[@Skansener]

The design is the most beautiful one I've ever seen in a Sci-Fi universe ever!

[@paulweaver2779]

+Boba Fett No it's not. But it's definately one of the most detailed craft for space sim to date...

[@Skansener]

Paul Weaver Which one you find more appealing?

[@paulweaver2779]

I think that the ship from the movie Prometheus is quite decent... In fact this ship reminded me the one from the avatar movie. The one which delivered the "sarge" - in a cockpit - to bomb the tree.

[@Eli9A]

+Paul Weaver you are insane to say the avatar ship but the prometheus ship looks cool but its engines looks bigger then the ship, the ship does not make sense but it looks insatiably cool

[@paulweaver2779]

+Nosk 007 if you like avatar ship less then the Prometheus ship - it does not make me insane neither avatar ship worse then this.

[@citizenkhaelis]

My god, that Pedro score is even more amazing than the ship!

[@AdmiralMatticusSC]

Amazing! The score in here is phenomenal! Well done Pedro Camacho. Well done...

[@pedro.camacho]

+MatticusGames Thank you sir :)

[@johnnyyuma7337]

+Pedro Macedo Camacho Can't wait for the soundtrack to be released!!!

[@steveredstone1711]

@@pedro.camacho After 3 years later. Still awesome job.

[@pedro.camacho]

Ferhan Enes Şahinler thank you sooooo much!!

[@dylanhowarth2534]

@@pedro.camacho Hey man idk if you're still reading these, but I have simply gotta congratulate you, your music is absolutely what turns this game from a buggy but enjoyable game, into a true experience - you've produced so much amazing music for this game it deserves to be in it once it's finally completed! I don't know how you did it, but you produced music for something that doesn't yet fully exist, and yet captured the essence of it perfectly, CIG could not have found anyone better to do the music for them, bravo!!

[@pipgoesthepossum]

Damn, Pedro, you've outdone yourself this time. Incredible composition. Really can't wait to hear the full OST.

[@EDHCollector]

You HAVE to watch it twice! ....man it is literally unbelievable that people are able to do something like this and put it in a game with so many features... this ship will fly in a huge universe! You will see this exploding on your Screen! This is crazy! Thank you to all at CIG for making Starcitizen and for showing what is possible today. And thank you Chris Roberts!

[@LucifersAngelFeather]

+oOXyroxOo I'll still my excitement till the game is actually finished and I can see how EXACTLY they will have put everything together.

[@EDHCollector]

+TheEsotericZebra It is well known and was always communicated that the full release will take a long time and this is how games should always be developed! They NEED time to make great things... idiots, who always want that erverything comes out as fast as possible are the reason that so much crappy unfinished games are out there! I hope it will take another several years for the official 1.0 release of Starcitizen to come out! I dont want that the developers work under pressure. Thankfully the community of this game is awesome and i dont think they work under pressure.^^

[@Sindraug25]

+TheEsotericZebra We're only nearing the 3 1/2 year mark for development, so I would expect another 2 or 3 years ere it's done.

[@YusukeShirogane]

The level of detail on this ship is stunning. Good job!

[@Trakkar]

I've never seen such an epic trailer for a tank-truck (in Space). Awesome work!

[@ScrambledBread]

Okay guys... I can't stop watching this and it's getting in the way of my life. The music is just too beautiful and the presentation of the video is equally so. Star Citizen is becoming life. Cannot wait for the complete soundtrack.

[@yyyyyyyyyroto]

Bradley Todd Same happened to me with the Retaliator commercial.

[@HCvertigo]

Love the ship, love the music, love the game. Keep up the good work, CiG!

[@Chasmodius]

I'm still hoping these cinematic tools will become available to us at some point. I see some great opportunities for excellent machinima.

[@IJTFILMSI]

Agreed.

[@terfalga]

This is fulfilling my childhood dreams...... cant wait to go flying around in space in a beautiful ship and an amazing universe!

