You are surpassing Morphologis level of Cinematic Gameplay. Keep up the A game!
In regards of beds. I've always interpreted the bed logging as that you will de-spawn from the universe. So there are a plethora of reason bed logging is preferred.
Your ship despawns, making sure you don't get killed while offline, you get a well rested bonus, and of course, it's nice and immersive.
I'd really prefer it to be done this way. If you, for example, alt+tab in a Landing Zone, Space Station, or on a ship that you either own or are in a party with the owner with, you'd automatically be put into a bed and get a rested bonus. If everyone is logged out in a bed on a ship, that ship will eventually despawn if there is nobody around after a few moments.
Meanwhile, if you alt+tabbed out in the wilderness on some planet or in a ship that doesn't have a bed, no bonus and your body and ship will persist and potentially be messed with.
There are plenty of things they could do with beds aside from just an immersion feature for logging out.
Safety log out, as you mentioned, but also being able to switch between other characters/avatars that you have. Maybe you can play multiple characters at a time, having one on a friend's ship as a crew member, and when they are not around you can bed log and change to another character that you use to play when you are solo, etc.
Rested Bonuses - you have more stamina (to sprint for longer, or perhaps tolerate more G-Forces) and your food and drink deplete slower for a period of time after logging out in a bed. Doesn't have to be too extreme, but enough to make it worth it to head to a bed if you are going to be offline for more than a few hours.
Requirements for charter flights or NPC crew: Players may not care much about beds, but NPCs probably do. If you use your 890J to charter a flight, having beds as an amenity might allow you to take missions that cater to clientele that will pay more for the luxury (in the form of bonus payments, or maybe a requirement that your ship has a bed to even qualify for accepting the charter). Same if you have NPCs to crew your turrets, they will require a place to sleep and eat on board if they are to be sticking around for longer than a few hours.
Some ships also have the beds double as escape pods, so they are functional beyond just a way to log out.
I'm just hoping they add camp sites/tents etc that the player can deploy, thinking way back to Star Wars galaxies there was something kind of cool and immersive when we and my friends set up a campsite in the middle of tatooine when we were exploring for some bonus, bit of music etc.
Bed logging is to me like an extraction shooter, where you have to get back to a safe location to ensure your stuff
@@rock2k14 There has been some mention about that, but I'm guess low priority ATM or something that might come in with housing.
Also make sure uou have a full size keyboard
I have a double sized
I live inside of a house sized keyboard so I have enough keys for this game
@@asog88 that’s such an exaggeration
A couch size board that allows for help from a living crewman is enough.
@@ryanbolson23 I mean sure, of course, but barely
My 75% works just fine
I learned SO much from this on the keybindings, specifically the precision toggle, thanks Space!
This was driving me NUTS this patch!! Really appreciate seeing you can disable this :D
This really helped a ton, thank you!
Good job, covering the new changes for the experienced, and also informing new players about things
Thanks! Just starting out momentarily.
Love your wholesome vibe. Gonna check out your org and whatnot bud.
Appreciate it! Welcome to the community :)
As always ST, nailing the cinematic experiences and presentation!
the beginning of this video was breathtaking...!! this game can be so immensely beautiful...
Great vid. been playing for years and your vids are definitely some of the most informative. enough info for new comers but also got stuff for me.
that’s awesome to have a sum up of all new features
Very good guide, thanks!
Very helpful tips!
Oh wow, didn't realise how much has changed. gonna update and play tonight to explore the changes 😊
You have the best sc productions hands down.
Been watching your vids for awhile now - you’re my favorite source for SC development stuff. Love the format. Love the pacing and love that Space Tomato style.
Thank you! It's a joy informing people about Star Citizen, but I can't say I'm not hopeful to some day do more cinematic work as you do! Beautiful videos, and the potential in a game like this is wild!
Appreciate the kind words.
The most in formable video I have ever seen from you space tomato thank you ..
As always, excellent information that demystifies the verse, and as for orgs, I highly concur, an org is going to be essential to at the very least, befriend. If I wasn't already in one I'd join yours as I think your game style is very compatible to how I see the game 😊
as always ... excellent content and advise. Not just an opinion but should do
As a new player since the recent Invictus Launch I can say pretty much every single point made was super useful and will enhance my experience of the game, and it's not like I didn't do my homework before starting either - VERY well judged set of tips!
Really good breakdown! Very informative! Thank you for this.
Fantastic tips coming from one of the best SC creators out there! These are great dude!
i just started again playin SC after 2.5 years.
Im enjoying just chillin around and i dont rush take my time but thanks for this video (:
Glad you enjoy it!
Great video
This update looks great visually and runs smooth but I played for 4 hours straight and tried 5 different missions and every. single. one. was bugged. I have a stout PC too and was really looking forward to this update. 4 hours of honest gameplay and couldn't complete 1 mission.
