I still can't believe that in 2017 they had a such nice game already with all these things, and we are so many years later and we still can't play SQ42...
I was in Awe for 1 hour and 6 mins. I have seen it 20 times with the whole family. I have watched the commentary 4 times. Everytime I see Mark Hamill perform, takes me back to the Wing Commander series and my time playing that amazing game. CIG has made a amazing thing here. Not only will we have an amazing game, but all the tech and tools they are using here will be used by future games from here on out. This is history in the making! I am, more than ever, fully committed to this journey!
From the director of the NOC at Globix, New York 1998 to the CEO of RSI 2012, incredible Chris, incredible. I been dreaming of a game like this for all my life. Great admiration.👍
Wow I can't believe I only paid a extra $15 for SQ42. I feel like I should be paying this company more money! -checks my elaborate hangar ...yea nevermind.
seriously. Think i had to scrape my jaw off the floor a few times. The coil section was epic. the lightning effects gives a lot of atmosphere to the game. And a bit of stealth gameplay more in line with some of the old metal gear games.
naaah i dont care at all about single player coop is always better if any effort going towards squadron 42 doesnt also help star citizen I get pretty pissed as I have to wait long enough as it is, they should just make the whole squadron 42 campaign at least 4 player coop
As cool as a full co-op campaign would be, you risk muddling or even losing some of the personal relationships and suddle details that Chris has envisioned for his story.
What's the Tonk joke about? I am from Germany and i first thought it would be a joke from World of Tanks. Like those eastern Europeans with their "stronk tank pleyerer" but it means something different or?
1:58:23 The guy there has a very heavy French accent, so it sounds as if he is saying TONK, and it sounds so awesome that it might as well be the official name of the vehicle. :D

S42 Slice is great. Needs some work is a given. While most might not think of the fact that S42 and SC are using the same tech which is currently SC 3.0 Alpha, it's the same Universe, and the same game, engine, and assets. It should come as no surprise. Very much happy to see it progressing. Happy Holidays everyone.
Anyone notice that Brian Chambers looks super happy in this video ? Usually he always have his super serious game face on, and the tired and stressed face on ... but he's sure is smiling alot and looked well rested in this video. Glad to see him feeling or looking good.
Actually, I have noticed an apparent improvement in his mood (and not just his) since they started promising "3.0 soon". Yea, looks good. At least the difference between "fatigue and hope" and "fatigue and confidence".
Loving the slower pace of Sq42 at the beginning. I was afraid they would make CoD type twitch shooter, like every FPS game made in last 10 years... Well i wasn't afraid, I know CIG is smarter than that. thanks CIG and I can't wait till I give Sq42 a go. :D
I agree, Quake and UT are more of a twitch shooters, but CoD's mp is still a twitch shooter. There is nothing else you do there. There are no real tactics or sensible military strategies there. So it's a twitch shooter. And btw I played Quake when most people here weren't even born. So don't worry about that part. :)
I'm impressed by the technical demo! Walking and taking off the main ship, exploring, flying combat, leaving the ship in 0g, landing on a planet, sneaking and silent takedown, fps combat and finally saving the pilot. It just felt so satisfying and all this without a single loading screen in between. Of course there were some slight issues, which need to be polished like the fps drop I saw on some occasions and some texture/shadow bugs. But those are all minor things compared to what was just presented. Can't wait for the release. :-)
The Motion Capture in this game is really impressive. The script, from these clips, seems excellent. The graphics are clearly pre-alpha, which makes everything forgivable regarding graphical pop-in, lighting glitches, bad lip sync, and other general hiccups. Even still, the cinematic storytelling is something I greatly appreciate. The influences on this game are apparent, from Wing Commander to Mass Effect, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Metro 2033, and even Fallout 3/4 with the amazing wrist-based HUD. As I mentioned, I am very impressed.
stu27777 Yes She is beautiful, it not wrong to admire beauty , I believe that actor's name is Eleanor Tomlinson...her Voice sounds familiar from the Poldark drama Series...too bad they didnt used her natural ginger hair here. I Hope I am right that this is Eleanor Tomlinson, can anyone of the DEVs confrim this?
