Excellent, I can't wait to capitalize, as a well known pirate through out the cosmos, on those who play the celebrity card after Machinimas and movies are made. another way to be known and feared as the greatest.

Please don't distract him any more. We want this game before 2030.

[@afewsnakes]

There are some shots that look lifted straight out of a modern sci fi film, like Dune or something. A testament to both the creative talent behind this video & the creative talent at CiG for creating such a breathtaking tech demo ;) 3.17 is the first patch where I feel like the game is shaping up to be a proper game. Tons of fun things to do & get lost in for hours, tons of things to do and see etc. The foundations are here now. I can’t wait to see what SC brings us in the future.

[@mr_confuse]

And I'm happy to be on board :)

[@Wailander]

Thank you :)

[@realnaste]

Foundations are not there yet. Not until we have at least 10x as many people on a server running smoothly with AI that doesn't derp out.

[@fatality7674]

Merci, un tel compliment de ta part ca met du baume au cœur à toute l'équipe ! pour l'anecdote, 12h30 de rushs, 1 an de tournage sur 4 patchs, quand les servers étaient en forme...

[@Deusexrena]

Pareil ca m'a scotché, comme quoi .. SC on peut dire ce qu'on veut, on peut vraiment faire des choses complétement folles !

[@enrichissez-vous9468]

Tout le studio a bossé pendant 2 ans sur la cinématique, c'est pour ça que le développement du jeu est complètement à l'arrêt :)

[@Marslane]

Hands down, THIS IS THE BEST Star Citizen Machinima ever made. I LOOOVE THIS. Those mass scenes are sick. For some reason I am getting some big Starship Troopers vibes at the end. Amazing work.

[@guily6669]

I really liked that movie and the old game back then... Wish there Starship Troopers like game. No Man's Sky so far seem the best for exploration, but combat sucks, Elite Dangerous combat seem to be bad and Star Citizen combat looks fine to me but they all fail for not having crazy planets like Starship Troopers with deadly Aliens trying to kill us.

[@Marslane]

@@guily6669 i havent really played those other games. But well we have s long way until animals, aliens and alien systems get implemented. But Microtech is supposed to get a gigantic killer yeti.

[@eparock]

it is very well done however it is missing a story. i think overclocked is not as cinematic and huge in scope, but it is better imo. this would be amazing if it had the story telling of overclocked wth this giant battle scene...

[@surslaughter3524]

@@eparock they two entirely different videos with entirely different motives. Overclocked is great as well, but it wasn’t done for the same purpose as Sandstorm. Your comparing prime rib to lobster.

[@eparock]

@@surslaughter3524 whatever buddy... just seems like a lot of work for just a battle scene and not even a glimpse of a story... besides prime rib goes great with lobster. my point is cinematics without some kind of plot or story is like cereal without the milk. sure it is edible but it is so much better combined.

[@BlackSkyLegion]

OUTSTANDING! I would very much like to spotlight this vid on tonight's show and of course, will give you full credit as well as promote your channel. More people need to see your work! Keep it up! o7

[@jockcop4205]

There’s been some great Star Citizen Machinima’s recently. This is one of the best I’ve seen loaded with film references. I saw Balckhawk Down, Top Gun and a bunch of others. Looking forward to part 2.

Merci beaucoup !

[@aleksrkoryl]

Can someone pick my jaw off the floor please? Fan-fucking-tastic work on this! Love it!

[@IceH2o1]

And stuff like this is why Star Citizen is going to be one of the biggest steps in gaming we've seen in a very long time! Plus this is just awesome! Lol

[@vree_]

Star Citizen is definitely pushing the envelope in many areas, but I don't think it will ever be as polished as older Blizzard games (StarCraft I/WarCraft III) or something like GTA V. I think that's mostly due to the absolute plethora of features that Star Citizen is aiming for. That said I cant wait for it to release someday!

[@billywashere6965]

@@vree_ It definitely already surpasses the aforementioned in terms of fidelity/features. Polish? Maybe or maybe not, it's still an alpha. But when you see how many steps GTA V took back from GTA IV (which was admittedly less polished but more technically achieved than GTA V), it really sets the stage for Star Citizen to become the game-defining event of a generation (or multiple generations to come, given how stunted AAA game development is at this point)

[@IceH2o1]

Very nice. An exciting depiction of battle with some smooth shots, flying and overall adventure. Great job!

[@Baleur]

2:55 to quote CIG devs last week: _"its really hard to do night vision, because you have to lookup each materials specific IR reflectivity and multiply the complexity of all surface materials, its a long hard process"_ Random youtube filmmaker: _"Ok bro? How about i just use a post-process filter for the exact same effect? Done."_

[@fatality7674]

Except Night Vision is …. For dark environments, where surfaces don’t receive light at all or just a fraction at best. This scene was shot in daylight and, as you said, an effect was applied to it. For true NV/IR, each material has to either emit heat or tiny amounts of photons (if they exists) needs to be tremendously amplified. So that dev is right.