[@masew2012]

Thats it Pedro... Make us feel like legends when you compose music for this awesome game... This game will change everything. Best regards from a -33 year old man child from Denmark

[@mcarius6078]

+Tree Hugger (Poorhamster) Je dirais même plus qu'une musique, vous nous faites vivre votre passion a travers votre incroyable talent a faire vibrer nos émotion. Vous donné; au jeu une dimension jusque là mal exploité, ce n'ai qu'en se donnant a fond, comme vous Pedro que chaque instant dans le jeu, nous vivons un rêve éveillé.

[@masew2012]

+boigné P Vraiment magnifiquement dit mon ami ...

[@warwwick8564]

WOW!!!! That STARFARER and that MUSIC!!!!! AMAZING!!!! Pedro + Foundry 42 = MAGIC!

[@canisrah]

Very very nice. Sublime music is perfectly chosen.

[@anorax001]

I was walking through my Starfarer in my hangar today and I actually got lost within the ship. It is a massive ship with a tremendous level of detail. Looking forward to the release of the Idris next! :)

[@DormantGames]

+Anorax Same here. I went into the ship with the intend on going to the bridge- got lost. 20 minuter later I've explored every other part of the ship- finding the bridge last. I'm gonna need to install a tourist guide map at every corner of my ship once we hit live. By the way- For now, everyone has a Starfarer in the hangar if they don't own one, temporarily. (Left side of the hangar) They felt they wanted everyone to explore the current biggest ship in the hangar.

[@SweRaider1993]

+Anorax They may hold off on releasing the Idris and Javelin (among others) before Squadron 42 release. It would be like showing the sets of Star Wars Ep8 before the movie itself releases ==> lots of potential spoilers.

[@FurryMcMemes]

The detail is amazing, it's like it's real.

[@OO7BOND11]

How could you thumbs down this piece of art??

[@theungineer1600]

Un-freaking-real. The hull lighting is beyond beautiful

[@vladark138]

Insane level of details. By far, the most complex development in the whole damn world...for now.

[@mastajigga13]

+ShimiLoshmi no, it's a new standart. It's a QUADRUPLE A game!

[@vladark138]

***** He-He, it is hard for our minds to imagine next evolutionary step, in whatever form it takes. Often we underestimate how quick new change can come into our lives. Don't be so confident. Life is full of surprises.

[@mastajigga13]

Yeah, you probably right but i can't stop thinking that it is small step for CIG but a BIG one for the industry of video games. :-)

[@Cyco-Dude]

+Dark-Union the next step is...the idris! only cig can out-do cig, lol. ;)

[@mastajigga13]

Omg, imagine Idris, Javelin and Bengal !!!

[@Bimmerphile1]

Just watched this in 4k on my 55in 4k Sony TV. Absolutely stunning. To think this is all IN GAME renders is mind blowing.

[@savagefrito]

Beautiful ship!.... J.J. Abram's trade mark - lens flare... Jon woo's trademark - doves... Star Citizen - volumetric fog Never change, I love it

[@VideoSage]

By far, best ship trailer I have ever seen.

[@PotatoWheel]

Can't believe you guys stayed till 12am to push this out. My favorite developers, by far.

[@Gokatgo]

It's called timezones

[@PotatoWheel]

Gokatgo​​ Yes, and it's 3am where I am. It's 12 am in their California office - where they had people working on it. It's 7am in their UK office, where they had people working on it yesterday (during a stat holiday). 

[@silverwolf5711]

+Leo K if i recall, there is an option to set a time and date to publish a video. Not entirely sure however, but i seem to recall uploaders can do that.

[@PotatoWheel]

Gordon Madsen I was talking about the actual patch for the game, which was released minutes before the video.

[@DG-jk2dw]

Great ship, Great composer.

[@blazenetic]

BIG thanks to CIG, especially Nathan Dearsley and Pedro Macedo Camacho

[@pedro.camacho]

+Captain Coppa My pleasure, sir! :)

[@jinxsoulbroker2037]

+Pedro Macedo Camacho I think you are not human , this sound track is amazing XD

[@zlinga]

Great video with amazing music! Great job Pedro and the cinematics (?) team.

