Clouds seem to be very difficult to be well-done, the only time I've seen them well-executed is in games with a unique, almost cartoony art style.

[@Shell_Beach]

So as a pilot what do you think about the ships/planes that can just park in mid air indefinitely and pinwheel around on any axis as if they had absolutely no weight or mass...realistic??? 🤔 This game is pathological sunk cost fallacy.

[@RosscoAW]

The verticality of the clouds convinces me that they need to ~double planet sizes so they can stretch the verticality of mountains up like 4-8x what they currently are. We need *real mountains* alongside those clouds. Give me a Vancouver-level mountains-on-the-ocean view in Star Citizen.

[@LucidStrike]

There's AT LEAST one place in 4.0 where some mountains peak above the clouds, but I definitely wouldn't be mad at 1:4 scale planets.

they should really implement a system to teleport the player back up after detecting that the player fell through the map

@@N1ghtR1der666 I'm not into game dev, but can you really make a Z axis check with round planets into a universe ?

[@valhalla80]

They need to increase the size of the planets. With the volumetric clouds it looks odd. Don't get me wrong, I like how it looks overall, but for a weird reason it doesn't feel natural. Maybe because the distance from cloud to land and space are way too close.

[@BG_KD]

Been a fan of you and the channel since 100k subscribers, im so glad to see you stick with star citizen for so long and still enjoy making content on the game, makes me happy to see new viewers of yours and new star citizen players unite here at this channel. You deserve all the recent support, thank you.

[@SCtester]

As amazing as they look, the increased verticality of clouds really highlights just how overly small planets are. From orbital height, the clouds simply look too big in relation to the planet and atmosphere, giving away that the planet as a whole is actually the size of a small moon. It just doesn't look right for clouds to extend almost into space, and yet decreasing their height would make the clouds feel too in relation to the ground and ships. The only real solution is increasing the size of the planet. What I don't really understand is why this is an issue to begin with. Planets are procedural, so would it really add much extra work just to scale the planets up to a more realistic size?

[@Sir83chris]

Planets *will be* procedural. Pyro was still, at least if I remember Citizencon correctly, mostly hand-crafted (well, hand-crafted via height map I imagine). It'd also be very annoying with current travel times around planets, so they want quantum boost running as well I believe. Tbf they have said they're open and looking at the idea of doubling the size of the planets currently, pending Genesis getting better allowing them to populate planets much faster.

[@epicearnie4199]

Hey Ollie, just wanted to tell you it's been amazing seeing you grow your KZbin channel. I remember watching you I think when you were fairly new and watching the GTA modding videos when GTA mods were the new cool thing in gaming. I also was there when you became "frustrated" on the direction you wanted your channel to go. And now it seems like you finally found the game and happiness you deserve. I have to be honest, I don't watch much anymore (job kids wife house bla bla) but I can't wait to spend hours bing watching in the future. I hope whatever comes after or whatever your goals are, work out smoothly and in your favor.

[@JS-wt8vf]

Great looking sceanery and Pyro looks amazing. The increased FOV really ruins it for me though. The fish eye and limb distortion just completely destroys the video quality and is actually nauseating to watch. People get used to it in FPS games where it gives an advantage and don't see it anymore. When you are trying to make something cinematic or that has visual appeal, spaghetti arms and fish eye is not the go to look. Anyway, just some constructive criticism. Thanks for the video and the great work!

[@Mr_Jish]

Part of it is playing SC on an ultra wide where comparatively drastic adjustments to the FOV are necessary to not feel bottled in by the aspect ratio. I have to do the same thing, it's not even necessarily a preference thing at this point.

[@JS-wt8vf]

@@Mr_Jish Oh, I know. I play on an ultrawide. It isn't about what a person feels when they play, it is about producing content. If a person wants their content to be appealing to the broadest range of people possible, they need to conform to the standards set to that content. If people went to a movie or tuned into a TV show that looked like that, they would immediately find something else to watch. 60 FPS is barely acceptable for most gamers but completely unacceptable for most media like movies due to the "soap opera effect" it causes. This is the same thing. I play with increased FOV but find that it nauseates me and turns me off the content when watching it for pleasure. Especially when not on widescreen. You can look to creators like Morphologist who present ultrawide videos but maintain a very cinematic experience as examples of what I am talking about.

[@JS-wt8vf]

@@Mr_Jish The other part of this is that I often watch these videos to get an idea of what the default view is like on ships and which MFDs are viewable. Having an increased FOV distorts that idea and leads to false expectations. I kind of feel it is painting a false expectation about what piloting these ships really feels like. That is completely subjective and I know it is kind of a me thing but it plays into who I and my friends watch and subscribe to so is still valuable information.

[@tbarsnessvfx]

At orbit the cloud coloration doesn't quite jive with the atmosphere. The light scattering is very monochromatic. If you look at real clouds there is a lot of subtlety to the shift in light spectrum as the light traverses through the cloud volume. Also if this is an exotic planet with different chemistry in the atmosphere I would expect to see some crazy color shifts in the light due to different Rayleigh scattering properties.
