- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ก.ย. 2024
- Intrepid smuggler Alex Dougan is in the midst of a messy job that sees her reunited with unpredictable former cohort Madi Zhen, pursued by bounty hunters and gangsters, and haunted by specters from her past. Can Dougan pilot her trusty Crusader Mercury, the 'Belligerent Duck', out of trouble yet again? Or will her luck - and her quantum fuel - finally run out?

This movie is so high budget they even got the real stormtrooper actors!
The msr would've run out of fuel pulling all those moves
The guy at the end sounded like Dex from Star Wars.
@@melxb they look like it because they still didn't (or couldn't?) implement regular female long hair. Its more computation resource taxing because of the physics that goes with it....or just more complicated to work with right now that it doesn't warrant a high priority in their to-do list.
Guess you know why the game is taking so long to develop lmfao.
So high budget, imagine who is paying for all this.
The soldiers at the base forgot that weapon zeroing has been implemented
dude, that only drops in 3.12 we are still in 3.11, so ofc they did not have weapon zeroing, duh!
@@Odeezee if these guys are all on ptu then my joke still stands
@@killerkram1337 well obviously not as this was made b4 the PTU 🤣
this made me laugh hard
OMG LMAO!
Obviously the guards had their weapons set to miss.
Stormtrooper 2.0
We already know that the AI is still broken...and it shows even here lol
Give them a break at least they weren't standing on chairs!
Occupational Health and Safety require all guard weapons must be factory set to "miss". They could be dangerous otherwise!
trained by storm troopers
Plot armor so strong with these two.
Is this the first time you have ever seen a story?
These guards make stormtroopers look like snipers
TRUE !! 🤣🤣🤣
"I can assure you, this will be long and painful. Well not too long, this server has already been up for 2 hours and we could 30k any minute up in here".
Yeah you can tell there's one coming, all of the soldiers had really bad desync on their shots.
Well Roberts foundet enough money, to higher real Stormtroopers^^
Main character: fires blindly behind herself whilst running away and hits target.
Stormtrooper npcs: ...
Its the servers fault. Still a lot of desync issues going on with the alpha
its the best CIG can do for AI, cut them a break, at least the guy beside him reacted when his buddy died, that means in about 12 years or so when the game goes to beta we might, maybe, have better AI!
@@FieldHoodGaming oh that is hilarious! it was rubber banding... yup that was it :p
If you can aim, living among stormtroopers makes you a Mary Sue whether you want it or not.
Arguably this is why many people don't like me. My mind's eye can aim so well, many think I got an aimbot running.
MSR computer: Hydrogen fuel at 7%
That much? I'm shocked!
hey its you !
lol
ha ha
Future generations of citizens will never know the true meaning of your comment ;)
O7
*SWEET JESUS! EVERYONE in that outlaw dump has a grave case of stormtrooper syndrome!*
Nah, they just asked SC players to give it their best shot. Most of them lagged out or 30k'd while firing.
@@silver_tongue_studio Yeah. Devs should have put in a disclaimer: _"Nobody died in making of this video - just 30k'd."_
They shoot using gamepads actually.)
It was a desync issue... some guys even 30k'ed...
Imagine if the same wildness will be in the plot squadron 42)
Shoutout to Pedro Camacho for yet another superb music score! We love you, Pedro
That is very kind of you!! All thanks to the amazing team... alone no one can do anything!
Pedro never disappoints! I still remember your appearances from the old Wingmans hangar days , good times :)
I see Everyone except our 2 protagonists attended the Imperial stormtrooper school of marksmanship
No, those two just flunked out due to bad aim.
To kill one guy in modernwars you need 100 rounds stormtroopers need only 27 i think stormtroopers are very good
Everything about this move smells like Mary Sue 😂
@@fgrdvsnellac7602 That's not the whole picture though, modern conflict uses a lot of ammo because modern tactics revolve around suppressing enemies until you get a unit in position to take them out neatly.
Stormtroopers miss while their targets are out in the open and they're actually aiming to kill not suppress.
CIG : We don't want players to be able to clean a bunker all by themselves.
