I can explain stutters. Since whole game / universe is streamed without any loading screens, stutters can occur but they depend on the speed of your hard drive. On default Xbox One 5400 RPM drives it can be a second or even more, on 7200 RPM HDDs it's about half a second and on SSD drives it's barely noticeable. What happens during stutter? The whole sector loads which means all the enemies that are generated, objects like stations, asteroids, space dust, nebulas, storms, anomalies, everything. Unfortunately, it's a hardware related issue. We will try to further optimize it, but I cannot promise anything at this time. Anyway, stutters occur only while crossing sectors and not during combat so it's not a gamebreaking issue. But I agree it's a bit annoying, since I'm playing it on both Xbox and PC. You can see the difference in these moments. As for other stuff, Xbox One version has completely redesigned UI which not only looks much better then PC version but was tailored to give the best possible experience to Xbox Users. It was not easy to port a game with like 50 buttons to a controller. :) As for comparison with original Starpoint Gemini, it's impossible. First title was made by 4 people in the kitchen during nights, without any game development experience or even budget so it was a miracle it was ever released, and of course, original was on 2D plane like Rebel Galaxy, while this one is full 3D space. Bear in mind that this is still an indie project, started by 4 and finished by 10 people and although comparisons with EvE, Freelancer or Elite are flattering, those teams spend more money on the morning coffee then we had for the entire project. ;)

Fun fact about the devs of SPG. Way back when i was playing SPG 1 (pirated version) and my save game got corrupted so i sent them a mail and they fixed it...not even saying a word about it being pirated. And after SPG 2 came out i checked the forums and one of the topics was asking politely that everyone that plays a pirated version should try and get the latest patch because fixing save games was too much work if they had to do it for so many versions. I think that says a lot about how awesome they are, glad they are finally getting some much deserved success with this series.

+Derrick Hayden Well we know one thing - If you want to buy the game, you will buy it. Even if you consider pirated version as a demo. If you don't wanna buy it, you won't. So no point in making any kind of witch hunt on pirated versions. Do we love that people play our game without paying? It doesn't matter, it's not our fault. But if you enjoy the game, even pirated one, that means we made a good game and that's what counts. :)

+ZenoLand It wasn't about making a witch hunt...even i would freely admit i would not waste precious time to work for someone who basically took something from me, so i was really impressed by it and even after all those years when SPG 2 came out i remembered the name of the game and seeing how i was making money now i immediately bought the game for both me and a friend to at least show a little support for a great dev team. It just sad every time i think how small indie teams do things that help everyone and have so little success and the big AAA devs just throw money at marketing and have instant hype for no good reason.

+Derrick Hayden It's all about marketing, Derrick. We, at LGM Games, rather invest mone into additional content then big ass marketing campaigns, and it shows. Although with more than 150000 sold copies on Steam, SPG2 is a success. I guess all that honesty and openess to people paid of somewhere. :)

Thanks ACG...I checked this vid out before buying...that glitch doesn't bother me too much, although it is downright noticeable. I'm having a hard time getting used to the combat after so much time playing Rebel Galaxy (which I also purchased after your review...LOVE IT). I'm a sucker for space sims and am hoping that Dreadnought will be out eventually. Keep up the good work...the reviews give praise where it's due, but don't shy away from negative aspects either. Thanks again.

LOVED this game. It gets amazing when you have around 10,000,000 credits. Then you can buy destroyers and larger ships with multiple hard points, hire mercenary ships to fly around and fight with you of different types and sizes. Board and salvage, or board and KEEP and use other ships. There are air craft carriers with fighter wings you can send individually. It really is an amazing game. Oh and I had no issues with stuttering on PC at all.

Safe to say, space games are back in the mainstream. How long before battlefield 2142 gets an overhaul (with gameplay depth intact) I wonder. Titans over open landscapes by day, traverse the starry skies by night probably my ideal combo.

When I started SPG2 I actually hated it at first because of little conveyance on how you're actually supposed to engage in battle and I could never find a comfortable control scheme. I had quit EVE Online around the time and already went through tons of space games, trying to find one that wasn't just a flight sim with capital ships that maneuvered like F-15s or just a straight up RTS. But I kept coming back to it again and again until everything kind of clicked. Now it's one of my all-time favorite space games with all the little subtleties that you have to pay attention to. For example: Turret placement makes a huge difference. Not just port, starboard, bow and stern angling to fire multiple weapons at once or rotating volleys, but getting under ships to have all your hard points fire simultaneously while staying outside of your opponent's radius. I was winning a lot of fights I shouldn't with my little Taurus (upgraded to tier 3 weapons and mods) until ~level 15 once I got the hang of it. I even took down a veteran, even though it took me almost half an hour of hit and run tactics. Great review though. You earned yourself a subscriber.

