Wow so wonderful for ya'll to put this out and it was really fascinating hearing about everything behind the lore. We LOVE what you do to bring the universe alive and so looking forward to 3.0!
How many community content videos have you seen on combat? Combat is one of the hardest things to get correct in a game which is one of the reasons they focus on it first. Be calm. It's all coming
Just catching up on the lore. Thanks for creating these lore videos and the overall lore of the game for us! I know its a thankless job but your team is creating the legend that we will live by in the game and we greatly appreciate it. Keep up the great work!!!!
that Darksiders comment gave me an idea. you could in theory design an alien race that exhibits a bipolar on a grande scale behavior, such in that based on and deeply tied to their mental state and inner feelings. this could have physical and psychological reprocussions like skin tone, or patterns, hair color, eyes, and could also play into a separate culture within the species such as style or behavioural norms. could also manipulate how one 'side's' organical features, react to certain minerals or other organics. the worse they expose themselves to those experiences, the worse the genes augment.
Thansks guy's ;D I have a crucial question a bout "after release game". How will you manage to add more system, and avoid a massive rush of player on those systems and will those systems make player abandon "old sytems"?
Keep in mind the player to NPC ratio is really low. they'll have to populate systems with enough resources for NPC and players combined so if anything i think we'll have trouble fighting to get a hold on the economy at all. i doubt we'll see much player migration due to resource depletion so much as people just want to keep expanding.
+Sir Aroun I very much doubt that _known_ systems will be hidden from players. Instead, there will be hidden access points aside from the known ones, as well as some additional to-be-discovered systems further down the line. +PmClh I'd imagine the easiest way to avoid abandoned systems would be to give them all something useful to see/find/access. For example, we know that Stanton will be the first complete system, but it also features several major manufacturers, making it the best place to get their equipment from without incurring additional costs due to transportation. Crusader will always be a good place for Starfarers to fill their tanks from.
Very interesting, they say that they drew inspiration from the fall of the Roman Empire, I guess that sheds some light on Squadron 42's and Star Citizen's story a bit more. That means (if I'm right) the Vanduul are the barbarian hordes and probably while the army is occupied with them, the UEE will be destroyed from within by internal political struggles. Which (I believe) leads to a universe in SC where the UEE is in crumbles and the military scattered, and it's up to players (aka civilians) to either protect mankind against the Vanduul on its borders, or become pirates for survival - increasing the need for mercenaries and bounty hunters. Quite interesting
18:55 I love you guys. But did Steven and Michael happen to mention that the Earth's moon is tidal locked? Cuz you missed that and it has irked me from the day you released that map. :P
I have a question for you Star Citizen creators or fanatics, I'm guessing you can play with friends just by meeting at a space station and you can do missions together I'm guessing? But can other people come in or INTERRUPT that mission if they too have the same mission? Even if that is a thing you should make certain tasks and missions that are open to EVERYONE on that server, with a large scale mission. Like a risk and reward type mission, you can go for it, as it has a lot or good loot/money but more people can come and try the mission either teaming with others there or try and kill them along with the mission.
R Das they want to have something like that. Also they wanna have 'converse' missions, like there is 3 missions from the uee to search a black box near a crash side but then there are also 3 missions from the outlaws to defend it.
Star Citizen Can we PLEASE get word on the Genesis Starliner? It's not listed in any development reports open to the public and no one's said anything about it in months.
I hope not. It doesn't help that they couldn't even be bothered to mention it during the Anniversary, at all. No spoofs in the fake commercials, no announcements, no anything. It's as if they just tossed the entire ship in the trash and forgot about it.
Ariel Fetters it is one of the least bought ships and when they flesh out information on it, people are going to realise the game is basically p2w with a genesis. The ship is basically based on mini-games and NPCs which would require a long time to develop, especially for a not very popular ship. It is also a useless ship unless they implement Jump points and that will release in 4.0. Right now they are bringing out the very popular ships that some people have been waiting for over 3 years for (BMM, Caterpillar). The genesis is a quite recent release and would take a long time to make, in 2018 you will be able to fly it.
Ariel Fetters I imagine that since each of the up coming updates is focusing on a set number of carriers, perhaps one of the 4.X will feature civilian transport.