Have to say I was glad to see the Avenger update work. I've always had a soft spot in my heart (and a steady place in my hangar) for the space penguin.
If you don't have a Pioneer, you don't have the right papers. My Hammerhead will challenge anyone who comes closes to my land claim without proper papers.
Everybody that want's to know where all the money goes. Well, there it is!! These studios, equipment, software, hardware, insurance, payroll all cost alot of money! CIG is building the best game probably ever made(Sci-Fi at least). So all the naysayers living at home not paying "Bills" like we do IRL, here's a glimpse as to where all that money goes. It goes to making STAR CITIZEN!!!!
The crowd control, and walking through crowd animation in Assassin's Creed is one thing they've done really well. Your character adjusts itself to move through and past another person. Unless you're running, you'll bump into the person and they will be pushed aside.
Am I the only one who wants MORE struts? I get no comfort out of a giant glass bubble being the only thing standing between me and the cold vacuum of space.
This game is so gorgeous! as an old wing commander fan since wing commander 1 this is everythings i'm wanted since many years. Now if bladur's gate 3, kotor 3 and warcraft 3 would see the light of the day I would be in heaven!!
There will be future Singleplayer story DLC's, and they won't be for free. They claim they will be the length of a full game. Developing games isn't free either.
No doubt that there might be an Easter egg inspired by that movie in the game, where monsters that didn't make the cut in terms of creatures that we will find on planets will appear on your ship for a split second to add a bit of a jump scare while you're walking around your ship in an area of space that makes you hallucinate. I like your thinking SpirallingOut
The problem with EA is that they charge a ridiculous amount for a bad game then they charge you £8-35 for something that should have been in the game to begin with. DLC is fine as long as you get what you what you pay for, as Peter Zimmerman said game development isn't free and we want to be able to fund future single player storylines set in the star citizen universe.
THIS IS THE GAME I've wanted to play since Wing Commander. C Roberts pushed the envelope in that game too. He was using extended memory for additional effects. WC is what hooked me on PC gaming..
This looks soooooooo good! At some point it would be cool to see your character actually put on each article of clothing and gear but I'm sure having the cloth simulation and physics work with your character will be tough to accomplish. I believe you guys can do it though. 👍
Studio tour was very cool and amazing to see all those people. Must be burning through a ton of cash every month. Game will be awesome and hopefully very successful.
As much as im looking forward to the PU, SQ42 is really why i backed the game in the first place. Ive been waiting for a Chris Roberts Wing Commander kind of game since 1996. Can't wait.
when I first preordered (I guess is the term) for 15 bucks I just shrugged it off and never actually had intentions to play it... now... Now I cant freakin wait
Dan Crum It will be more interesting in game as you won't start as a Lieutenant and won't end as one. Kinda like the rpg games where you start from grunt.
Despite the dramatic music, cut scenes and - admittedly excellent - acting, I'm not fooled: what we have here is Star Citizen Alpha 3.0 gameplay. We're still in for a looooong wait...
Vagabond (from WC4) for my money, He always radiated confident assurance and followed orders! He didn't have a lot of dialog in the cutscenes, but his acting was spot on, just right for the WW2 vibe of the series.
Nice Terminator nod. "Phase Plasma Rifle in the 40 watt range." LOL.
More than that, the other guy's response was also straight out of the movie.
William Santiago brilliant homage. Spot on.
yeah, I had a giggle at that part..
Well it's been almost 5 years in the wait, please continue working on this project it's honestly amazing
I still can't believe that in 2017 they had a such nice game already with all these things, and we are so many years later and we still can't play SQ42...
I liked the gameplay demo, but I really liked the studio walk through with the directors
When he sees the enemies: *TURN OFF YOUR F*CKING LIGHT!*
But it looks really good. Want to see more!
I was in Awe for 1 hour and 6 mins. I have seen it 20 times with the whole family. I have watched the commentary 4 times.

Wow I can't believe I only paid a extra $15 for SQ42. I feel like I should be paying this company more money!
-checks my elaborate hangar
...yea nevermind.
What happened ? It's appearently still included in my 2014 Andromeda game package.
demo starts at 27:14 I'm really impressed with the video. Cant wait to play.
seriously. Think i had to scrape my jaw off the floor a few times. The coil section was epic. the lightning effects gives a lot of atmosphere to the game. And a bit of stealth gameplay more in line with some of the old metal gear games.
