Star Citizen CitizenCon 2014 Persistent Universe Demo

[@TiberusV]

Man how far it has come.

[@STUDlOIC]

yet you log on and are hit with a wave of people complaining about the servers among other things.

[@nick_0]

it's pretty crazy

[@kiingjackoff]

I'm sorry but they haven't gone even CLOSE to that far. Don't be fooled by the fact that their graphics are 2 generations old in this video because of the paralyzingly slow game development. This game Demo shows a world that feels alive and living. Current SC may have better graphics, but that just reflects the abysmal pace of game development. Game tech moves faster than CIG's game development.

I am a 44 year old western NY man that works as a Head designer for RF power delivery systems for the major chip tool companies. I get to marvel at the great advances in video games over the past 4 decades and I am happy to see a group try to perfect that space fantasy game I always wanted. Lets give them some cudos and be happy for this amazing preview to a final product. Great Job Chris and teams...

So fucking good! I know the games about ships but I always love the cities in these types of sci-fi games.

[@kyrdakl7116]

it's not about ships friend, it's about a new you in the best damn space sim universe ever. the ships are just like any other transportation, you can do anything you want, even if it's not buy a ship and just hire out as a gunner/pilot to others. hell im sure there will be people who hire out as fps bodyguards or what have you. honestly if i dont have anyone in the org around, i'll be one hiring bodyguards lol, i suck at fpsers, but im a good pilot :) hope to see you in the verse!

Its come along so far now that this looks ancient and its so much better being able to land yourself now.

How about a ~50 hour campaign? Is that enough? :D

[@chris195868]

CapMurd who stuck a cactus up your ass? Apparently you own a time machine since you have allready tried the full multiplayer long before it is even released.

[@chris195868]

CapMurd i'm a sore looser and i cant debate? I'm not the one making baseless arguments based on information that doesnt exist. And how can you say the game is not a space sim? It's setting is in space and it's a simulator in some regard. Being a shooter doesnt exclude it from being other genres.

[@Benjd0]

CapMurd What makes it just a shooter? It certainly has shooting elements, but there's a bunch of ships that are specialised in areas and will never really be any good in combat. Exploration ships, salvaging ships, cargo haulers, luxury travel, information runners, mining ships etc. It's no more a 'shooter' than any other space sim that has combat, at least based on their plans, unless you really have been to the future and seen the final game.

[@JimmyDali]

CapMurd so I guess we all agree that SC will be a space sim rts shooter rpg.

[@Sindraug25]

Cool video! Though if anyone from CIG actually reads these comments, I would suggest changing signs from "Open 24 Hours" to "Open All Hours"; each planet will have a different day length.

[@thetruegoldenknight]

Praise this glorious moment! People complaining that it's unoptimized and all that...Well, you have quite literally all the time in the world to improve hardware and software to make all this go smooth (you keep insisting that this is all absurdly early in development, anyway). It's just a matter of patience. I say, keep at it! ":) My biggest criticism, though, is I don't like that one song constantly repeating; the same one that makes me think of battling in Arena Commander. I do not feel it's fitting for a scene as peaceful or slow-paced as this demo video. Not saying slow pacing is bad; just saying the song creates a disconnect in my mind as I feel it doesn't fit. So truth be told, please show us a bit more integration in the music department. Speaking of which, the worker arms near the end almost have this fascinating techno beat to them. It's surprisingly catchy. Although, at the 1 minute mark, there is a hilarious glitch involving stuff phasing through the bulk of the starship! The transition between space and planet is not yet smooth, but I do like the progress in having some transition at all. And for a minor detail, the part of going up the stairs? It's at about 7:15. That part is animated in a way more akin to traditional animating, with a stair-textured slope as opposed to the way someone looks going up stairs; taking a stair or two at a time. Yes, going up actual stairs is more tedious, but I think it belongs in a game fixated on staying as realistic as sci-fi can permit. And that chime that keeps playing in the background? There's something cute about it. :3 One last thing: I *REALLY* want a gear-globe like the one in the main plaza!

[@briankirk2614]

Many do, its just that you never see the people who understand these things (product development life cycle for instance) complaining ;) I sincerely hope they are not trying to force a 2015 release with the scale and scope they have planned. Do it right the first time, take your time. The younger crowd can wait.

[@craZysteve547]

You guys just got a taste of something so detailed that had a lot of love put into it from a company with so many great and passionate Sci-fi fans such as yourselves. Sorry that video games aren't built to your standard, but you just have to learn to appreciate how hard it is to even make games such as this a reality. I'm blown away by how they got a persistent demo in, I wasn't even expecting it. There's much more to come (obviously, open your eyes people) and they will iterate and fix any optimizations needed to make these kind of settings run smoother on general and gaming PCs. You people expect a 5-Star game within such early stages of development and it annoys me to no end, and makes the gaming community (especially for PC) look unforgiving and greedy. I'm 18 years old and haven't been exposed to the great growth of gaming over the past few decades but hell, I am appreciating everything it has to offer because having entertainment like this at my age is breathtaking and I can't wait to see what the PU and SQ42 have in store for us in the future. Keep goin' RSI, you guys are doing a fantastic job.. so keep it up!

