CitizenCon 2018 | Star Citizen Demo - Gameplay Cut

My updated Gameplay Cut of the High Quality 60fps CitizenCon Keynote Footage of Star Citizen 3.3.5's Hurston & Lorville Gameplay with commentary. I have cut parts that weren't really that informative or long winded to get it under an hour.

Star Citizen is an Open Development Alpha Project that aims to build a First Person MMO Space Sim that covers gameplay in ship & on ground, economy and pretty much anything else you would want. It's built in the StarEngine (a modified Lumberyard Engine). You'll see massive Space Ships that you can fly with friends, land on planets, explore or whatever your way to whatever goal you choose. It's available to try in it's current Alpha State Now & you can help give feedback & influence the direction of the game.
Squadron 42 is the Single Player Campaign of Star Citizen & the Spiritual Successor of Wing Commander. The Idea is the game is maximum pretty and seamless... NO LOADING SCREENS.
Both Games are currently in the Alpha of their development with the hope that SQ42 Episode 1 may be released Q3-4 2019.
I am suspecting to see a Star Citizen MMO/PU Beta end of 2020.

People may scoff, but being able to jiggle an ice cube around in your drink is important; it brings a sense of scale to the game. Looking down at a planet from orbit means more when you've sat in a bar on that planet and focused on the contents of your cup.

[@infernocanuck]

I can't tell if your are deluded or pretentious. Looking down at a planet should always be breathtaking. You don't need to stare into a cup to appreciate it. This is supposed to be a GAME, dude. Why the fuck should I waste my time staring into a fake cup of coffee. I can do that in real life.

[@evrypixelcounts]

Anyone notice how good the music is?

[@fabianb.5348]

indeed

[@polblanes]

did you notice how when the valkyrie arrives the music is a version of "The flight of the valkyries"?

[@hal5699]

It has that Blade Runner synth sound which is perfect for this spaceport. AHHHHHHH im so excited but I really ought to step away for another couple of months until 3.3.5

[@cupojo2318]

@@polblanes They should put a system where it lets you blast music in game cause I'd totally blast that from a squadron of Valkyries when invading a base.

[@tljoshh]

Reminds me a lot of Blade Runner

[@jasoncdeman]

There needs to be a HUD cam for landing. Like modern cars have for backing up.

[@bbrot]

underrated comment ^

[@danilooliveira6580]

landing in general feels really finicky, I hope they will improve it with the new flying mechanics. maybe add a landing radar like Elite has.

[@jasoncdeman]

Awesome. This game is great.

[@Wyverex]

Definitely agreed there. Though I believe at some point the Devs said something about this. Something about cameras and such being hard. Though that probably might have changed.

[@jasoncdeman]

I highly doubt it's hard to add another camera. They have 4 default cameras as it is. FP Player, TP Player, TP Ship and Reverse Third Person Ship. Placing 1 on the bottom of the hull isn't hard in my opinion. Make sure it's Field of View is large enough to encompass the area the ship requires though. edit: but like Sod White said, I think they'll do a proper one eventually.

[@McZee_Sketch]

*makes coffee* *crowd goes nuts*

[@i_cri_evertim]

i died in that part

[@icedanilzation]

I know you're kidding, but its not the making of the coffee, it's what it represents.

[@dickhead2285]

Yea I was a bit surprised about that

[@f1nger605]

@@icedanilzation - Screwed up development priorities?

[@icedanilzation]

Or an inaccessible mini-game.

[@aspejcher]

Vids keep coming. Pace yourself Bored. Get some sleep.

[@remy99c]

The action menu does take you time to do things, they need a quick action like just quick tap F to open a door or the main action of an item

[@EddyKorgo]

or stick a cursor to a options or center options on a cursor.

[@Cythil]

They have some of those quick action buttons. But yeah. That is very much needed for a lot of thing the most common actions. A quick interaction button when you not messing around with a panel or some other fine precision thing.

[@BooneyianLogic]

I cant get enough of how excited C.R. is for all of these things coming together.

[@jasonfrost5025]

He's more excited for all the free money for doing basically nothing.

[@MSkov89]

Thanks for the upload Bored, glad to have all SC content under one channel

[@anthonydiaz8577]

Bored this is why you’re my go to guy/guru for anything SC related!!! FOR THE WIN!!!

[@mightysaxon1592]

I love your gameplay cuts. always look forward to them after the presentations because its just ... better.

[@Azreal15]

Thanks for the demo cut. I saw it there in person, but it’s nice to see the direct video of it.

[@cantdoshitt]

Here post citizencon 2023. Still holding our breath for tht coffee maker..

[@AmentiVZ]

I really enjoyed this demo. There are plenty of people saying it's slow and boring, just like with the S42 demo; but, they're missing the fact that a real player is going to set a more aggressive pace, most of the time. Not to mention, the gunplay in the demos is pretty atrocious, due to using controllers. Also, seriously cannot wait to trudge around in the savannah biome.

[@grandpilgrim4998]

Absolutely smashing out videos this week. Thanks for posting all the information I'm after

[@centronox]

This aged so well. The graphics are so much better now and they where insane for 2018.

