Star Citizen: Big Guns of the UEE

[@MagzGTV]

In game trailer as well, at 1:00 you can see the game glitched and failed to render the blokes helmet for a split second. I like that, I like that you can see this was using in game assets.

[@SargeRho]

I don't think it wasn't so much a proper glitch as it was a culling artifact, probably gave the helmets lower priority than they should have, or they're on the wrong layer, whichever system CryEngine uses.

[@SpookGod]

Saw that too, thought I was crazy for a moment.

[@therealaim-9xmissile]

MagzTV lmao saw it his head had no helmet when the light hit and then boom some how the helmet comes back, good job pointing it out

[@Alexander-nz1dz]

Can't....unsee

I know this comment is old but they cant even get an idris to spawn in engine bro. Too much memory. Epic cutscene tho

10/10 for appropriate use of letterboxing. All jokes aside, that was absolutely stunning. Jaw dropping.

[@sergarlantyrell7847]

And yet KZbin won't let me watch it full screen/size on my 21:9 monitor!

[@Aethid]

If you are using Chrome, then try the UltraWide Video plugin.

[@greaterFool3765]

That's not KZbin. That's CIG. I've got a 21:9 monitot too and there are videos on youtube in that format. But CIG uploads there Videos in 16:9 with black bars.

[@sergarlantyrell7847]

Aethid I had a look, the permissions seem a bit invasive. But it shouldn't really be a problem in the first place. KZbin just needs native 21:9 support, either as an option upon upload or an auto detect feature. It's not exactly hard.

[@sergarlantyrell7847]

Hendrik Lippka But if KZbin could just check for the right size bars which it would tell them it's 21:9 and so it's okay to trim and stretch to fit the screen.

We are living the DREAM!

[@jojorulez11]

This song is a masterpiece. Cant wait to hear more of his music in the game. Well done Pedro.

[@RobCoxxy]

Pedro Comacho's score alone is honestly worth the money I've spunked into this project. Cannot wait to hear the full score for Squadron 42, and everything playing throughout the PU.

[@pedro.camacho]

Wow, that is very kind of you :)

[@RobCoxxy]

Wow, hello! No problem, Pedro. You're rapidly becoming one of my favourite sci-fi composers.

[@alpinejonny]

No really, he is absolutely right... I have watched this "Big guns of the UEE" video over 2 dozen times simply because the track is just so unbelievably good. Worth every penny I have spent so far on Star Citizen to have the chance to hear your work in this game.

[@ZypheREvolvedPCGamer]

Poor souls if only they could comprehend

[@EddyKorgo]

haha would looove to see theyr faces =D

[@ZypheREvolvedPCGamer]

***** You're right and good RP players could make it a better game for all of us.

[@ZypheREvolvedPCGamer]

You're going to get what you want. I would explain why but it would literally take hours. You need to go back 2 years and watch development videos. Listen to the developers explaining the depth of mechanics. Find the video of missiles moving through the ship, into a loader, out to the exterior and be ready for firing. That is when you'll realize the depth SC is expected to offer and why CIG raised 130 million dollars.

[@Di-Ferr]

Ooh a believer

[@crashouverlock]

I have to say , i love the Star Citizen soundtracks , specially this . I fits perfectilly to the background video about space, ships and so on . It' awesome . They did a Great job composing it .

[@CatfishShotgun]

Phenomenal Music. Very cool design and visuals.

[@AR-fv5zi]

The use of music in this is mesmerizing. Absolutely wonderful video overall, fantastic piece of work.

[@Zentrify]

This video is basically a must watch at least few times a year.

[@Corghy]

1:02 I like how this guy is like, It's my time, let's fly... in the middle of his epic flight he realises, that he has no helmet... so he puts it on his head instantly...

[@scottcraft1454]

I'm in love with Star Citizen!

[@-TheP-]

Really wonderful. And that music ... thanks Pedro !

[@thedankestjesus1094]

This bring tears to my eyes

[@pvalpha]

The sound design that went with this clip was unbelievably well done. I want my Star Citizen OST now!!!! *stomps foot petulantly* And *this* is why I backed CR - he's a perfectionist. I just hope he listens to reason concerning the speed refactoring of the fighters.

