I think they did a great job conveying just how enormous of a threat the Vanduul are too the UEE. This gives me halo ce vibes where we are on the back foot trying to catch up
My grand kids are going to love this game when it comes out in 30 years
Wow! But you can enjoy it unti then.
@@osuave7811 no, he is a cool guy who only talk sh+t online.
@@DrPet80 So that was the source of that o💩dor😂
@@DrPet80 Hes actually right. hundreds of millions of dollars into a game thats been in development for double digit years now and still isnt even fully playable. i would know. i play SC. hes actually spitting facts. its a money sink, which is why its going to stay that way till the developers feel they cant milk it anymore. people spend hundreds of dollars on a single pledge ship. so why stop there?
@Spoonypictures i realy do not understand this thinking. The moment they release sq24/sc they will make a sh!t ton of money.
Basebuilding/stationbuilding alone will bring them another 200mio.
Not releasing a game bc they can milk is unreal. No one at cig is getting filthy rich atm. You do not have over a thousand ppl working to get rich on a non released game.
Star Wars hasn’t had a space battle this cool since Rogue One, maybe.
Well, yeah, Rouge One would be one of the space battles of history if their focused more on the Space Battle and protagonists than on some randoms at the land battle
@@nosense8744 Land battle wasn't that bad in rogue one.
I'd rate Rogue One's space battle above this tbh.
@@dess3597 Yeah ik, but we've seen lots of land battles in star wars and practically no Real Space Battle besides Clone Wars and Rebels
Star Wars is cool? HAHAHAHAHA
The attention to detail during this whole fight is what blows my mind. I must have watched it 5 or 6 times by now and I am still finding new things. My fave sequence is how Bishop purposefully dropped the shields on the Krugeri much lower than the hits would have taken them to trick the Kindship into using its main weapon on it, just to bring them back up last second to deflect the hit. Or the way the kingship shoots all those missiles at the Krugeri just to drop the shields as much as possible to ensure penetration.
Or how Bishop times sending in SQ42 to just as the Kingship uses its main weapon, probably assuming the massive power drain would weaken the shields enough
It really feels like both sides are really giving it their all and not just purposefully being incompetent for the sake of the story.
Wow, good catch! I was so focused on the cinematic I didn’t realize the meta plan in bishops actions! I love the battle even more now!
The amount of lore they could create with a dedicated team would be series/movie worthy similar to Arcane, especially since there hasn't been GOOD 'hard sci fi' in theatres for awhile.
What is this a movie a game looks so cool
@@TheBryceWadeThere is a ton of lore already and I'm sure there will be more to come. They even had lingvists making different alien languages
@@johnjoeodonnell6535 the prologue of a game
I hadn't seen such a spectacular battle since I played Mass Effect (defending Earth). This prologue is the most epic thing I've seen. Everything is impressive, even the music is epic. SC no longer has any competition that can match its level.

i'll be more impressed when it actually releases in playable format.
If they suck with the game the can go making 3d scifi action films in this style ;)
Being a gunner in a hammerhead would be scary
it already is
It is like being in a WW2 bomber underside ball turret, but worse. So, yeah, scary as hell. One direct hit to the right are, and your turret goes spinning off into space with you in it, and no way out.
Much like being a ball turret gunner on one of the old Flying Fortress.
You sir then have obviously no idea of a gunner of the warhammer 40k imperial navy
That B-17 ball gunner vibe
"my brother you ARE the escape pod"
This is possibly THE MOST EPIC introduction to a video game ever made!!

@@elenthd4542 A mind blowing experience.
This amazing, this gives Star Trek vibes with mass effect. Looks utterly stunning and the music is top tier!
The cool thing is this was made using in-game assets. The ships, the ammo, the explosion...you will meet them again in SC.
YEssssss!
Bruh, I cannot wait for resource management. Thorston confirmed ballistic rearming with resource management -- so you will be like those guys in Matrix Revolutions, chugging ammo boxes into the resource slot to refill ballistic cannons! That will be so cool!!!!
The problem with Hollywood space battles lately is that one side has to be comically inept in every single one of them. Or in case of the Star Wars sequels, both sides.
Exactly the king kong movies were plain stupid with the Asian guys
Scarif was pretty good, but I guess that wasn't a sequel.
@@hypothalapotamus5293 pretty sure that the empire where incredibly incompetent during the battle of scarrif.