Still waiting fella ?
*looks at the wrist watch* yep…
wow they must have taken extra care not to have npc's standing on chairs for 7 years straight on this one. biggest soft scam in the decade.
The part where he EVA'd out blew my mind. I mean, I knew you could do that but seeing it actually as a seamless part of story content was amazing.
Thumbs Up FOR SQ42 Hype!
Good to be a Citizen!
naaah i dont care at all about single player coop is always better if any effort going towards squadron 42 doesnt also help star citizen I get pretty pissed as I have to wait long enough as it is, they should just make the whole squadron 42 campaign at least 4 player coop
As cool as a full co-op campaign would be, you risk muddling or even losing some of the personal relationships and suddle details that Chris has envisioned for his story.
This is the first time I'm actually on a hype train. And I feel its 100% Justified!
I failed to catch the hype train. I think it left station well before I got near the station.
It looks great, but lets be honest, it's a long way off.
TONKS!
What's the Tonk joke about? I am from Germany and i first thought it would be a joke from World of Tanks. Like those eastern Europeans with their "stronk tank pleyerer" but it means something different or?
1:58:23 The guy there has a very heavy French accent, so it sounds as if he is saying TONK, and it sounds so awesome that it might as well be the official name of the vehicle. :D
Thx mate i missed that one. Too funny :)
Quecki's Let's PlaY it's basically something from the Livestreams chat. Everybody lost their mind with how the French guy was saying it.
Well understandable. My German accent might somehow be funny too, but he is really awesome. Tonks! :)
TONK HYPE
Jesus! lol!
What's the Tonk joke about? I am from Germany and i first thought it would be a joke from World of Tanks. Like those eastern Europeans with their "stronk tank pleyerer" but it means something different or?
1:57:10 The tonk joke is a reference to this guys pronunciation of tank
The JESUS TONK! I need me a JESUS TONK!
Le' Tonk if you please....
Omg 4 years ago????
About time we had some gameplay
S42 Slice is great. Needs some work is a given. While most might not think of the fact that S42 and SC are using the same tech which is currently SC 3.0 Alpha, it's the same Universe, and the same game, engine, and assets. It should come as no surprise.

CoD is not a twitch shooter, play quake and get back to me
I agree, Quake and UT are more of a twitch shooters, but CoD's mp is still a twitch shooter. There is nothing else you do there. There are no real tactics or sensible military strategies there. So it's a twitch shooter.
And btw I played Quake when most people here weren't even born. So don't worry about that part. :)

Squadron 42 is looking great i can't wait until we get are hands on it.
Let me tell you how cool the sound team is. They deserve some super praise for their efforts! Such an atmosphere they create!
I have a huge respect for people with visions.
ze'tonk is literally killing me...i can' t unhear it anymore *lol*
nah, i love his accent.
And the TONK never left. :D

Is it wrong for me to say Trejo is hot?
stu27777 Extreme objectification young man, restrain yourself!
I’d hit that!
... too soon??
stu27777 Yes She is beautiful, it not wrong to admire beauty , I believe that actor's name is Eleanor Tomlinson...her Voice sounds familiar from the Poldark drama Series...too bad they didnt used her natural ginger hair here. I Hope I am right that this is Eleanor Tomlinson, can anyone of the DEVs confrim this?
In the face...!? >8P
IMDB confirmed www.imdb.com/title/tt5194726/fullcredits?ref_=tt_cl_sm#cast
I just want to buy that mining spider already
Which one ?
The genius of the games development industry. Pinnacle of the career!
You are the best, CIG. This is a milestone in gaming history. Amazing work - ALL OF IT!! Thanks for dropping a jaw to the Stanton floor :D
On behalf of 600i owners everywhere...thank you. Thank you for addressing our concerns from the forums!
Have to say I was glad to see the Avenger update work. I've always had a soft spot in my heart (and a steady place in my hangar) for the space penguin.
LETS GOOO SQ42!
now you know how to use the starmap on your ship without using mobiglass
If you don't have a Pioneer, you don't have the right papers. My Hammerhead will challenge anyone who comes closes to my land claim without proper papers.