[@hadleys.4869]

Awesome job on the Starfarer CIG! Also, excellent music Pedro.

[@striderk-jin5387]

The month not even over yet and we have the Starfarer LOL wow! You guys rock!

[@nickmorley1185]

When I saw this first posted I was like.. "great another Starfarer tour....". WOW is all I can say, video was AWESOME! Love seeing the AI walk around and work on the ship!!

[@theelement9767]

+Nick Morley is that mean I can use the ai in univars ?

[@VoloxTV]

+The Element yes, you can have an NPC crew

[@theelement9767]

realy are you sure becaze I love big shaps like this one but how this will work if am not draiving the ship but I am in side and I want the npc crew to attack another ship how this will work ats almost dream come to truth

[@YumLemmingKebabs]

+The Element Not yet. The ai isn't implemented yet. Those NPCs were scripted. However, in the final game (or whenever they get around to implementing it, whichever comes first) you'll be able to use NPCs for your crew. They won't be as good as real (good) players, but they'll fill out your crew and probably won't have any chance of betraying you. You should be able to have your AI crew members take any role on the ship including pilots and gunners.

[@theelement9767]

+ YumLemmingKebabs the ai crew ats perfect to me whay becaz English ats my second language so ats will be hard for me and for the real player to Contact

[@bondjames5514]

pedro is killin it

[@RIMASBRO]

Beautiful!

[@wlms_]

So beautiful music ! Very goob job Pedro, i like so much !

[@snydder1771]

I've already watched this 4 times in a row... just WOW

[@hansyolo9649]

My guess...Meet the Starfarer and Reliant in 2.4 at Port Olisar! Always good to see Misc getting some love.

[@AlysianahNoire]

+AnonRanGER01 Please don't make me faint. I think they said when it's flyable the fuel mechanic will be introduced. *gasp* I expected cargo hauling and grabby hands to appear first but I sure as hell aint gonna complain.

[@Esu21Productions]

+Alysianah Noire Do you think grabby hands will come arround 2.4? I would love it

[@AlysianahNoire]

I'm guessing grabby hands has been delayed by the EVA and animation changes? You have to be able to do in with and without G. We've not heard much about it in a while. If not 2.4 which they seem to already have somethings in mind, probably 2.5??

[@Esu21Productions]

Alysianah Noire I hope so! I would love to flip coins and stuff as soon as possible XD

[@Mark-ft8yx]

Loving the 4K option. Look even more beautiful in UHD. Thanks CIG

[@Exydos1]

I really love how Pedro Macedo Camacho have done the music! Good job Pedro!:D, It it fits perfectly!:D

[@igoodboyMC]

It has been amazing watching this game grow, this is only the beginning. I look forward to seeing your dedication, perseverance, and innovation reinvigorate the gaming world. You've done nothing but impress me and many others. All this work will pay off, this is truly an example of how a game should be made. I'll see you in the verse.

[@dancetweety10]

I can watch this video all day great npcs, great camera angles and great music again Pedro so inspiring. Great work guys :) . Great think is I have one in my hanger :)

[@ph11p3540]

To see this ship on KZbin is one thing and quite another to experience it up close and personal inside my extra large hangar. I was never sure when this day would come by my faith has been restored. My beer ship has arrived. The music is a beautiful introduction to the Starfarer.

[@btoiscool]

+Phillip Mulligan Why did you put faith into assuming that it would eventually be released in the first place? Quite silly tbh.