Same I was inly able to do 1 delivery mission without it bugging then ended up with a crome stat a fine of 20000 I only had 15k so I went jail
And after you see the cool stuff you’ll realize it’s the same game loops still. 3.23.x will hopefully bring the much anticipated cargo hauling rep, hangars and freight elevators along with gear storage
Thanks 🙏 I’ll just wait until 3.74
Thank You always for your Tomato Talk Videos. 😁
finaly a good news that makes me go back to it
Mostly lookin forward to the new personal hangers, can't wait for them to be in the game :)
ill be down to join need more people to play with i got a cutless black
what is the best starting location for beginners
Very useful video. Thanks Tomato!
No problem, glad it helped!
Nearly 2 yrs since last period of play...and I've forgotten everything 😭
Great vid S.Tom thx 👍🇦🇺
How do I access the aerospace hangar or persistent hangar home is area 18
I’m finding it hard/impossible to find quantum markers once I’ve plotted a course (in nav mode and quantum mode) in an avenger titan. There seems to be no directional pointer half the time.
I hadn't had that problem yet. Hopefully it's fixed in 3.23.1, the overall quantum system feels like a halfway solution until the actual quantum travel rework.
I have noticed several ships have their Hudson broken. I cannot see my speed or master mode selected in the 315P. I cannot see speed on the a Pulse bikes, either.
Did Tomato mention in the map mode view once you select the place you are going to tap the R key to finalize the routing.
Is it no longer possible to quantum travel without having a marker targeted? Makes it slower getting to bounties.
Soo... did they fix the Merlin/Connie docking, or do I skip this patch too?
I'm really annoyed that they didn't add a toggle precision landing for all ships but instead U have to do it for each ship when U get in. My work around for that is to set the disable key to n, my landing gear button. Basically any opportunity that Ur landing hear is out is also Ur character disabling it.
Tke your landing with a little more speed,🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂 I was rolling💯👍
was thinking about trying out the game. how do you think a 8700k 2080 16gb ram would run the game?
Where is the bar shown at 13:07?
Its absolutely wild to me that they still havent added a search bar for the keybinds menu
Ooooooo that'd be VERY nice. Put it at the top of the list CIG!
only one problem with bed login you cannot do it on all ships or is super complycated by cig tnx you , since you dont see that bed log button even if you hover mouse over get up button to bring wheal up specialy in prospector
Even though I played in EPTU it's incredible to finally see all these changes live in the game. It's not perfect yet, but what a massive upgrade from what we've known for years.
Mine is on a NVME not SSD. Will it cause problems? It hasn't yet.
Hey! I wanna joint to your org but it says discord invite is invalid
Yea...haven't fired up SC since Christmas.
Not missing it.
but how much of it was optimized?
Good vid
The change of quantum from B to Left click has fucked me up so bad. lol
You have quickly become my go to creator for Star Citizen news and updates, and this video exemplifies why. Great recap on new and recently changed features.
where is the settings to remap the middle mouse button in nav mode? my middle mouse is broken and i can`t turn of quantum drive in nav mode.
Hitting again B will turn it off. Otherwise it should be in the flight movement section.
I just wish I could make it past the main menu loading screen
cant logg off in the carak tho its still fubard
This update is a HUGE QOL improvement for the game
Question remains how to make grinding worthwhile this patch?!
Ok but which game loop ISNT broken this time?
So basically it sounds like a game that is already a huge hassle just to move around and do anything in, is going to become even more of a huge hassle.
Great job Tomato! The new patch is exceeding my expectations. I was expecting it to be more like 3.18 at the beginning, but it is running really smooth. Getting a feel for how to activate Quantum took me a bit, but once I got the hang of it, it wasn't bad. I'm sure I will need some hand holding to get the new combat in Master Modes thing figured out, but that looks cool too. Loving it! --Brigadier_Beau
Bravo sir! Well done. You always impress me! I'm sharing this with all my friends who don't play quite as much as I do. Thank you. - Star_Rat
Thank you! Happ to help :)
So far, my experience has been very smooth compared to comments i am reading. I do recommend people delete their shader folder that fixes a fair few issues like clipping.
I have completed 2 box missions and many 3 bunker runs getting my rep back up. All this around Cruisader. So pretty smooth for me except Repel missions on Orison are very broken.
Now compare this to my sons gameplay on Lorvile, very laggy and rubber banding. Hanger bugs and issues taking off. Bunkers on Lorvile not loading npcs.
It is a bit night and day depending on where you start it seems.
Great intro to newcomers! Great video, love it. Keep it coming, mr. Tomato
All I'm getting is crash to desktop with the stopped unexpectedly soon as I load in..