However there is a good explanation in lore for that and when vader shows up, it all goes to shit for the rebels so I'll give that one a pass.
@@johnbenoy7532 It's easily explained as them being on a peacetime level of readiness and nobody expecting the entire rebel fleet to jump into the sector. After the initial drubbing, they actually put up a fight.
Not unbelievable, especially when you think about actual naval battles. If I had a sci fi nebula battle series based on the Guadalcanal and Solomons campaigns, I think people would reject it for being dumb as soon as Savo Island (dumb complacency), the first naval battle of Guadalcanal (engaging IJN at point blank range because a rear admiral didn't believe in radar, which oddly sort of worked), or Tassafaronga rolled around.
@@hypothalapotamus5293 No, Scarif too was pretty dumb "Lets ignore those big juicy open hangar bays and let all those TIE's launch at their leisure so they can ruin our day"
i ain't gonna lie, it reminds me of Space Battleship Yamato with those big guns and Battlestar Galactica with those fighters zipping around
I think it's a rehash of of Wing Commander, both the movie and the videogames...
The Alien fighters look like Dralthi, the capital ships look like they're the Nephalim, and the scenario is a cross between the Wing commander movie's Tiger Claw ambush and the game's typical jump point defense mission with big ship (that may or may not have a SBY inspired death cannon) coming at your carrier.
I love watching huge Space battles like these😊💯🔥
Closest I ever felt to the Battlestar Galactica space battle scenes
Ive waited 12 years for this. One more wont kill me 😊
Two, but I agree
@@Omaricon Well Going Out in fact we have only got 2 more months left in 2024, I really really hope they're not waiting for a fall 2026 release. Let us hope they have it out by at least summer ;( But who knows maybe instead of following their usual shenanigans they'll surprise us and act like Scotty from star trek tell us a later time than deliver early ;) One can dream!
This is CIG. You know it's going to be 11:59 PM on Dec 31, 2026.
Then you should buy another Idris, because they need 120 million dollars per year to keep it going 😂
@@robbhays8077 More like 2028 then. 😂 If 2026 then maybe beta only or only Episode One. Source: "This is CIG" 😂
This calls for Retribution. Bring out the Retribution dreadnaught.
In the lore didn’t they stop building it?? I forget
The Retribution may no longer be cannon. Mostly due to the feasibility of putting a ship like that ingame. The resource cost to develop and run it ingame would be astronomical.
@@splatoonistproductions5345 Im pretty sure that the main Story line will involve Admiral Bishop advocating for increased Defense Spending after the Battle of Vega and therefor the Building of the first Retribution Class Dreadnought. Where it goes from there, or if this comes to pass even in the first Episode of Squadron 42 I cannot say. But it is very possible that after the events of all Episodes the Restribution might be retired.
@@elfwyn8707 Wouldn't the lesson of this battle be though that strike craft are the key to bringing down kingships, not capital-based weaponry? If anything's getting its budget increased it ought to be carrier and bomber production; and possibly development of new bomber designs given the retaliator's age.
@@cass7448 As they lost half their fleet in order to spread the fighter defenses and attention of the Kingship thin enough for the surprise attack I doubt that this would work twice in a row. Having experienced the firepower fo the Kingship it would be logical to have a bigger Gun that is able to wipe away a Kingship sized Vessle.
Love how that hammerhead at 3:20 just gets absolutely smacked
probably a size 12 gun
@@laurentguyot3362 That indeed was a S12 Gun.

Something I noticed. One of the SQ42 pilots is flying a Sabre.
Dude we need an audio breakdown from you cause holy fuck the audio is good
its sq42 music for the game, not his
@@TheIbrahim711 I know lol, but he can break down the audio from the gameplay no?
@@wiebevdmeij it was a 50/50 of you not knowing lol, but if I had to take a guess he took audio snips, and then overplayed them again.
@@TheIbrahim711 Suggestions and ideas that could become reality 🤫
This battle looks so much like the battle in "Serenity" the movie of the Show "Firefly" lol especially the part "Will somebody fire!!!" or "Im a leaf on the wind..." best show/movie ever and this battle may be a clear reference to it.
Yeah definitely the shot at the beginning with the enemy fleet bearing down on them from a higher angle.
Looks awesome, loving how the characters actual,y look like the actors too.
