"why is it taking so long" lmao here's a video 5.5 min scrolling through the ships at a decent rate.... without stopping

Not to mention proprietary technology to build their game

[@spacehorn409]

@@sashimi0003 All of which is from scratch, they aren't even going to use directX as soon as their gen12 renderer is done. Blew my mind when I learned about that

[@Nekrotropik]

Reminds me of Game of Thrones, no point in making perfect ships when you have no game, I dont think we will ever get the end of GoT, same with this :)

[@francescosalvadori9891]

Bro, look for the same but but for Eve Online?s ships. Thats no excuse at all for the amount of time they are taking to finish the game...

[@pomstache]

@@francescosalvadori9891 the biggest difference is that eve ships have no interior to them

[@WestSage]

yeah I cant wait to have some of the over gameplay and locations! should be Epic!

so far as i'm aware the Kraken is the largest ship that can go in Atmosphere more than once.

[@treeinafield5022]

This was nice. Can you do one with both SC ships next to real world ships and planes? It would be cool to see how big these ships compare to real world counterparts, it would also be easier to visualize the scale.

[@sleepygryph]

Well the 15-20m stuff compares to modern fighter jets, the 100m stuff to large airliners, the Javelin to a modern aircraft carrier.

[@cestialfall84]

@@sleepygryph It's hard to visualise with words, much easier if you see it.

[@themathematician5563]

the biggest ship ever constructed in our world was seawise giant lying at about 450m. So, more or less comparable to the javelin in this video. I'll say, the super dreadnought class ships (retribution and kingship) are wild. Imagine seeing a literally 3 km long ship. I mean, what the fuck?

[@yous2244]

That would be nice

[@VincePhoenix]

It's great, I think a 60 fps version would be smoother ! ^^

[@hjm9586]

playback sped at 1.25x looks smoother for me

[@VincePhoenix]

@@hjm9586 Oh yeah, I played it in x2 like most videos. It makes it smoother because you get closer to 60fps ^^

they tried to make it realistic 40, like in game..

[@stoanes]

Yes! I love these videos. I just rewatched the older one yesterday. So glad for a new one, keep it up!

[@Legatus]

The Kingship is still the old model, which is completely different from the new one. The Pegasus as far as I know is either forgotten or dead, even if they do restart the development it is almost guaranteed to look different.

[@Sitarow]

Epic scale! Keep up the good work! :D

[@MonteKristof]

I can't not be hyped again (again) for the BMM now that it's on the Roadmap... again!

[@Epsyk]

Hopefully it doesn’t disappear... again.

[@lostsanityreturned]

And coming from the future... wow it grew...

[@robertkruger8180]

After stopping this Video my Monitor is shifting slowly.

[@WestSage]

its not your monitor its your eyes! Its from the movement, same as when your driving :)

[@alfredstudent6180]

Excellent job done! Keep your efforts and every citizen will proud about you!

[@alfredstudent6180]

BTW, Redeemer is now 51m long, Nova tank is 17m long due to 3.13.1PTU and CIG newest announcement.

[@generalrendar7290]

The Retribution seems to take inspiration from the Rebel TEC Ragnarok in Sins of a Solar empire. A Ship built around a massive railgun.

[@bulldog5513]

hahaha all that zooming out makes my screen zoom in after the movie ended. good stuff !

[@juicebowl]

Awesome work, I just watched the last scale video and you've made some improvements.

[@Stratobrick]

Great video. I keep reference it... but did the redeemer get bigger since they did the rework? It seemed a bit bigger when walking around it during invictus than what is shown in the video here.

[@Immortal_BP]

even without an interior the last two ships would be amazing to have added to the game

[@GeneralPadron]

Even if they just randomly jump in system at places while Users were in the area. That would be an emmersive touch.

[@anthonygordon9483]

Server Meshing definitely needs to be in. The size of those last two ships would take all the players that can be held in one server now. I honestly did not think they are getting that big. Looking at the ships we have now those last two ships hold more capacity than the space stations.

[@furanduron4926]

Imagine piloting them. Gonna be my end game goal in the game.

[@arunaschlevickas322]

@@furanduron4926 most likely not gonna happen outside of single player mode since they are gonna be very few and expensive..

[@thatrandomguycommenting1261]

I mean they could do a large interior in the bridge area. And just have elevators to go up to it from the hangers. I would hate to fly a ship that large with a full interior. You would need a damn online guide just to get around lol

These are fantastic to see on display in such a way. I noticed at around the 34 second mark you show just one MPUV at 9.3m and do not specify that it is the personnel variant as well as not showing the cargo model which is 9.5m. Something to add for the next iteration perhaps! o7

Lol for starters a king ship will be a system event so you will have back up. But if your in an aurora you may have better ods going on board for some hand to hand!

I love these, but sometimes the order/naming doesn't make sense to me. For example, listing 100i, 135c, 125a instead of 100i, 125a, 135c bothers me, as does naming the Reliant Kore simply 'Reliant' or the Ares Inferno 'Ares'. I know these are minor things and they won't stop me from upvoting you, but they do slightly bother me.

Yeah about a minute in I stopped thinking about the ships as each one after to be bigger, and started thinking of it like size classes. Made more sense to me that way