Check the FAQs and post on the issue council about the problem. There are some programs running in the back ground too that might be causing a conflict. Go into task manager and stop some programs from running like your browser, anti-virus, malware bytes and such.
Your video quality, production, and cinematography are all so well executed. I really enjoy your content and appreciate your hard work and effort. Kudos to you and your team. 👏
There's no reason for pretty much any of the Aurora variants other than the base and LN models, and I'd argue against the latter as well.
Not looking forward to hand unloading the reclaimer. I am not even sure where the cargo door is to be able to do that
Anyone got any tips in getting into the server? Error 30000 rearing its head
Check the FAQ section, there are some solutions.
I've heard this has been showing up over the weekend. Logging and closing the launcher can work but I bet you've tried that.
I'd search the code with cig support and it'll likely pull up their helper page for that error o7
So I've been out if the game since the end of 2022. I'll admit, with the unstable game play, bugs, and griefing going on at the time, I had to take an extensive break from it. I've recently decided to jump back in and....wow. it's an entirely new game from when I left. I'm actually very excited to get back in the seat. Hope my cutlass starts 😂. Batteries are probably dead from sitting in the garage for so long. May need a jump😂
I bought this and have an infinite loading screen. Cant even get into the main menu
Lots of people been saying that making money in a small to medium ship takes even more forever now, gotta try myself but it’s not reassuring for solos who don’t have a reclaimer or C2
Great video as usual but really top notch. My experience thus far 3 missions complete lot of bugs and jank that need immediate attention. Honestly they desperately need to get Star Citizen 1.0 out where everything works and will actually have some fun gameplay.
I was unable to maneuver (pitch, roll, yaw) my ship, I logged off, then back on, but discovered, after re-boarding my ship, items in the ships inventory were gone.
I thought everything was persistent?
This, "SCM", "NAV" / center, left mouse (hold, tap) / "B" use is getting confusing.
I normally store items (clothing, gear, etc...) from my home location to the various cities and stations (except Lorville) so their available (I don't like wearing gear while in a city or station).
Your things should persist, but if you claim your ship to get it back they'll be removed.
@@SpaceTomato cargo has been vanishing for me since wave 1, now the cargo grid is ruined as of live...
anything locked to the grid is lost and can't be re-moved, just like helmets, I take them off in ship and what happens is I'm left with the box stuck to the floor, the only thing I can do is tractor it but never pick it up or interact with it.
also storing ship with cargo and recalling is still emptying the ship of everything
@@SpaceTomato Instead of claiming my ship, and losing my stuff, how do I spawn it? ;-)
The best thing about your guides is they do not tell people to buy an avenger titan. People still say this old piece of out of date advice from way back when we could not buy ships in game. In the current game, you can get a titan pretty cheaply and easily, and you can rent ships like the Connie and cutlass black with in game credits. Spending extra money is not needed. With that said, you should probably include about ship rentals in these new start/new player guides as most either do not know they exist at all or have seemingly forgotten about it.
I remember the Titan was go to for YEARS!
16:19 Who wants some noodles?!
4:53 wish the lmg ammo didnt clip into itself...
So far this update is ok and more stable than i expected !
Good points : UI, Mobiglass, the whole map system, gunfights, DLSS, EVA, and some more.
Bad points : Inventory, some interactions, 5fps servers so fauna is useless, and of course this painful master mode...
If hope CIG will listen to the criticism about master modes because it just makes me hate ship combat even more 😔
Here's a few tips: package delivery missions are still bugged, mining/scanning is bugged and the Reclaimer is bugged. Oh yeah, some folks can't get out of their habs either, lol.
I don't know if this helps when I done delivery it wouldn't give me a destination to deliver but if you open up the contracts screen it tells you we're to deliver the package
Video Starts 02:06
Make sure you dont read the keyboard layout graphic for keybinds... Pretty sure it hasnt been updated for years.
Of all things, why would they switch crouch and prone. CTRL has to be the most commonly used crouch key.
What's everyone's home planet for this patch?
I dont mind that you need to have more people to do certain things, but I whish everything is achievable with 2-4 players max atleast. I dont like playing with people I dont know or trust.
You need 32 gb ramm if you use ddr4.
EPTU worked well, LIVE 3.23 is buggy as hell right now. They changed the size of ship storage as well so good luck moving all your stuff to a different location at one time.
Ive had issues sense wave 1 Eptu so nothing new to me very disappointing.
Yeah, It's kinda fucked that I can't move all of my shit in a C2
You can buy 8 SCU containers from a cargo center. Place that in your C2 and open it. Then from your local inventory move the items to the container.
Fly to your destination and unpack 😁
@@MartijnSpiekmanI wouldn't recommend this, they've broken cargo grids, not sure on what ships and what boxes, but last night not only was my helmet becoming just a box that I can tractor beam around the ship once I took it off, also all cargo boxes that were placed on the grid then became completely dead, they lit up green and that was it, lost everything.
