Transcript — every row opens the video at that moment

1. 00:00:06

   [Music] let's go over to the uh the demo so we're going to start um so we can bring the lights down guys all right I'm going to go back here with the boys so I won't block the uh screen for you guys here we go there we go all right so we're going to start here on our po Alla so a lot of you guys are quite familiar with this we playing uh 2.0 onwards so uh this is uh Glenn he's going to play our surrogate player P [Applause] Glenn uh all right so let's uh let's get out of bed Glen hey you already saw this

2. 00:01:01

   although he's been eating Benny's noodles it looks like down there yeah oh it looks like we've got a a little video someone sent us a video message so let's go see what that is hey how are you miles zart friend over Crusader said you've been building quite a rep I run a out of security outfit I'm always on the lookout for capable people who don't rattle if you're interested in picking up some extra work we should talk I'll send my details okay uh so looks like we got a new Mission possible security job uh so we'd have to go to lski to find out about it so let's go over to

3. 00:01:48

   our mission manager all right possible security job there you go so to meet with milar all right so let's accept that and uh let's uh head out to the the pad for this Mission we're going to do sort of a Mini multi-row Mission so we have Chris over here who is uh going to partner Glenn and uh be the pilot to uh Glenn's all performing Action Hero and you guys obviously you guys Al alisar fairly well uh with its various shops and locations alar ship deck please press the

4. 00:02:44

   screen Comfort saf why fly when you can Cru star AB Crusader industry Genesis star and luckily Glenn slept in his space suit so he doesn't need to get chained all right here we go little Chris there waiting for us on the landing pad hello hey let wave to him there you go hey so there you are we switch between Chris and all right okay guys uh back to uh there we go let's let's get in our freelancer so we thought it's about time

5. 00:03:33

   to do a demo using a freelancer w that door didn't work before or something y wow all right come on there you go all right okay let's get in our co-pilot seat and over there you go okay let's uh okay let's uh let's just head out

6. 00:04:32

   landing gear up Chris look at uh look over Chris all right I'm back sweet okay all right let's go back and let's uh switch from our radar to uh star M so this is a this is an early working this is an early work in uh progress and it'll be obviously much further along by

7. 00:05:19

   the end of the year uh but you know you know the star map on on the uh the web and the capabilities and uh visual qualities will be the same here but this is obviously the standard system and when we're navigating around in such a large area you know you can't really have a, nav markers and so you're going to use your map for that um you know obviously we're by Crusader and if we zoom into Crusader and then zoom in further we can sort of see the moons and the different stations so you'll be able to do all that so let's uh let's pull out a little bit and it's going to be much snazzier and better than this is sort of our work program we'll we'll uh and if we pull out a little sorry pull out a little bit uh Chris so and then microt Tech is where you'll see Hurst AR cor and if you know the the web map you'll sort of no

8. 00:06:08

   ston but let's go to Del Delmar which is where leski is uh set and base so uh let's activate Quantum travel double click on that so here we are just uh this is the upper orbit station uh outside uh delar which which is a uh sort of Rocky small planetoid uh and

9. 00:06:57

   leki aborted is a well originally it was an AB abandoned mining uh town uh facility and it was sort of taken over by uh The People's Alliance which were a group of sort of uh anti- uee uh kind of uh po political activists during The Messer area um and so since then it sort of evolved into a a place free from sort of the the boot of the uee so to speak and if you kind of you know as long as you don't hurt someone else you can do whatever you want so it's um you know think of it a bit like Maz eely perhaps in terms of being a bit of a den of U villainy and scum so we'll just get a bit closer to Rob stuff and uh so in 3.0 and we're demonstrating every planet

10. 00:07:50

    every Moon uh will be fully done rendered physicalized you can land on any part of them walk all the way around it if you want if you've got um to do that cuz they're quite large uh Delmar here is about 2,000 uh kilm in diameter and you can actually see if you look at the curvature so we don't have any uh clip range or drawer range so when you see something in the distance on the planet uh the horizon line is the actual real horizon line uh so the guys in Frankfurt that are doing this the engine team uh so there there's uh they're they're they're pretty genius uh so you know Marco Keta and caraston ventel are sort of the leads of that and a lot of this is all their baby

11. 00:08:39

    so as we you know as we slowly pull down we'll start to uh enter the atmosphere um and as we sort of start to enter the atmosphere you sort of see the atmospheric head come in and SC and awesome uh and then and as we get down into the atmosphere it switches to a more atmospheric flight model so there is drag there is some uh small amount of sort of lift uh sort of aerodynamic modeling so if you have a ship like the