Am I the only one more excited for SQ42 more than the online component. I just want a 2018 version of freelancer!
Dude this looks fcking amazing, the engine is savage, i can imagine how much work and enforce they put in this game, the SC team is amazing
CIG is doing the Lord's work!
yes! praise odin for blessing them with their work!
Christ Roberts! Most holy! Second only to Zeus himself!
They might do the Lord's work in 7 years. Might.
After all these years, they are still in the "early days" of NPC AI??????
Baby Jesus approves and claps with his little baby hands!
they were sort of busy building an engine that can actually run a map as massive as the one they're going for.
Amazing how much better the game looks when 80% of the screen isn't completely black like it was during the original stream.
What sealed the deal?
SPACE MOP!
Everybody that want's to know where all the money goes. Well, there it is!! These studios, equipment, software, hardware, insurance, payroll all cost alot of money!

And hiring the cast... I bet Mark Hamil and Gillian Anderson don't come cheap.
...Lieutenant
Lieutenant
Lieutenant
Pronounced Lef-ten-ant
Lieutenant
lootenant
Almost 4 yrs later, still no SQ42 :(
going on 6 years now ....
I don't know how many times i played wing commander - this one brings back some good old memories
Oh hai Mark!
Squadron 42 will be pure kino.
The crowd control, and walking through crowd animation in Assassin's Creed is one thing they've done really well. Your character adjusts itself to move through and past another person. Unless you're running, you'll bump into the person and they will be pushed aside.
42:09 the character there is voiced by the same guy who did Carth Onasi in The KOTOR games and Scorch in Star Wars Republic Commando.
SQ42 is the main reason for my support. I'm so glad for new information and it's looking good. This is the game I have been waiting for for decades.
Nathan Dearsley...Props on the Weyland Yutani hat.
"We've decided to remove the struts from the 600i cockpit entirely." *weeps tears of joy*
I love how the guy has the other pilot's comm ID set as "Old Man"
Watching this awesome video while in the meantime getting stuck on a 10 cm piece of dried mud on a Dragonfly in the PTU. xP
No more struts on the 600i's bridge... thank goodness! Thank you, CIG!
love the terminator reference 43:43
In which Terminator was that?...i dont remember it.
YES!!! I noticed that too. Immediately brought a huge smile to my face!!!:)
T1
Thank you for removing the struts and improving the 600i front visibility.
Am I the only one who wants MORE struts? I get no comfort out of a giant glass bubble being the only thing standing between me and the cold vacuum of space.
This game is so gorgeous! as an old wing commander fan since wing commander 1 this is everythings i'm wanted since many years. Now if bladur's gate 3, kotor 3 and warcraft 3 would see the light of the day I would be in heaven!!
What I know, Warcraft 3 was launched 3. juli 2002... Apart from that I agree!
Warcraft 4 sorry
:)
Baldur's Gate this year!
The new duke nukem forever. Coming 2016.
That was a Amazing mission, is more cooler than some full AAA games :D
Xavier Matews dare to say S-game
This game is a AAA game tho...
Star Citizen, in its entirety, would basically be a AAAA, SSS, or something along those line -game
agree, deffinitly SSS :D!
1 Squadron 42 mission >>>>>> All Mass Effect Andromeda ;)
Man, everything looks incredible.
Can't wait for Sq42
Everyone on reddit was talking about the TONK... I get it now...
Wish more game came out at the same quality as this pre alpha state.
Phased plasma rifle in the 40 watt range!!! Yesssss!. Nice terminator reference easter egg there! THimbs up for CIG!
I agree with Gerid the blues Brothers are awesome
Loved the Terminator referrence, very funny.
The face animations are soo good. This will be a fun game to talk to people.
just seen one of my favourite british actors in this . superb .
Just putting it out there. A great idea for a Halloween themed SQ42 story DLC...
A story expansion heavily inspired by the movie "Event Horizon".
DLC? I dont think so
no paid dlcs (if any) CIG dont be like EA and other companies (sorry for my english im not english speaking)
There will be future Singleplayer story DLC's, and they won't be for free. They claim they will be the length of a full game. Developing games isn't free either.