I knew people were going to complain about them, but don't worry, it's just people who don't understand the current state of the game. I wish I could say we don't need them in our ranks, but I suppose the game can still use funding.

Guys this is still pre-alpha. I think it looks amazing! Of course there will be glitches and bugs to work out, screen stuttering and all.

[@cwx8]

This.. is a bizarre amount of detail at this stage in development. With how many landing zones they need to create, it seems to me that development will be neverending if they don't implement procedural landing zones.

[@Benjd0]

They have a few studios contracted who are basically dedicated to building these assets, they probably have a lot more at various stages of completion since the Terra landing zone was shown just over a year ago now. They did mention that they have some set architecture styles and will be able to put some things together modularly, so that should definitely make it easier.

[@cwx8]

TehDocc I sure hope so! It's a bit unusual to see this much detail at this stage of development. I know they are using vertical development styles but that does put the project at some risk when the scale is this grand.

[@ReeseYost]

I don't understand how people can complain about the issues in this video. Have that many people really forgot that WE are the ones backing the game, WE are the volunteer QA section of CIG. We test their stuff, then give them feedback on how to improve it before release. You all need to stop expecting a flawless game when they present it, that's not the point and the fact your missing what the point really is here is quite upsetting. Internal testing only gets them so far, they need us to do the real testing and give feedback. Early Access gaming is a great way to work on a game while keeping people hyped for it. But people have lost sight of what Early Access means. You're not getting a full game. You are testing aspects of the game to improve them before release. Stop having such high expectations for a blatantly unfinished product. Yes the video lags. Yes the animations aren't perfect. Yes there are alot of aspects about this that aren't perfect. That's where we backers come in. This is to give us a look at our testing platform. Don't complain and feel cheated that it's not what you want. Instead play it, find the issues and mention them in a friendly manner to the devs. You serve no purpose if all you do is complain about the issues and say "This looks dumb, it's not what I wanted, I'm not coming back to the game until it's finished" If that's honestly how you feel, then don't come back at all you are of no help in early access. This game is being made for the community to TEST. You're not here to play, you're here to assist in devlopment until the product is completed. You donate money to assist in the devlopment of the game as a choice. Just because you pay $1,250 for a ship in game doesn't mean that they start devloping the over all game faster. No amount of money changes the speed at which indivdual people can work. Early Access also demands patientce. Alot of you need to learn how to have that. TL;DR: Stfu and be happy you have what you have.

Player walks away from his open cargo hold, and sees two fully geared guys walking up to his cargo hold. Radio says "Unattended cargo will be confiscated." Guy walks into the building, while the two men in suits continue to stand around his ship and open trunk. That said, everything else about this demo was extremely impressive.

I wasn't expecting the comments to be so pessimistic. Apparently making sure the character walks exactly right is the primary concern of the audience. As if it won't get changed in the next two years leading up to the release. Well fuck you, I'm excited.

A-fucking-men! I swear CIG could be handing out gold bars and people would whining that they were too heavy...

[@jman97ful]

This could be one of the greatest games ever made, not going to lie. :D

[@satanicdude]

The visuals are just stunning at this early stage. I wonder whether there will be (for example) exploring missions where you can land manually, not the whole process from the outer space, but just manually bring the ship to the ground. like flying over an area and be like 'hmm maybe I should land on that specific hill'

[@jankaselitz]

Who had the smart idea to interlace this video?

[@ross4814]

And to think we are weeks away from being able to land at Area 18.

[@fish67op]

Beautiful.

[@Iluya]

looks really awesome! Hope, that will be not only decoration, and it'll be many tasks to do in this cities. )) Great job! But keep in tonus! It's a lot to do by now! )

[@positronicreflex.]

Cool stuff. Keep going CIG!

At the time I'm writing this there is only 8 haters that just seem to have a lot to say so don't let their negativity fool you. Tons of Star Citizens are really excited about what this video means and only those who have been following the game actually know that CIG is just showing us a glimpse of how landing planetside will look in it's pre-alpha state. Those who don't say anything but just give the video their likes probably don't say anything because they don't need to.

With an estimated 2 years to a full release, this is amazing! Player animations could use a bit of work, but wow I want to go to Arccorp. This is awesome!

[@shershe_s]

still some years needed :)

[@Sc2mapper117]

Wow, this is very cool. I'm playing Elite Dangerous and really liking it, but I'll definitely have to pick up Star Citizen once it's finished.

[@quilnux]

OMG! this... is so... amazing...

[@bighitblowout]

Looks really good. Animation on character and npcs could use some touch ups thought and rendering is leggy as we saw. But it looks fantastic!!