Also CIG : "The Reunion".
let's run 100m in a straight line with everybody shooting at us
and they survive, well done
desync
@@tomsbasement4884 lol
"Come on, this way!" she says after a minute, then contimues to run in a straight line
Theres no armor like plot armor
The running animation even looked like a morning jog, rather than sprinting while under fire.
A shame not to see the Banu talking or interacting, however the show has been great!
*PS:* _There is a need for a shooting academy in the Star Citizen universe_
If only the gun shops had shooting ranges.
It's like watching Star Wars all over again...But that was the plan all along.
@@hellow5100 HAHAHAHAHAHA!
@@echo5827 You can't compare the adventures of the Belligerent Duck to the crud that is the Sequel Trilogy.
@@dagazrune6453 it seems pretty comparable to me
Just like Star Wars, none of the guys with two hands on a “”rifle””can hit anything but the girls on the run shooting backwards with one hand on a “”pistol”” can hit everything.
@@tropicthndr What's better than a Mary Sue? 2! xD
How many blind soldiers do you need for these running scene?
CIG: Yes!
The PU AI aim has made it into the video I see
This is the Way!
More like cheap hired ex-empire storm troopers that couldn't find a job
I definitely thought about stormtrooper aim but it was worse than that 😂
Yet, if the ai where more accurate, people would cry about that too.. just no pleasing some people.. 🤦🤷
A stormtrooper is actually coded the enemy AI! Didn't you know?
I'm surprised they're not standing on their chairs lol
They should have had one in the background standing on a chair, just for a laugh/easter egg. :)
I actually laughed out loud at this comment.
Would have loved to seen 5 guards standing in the same spot
😂😂
That aim of those guards may rival that of Stormtroopers :P
It's just desync ;P
Took the words right out of my mouth...
@@TimothySnowman 30k maybe? ;)
@@DofDPlays yeah, my mobi stopped working... I hope the Duck doesn't have any cargo.
@@TimothySnowman But it does, illicit cargo.
They didn't zig-zag, no sprint, no ducking, no attempt to obscure line of sight at all.
What are you talking about? The ducking was belligerant.
It was made by people who have never fired a weapon. What do you expect?
don't need that with plot armor. waste of effort.
@@jeremyfirth most people haven't lol. they can still see why its ridiculous
I love a stupid action sequence but lord, just plonk some waist high cover boxes in your run away from guns scene and my belief will be suspended.
Right? I mean, how much harder would it be to do that in a way that could make at least a little bit of sense.
One more video like this and I'm gonna order books on how to build suspension bridges.
@@Dowlphin I'm gonna get a book on the suspension of disbelief :)
Two people running in a straight line in the wide open. The aim of those guards is embarrassing even to Stormtroopers.
Okay CIG, NOW you have to create a third Part :P Plz wanna see the Banu alive! Who else?
100%
And I want him to have a British butler accent!
@@jinxatron LoooL That would be tremendous my dear :P
Uh no. This was dumb.
Would of been more accurate if they fell through their ship when they entering quantum at the end.
I think I would've died from laughter if that happened. :')
And then the video goes from 9 minutes to 30 minutes while we wait for their claim timer?
Maybe someone will do a machinima series.
@@AlphaCitizen 50 minutes for the MSR - especially if they've ran out of credits :D
Really nailed all the tropes in this one!
That's the new style. Tick all the mandatory checkboxes so that the audience can tick all of theirs. Entertainment bingo.
Yea pretty formulaic and not very creative... props to the artists tho..... the story just sucks
@@Dowlphin yea what a wonderful environment we live in
@@Cornpone that black guy looked pretty good, but the two main characters still look like a color smear
@@Dowlphin checked the boxes so hard they swapped out the main character to get a few more checked off lol
I love how we can actually fly in game right now most of the vehicles we see in the video, even the Mantis is used as it can be actually in game.
It’s so cool.
I love the references from both Star wars and Star trek in this
Because the Mercury Star Runner is the Millennium Falcon of Star Citizen
@@Maverick966 No it's the Ebon Hawk. It's top of the line in all specs.
@@Maverick966 Everyone says Millennium Falcon when it reminds me more of the Ebon Hawk
Reminds me more of the defiant from deep space 9
@@Dumb-Comment well of course, defiant is a warship, Star runner is a snuggler ship. I was speaking in terms of general shop design and layout
5:07 *Plot armor activated*
Did Dougan take the Elevator to get up to the Server Room? Because if so they would be frigging dead....