[@SPG8989]

Some of it, some of it looks worse now. Look at the bunker around 41:43.....we do not have those awesome smoke effects in them. Also, we have no missions that have multiple parts like this other than SoO and that is rare event. I want this game to be amazing as I backed it and play it every day, but man idk if they will ever get there.

[@verdyguo]

Chris Roberts - take as much time as you need. This is the first time in the history of gaming where there are no shareholders or publishers (looking at you ubisoft and ea) pushing developers to rush out a game. Every time you guys release something, its like opening a present on Christmas. You keep surprising all of us with how much detail and depth there is in this world of Star Citizen. Keep doing what you're doing and don't listen to any of the haters!!!

[@James_Molander]

At the same time they should keep in mind to listen to their backers - too many times in the past they have messed up with marketing and feeding the trolls. The dev team is completely fine, but the marketing and moderation team... well meh.

[@jdl2327]

Dude the game has no frames and it is too slow paced. They should honestly listen to the haters and release a good game with a good story or something to make it worth playing. I don’t care about mechanics, it’s already fine.

[@verdyguo]

jdl232 if you wanted to play something fast paced with no depth and simple mechanics then there are games already out on the market that cater to that such as Destiny or Battlefield. Star citizen is a piece of art that is constantly pushing the boundaries of conventional game making to create something beautiful and breathtaking. I agree that the optimisation is completely shit right now in Star Citizen. I built a good computer just so I could play the alpha but I could barely even cut through 30 fps. I’m not a game developer but optimisation of frames is polish that can be done in the background. I’m sure right now the dev team is working really hard to just to pump out the raw game first.

[@AuthenticallyCaptured]

dude cd project red pumped out all their games without any share holders/publishers....they are their own standalone company, they have been doing it since 2007 so the only special and different thing about Chris and his company is the scale and depth of the game lol

[@AuthenticallyCaptured]

the frames problem is server side so no matter how good your pc is its gonna be a bad time but this is being fixed in 3.3 so that people will get over 60fps.....just thought i would let you know.

[@chueysteel]

I can't tell you how many times i have watched this gameplay and still amazed. I am so looking forward to Playing on Hurston

[@Nahtskato]

Took the guy 20 sec to wake up and another 30 sec to the coffee machine .... damn .... that's pretty fast compared to my mornings. ^^

[@seanstormbaldacchino1358]

Saw this live, really enjoyed the crowds hype I was shouting with them at home, hahaha. Fun to rewatch.

[@pfcreel]

I can't watch this enough. Excitement is through the roof.

[@Mithosi]

Thanks for the reduced cut, makes it easier to recruit to my friends!

[@thephoenixalignment2892]

looking at the beers near the teddy bear when we wake up, I'd guess we also have a hangover

[@SuuRyu]

Thanks for the early, edited post of the video!

[@LastFractionZero]

If you're ever flying over Lorville and you see a person standing on top of random building that'll be me staring at the scenery for the umpteenth time.

[@jeffbwilliams23]

This was fun to watch! Thanks Bored!

[@blackmanx5845]

Thanks BG, this is the one I will share with the non-SC crowd. You're a madman behind the computer.

[@alphacentauri3069]

Thank you Bored, for all this content.

[@SSDsmiley]

Oh... I totally missed the coffee making... So worth the re-watch.

[@ilcoron7457]

The gameplay cut was pretty cool, yes. Amazing to see what will be possible in the game.

[@123reivaj]

The savanna biome reminded me when i played Crysis a few years ago :D But, when you realize that this is happening in an open universe with dozens of planets to which you can circumnavigate and not in a small map of 8 square kilometers is when you say: ... ... .... *_WOOOOOOW!!!!!!_*

[@tryton1000]

Excellent job with the edits Bored!

[@thadvsoske8087]

Nice, hi-res version of this. Thanks, Bored!

[@Cythil]

[@Daniel-tx8wy]

I loved this mission gameplay... Can't wait to try it myself!

[@avadonis_rahnubis2014]

It is going to be great just exploring all of the new locations and the missions, man I cannot wait. All very impressive.

[@erkboost8877]

loved the observing while holding in hand. I can't wait to do that with my guns ^^

[@bkpark0813]

that biome is beautiful.

The Bored Directors Cut ~ Worth the revisit!

[@lewsayyy]

This looked so awesome :D

[@justicepope2856]

Really enjoyed watching this thing live

[@doom96]

I love how in depth even the simple missions are becoming, although sometimes I worry 'normal' players wont know to try all this stuff, it will be difficult to make sure the player knows what to do where and when without it being too sign posted. beautiful visuals as always.

[@jbirdmax]

This was my favorite part of CitizenCon.

[@ItsLansche]

Awesome, thank you for the upload.

[@cloudcleaver23]

Dropship gunplay looks really fun. Gives me that Attack of the Clones LAAT/i vibe.

[@seaside1237]

Amazing ! Can't wait !!