[@Cyco-Dude]

it'll be fine either way...kind of getting the best of both worlds i suppose. finer control that slower scm speeds offer, and high speed (cruise / boost) when you need it. remember; earlier version of the alpha had all ship speeds at 50% of what they are right now. so it's not exactly new territory.

[@ItzTank1]

www.youtube-mp3.org/

[@dakshindesilva3002]

The fact we can see such details is what CR wants. Which is why he said he wanted the dog fighting to also get closer so detail of ships could be seen. I think it brings a more immersive style seeing specific damage on an enemy ship because of the close dog fighting.

[@Cyco-Dude]

Dakshin De Silva eh, it really won't have that much of an effect on dogfighting range or procedure. we've been here before.

[@pvalpha]

That can very much be done with level design - or in this case, encounter design instead of enforcing arbitrary limits. This is an argument that happens ad-infinitum on the boards. To sum it up: They don't need to make things as slow as WWI fighter craft. This is the only real complaint I have with CR's mission design throughout his games, he creates arbitrary boxes and limits instead of using good design to impose those limits and allowing players with good skill to perform better than those who do not have that skill. While his arbitrary limits might make dog fights closer, it makes other aspects of game-play literally immersion breaking. And players will find a way around it or they will simply not play because its boring.

[@kazuki561]

Please more of these shots or maybe whole fleets passing by and manouvering, this looks just so awesome!

[@Liscom]

The capital ships look super impressive. Wow. If I'm not mistaken, the Idris is the one that is almost finished due to its starring role in "Squadron 42", right? That must be one of the most complex objects ever to have been created for a game, I guess. As long as the Javelin and the Bengal come along, that is ;-). And you always have to keep in mind: these things are all totally thought out, with every panel and every crew station having a purpose. It is not "faked" as it is in other games, where some kind of FPS-level is loaded up that is standing in for the interior of a capital ship, for example. These beauties are actually THERE when you are on board. That, for me, is the most mind-boggling part - how much work they put in all the details of these ships that are a couple of hundred meters long.

[@Druminator82]

Walter White I don't know if you knew but the Bengal has already a Guinness world record for "most polygons in a playable spaceship": books.google.se/books?id=MNEyDQAAQBAJ&pg=PA122&lpg=PA122&dq=star+citizen+most+polygons+guinness+world+record&source=bl&ots=fkXKSfdT96&sig=J7E4H2CXxc5aE2wqBrTKAMa8w4U&hl=sv&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjL5YWrkrXQAhUEkSwKHUOWBcEQ6AEIJTAA#v=onepage&q=star%20citizen%20most%20polygons%20guinness%20world%20record&f=false Kind of weird when we can't actually fly it yet but the record is real either way. :)

[@Liscom]

Druminator wow, thanks for pointing this out. In fact, I was not aware of that! Looking at the size of that thing, it makes sense, though. But afaik Chris Roberts said yesterday that the Bengal will never be on sale for players. Commanding a Idris or a Javelin will be an enormous task in itself, though. This will probably need a pretty devoted organization of players to man and operate, right? Even when many tasks will be delegated to AI.

[@Druminator82]

Walter White Even though it would be cool to crew one, I think I would actually enjoy more exploring a derelict Bengal with some friends and finding out the backstory on why it was abandonded. If it turns into a nightmare of horrific porportions, all the better. :D

[@Taztorien]

you are able to board it and possibly capture one .... your just going to need a lot of people to pull of a operation like that, lives will be lost..

[@Liscom]

Druminator the possibilities seem to be limitless with that game. I hope they can pull it all off!

meh, i can. think of the framerate hit! the starfarer is bad enough, i can't imagine these. i wouldn't mind having one of these as a star marine level though...that would be fun. maybe make it as an assault type of game, where one side has to defend while the other has to start in space and infiltrate. that would be pretty sick.

[@scythelord]

won't be much of a framerate hit when they actually get in since by then the netcode refactor will likely be complete and it'll actually be a functioning game.