[@AshU-ug2fy]

Star Citizen... The game that will kill all other games... ;____;

[@jinxsoulbroker2037]

+Aki U TRUE

[@voidgivenfocus]

*wallets

[@LE0NSKA]

+Aki U why? because it looks good? dude, calm yourself.. it might be shit. pretty, but shit

[@hoppermantis7615]

+LE0NSKA after reading some of your posts... I SUGGEST you read slow if your even able to read such a long winded soapbox. Wondering, if your the type that sucks on the tits of alphas from the biggest pimp, STEAM. Considering their products are traditionally years old to even qualify for sale and are just glorified MODS as is most games. StarCitizen is already Cock-Slapping publishers into reality. Its directly responsible for the early release of a few products because of its domination. In its early alpha form I might add. A example being INTEL'S OPTANE MEMORY. As StarCitizen coding is so streamlined it allows for no loading screens on such a massive scale. HELL! My IT guys have even found a way to run it on consoles ! I consider it a sinful endeavor but it does give testimony to its coding. From all the whining and fears about its engine. The publishers desperately needed a level playing field as they wanted to keep selling crap coding . And this revolutionary memory will allow that. But it will just allow SC to do more ! STARCITIZEN has always been the Rally Call for better products. From pixels to alloys. Just because people hear that cry-engine was used. They think just another game! They just wanted its texture tools and even qualified the 20% requirement of individuality in just weeks . A CODING i might add that was started in FEB 2014. As little kiddies and news reporters trying to bedazzle the story, thought development was started from the get go. Never thinking about the investing required , creating from scratch, investing , offices , infrastructure... blah blah.. , Not to mention. Using that time to create a new business model through ingenuity of themselves and listening to the fans ideas and concerns of games and coding. Spanning generations. For over a year. StarCitizen has always been about the engine. I tip my hat to the younger generation and their intelligence for early backing. Showing they are enlightened on this future business model/product is surprising. As StarCitizen's main backer is an successful psyche making the smallest percent of its citizens. I find it funny little buttehurt kids question peoples business sense rolling in Maserati Mercedes and some of the best jobs and opportunities out there.** shout out ! GO NASA / SPACE X !** Dare to dream! The simulation has already grabbed first place. Starcitizen is what YOU make of it. This isn't some arcade leveler, pay to win. When its finally released it will always be about its engine. Not whether or not you have a shit life experience that you bring with you .

[@Treecko8O]

Sadly I don't have life time insurance on mine, became a backer late so wasn't able to get in on the early benefits lol

[@The_Huntress]

+Tiberius Mercer (Austin Carter) That's certainly part of it but also, sometimes you can get LTI deals when you buy the ships when they are in early concept stage only regardless if you were an early backer or not. Just something to think about.

[@Meister_Dwight]

Man that shot at 2:35 with the grass in the foreground made me giddy. The scale of this ship is so amazing. Can't WAIT for it to be flight-ready. It'll be so damn epic.

[@SweRaider1993]

Pedro's / Geoff's music + Fancy SC/SQ42 content ==> Re-watch around 5x.... ;D

[@Zuesacoatl]

The ship is wonderful, but the fluid lifelike movements of the NPCs......phenomenal

[@NightLord01X]

+Sascha Tausend It's all rendered IN game engine using IN game assets not pre rendered animation. This is how the NPC's move in game.

[@btoiscool]

+Sascha Tausend They never really say that their gameplay is "in engine". the only video I could find (within 5 minutes mind you) of them saying such is the pupil to planet tech, and that wasn't really talking about the video itself.

[@alandab]

+Sascha Tausend Dude...you're an uninformed idiot speaking drivel. Shut up until you've done a lil' research and not make another fool outta yourself in front of everyone on the internet.

[@dancarlin5434]

If i could give it 10 thumbs up i would.

[@AlysianahNoire]

Mad crazy hype for seeing the ship with characters inside. I can't wait for my download to finish so I can see it in person. Woot!!! Now we really need to be able to invite friends into our hangars.

[@striderk-jin5387]

Do more of these "Meet the (new ship)" videos and create a play list just for them.

[@DevilzFan]

I am so glad I backed this game in the very early stages. (I have the Golden Ticket to prove it!) This is the ship I have been anticipating the most, and I'm so happy to have it in my hangar now. I'm also very glad I bought it years ago for the (now) low sum of around $175
