    Yep.  The game.  Not Arena Commander or Ship commander or whatever BS they're coming out with on the site.

    I think the problem he has is that he has a huge following that want him to keep improving the game and a minority of his backers that just want the game asap and to stop adding to it.


    I think he realises that if he releases it as originally stated it will be old news in a matter of months, if it makes it more akin to an MMO the game will be a money maker for 5-10 years.

    They show the inside of the Port Olisar space station.

    There you select your ships in the Atrium. They select a Constellation (CONNY FTW ! :-)

    Ship has now much more detail.

    Connie and Hornet launch.

    Ships fly to com array.

    Fighting pirates.

    "ITs a TRAP !" someone in the audience screams ;-)

    Turrets firing, missiles hit pirates ...next wave

    EVA from Hornet, repairs com array

    Connie crew watches Hornet pilot's EVA

    Hornet pilot comes back out

    Connie has some visible damage

    BTW thats not a video.... thats played live by a group of people on stage in the in game engine

    Connie lands on refuelling pad . repairs (with drones ), rearms, refuels

    Ships fly to Security Post Karesh (a FPS area)

    Connie lands (thats NOT the station we saw in previous FPS videos)

    Crew disembarks

    4 outlaws fight the 3 crewman for control of the station C3 (command control center)

    MAN DOWN MAN DOWN ! :-)

    Outlaws killed all marines, they steal Connie now ;-)

    All U base belongs to US ! jokes

    Outlaws launch... choose one of the many places

    End of demo




    Have fun

    Were you an original KS backer? If so why didn't you get your money back when they announced the expanded vision for SC that you apparently don't agree with? If you are not a KS backer then what is your damage?

    Yeah with the black dress on. You mean you missed her crying act?
    I guess I did. I saw Cris take some flowers away from her and then she walked off.

    Old man syndrome here but she looked very... unprofessional to me. The bar whore dress, the ridiculous grade school looking thing around her neck and the god awful (still hoping to be fake) tattoo just didn't look right to me.

    I am in that minority(?). I want them to quit with the concept ships (not the stretch goal ones) and just get something out. Their are enough ships now for S42 at least. Get that out THEN make more concept ships.

    I am an original backer.  Because the original dream was good.

    I don't think you people are getting this.

    For example, this is an OWPvP game right?  So pirates have disabled this comm satellite and you need to go fix it.  (lets just use the shown example)  So what a-holes are GOING to do (because they can't help themselves) is wait for you to go EVA.  You go into the hole, they shoot your butt, and then they steal your ship.

    Why?  Because they're a-holes.  We don't need EVA.  Give us some ships, give us some baddies, and let us fly around.  How well did Dust work for Eve?  Not well.   This is worse.

    And let's also be brutally honest, while the game looks pretty, who wants to take 5-10 minutes to run to a platform to find your ship (if you run to the right platform)?  No one.  That's not the meat-and-potatoes of the game.  You didn't need it in Privateer/Freelancer, you don't need it now.

    But yes, I just want them to release SOMETHING.  Alpha 2.0 seems like something and it's better than nothing.  But, again, on the original timescale stuff should have released....

    Instead we get another new ship.. if you pay 50.  And another new ship.... only 250 this time.  Oh, and now a custom skin, that's 45.  But no game release in sight.  

    I can't be the only person to look at this development, then look at the development of something like No Man's Sky and draw instant comparisons can I?

    I didn't expect the com array to be this huge and requiring you to enter it in EVA to repair it.  All other Space Sim show a button that says "Repair" that you click one you are close enough to it. 

    A P-52 Merlin can probably enter it, lol.

    I can see your point. TBH I'm excited more for S42 than the PU just because of what you described. I am not a MP PvP person at all. I will probably rarely play the PU. If shit like you brought up happens then I will not play it at all.

    It will largely depend on how actively it's admined and how ffa it is.  
    EDIT but untill they stop making videos and get it out to testers hands you won't get an answer.

    @ Erllion dude do you really need to keep self bumbing? kinda lame. if people are watching the don't need the play by play.  If they arn't there is likely a reason.

    So far the show is nice, and I am glad to see they rolled the FPS into the test PU instead of staggering the deployment, but I am not blown away at this point.

    Also it is a bit disappointing to see that we will still be waiting for 2.0. CiG really needs to get something into the hands of backers that shows the basic concept of the game working.

    I will admit though that the 2.0 release as they showed looks FAR more like an actual game than the Gamescom Demo.

    It's an interesting event.

    Not sure if the game is for me, but given the other threads to 'bring out the truth', I really don't see why the haters must visit every thread to regurgitate their disdain and scoff at anything out there.

    Let people make up their own damn mind whether they should support any game/idea or not.

    Thanks OP for this.

    Get a better speaker has anyone counted how many err's he has said, reminds me of a truck backing up.

    What do they mean they haven't done any advertising or marketing so we want you too refer your friends, people clapped at something what was obvious BS.

    I suppose people will clap at anything.

    Detailed explanations on facial animations (looks damn good).. example of a senate speech is shown. Gary Oldman in action ;-)

    Now talking about SQ42 features

    10+ hours of performance capture with actors  (compare:  WC3 ..3.5 h, WC4 was a bit more than 4 hours of actor screentime). Basically a 10 hour movie.

    Now they show a Behind the Scenes of Mocap shooting  video

    Gary Oldman compares Chris Roberts with George Lucas.

    Gary Oldman in mocap look .. reminds me of "Cats" ;-)