elitespa when you bought a gamepack, you weren't buying the game. You were funding the development of the game and got the game as a bonus. Also, games take years to build. For instance, gtaV took 7 years to make, and I don't think they were being quite as ambisious as these guys. Give 'em a break. The creator even said that he is willing to delay the game for as long as it's needed for the game to be complete. We don't want this game to be released before it's done do we? Let me rephrase that, we don't want to have another no man's sky, do we? I will say again, give em a break.
Could the team look at the tabletop RPG Eclipse Phase for a number of story elements that need addressing in the game universe. You need to talk about why there aren't AI, cybernetic and genetic enhancement, holograms, factionalism, post-scarcity economies, atomic fabricators, etc... I don't expect the creative team to add all of these things, I just ask that they explain why they're not there.
excellent video. I see you had troubles creating the full page screenshots from your webpage. Theres a neat trick in Firefox that does it all for you. Hit Shift-F2. A little command line appears on the bottom. Type screenshot --fullpage and hit enter. Screenshot is created. stackoverflow.com/questions/13158083/take-a-full-page-screenshot-with-firefox
Nobody likes less Corporations if you can give us more Corporations with detail explanation, I will take more every time. Less Corporations is always redundant, and always utilize in games. It gets boring real fast quick like that, because to me that's always cliche.
MAKE STAR CITIZEN FOR CONSOLE!!!!!! It would be so good and would definitely sell more copies than pc would. But obviously keep it on PC I think this game has great potential but you need to expand your availability of the game, think about all the people who don't have good gaming computers or anything like that because I'm not spending 1000 dollars on a PC to only play one game! (It's not like this comment is be seen any way😞)
That's the reason I never touch a console. I'll not buy a mediocre PC with rubbish controls for a few hundred bucks just to play a few exclusive titles no matter how good they are. I'd rather spend a few hundred more on a proper gaming rig that I can upgrade when it starts getting outdated. So no, SC is not coming to console as consoles can't run it, nor do they have the necessary controls. Mouse and keyboard really is a bare minimum here.
Why isn't this in VR? These 2D FPS/Flight games are ridiculous and shouldn't even be made anymore. Having the gun stuck in the corner of the screen while your field of view is akin to a keyhole. Its unplayable nonsense.
A surprise video on Lore, have a great new year and thanks for the video!
This is easily Jared's best interview. He's really improving!
Great episode. Lore is one of my favorite parts to this game world. Thanks, team!
Go back to your holiday! Take a break people.
Anyway, I was looking forward this.
Yes, or they just used TH-cam's video schedule function. :)
no holiday i want 3.0 XD
Wow so wonderful for ya'll to put this out and it was really fascinating hearing about everything behind the lore. We LOVE what you do to bring the universe alive and so looking forward to 3.0!
The lore's one of my favorite parts. Love having the depth. Nice job, CIG!
Side note: I'm planning on spending a lot of time in the Turtleverse, and really looking forward to when the aliens start getting their pass.
great! love hearing about this type of stuff.
I'd love to see the details about the planets like orbital velocity, size, day length etc in the starmap :D
I hope they care about that as much as they care about combat.
Sexy Pineapple heh lol...
I'd try to make simulations of the systems in something like universe sandbox or something :P
How many community content videos have you seen on combat? Combat is one of the hardest things to get correct in a game which is one of the reasons they focus on it first. Be calm. It's all coming
I like to see you cheerful. Enjoy holidays :)
Just catching up on the lore. Thanks for creating these lore videos and the overall lore of the game for us! I know its a thankless job but your team is creating the legend that we will live by in the game and we greatly appreciate it. Keep up the great work!!!!
sure appreciate you guys making these videos for us Star Citizens.
What a wonderful team!
Awesome Episode! A HUGE thank you to the lore team. I couldn't do what I do if you didn't do what you do!
Thank you guys! Very nice surprise!
Great episode -- thank you!
Yay! Just when I was starting to get withdrawal symptoms, CIG provides! =D
Thanks for another year of lore guys! Have a happy new year and see you all back in 2017! ❤
".. soon being a relative term"...
Great work CIG another great video
Thanks CGI for keeping everything together!, makes players life so much easier. Happy new year everyone
Now this was a nice holiday surprise! Thank you CIG.
More like this please.
Great stuff! Happy New Year to CIG and fellow backers!
Great I enjoyed that, very interesting. Thanks guys and happy new year!
this was a great idea, very nice to watch
i can't wait to sit down and read all the SC lore when we get close to release
Ooh, special edition!
Jared is looking good!
Best team! Love your work
Pandora planet please, and also add the blue and flying creatures. Huge home tree would also be neat
Jeeez... I want to go sleep, now I gotta watch this.... Thanks CiG for cutting 25 mins off my sleep! :<
Very interesting. Always liked to know how you develope the games lore.
looking good, team!
This is a great video.
Move your cup!!!! aaghhhh or knock it off already!
*The suspense!! It's killing meee!!!*
nice bonus content... and some widescreen love (even if I have to juryrig YT's code to display it properly)... thanks!