For gods sake press SPACE if you're balls aren't too heavy!!
I just jump up, unless i want to use the elivator as a mini time-stop against unwelcome guests.
Hahahaa
She knew the trick to vault up the ladder, hence why they are not dead of course. I'm sure she wants to put a panther repeater shot into the head of the crusader designer responsible EVERY time she ends up needing to press that elevator up button...
As an aside, it'd be hilarious to see a scene where she stops to look at the elevator button in disgust while vaulting up the ladder from the cargo deck on the way to the bridge. It'd be like cig going "we know, we know....."
Bill Burr in the background of that outlaw camp, reacting the comment section: I'M NOT A STORMTROOPAH WISEASS
Way too much "rule of cool." Did the story board just read: "Insert trope here."?
Young artists learning the tropes.
What tropes do you mean exactly?
You can tell about doors, you can tell about weak weapons, you can tell about the stupid elevator on the cargo area, you can even tell about the secret bay that is no secret. But one thing you can not avoid to tell. The Mercury Star Runner is a beautiful ship.
Facial animations straight from ME:Andromeda. Just waited for the line "My face is tired"
Bad writing, bad haircut. Amazing animaiton, strange run cycle for an "outlaw" (I'm talking about the chick with the tescos manager haircut) she has a real stacy run
Not going to lie i was convinced that thing was going to run out of gas in 9 minutes just like mine does.
It got the 3.12 upgrade
@@LunarLizard that just means they will have to rob a bank to pay for refuel :D
@@2727daqwid Probably not broke and trying to pay for it running box missions designed for starter ships lol
Some Hollywood cheese and clichés, but an enjoyable video nonetheless.
a hole bag in fact
Some??
This was pretty good, would totally like to see more. However, the dialogue could use some less cheese and the running scene was implausible - any kind of evasion (like smoke) would've made it at least marginally believable. The talent is there, though.
The animation stuff is great, everything else is garbage.
@@antred11 the lore behind the ship and the crew memebers is very interesting
@@antred11 Apart from the ship combat and car chase, the animation is a bit janky. By no means awful though.
Everybody loves that Marvel humor.
All was ok until the running scene. That scene was really really bad....
No, there is really really bad. And then there was that scene....
@@Battallavate The combat between ships was really cool Imho.
They can count themselves lucky their ship didn't despawn during the quantum hiccup.
This gives me Star Wars vibes! Even included the Stormtroopers missing! =D
But seriously, great work CIG!
I hear, the shorter their hair is the thicker their plot armour is.
No Hair physics yet, don't tell anyone :)
@@Sleek110 Because you need hair physics for ponytails/buns and other clean looking feminine hair styles right?
@@ARC_VR Oh, well I was just making a joke about the proper hair being delayed due to some silly new tech requirement by CIG, maybe some AI simulated hair physics that works in ZERO G, Can't have hair without that! Uhhhgg... sorry was way to obscure of a feature creep joke to translate over text i think.
@@ARC_VR To be fair, long hair in space is not something you want. Even with artificial gravity. The Starship Troopers novel went over this. Female crew on ships often shaved their heads.
@@wun1gee Can you elaborate why?
The suspension of disbelief starts at 4:55
Real SC: They're outnumbered and outgunned. They both get wasted. He then pries the codes from her corpse. Roll credits.
Yup, in the current game they would've been gunned down easily if those guards were players.
Great work. Looking forward to Squadron 42 even more now if this is the sort of cutscene quality we can expect.
This is waaaay better that all the news type of videos they have producing for almost 7 years lol
Would love to see more of it too.
This video is fantastic. Wonderfully done scifi and sells wonder. Love it keep them coming.
I know that falling with the ship off, turning it on last second, and swooping up is a sci-fi trope at this point.... but it never gets old! I love these kind of videos and hope CIG keeps making more! THANK YOU!!!
it gets even less old when you try it yourself in the PU
Ah yes, the infamous" run in a straight line to avoid bullets cause plot armour" move. Always ruins everything...
... ^^
Hey, with Star Citizen's netcode, it's doable! Lol.