By the time this game is finished my grandkids will have an actual starship.
Win win I guess? 😂
dont you mean that this will release in time as a flight sim trainer for their actual starship😂❤❤❤. maybe a boxed set like how video cards come with games. "heres your brand new spaceship. it comes with a copy of SC/S42."
2:24 a fun lore tidbit the reason they said "Getting a weird power spike from the king ship" is the UEE (humans) have never won a battle when a King ship is present. Most have never survived the encounter. So they are not fully aware of it's capabilities.
this is scary levels of cool and also concern. On one hand no one needs to be told this is an amazing and top tier cinematic that goes alot harder than most even try.
On the otherhand why we are seeing this cinematic already makes me concerned that they believe we NEED to see this cinematic to keep the hype for the game alive.
I hope it lives up to the dream but many of us also know the realistic limits, we will see
Finally... after so much searching of space ships or battles I found the ultimate vid showcasing both! I'm not an alien ship kinda guy, but the way they showed the main ship charge up, or the way the back wings unfolded and in turn was a holder for thousands of rockets gave me a lil nub I cannot lie.
Можешь ведь ты лжец
@@ed_surovv and what did I lie about lol
This reminded me quite a bit about Shivans coming against GTVA fleet in Freespace 2. About this we're getting proper fleet battles in space flight games again.
Way fewer beams however even if we like to joke about Beam Citizen.
Freespace 1 & 2 are unmatched
@@Zork0815 It's ridiculous those were in the 90s. I don't think the flying itself was that good but those games had a really good atmosphere.
Can’t wait to see more Vanduul ships in game
Not gonna lie, I heard/saw Mark Hamil in the cockpit, and I immediately thought, "Is this a Wing Commander game?! 🤔"
Those bad guys aren't very cat like ☹️
@terryd8692 -- I know, but the Kilrathi had been soundly defeated by this time. I thought it might be an introduction to a new enemy
My favorite part is when those torpedoes sail straight and true into the side of the kingship.
With the bagpipes playing and those torpedoes wrecking the kingship, I actually marked out.
@@Glorymoon97 i like the fact that the first few torps damage the armored hull and the next torps penetrate the hull exploding in the inside.
What an epic Space Battle, love it, big Weapons, Big Explosions & amazing Dogfights
WOW! This is the most epic battle ever! Spectacular!
This is still a work in progress? Damn. Hope to see the finished product sometime.
🤣
Hell yeah! I wanted to do this but you did it amazingly.
Did you meant to match the 42 with 4:20? Brilliant :D
In the official video it’s also at 42 minutes. Coincidence? I think now! ;D
Best soundtrack I've heard in a game in a long time. Pedro killed it on this.
its not Pedro
Poor Geoff Zanelli rarely gets proper recognition, everyone always assumes Pedro scores both games
Pedro’s amazing, but this is Geoff Zanelli’s work
I thought it was super bad, bro just trumpets through the whole thing.
Geoff Zanelli, same guy who did the absolutely awesome Outlander soundtrack.
ICONIC at all levels.
They need to do some work in-game to match the way the ships move in this cinematic to how ships move in-game. Currently large ships move like they have no weight. They turn and stop way too easily.
Bro what are you on about...
Have you flown a constellation/Corsair?
And a caterpillar feels golden.
@@Virulent-wolf Constellation flies like a mosquito in-game compared to even the Hornets in this cinematic
@@Di-Ferr so.... you're going off of a dramatized cut scene....

上も下も無い宇宙空間で、艦艇にブリッジが有って全艦上向きとか、この映像を見ている人達に気を使った、重力に心を奪われた人達の為に作った映像だな。
それを言うのは無粋なんだろうな。
宇宙空間で音がしたり、機体に翼がついていたり。
I understand they have to add sound effects to keep audience engaged, but at least try to imagine these exterior shots of the battle being dead silent. It would be terrifying to know you can't hear a thing and death could come from any direction without warning. The only sounds you'd hear in this battle is the rattling of your guns firing and the thuds of impacts against your hull.
In one of their previous demos, they showed off a realistic audio mode option. All you hear is your ships engines and weapons resonating dampened noise and frame stress flex creaks through the chassis into the cockpit. You also only hear enemy shots that strike the ship and resonate through the hull. For those that want the extra immersion they have us covered.
@@eltreum1 Oof that's some bonus points right there then.