Ah the lore team is. Awesome creative people!
Soon™
Hey Riley,
Hold down alt key and press "0153" then let go of alt. ;)
This was a surprise - awesome to watch. But I was distracted 90% of the time due to Cherrie.
Thansks guy's ;D
I have a crucial question a bout "after release game".
How will you manage to add more system, and avoid a massive rush of player on those systems and will those systems make player abandon "old sytems"?
first off they will start out hidden and older system will have more infrastructure.
i was thinking more about new resources rush, and big "guild will found those new past quite easly i think, but we'll see, you're right :D
Keep in mind the player to NPC ratio is really low. they'll have to populate systems with enough resources for NPC and players combined so if anything i think we'll have trouble fighting to get a hold on the economy at all. i doubt we'll see much player migration due to resource depletion so much as people just want to keep expanding.

Crusader will always be a good place for Starfarers to fill their tanks from.
Pm Clh probably there will be unknown jump point you can find
is there a link to the lore guides?

Can we PLEASE get word on the Genesis Starliner? It's not listed in any development reports open to the public and no one's said anything about it in months.
Probably not till after 4.0 when we get jump points and multiple solar systems in game.
I hope not. It doesn't help that they couldn't even be bothered to mention it during the Anniversary, at all. No spoofs in the fake commercials, no announcements, no anything. It's as if they just tossed the entire ship in the trash and forgot about it.

I agree! I want to know whats going on with the Genesis Starliner not alot of word for a long time.
Ariel Fetters I imagine that since each of the up coming updates is focusing on a set number of carriers, perhaps one of the 4.X will feature civilian transport.
When will the new schedule report go live on the website?
Patrik Adolfsson when they get back from winter vacation. So likely during the first half of January.
oh, they're on vacation??? I didn't get that memo.
Patrik Adolfsson yea the close for the year on December 23rd and open the first week of January
LORE TEAM!
About that plaque with all the Murray Cup winner...... WANT!!!! ;)
Will we see a ATV this week? Or are you guys still on holidays?
Second
No atv this week?
Hey CIG, will some of the alien races be playable?
It's triggering me having that coffee cup so close to the edge...
preview 3.0 locations pls :)
2.6 only to keep you happy
Sooo much orange!
also, could someone tell me all of the alien races known of up to now?
Are you ever going to finish this game? bought it 2 years ago and still in development, come on guys!
elitespa You're kidding, right?
elitespa when you bought a gamepack, you weren't buying the game. You were funding the development of the game and got the game as a bonus. Also, games take years to build. For instance, gtaV took 7 years to make, and I don't think they were being quite as ambisious as these guys. Give 'em a break.

Are you being sarcastic or just st...
Cherie! Where you been at? :D
Have good time off guys... you deserve it. And come back fresh and get that cheese planet in there 😬
Less cringy then usual +1
Could the team look at the tabletop RPG Eclipse Phase for a number of story elements that need addressing in the game universe.

Worlds largest diamond confirmed! XD
what about a moon out of cheese would that be possible?
At 3:45 a airplane flew over.
Early :D the cringe is real!
It had me cracking up though, David and the team have good bant.
Switch the camera Jared
BenThePerson101 I remember
3.0 ETA ? please
I wish that Star Citizen was on Xbox one or PlayStation 4
Quick someone write a fan fiction about a cheese planet!
a meca in star citizen
Why does everyone pronounce it Adam WISER when he himself pronounces it Adam Weezer? I'm talking to you Star Citizen
cheese planets and milk giants:-D
20:59 Sorry, but that's only theoretical; and the bottom line is that if it is indeed possible, it won't happen for _trillions_ of years.
they didn't mention all the drugs involved
Wait what? a daimond planet? *invents hyper space travel*

Vampires can't exist this close to the sun.

The fidelity and detail of this will make it impossible to run on console, so its not gonna happen
Uncool Mistly Controllers don't have enough buttons to play the game.
That's the reason I never touch a console. I'll not buy a mediocre PC with rubbish controls for a few hundred bucks just to play a few exclusive titles no matter how good they are. I'd rather spend a few hundred more on a proper gaming rig that I can upgrade when it starts getting outdated.

Yeah thats not going to happen