I love that we’re getting little shows from CIG it’s really fun! Adds life to the verse!
ah good, they fixed her weird bendy head in the "do I still got it" scene.
Legend says Mas is still waiting to this day
I didn't realize we were backing short stories now.
The music is just on an entire other level. Spotify link please
Thank you, sir!! :)
Agreed, I've had trouble creating a Pandora station based on the music to listen while working.
right?! I am just perplexed how no one is mentioning the superb music score! I guess the stormtrooper trope took away all the attention :/
@@pedro.camacho Nice Job
@@ben_sch the music is 1:1 to SW
Mas be like wake me up when this game releases.
Despite the heavy plot armor (running with no armor straight down an empty area while being shot at by ~50 people), it was a nice short film. Liked the SW reference, it was a nice touch.
That's the stuff. That Belligerent Duck skin looks tasty...
"To avoid criticism say nothing, do nothing, be nothing"
Aristotle
When do we get to watch your video?
Dunno if this was intentional but the Banu phrase “tæ yayæ” translates to “no worries” not “Backstabber”
Also the Banu phrase “Tsuslo pindo” translates to “this is a problem for both of us”
Translation credit goes to Galactic Historian
No one told the guards that they have to zero their weapons in the new patch
Do you need zeroing for laser weapons?
Funniest thing are the explosions around the place as they run away... far funnier than the aim of the people shooting at them. Also the fact that the fleet at the end has a mantis and they still just qt away...
I'm confused..
Are they written to dodge bullets, or are the guards written to miss?
Outsanding Trailer CIG! Now back to work and get the Massive old Bugs fixed that we finally can enjoy the Game! We looooooove you CIG Happy Holidays :)
I for one, like the Star Wars type of action scenes. Yes I know the "storm troopers" have terrible aim, but it's so much fun with guns blazing all over while the antagonists are running. Sure I think the same thoughts, yes they can't shoot, but like that stuff and I absolutely loved this!
Lucky for them the Deacons seem to have gone to the Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy...
look at mary sue go...she flies better than even a jedi could...
When it's a good female pilot it's a Mary Sue. When it's Anakin Skywalker, Poe Dameron, etc. etc. it's just cool guys. Make up your minds 🤦♀️
People are making Star Wars comparisons because of the bad accuracy of the guards, but they also recreated that power-off free fall flip sequence at 6:52 from that chase scene in The Force Awakens. They really want you to see this as the Millenium Falcon.
Felt like watching old good star-wars, well done
What a great shortfilm. If Squadron42 is anywhere near as good as this movie, I'll be really happy.
The time it takes to get to the cockpit in a MSR from the ramp... they would've been shot down already....
I have actually nose-dived straight toward the ground with the MSR powered off, then turned it on last second. It really does handle like this.
So I can say is.. wow! I was literally on the edge of my seat through the entire show. Very very well done CIG!! So so so good!
I smell like beef 🥩
@@JadeMonkey 🤣
This was fun to watch.
The teeth are bright to the point of being unsettling.
The exchange and escape were so over the top that it wasn't believable.
The final betrayal and reconciliation were so fast that they weren't believable.
The utilization of so many vehicle assets made it feel like an extended commercial.
The fact that we can actually do this in game, right now, makes me all giddy.
Emergent gameplay boys.
Cyberpunk eat your heart out.
This is how the last 3 Star Wars films should have been.
Please more from this!
Nice! Our first glimpse of an alien that is not a picture!
Sounds a bit sarcastic my bad :p
I really love what you guys are doing and I am eagerly waiting for more!
Well goddamn! This needs to be a weekly series. Love it!!
I would love it as a star citizen show, imagine the content they could make on the already existent verse. Makes me want to play the game even more now!
@@Dillweed_productions I wish I could play it but I don’t on a PC. I’m a Mac guy. But it’s all good. I’m OK with watching others play it.
5:00 did they hire stormtrooper rejects?
Would be nice if this could be recreated in a finished game rn... But hope this is a sign of all the greatness to come.
Good luck finding people who are that bad at shooting XD
She actually retrieved the access codes of the new roadmap ... SoonTM Um?
awesome vid! only problem I had was the extreme plot armor/stormtroopers scene XD you would think that they would at least catch one of those bullets.
They NEED to make that a series!