Why not just muffle them abit like you’re hearing them through the hull?
It's also odd that the barrels of their cannons are rifled. What would be the point of it? There's no atmosphere in space? The smoke from the guns firing too. That amount of smoke means they're still using chemical reactions to fire their munitions and the more smoke, the worse the ratio of the chemicals being used to fire the munitions. Ideally there should be just a flicker of light.
@@Sujad There is atmospheric combat in the game too. Anything in space that wants to use combustion as a propellant is going to need to catalyze or inject their own oxygen. They are not going for full hardcore space sim because that is not fun,.
Forget the game. I want to see it as a movie.
i love the way the fighters run face first into the hammerhead, and it doesn't give af! that was badass
Considering all the announcements for orgs and factions and all that, I wouldn’t be surprised if large orgs end up duking it out like this on a fairly regular basis. It’s those online org v org wars I find to exciting and fascinating, ever since those extremely large battles from what was it? Eve online? those wars. god I hope we can do something like that. and with possible npc hiring systems to help crew ships and fighters, you could literally have armies and armada’s at your disposal.
Probably won’t be Eve Online level for a long time. That game sees thousands of players in single battles practically monthly, the largest one having upwards of 9,400, ships, but the biggest difference is Eve each player controls a single (or multiple) ships all on their own whilst Star Citizen has multicrew. But the battles will still be insane!
@@borgthepig yea, still tho it’ll have perhaps some of the most complex warfare, faction on faction play, management and all that prolly in any game to feature massive online player presence ever. While deffo not to the same scale, last I remember there must’ve been like 10K ships on average in a number of battles, it’ll still be a spectacle to behold won’t it? Just hope someone is recording it when it happens so we can get some dope cinematics
@@borgthepig what will be nice though is that hopefully with meshing the battles are actually playable and tactics like we see here with SQ42 can actually be employed. Tactics aren't really used in eve battles as it's all dps calc.
@@AtheosTheAtheist yea Eve tactics are basically what ships you bring to the battle and knowing when to retreat. That’s basically it 😂
@@AtheosTheAtheistall true, I’d imagine sc would be more skill and strategy and coordination/cooperation based than anything right?
Cool movie that you get to play… sometimes.
Damn this is very good !!
Hell yeah!!!! This bests mass effect and all other space battles!!!!!!!
Reminds me a little of The expanse battles, BSG, Wing Commander, and a game called Haegemonia, for those epic battles and effects. 10/10!!
I could watch this for hours, really cool 👍👍
First half reminded my of BSG and ME3. Pretty awesome. Second half reminded me of Wing Commander days joining the ship as a fresh pilot.
Can't wait to see where this goes. Hope it stays on schedule.
Bro this is dope as hell
This just in. All of this got scrapped to make yet another version of it and Star Citizen. We understand this may be frustrating for you. But we swear if you just give us another 250 million dollars we will make this game!
Why not $300bil
Seeing all the space debris all I can think is that sector of space will be unapproachable by anyone for a timespan of about forever.
That's what salvage crews are for
@@boopjack9522 All the junk is going to keep moving at the speed they were ejected with.
The salvage crew would have to pick up debris going at several times the speed of sound-
Salvaging is easy if the object stands still.

Wow ! Super cool 😎 to watch
Wow! One chap made This? It’s top gun in space!
Definitely not a one man job, it’s been around a decade of building a whole studio and designing and redesigning the game to reach this
@@dukeofhazard420 its a scam, unfinished game that is still scamming people today.
@@stephenlyon1358 for 35 bucks I’ve gotten way more gameplay out of this game then any crappy COD repeat or similar game. If that’s a scam then it still puts a lot of games to shame
@@dukeofhazard420👍 logically spot on👍
good thing my video didnt crash
Ik I’ve already commented on this vid, but man I love the battle and the music. Tho I am curious as to the exact number of ships of each class in the 2nd fleet. I mean we see the idris, the javelin, the hammerhead and bengal and the sorta cruiser/battlecruiser, but I’m not sure how many of each ship there is aside from the bengal and the battle cruisers like Argus. aside from the bengal and 5 “Argus” battle cruisers, I think I counted something like 6-8 javelin destroyers, about 8+ idris frigates and about 10+ hammerheads at least. I’m just trying to figure out the exact composition of this fleet to try and gauge its strength in each respective aspect, like anti fighter, anti cap ship etc, while tryna find out how flexible it all is. Reason for that is I see a lot of ships like at least 3 javelin destroyers in flames by the end, like 4+ idris frigates, at least 5 hammerheads exploding or wrecked with at least 1 battlecruiser being cleaved in half.
obviously I’m tryna figure out what the fleet is geared towards and what it would otherwise be capable of if it had to send a number of ships elsewhere while the core part of the fleet and the bengal stay in some area’s defensively, as the ship and the battle cruisers aren’t anywhere near as fast as javelins or idris ships.