12. 00:09:28

    gladia will fly better than something like the Aurora um so here we are anywhere on uh delmare we could land get out and walk uh so as we fly down here perhaps uh Chris we could demonstrate and just land and get out somewhere wherever you want um hey ched you want to go back to the front view for a bit yeah perfect and then maybe do picture and

13. 00:10:18

    picture yep there we go so there you are Glenn opening up the back Chris spring is down and then let's go to uh uh Glenn's view Jared that's perfect there we go there we go Beauty and like put out all right this is going to be a

14. 00:11:19

    challenge see we did land everywhere let's see if we get can you jump up I don't know if it'll be able to do it let's see jump jump all right okay Chris is have to uh land somewhere we can he'll move a little bit so he game all right oh h no no I'm not sure we to make that let's see

15. 00:12:11

    if you can hey okay all right okay well that was unscripted adventure for you uh let's get back uh and like head let's take off and head into land lki so Le leki is a like I said it's a sort of free town uh and as long as you sort of respect their loose laws there everything's okay but they're not fond of uh uee folks that you want to go exterior there Swit

16. 00:13:08

    it switch it Jared no point of view point of uh pilot Jared the land okay all right so now we can either request or cancel a landing we wanted to but we're going to request the landing um from uh the lki control tower the is the character here Landing assigned okay so he's assigned the landing pad for us and that's kind of how in uh 3.0 we're going to have landing and the various different things cuz we're going to have to control traffic in and out and so you'll get a landing pad you'll land and then you'll have a certain amount of time to get out of your ship and then the ship gets taken away to a hanger and then the landing pad's available for someone else a land and the same happens for exiting

17. 00:13:55

    uh and uh if you take tooo long then the screen will fade to black and you'll be there in the airlock just so no one can sort of sit on the landing pad forever and prevent other ANS from Landing um all right so let's uh head down you want to flip these J there you go perfect awesome so like one of the big things is we went from mosar I think we traveled about a million kilometers to delmare now we've flown over the surface coming here to Lei uh and you know the goal with star siters in is to have a very Str at a beautiful and tactile world and universe so here we are we've just trapped down and we've arrived we've arrived at Lei um so let's uh let's go head in to

18. 00:14:48

    lki to look for miles eart all right now we're going to have Chris fly out and we're going to show you something here in a bit which is uh kind of fun but also shows the other big thing that I think is really important with Star Citizen is we are absolutely a multiplayer game so you and your friends can adventure around in a huge universe and I and for me I think that's really important um especially when you you know try to have a a a big detailed World otherwise it gets a bit lonely so here you are uh you know people's last

19. 00:15:36

    respect local authorities peace wins every time so definitely aging space if he's here so let's head through the airlock uh into well you got to get a lift now we're going to go down so here's an example of

20. 00:16:25

    the item 2.0 so everything has it in a thought when you interact us we just call the elevator and something to note in the elevators that we have um in actually they in grandex 2 is they're real elevators so there's a whole elevator system that calls them they move around in the um physical space uh okay let's go to the lobby and uh so let's walk out so here's the area the is basically these are lists from the four Landing areas you can come to welcome to leki uh so you can sort of see the the feel the character the you know the grounding that we want in the world in the universe um you know here's a statue uh remember Anthony T Tanaka who was this

21. 00:17:16

    kid that was uh killed by messan forces back in the mess area and he's a sort of symbol of defiance against the UE and therefore it's quite you know it's a it's a statue they've had here to sort of symbolize their defi against the uee um and if we look out the window here so we can see there you are that's the leki that we came in throughout and in fact look who's looking in at us it's it's Chris oh and look we can zoom in and look there's who's there Glenn you want to wave there you go so uh so there's a lot of work that's got into the tech to allow us to do this kind of detail at the same time multiplayer at this resolution in and out anyway it's it's it's difficult so

22. 00:18:07

    uh so here in all our sort of landing locations throughout um Stanton and the rest of the Pu so they will be somewhere like we would go there to get our ship repaired um the way that we're going to have determine which area you would sort of respawn on essentially uh would be whenever you land at a landing location you can go so here's a residential area and you can pay some money some credits to you know basically get your room like an easy Hab on P alisar and then when you sleep in the bed that sort of says okay that's your check point that you so then if I was flying out in space and I got killed I'd wake up in the hospital here in leki as opposed to waking up in p alisar and that's how you would sort of put your markers around as you go around so let's call the elevator here I think we did right GL yeah so this is example I know you guys probably said know Chris is just saying that the

