that has too many variables to work well (or at all). in the next 5 years. If it does get functional, then what? 200+ players all together on a messy performance buggy, half non-functional game. Cant wait.
Pretty game, cool stuff. But seriously, yall are supporting this useless waist of time. Server meshing 🥱
I wonder if the old hangars are ever coming back with persistent hangars in the future
I remember thinking 8 years was generous for dev time for this ... yikes.
Pretty sure that new ship is the Misc Raptor. Would line up with the other hints they gave and the deep dived info.
I'm thinking that unknown image was an attachment point for the removeable ore bags
Ofcourse ED fans are laughing, their game is a joke. 😀
I do want to know what ship gets what hangar cuz i want to have one but idk what ship gets lsrge or xl hangar
Dynamic crosshair is terrible, who thought this was a good idea?
automatic loading in the hangar is great but how does it work with the hull c,d,e?
I can see this game probably what 30 years out? yea about right
The fact that people have to wait in line for ASOPs is so cringe.
IDK why we worried about reputation.. they dont react as it is.
Funding through cosmetics over funding through ships !
I see your likes are skyrocketing, Mike...or perhaps I'm just tuning-in later than usual. Either way - bravo and keep up the good work.
Just a vid that did ok, but it is exciting
Star citizen is the test... the resf is just tests for the test to make the whales feel special.
The sneak pic is the Misc Raptor, a jetpack
Really? That’s awesome!!! Star citizen has needed jet packs so that’s really cool! o7
Wow. 12 years and by the looks of it give it another 20 years boi
Spotted a Starcitizen_refund cult member 😂
Cargo auto-loading needs to have a cost that is actually much higher than the cost of the players time. Otherwise it is only going to be a tax, and hurt immersion integrity for nothing
What are you talking about actual truck drivers irl don't even pay to have their own freight unloaded. We don't even know how hard it'll be to earn money when the game hits 1.0 now is not the time to ask them to raise prices
...so there will be wipe for sure for 3.23... I am a bit worried about hangars if one gets bigger ship later in game... Carrack is f-d, there are some other ships that will be hard to play with in this new hangar...
Looks better than ED, I’m in!
A tractor beam module?? Great review also!
What a fucking awesome pain in the arse this game is ❤
you should cosplay Gordon Freeman...
Just to verify, personal hangars are coming in 3.23?
Yep.
Saying character customizing in a 1st person (it's also a 3rd person, they've said they will make all game modes playable from 1st or 3rd) isn't important is wild. It hasn't been important because it hasn't existed, however, should people be given the option to really build a character, I think this will become one of SC's strong points.
Are you guys hyped for not being able to dodge griefers and lowlifes by hopping servers? Hell yeah, I can't wait! It will make the game so much more enjoyable... for them.
If you are worried about this all the time…that’s a you problem I think. I show my screen for nearly 100% of my gameplay and rarely have an issue.
@@SaltEMike “it’s hasn’t happened to me so it’s not a thing” come on Mike, you know better than that. Especially YOU, someone famous in the community with a huge following and a huge org behind you. YOU are telling me you don't have issues? Bruh
The sneak peak looked like some sort of docking collar or maybe just a thruster. Docking collar is a bit more exciting. Imagine being able to join ships in holy matrimony instead of having to EVA across the gap.
Calling it now, beta in 10 years.
16:31 "It's a character customizer in a first person game" Mike, you can change your camera to third person on the fly, AND mirrors exist. Lmao
I was 100% sure this wasn't a tire in the leak, but now I'm nearly 100% sure it IS a tire. Either way I have no idea what I'm talking about. Gib ship.
the ship firing sideways because you are shooting from void space, into crusader space wich is a different server wich is rotating at XXX km/h, thats why ur projectile are doing this.
(assuming there is no bug related to meshing/planet rotation when crossing server )o7
The only good thing about Monday! WEEK IN REVIEW BABY. Good shit Mike!