[@Archangel125]

Star citizen really is something special

[@adammaywhort]

Very excited. please keep up the good work. and i do REALLY want the val. Cheers

[@immramauk496]

Thanks Bored

[@narce160th]

You know what would be a really cool video!!! A mash up of all the best footage of gameplay in one video, face tech, space environment, flight model, planet tech, and others, just gameplay footage all mashed into one vid, no BS

[@OrsunVZ]

well, there's this brilliant piece of work... kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5-aoKp3pbCWfKs

[@evrypixelcounts]

anyone else noticed they were using similar music to flight of the Valkyries when they did the reveal?

[@amay9242]

Very excited. please keep up the good work. and i do REALLY want the val. Cheers Try number 2.

[@lordseppenstein2559]

looking so damn great!

[@TheModernVIkingNor]

Love this looks so exciting

[@dirge8032]

awesome video

[@skmo7072]

Great vid thanks

[@ScottBrutsche]

Great update!

[@herbjr15]

Can't wait to try out some of that good FPS combat!

[@Moriloke]

I understand the use of game pad for the camera movements in the presentation, smoother and more cinematic, but the FPS part was painful as hell

[@jasonfrost5025]

It's not smoother. "Mouse smoothing" makes it buttery smooth. I have no idea why the fuck they use controllers. Edit: on second thought, CIG is full of amateurs and guys who clearly don't actually play or test their own alpha, so it wouldn't surprise me if they literally didn't know about it.

[@Mr_Manifesto]

can't wait till this is live

[@victorio404]

thanks for cutting the boring parts :)

[@MysticWok]

Oh my, hear me now! Man needs a Valk to get to Valhalla! This is my month! (As always thanks for the updates man! You're my only sexy sauce!)

[@yourarmydude]

The hype is coming for me!

[@Bacchaus66]

wonder if they've considered somehow working the interact/focus functionality into the existing aim button, as its basically aiming with the hands, and it may feel less awkward than the existing button

[@cmv4532]

Such a great demo, even with the little issues they're still ironing out.

[@TheRealYann]

The coffe still made my day!

[@TheForresterOD]

Quick question, with the advent if OCS, what are the new recommended PC specs to run SC?

[@x_quinn_x9179]

This game play was awesome :)

[@JnohD]

That moment when your CitCon hotel room looks worse than your HAB...

[@Azzerhoden]

Kudos for RSI for going with a live, current game play mission example.

[@GerryI1]

These mission and the new planet looks awesome.

[@citizenshenanigans2907]

I can't wait to get Hurston. :-)

[@evrypixelcounts]

I wonder if they're ever going to introduce a Citadel type space station like in Mass Effect, that would be amazing.

[@AuthenticallyCaptured]

i mean arccorp is probs the closet thing we got atm....maybe in a few years when the game is out and they are just adding content?

[@RakasansLegacy]

Nice cut.

[@luftwolf7405]

YaY! ;-) Time will come! We're going to play all that one day...

[@Bacchaus66]

so considering the statement that they want item persistence everywhere for everything, seeing this makes me wonder if that includes these mission set-pieces, like the crashed satellite?

[@charlesmagrin6260]

Would like to hear your thoughts about CitizenCon in general! I would not spit on a little Valkyrie giveway either!

[@runegud]

Nice demo

[@CitizenKlu]

the update is dam amazing can't wait to play it later this Quarter just hope it get live release directly instead of going to PTU

[@dronz9329]

That Hab gives me some Hellion vibes. Loving it

[@arpaulus]

Nice edit! Thank you for that!

[@alessimc]

Beautiful.

[@pqdmoovies]

Hyped

[@gogogomes7025]

It's like they are trying to do Cyberpunk 2077 with Hurston but you got to remember they are trying to do it so a hundred times!

[@LinksRoyal]

rather take one well made Hurston than a 100 Hurston XD

[@SwedishLatino]

Lol the working coffee machine aged like milk Edit: They should use this content as a presentation at citizen con for 3.15 :´)

[@donsolo5996]

this game is going to change everything

[@MR-ft1xm]

This game is ultimately about flying spaceships and they haven’t even nailed in-atmosphere flight. They have focused on attention to detail yet haven’t even added basic gameplay features in like fall damage.

[@moffxanatos6376]

Yay Breathable atmosphere! (albeit barely in the city.)

[@chrictonj9503]

We'll be able now, well, someday maybe, compare your cuts with those released by CIG. But not sure I'd hold a cup o' joe bu wrapping my hand around it. hahaha

[@christophwiedmann7854]

I hope the coffe mashine makes it into the verse soon. Thats the first upgrade I give to my Prospector and Freelancer. Just to be as cool as in the Kraken add movie

[@Torian1o1]

The music reminds me of Blade Runner so much. So very well done. They really got the atmospheric part nailed down. The planet looks amazing too. Can anyone tell me if the planet and gameplay seen here are all going to become available in 3.3? I heard Hurston will be available for exploration at least, but will that include Lorville with the metro system, NPCs, quests and so on?

[@b-radster9148]

love ur games

[@Lichachron]

I really like its atmosphere.

[@CurtissWu]

Yay finally!

[@abouttheverse]

I like that mission and the trains

[@bravesteel9267]

Patience is key my dudes... I adore this dream taking shape :)