+ZenoLand Also, like I said to him above, I used to have alot of stuttering on a hard drive (as he said that he had). However, I've got SSD now, and most everything related to any stutters on any games have improved tremendously. But, I just installed the game (after price went down and this POOR STUDENT could afford it), so I am trying to get into the Universe of SPG2. Looks like fun and hope it turns out to be so.

Also, one thing I must say about your review, is that it was really interesting and enjoyable. I hate people that review and trash games for BULLSHIT REASONS. I feel for the Developers who create a great game then some KZbin DUMBASS pisses on it & hurts the sales. Okay, so you don't like XYZ: fine, but don't trash it. And, you did an awesome job on this. You said "stuttering is a problem" and WHEN-IT-IS, but you sure did not trash game developers for this. Thanks. So, I bought game after your great review, and I am looking forward to getting into SPG2 Universe with all of you guys. Again, awesome approach to reviews. Joining your channel.

Freelancer is one of my all time favourite games, and much like the Jedi Knight series, it keeps me coming back a decade later. So when you mentioned it, I became very intrigued. For someone who would not be bothered by the one graphical issue, would you suggest this is a buy? What I liked about Freelancer was the ability to go anywhere and do anything, which was of course enhanced by the wonderful modding community (Crossfire anyone?). This game seems to have that vibe, with the benefit (for me) of being on a console. I'm quite interested

On my console it was about 1,5 seconds, now I reinstalled the game on 7200RPM external USB 3.0 HDD and it's under a second. As I mentioned before, on my laptop, after upgrading to SSD, stutters are barely noticeable. I'm puzzled, we'll check it out.

Now we know so Starpoint Gemini Warlords is being prepared and developed from the start to accomodate XB1 and work smoothly. That's an honest answer. :-/

SPG2 is more fun. my only gripe is that ship lists and stats online are for the PC version. for example the frigate philadelphia 60 troops PC... 45 XB1. it matters when trying to capture ships!. still a good game though. it'll keep me busy for a while!

+AngryCentaurGaming Ah, sorry missed that in the description, my bad. It sounded like you really liked the game so I figured I'd mention it seems to run well on PC. Anyways... Do you think Elite Dangerous is worth picking up? I think you mentioned in this video. I see its on sale for $15 on steam... It looks a lot like this game but it also has multiplayer and seems more action based (which this game seems to lack). Have you reviewed that one?

A quick pause between zones is annoying, but hardly unique to this game. I find many a very good games have the same issue. Or they actually go to a loading screen. So, I'd be ok over the blip than a whole loading screen.

@VoiceULove

+Scuffy P Rebel Galaxy is more like Earth and Beyond with a 2 dimensional universe. You don't fly up or down on the Y axis, but rather left, right, forward and backwards on the X and Z axis. SPG2 is more of a flight simulator in space. Also RG is very grind heavy where as SPG2 like he said in the review is more of an RPG with with multiple areas of progression from skills to ships and ship components. I only recently purchased RG since it was on sale and honestly, it's not even close to SPG2 in any aspect.

+AngryCentaurGaming To be completely honest - No. Original SPG has much longer and even better story. Voice acting is another story though. Everything was made by 3 borthers in the basement on crappy equipment. So it has that special B-movie charm where one guy talks to himself in two different accents and he's not a native english speaker anyway. :D It's fun. :) If you have PC version, you got complete original SPG in Origins DLC.

I've never played a space combat/exploration game. This game looks so interesting that it might end up being my first foray into the genre. However, as solid as this game is the stuttering issue holds it back from being a great title. Its unfortunate because the gameplay looks good. The game has some pretty nice graphics to go along with cool explosion effects. The music is really well done as well. Good review as always. Thanks!

And it rarely happens (or at least I don't notice it anymore). So, don't make that a reason not to buy a game, it's bloody amazing! I got like 20 hours on it in 2 days :D

I have this game and the controls are not that well thought out. Graphics are good though. Still they could have done so much better on the controls. Makes the game hard to assimilate and you will have to learn all over how to control the ships systems. It is not for the average player and only for rts style players. Too much controls to take care of at once to be actually fun to play. Too bad they didn't try for Freelancer style of controls and looting. 1 out of 5 stars.

Looks like a good game, guess I'll wait until I get an Xbox One to be able and play the finished version of the game.