Just please with real characters this time, these guys have been written by teenagers that just discovered the new star wars trilogy.
I can see all the guards went to the stormtrooper school of aiming.
Keep doing stuff like this tho this is awesome
Congratulations CIG and everyone else involved in this. It's a masterpiece, love the details and attention to clothing, the glitters in the eyes, the smiles and other facial expressions are authentic, the materials, and the outstanding acting! You guys are truly inspiring!
Outlaw 1: You've shot people?
Outlaw 2: Well... I've shot *at* people...
Man if that was a film, I would defenety go see it
I wouldn't because in reality those two females would never have left that place alive. I've had my fill of women pretending to be men.
@@alflud Who cares? 90% of actions movies have situations that no one would get out alive... Dream a bit
Thank you CIG. The video is almost perfect. Only the scene in which both without space suit on the ground were shot so hard and were not hit has disturbed me.
Absolutely awesome, I dont even mind plot armor thats to be expected mostly. I liked the acting and loved to see the banu although he was in cryo and some use of Banu language is awesome too.
Is this the quality of story telling we can expect of squadron 42?
i hope not, this story telling is embrassing
Good eye candy - shallow characters and interactions.
Really hope SQ42 doesn't take a single sniff from this.
We have already seen the story telling quality of SQ42 tho, this was a ship commercial, so....🤔

@@OD-Zee Cringed.
My heart sank when she turned off the engines so close to planet.. every time I've done that it ends badly.. I expected a fireball.. and yet the Mercury star rose up higher. Very great production from the team. I do also agree with stormtrooper comments. It's very fun to watch these videos as it is to play the game abd have it be relatable.
Hey good thing CIG increased the fuell tank size by x3 otherwise they never would have had enough fuel to leave again ... right? Still wander where they store that amount of fuel though.
I *wish* my Mercury had lights that shone even half as far as the Belligerent Duck's do. I'm lucky to get visibility *one* ship-length in front of me on a clear night.
The good:
Nice ground mega structures )need more of those.
Nice clouds in the sky.
Nice ground details (that Ballista shot on the top of the ridge was delicious).
Nice flight in athmosphere without magical hovering.
The bad:
Cringy stromtrooper NPCs that can't shoot
Main caracters feels a bit generic
The tripple backstab senario was too predictable
Need to get a full blown tv show or something, new episode every week.
Please no more Comments about fuel or stormtroopers. Seems like a part of the community is unable to enjoy Content like that.
You do understand that constructive criticism is important to improve right?
@@foujiz ps There where a few funny comments about i realy liked, which had aswell adressed the both problems. But after reading the 10 comment about the same issue.....
Good lord almighty. This was a surpise! Something dearly needed. Captured exactly what I want.

hero: one shot kill

Yep, Star wars
She's an aimbotting cheater.
Pedro Camacho: this is absolutely amazing. This is a s close to a Star Wars Soundtrack one can possibly get. I just loved the music and how well it fit the action on the screen. This score elevated a mediocre script to something better. Thank you for that.I just loved the theme you put in here. Hope to hear more of it in the future.
Thank you so much !!! I still have in my heart the video you made so many years about Star Citizen, I feel 2021 will be a great year for this amazing project!
I'm really hoping to see many more of these types of rendered vids from CIG! I liked it. It was everything everyone is complaining about, but it was still fun and I'm hoping as they do more, that they read these comments and get better. It was pretty cool seeing the concepts for these ships come alive in how they were intended. I have to wonder if every Crusader Mercury has those "hidden" compartments, how are they a secret? That's like cars having a "hidden trunk." I think they should make a separate channel or list just for these types of vids. They get completely lost in the ocean of videos they put out. Too hard to find and too hard to keep up with. I don't watch the other vids that much, but I would watch these as a series... ...and CIG. PLEASE either shoot less or hit more. That was pretty bad.
I know with the release of the Mercury Star Runner, they joyfully leaned into the Millenium Falcon/Star Wars vibes for this short, but man, does this formula work. I hope they put out more short films, television, and in-game story with this kind of tone and chemistry between characters. It's part of what makes the Star Wars films and even the Marvel films feel like such an exciting ride. Well done, CIG. 👏
This had more character development than all three of the Star Wars sequels combined
Better than the last Star Wars movie.