repping that Weyland-Yutani Corps hat. Top bloke.
27:01
The hero we needed
1:57:09
THIS IS THE GAME I've wanted to play since Wing Commander. C Roberts pushed the envelope in that game too. He was using extended memory for additional effects. WC is what hooked me on PC gaming..
This looks soooooooo good! At some point it would be cool to see your character actually put on each article of clothing and gear but I'm sure having the cloth simulation and physics work with your character will be tough to accomplish. I believe you guys can do it though. 👍
Did that dude put an empty plate in the microwave?
its the future my dude! th-cam.com/video/fnozDdpaFik/w-d-xo.html
Was it a microwave? I was thinking it was some kind of food station like you see in TOS Star Trek.
SJW INGSOC I knew what your link would be before even looking 😂
Reminds me of Peter pan.
was it even a microwave? maybe star trek was the inspiration there
Hello? 2022 here just wondering how Things are going?
Great demo! It shows the large amount of work that has gone in to this game.
I've been waiting for this since the last Wing Commander game, and it looks like I WILL NOT be disappointed. This looks fantastic!
Studio tour was very cool and amazing to see all those people. Must be burning through a ton of cash every month. Game will be awesome and hopefully very successful.
my god your LA office is amazing :O
What's that sir? couldn't hear you over the 'suspenseful music ' moment. 1:19:31
@4:57 Weyland Yutani hat, Peach Trees sweatshirt. I feel like I could get along pretty well with these guys
As much as im looking forward to the PU, SQ42 is really why i backed the game in the first place. Ive been waiting for a Chris Roberts Wing Commander kind of game since 1996. Can't wait.
did anyone else get that movie "the office" feel to this ?
I love the Terminator reference.
So excited that the Avenger is finally getting some love. The wheels still seem disproportionately small though.
Stay Tonky, Lieutenant.
And so it was, that, on December 22nd in the year 2017, the TONK was born.
Roberts....The Musk of gaming
Don't insult Roberts like that.
5 years later and post Twitter purchase, this content was prescient.
Musk probably owns a few javelins and is embarrassed to say anything
when I first preordered (I guess is the term) for 15 bucks I just shrugged it off and never actually had intentions to play it... now... Now I cant freakin wait
As soon as they heard the string french accent there was no question he had to be chief tonk designer.
Foundry 42 : the office where even the janitor gets his own dual monitor setup :D
I liked the part where they said, "Lieutenant"
Dan Crum It will be more interesting in game as you won't start as a Lieutenant and won't end as one. Kinda like the rpg games where you start from grunt.
Shoulda been Leftenant. Immersion broken, demanding refund. :D
Eh.. Grunt isn't a rank. Grunts don't pilot either.
yeah buddy yeah buddy
Jerald Lutney why would it be 'leftenant' when there's no 'rightenant'?
Despite the dramatic music, cut scenes and - admittedly excellent - acting, I'm not fooled: what we have here is Star Citizen Alpha 3.0 gameplay. We're still in for a looooong wait...
Amazing CIG!
Smiled about the snowman and that carrot. :)
oh how I hope they will have this level of immerson with NPCs for the PU As Well!
56:23 for the quantum travel past the space dust
that is so beautiful... it was amazing to watch that scene in the stream, the chat going crazy, no one expected that.
Id love to see a TONK vs Tank battle.
Tonk wins. Next.
He's very excited about working on the Tonk. Big Tonk.
"I best head down to the hangar and adjust my loadout" Am I the only one that shed a tear to my wing commander memories?
I mean come on... if Biff (Maniac) isn't a choice I can have as my wing-man, I will be disappointed.
Vagabond (from WC4) for my money, He always radiated confident assurance and followed orders! He didn't have a lot of dialog in the cutscenes, but his acting was spot on, just right for the WW2 vibe of the series.
Way to go CIG! Your hard work is highly appreciated! Happy Holidays to you!
The hype is real! This is the ultimate space pilot/soldier simulator ever!
Armoury office is Raphael Sbarge? awesome!
This is what I have been waiting for... can't fookin wait to play this.
1:57:09 Origins of Tonk
Love that Teminator 1 reference