23. 00:18:54

    elevators here are like move around promptly but no they really do and some of them are like real life elevators like this one uh but uh so we'll sit here and we'll do go down Chris is going to show off but we're also going to take a look if we look at Chris's view as he's looking around you can actually see the elevator moving right so there you are you see the elevator moving everything everything here in leki is it's it's it's the same as our ships we build it there's no cheating there's no teleporting to different areas it's all physically correct elevators physically move so we'll uh so we'll get out here um the Grand Bar and if we actually look at Chris's view we can sort of see through his so yeah here we are again

24. 00:19:43

    and Chris is uh somewhere here he's coming around there you go which is this is basically elevator we came down and there he is so and again you can sort of see all the way in you can see the grand B and you can sort of see us the player right there waving okay so Glenn let's turn around because we're going to go down to the Grand B Bazaar cuz that's uh where we're going to have to meet mes so head in let's go let's go down uh all right so here we go uh into the grand B Bazar so here here we are in the grand B

25. 00:20:42

    Bazaar and we look out so like all the landing locations that we're going to have in Star Citizen and this will be true with in 3.02 is that they'll be selling different things uh so you'll come to say lki to buy things you can't buy in other places and go to arore for this you know buy things you can get there that you can't get elsewhere uh so you know here would be probably more counterculture stuff uh kind of like slightly you know illegal modster weapons or stuff that you know you wouldn't normally get in sort of the authorized dealers uh and uh so this is the sort of bizarre Market Gordies in there would be where we would go and get armor and uh that kind of stuff and there are various different shops and stores around here and this whole area you are a person of good taste I

26. 00:21:34

    can tell so we'll keep going we don't so the the proper subsumption isn't in here yet but with that in we'll see people moving around doing things coming and going have a lot more life but the idea is to make all the locations that you go depending on what their sort of population uh would make sense are alive have people doing things friends uh you know carrying on their own little convers ations moving around so you sort of feel like it's a living world whether there's you know 50 other players there or there's just you um so let's just head up here we're going to find cafe muan uh which is uh where miles is uh hanging out there we go and there you go looks like

27. 00:22:38

    there's miles there in the corner glad you can make it grab a seat all right sorry for the local don't look like much but the homemade stuff has some kick anyway a job came in late last night some idiot hauler cut through lowex space got his crew vented company needs to retrieve the ship's Black Box to claim insurance on the lost cargo should be a romper job get in get out all my people are tied up with bigger HS so I figured I could use this as a

28. 00:23:26

    chance to make a new friend I'll in the details let me know if you're interested so uh we can either accept the decline but we're going to check the details first so let's pull it up this l so the mission that we can take is the dunder Sun B4 which is a St car far it's attacked by Outlaws yesterday crew and cargo presumed lost uh unfortunately the pilot deviated from intended path into a monitor space and all conceived attempt to shave time off their route that means Dunder shipping needs the Black Box data retrieve from the wreck in order to be

29. 00:24:13

    reimbursed by insurance company for the last cargo so the deliverables the blackbox data from the Dundon Sunbeam 4 and we'll be paid 3,000 credits for that so uh sounds like a mission we should take so let's do that okay there you let's great here's the tracking address for the ship let me know once you have the blackbox data okay we have a new objective retrieve the black box so uh let's head back out to uh uh the the landing area and uh meet Chris up and let's go look for a black

30. 00:25:08

    part and yeah we're we're kind of sort of speed running through lavski here but there's a lot of other areas out here there's a whole ventilation saf system that goes the back and there's sort of catacombs and tunnels and leki and some of them won't be monitored so you could perhaps um get attacked there's a hospital where you would wake up if you um died in space uh like I said there's uh conscientious objects over there with the various different things that you could buy so there's a lot of different shops and things that you can do as you move around uh in leki or the other Landing areas all right so let's just head up to

31. 00:25:56

    the lobby and then there there's Chris fely waiting for us outside and head up to hang a tree

32. 00:27:23

    all right there we go and as we're coming here Chris is coming out to get us little quit oh look at that Landing brilliant all right let's uh let's just check our let's check our mission uh make sure we got everything sorted out here on the the mission scheduler so okay so we're uh locate the star recor right TR the back box okay cool hey Chris where you you didn't get us you you left us there we went

33. 00:28:15

    boy lachete all right we're just showing that isn't on Rails at all okay all right so uh let's get the backup and uh since we're going to be heading into UNM monitored space uh Glen's going to get in our back turret uh to make sure that uh in case we get attacked we'll have all hands on deck Jared remember we don't want to have the second monitor down there there you go thank you we'll switch to it later um okay so we'll pull out here and so you saw in pupil the planet but this is all real time live while we're