I wouldn't risk moving things until they hot fix
@@MartijnSpiekman
That is the fastest way to loose everything. Cargo grids are broken af, chances are that box will no longer be able to be interacted with afterwards and not show up on the inventory screen.
Do we really have server crash recovery? I had a 30k last night and someone else mentioned in game they had a 30k this morning.
Strange, it should be working. Maybe they still get through :(
The game can still have a 30k even with server recovery. Some dev said that if a server crashed because of a serious issue, then the second server will automatically crash too before taking up the charge, and we will have a 30k.
We will have LESS 30k (hopefully), but we will still have 30k.
3.23 for me was a bumpy ride.
SPK is more difficult to infiltrate, turrets are harder avoid now that master modes sacrifices shields for speed.
Arccorp mining 157 at Yela gives the client a brutal fps drop down to 1-3frames when arriving.
And verified missions causes friendly fire and Crime Stats.
3.23 is utterly broken.
Can I play this game if I have no friends?
Short answer yes. I play solo all the time but joining a ORG and hopping in chat on discord with all your buddies and doing things together ingame is very fun and immersive.
I was quite happy with my first experience in 3.23. I was expecting a way buggier experience. It is no more buggy than 3.22. That's a really good sign and gets me even more excited for XenoThreat and 3.23.X
That's not correct, there's a lot of mechanics that have been broken in 3.23, more than 3.22, they were broke from wave 1 and still an issue
@@R1PPA-C day two of playing the game with my org. definitely not any more buggy than typical Star Citizen. Leagues better than 3.18, not even close. Guess you are just having bad luck, bro
Yoyomeg is your wife?!
My first 2h of 3.23 : went from New Babbage to Port Tressler. Clipped through hangar elevator and died. Took a bunker mission, went there, not a single AI spawned. Took a mission to find a missing person in one of the Distribution centers. Went there, fought my way inside. Close to mission markers, 2 AI clipped into the floor and killed me through the floor. Logged out.
im SO HYPED for 3.23
cant wait for it to come out
It's live now, as of yesterday.
The video might be a good video, but please use the chapter function of youtube next time. When I saw that you had not done so, I stopped the video and will not watch it to the end.
also the EVA!!!
someone may have already pointed this out, but the major flight model change happened in 3.5, not 3.0.
you could somewhat say that 3.0 broke the 2.x flight model, but 3.0 did not have the fundamental changes. 3.0 was essential the same split fight as 2.x and master modes.
this patch is more buggy than 3.22, i can't even fly my hornet without my wings getting locked folded in after i deploy landing gears. such a disappointment.
Just need a little bit more patience.
Give it time. This is an insanely complex “game” and effort. Ther will be initially some issues and patches soon
Idk 3.23 is kind of bad. First off, the UI is very glitchy and not very solid. You still can't tell if you're interacting with buttons or anything and have to wait for the doors to open. I spent 1 hour finally getting some gear together to go salvaging and the game crashed. Crash recovery should work but it does not. I lost all of my starting credits. The heating up of the gatling guns is way too fast. You can shoot for maybe a second or two before you have to halt firing or risk overheating the turret. So it's not really a gatling turret, just a fast burst turret. Cargo refactor isn't in, the map is very glitchy. The only positive is at least the servers feel somewhat smooth. But aside from smooth servers, the only real update for this 3.23 patch is the UI and the EVA system that runs okay as it is right now.
That first problem is a server perfromance issue, not UI. The UI update tells us how to interact, but the servers still struggle to keep up at times. That being said, I'm sorry the crash recovery didn't work. It sounds like it can be a miss at times, possibly this is because of it's first implementation in the live game, but it worked quite well in the testing serers.
The cargo refactor not being in sucks, agreed. I don't think that makes the patch bad, though. I also don't know anything about a gatling gun!
I would check out the distribution center combat missions, they are quite fun with friends. The starmap and interaction system also improve the game quite a bit in my opinion, and updated FPS mechanics make the game way more fun for me.
Not as good as it could have been, but I'd be interested in hearing what better updates we've seen.
The new map is cool. New FPS stuff is cool (when it works). Ship travel takes getting used to. Its nothing special. Master modes is complete garbage. Its gallaga with better graphics and less stability.
Star Citizen , you can polish a turd ... but at the end of the day CIG deleiveres on 100% of the content with 5% of the functionality ... FACTS !! Another classic patch release where the majority of the content releases is broken , bugged , or very very inconsistent . 100% expected LOL !!!
Majority of the content in the patch is broken? Like the features from the release view? Which of those are you seeing broken.
This is like cyberpunk 2077 with new updated nexus mods.
But Cyberpunk released the game. SC didn't its alpha for this reason.