IIRC the fleets are a legacy (for want of a better word) of the Xian cold war. A peer enemy - or at least the UEE thought they were a peer. Since the Xian were "fighting" a two front war I think in the end they are much more formidable than the UEE ever imagined.
It's kind of funny that the barrels of space warships still have rifling😂
man, imagine superman as your partner on this. you got to step up your game.
This is like trying to hold out endgame crisis is Stellaris
Bro, if it’s in the future already, and this is the naval battles of the future in space then those are Hella bullets and precision guided weapons here
I really am looking forward to this
the hell is that upgunned bangel? some sort of BB conversion?
That’s just the bengal as it’s supposed to be. It’s more of a battleship that can carry fighters than a pure carrier
The Argus which you can see in this same battle is the true carrier
Cruisers. If you look at the holo display behind Oldman you can see the ship names and designations from time to time. There is also an escort carrier of similar lines without the turret. They are a bit smaller than the Bengal.
Reminded me a scene from Firefly
1000%
this looks amazing if it ever comes out...
gives me goosebumps its richard harrow
When Gary Oldman says "Go!", you better go. 😂
A new "Wing Commander" like this would be nice
the new Wing Commander is exactly what this is lol
May the force be with you
Finally they have done the render that took 20 years... now we can wait for another 40 years to finally get the full mmorpg game
At least we can enjoy it for the next 40yrs😂
@@osuave7811 i might be dead by then xdd
Last time I saw a battle this epic was in Babylon 5
What is the class of the ship "Argus" at 1:56?
Oh it was an upside-down version of Bengal. Nevermind.
@@johnc658more of a carrier focused version than the normal bengal which is more of a battleship
@@dukeofhazard420 Got it, thanks.
Looks a bit smaller than the Bengal. Maybe a heavy crusier? The Bengals shield were also good enough to tank the main gun.
Someone needs to sue the human shipwrights. The PDC's on the main carrier are in the direct line of sight with the heavy dorsal guns. They better hope they don't have a target down the center-line because they will have to blow away their own missile defense guns.
Coolest space battles since ME2
Awesome work....
Game of the year 2016!
And beyond 👍
I have had this game since 2016, has evolved since then.
Some of these shots are very similar to the space battle in Serenity
That pilot - "want me to learn your name?" Sounded like Mark Hamil
That was awesome.
'See that massive ship with the big gun? Concentrate fire on that' - said no one ever apparently
"Please, sir, can I have some more?!"
is it actually coming out??! omg finally
I backed SC/42 a few times. Nice videos great eye candy and visuals. Now put that energy into, IDK finishing the game? Or making a release version? Honestly I want to play before I die of old age.
the alien looking (i am assuming bad guys) smaller fighter that launched from the big ship looked like a Goauld death glider lol
I approve this message.
It looks amazing tho i have too say my 1 gripe would be they didn't make fighter pilot look very exiting in this, to me. but the fleet fight looks amazing
Should of cleared the lane on the counter-fighters during the Kingship attack with like 4 Ares Infernos. Full send, all in, BRRRRRRT.
Looks very pretty but will it ever be finished?
What is this from? So awesome!
I will applaud it when I know it is more than a tech demo.
Star Citizen almost had my money back in the Kickstarter, glad I didn't.
Oh man this is so cool I only wish I still remember the code I got when I bought this 10 fu*** years ago!
Wow! And yet SC is still around and growing😅
@@osuave7811 Feature creep mostly 😂
The canons on the warships has rifled barrels. Does the rifling has an effect on projectiles fired in space?
Incredible scenes, fantastic. What's expected release date, is it 2042?
Long life to the Vanduul Empire
Serious BSG vibes here! I can't wait!!

Tactic? Strategy? Nah. Just spread out and shoot at the closest thing to you.