34. 00:29:04

    flying around we just went to this incredibly detailed location it's all coming in uh so as we had now okay let's do the picture and picture did we lose that we didn't have matter picture and picture Jared picture and picture go there go right so we'll we'll start to head up and once we've cleared the atmosphere uh which you'll see on Chris's screen uh we'll be able to quum drive and you can see in the distance where leki is with the four different landing pads the various sort of mining towers and again like I said this is all seamless we're streaming in we're streaming out we're not there's no loading screens there's no nothing so we're just heading through

35. 00:29:53

    the atmosphere now again you can sort of see the the scale and scope of the worlds we have it's not small spheres and there's no clip ranges and drawers as uh so in terms of size and quality we're really very happy with it so uh let's see we cleared the atmosphere now so yeah let's give it a few more as we just get out as we pull away now more into space and uh okay let's uh Quantum Drive to the location we have for the staff era so locations one of the Moon around dear so small asteroid field here and that's the last known location that

36. 00:30:42

    we're heading towards right now oops a couple of pirates so I guess it's time for Glen to ear his uh his stripes in the turret that's a nice shooting okay one

37. 00:31:40

    more all right come on you go GL um Chris you going to take all the glory youve got it now Glen shoot it what's that come on guys all right

38. 00:32:33

    missile all right okay who said the freelancer didn't kick some ass uh and by the way I don't know if you've noticed it but the music's been sort of changing dynamically as we've been playing so uh you're actually listening to the first version of our sort of music logic system that fades in and out and depends on what's Happening um so I I think we may debut that in Star Marine the 2.6 patch but it'll definitely be in 3.0 um so here we are we're coming uh towards the star Fara which looks like it's uh not come off very well all right okay so let's get in the back and uh Glenn's

39. 00:33:25

    going to open the back door there we go and so one of the other you know great things about sty citizen You' be walking around a space station walk out get in a space ship fly a million kilometers uh land on a planet get out get a mission get back in your ship fly to an asteroid uh little belt around a moon and come across the space track all seamlessly all the stuff going from one one sort of operation on for FPS Eva space fly um so it looks like uh the there's been full decompression and it's vented inside uh you want to yeah and if we

40. 00:34:14

    look at yeah you can see we can see uh through the dark there you go you can see little Glenn outside let's start Eva uh there we go we follow him okay back to Glenn and let's uh let's look for a way in uh to the star Farah W some pretty catastrophic damage all right let's let's look back and see there there's Chris waiting for us

41. 00:35:04

    oh looks like we can get in this way so let's head in here what that's how it looks one the crew member

42. 00:36:03

    that um unfortunately did do2 well okay let's just push him out of the way a bit let's head on let's try to find the the uh the Captain's Room so we can uh download the block box and so of those of you have a staa of hung out around on staa you'll appreciate that it's a it's a you know not a small ship so we're just moving around here it's see another crew member that had an untimely divide as demise it's actually uh that heads the scan version of uh Kyle who's one of our it guys in the UK office so why don't you give Kyle a bump sorry Kyle

43. 00:36:59

    all right let's let's head in all right okay we're downloading the uh Black Box poof download complete so there we are objective complete we retrieved the Black Box we just made 3,000 credits uh mission's now complete um the possible security job we had and uh we've just now got a video message coming in so uh let's uh let's listen to that

44. 00:37:53

    CL got the blackbox data and verified it I'll send it off great job you know I'm just going to throw this out but I ended up talking to a couple of contacts of mine turns out the pack that hit that ship were squatting in an old facility on that nearby Moon I'm just talking here but it's not crazy to think that they're keeping the cargo there these Outlaws are scum so it's not like anyone will miss the company's going to claim the insurance so it wouldn't technically be stealing if you happen to to head on down and take it again not saying anything here I'm just go send along a location on that Moon and do what you

45. 00:38:48

    want so we have a new uh additional message reclaim St and cargo if we want to take it so we can like pull up our mission uh thing and uh I think why the hell not what do you guys you want us to go to the find the stolen cargo all right okay let's let's do it glad there we go all right okay uh all right well let's uh let's find a way out of the stuff era here for a heavy Alor takes a fair amount of

46. 00:40:37

    damage all right finally all right okay let's down here we're in the kaga hold to the star Farah push him away push ah

47. 00:41:36

    so I think you guys know about the Drake dragonfly then obviously all right there we go all right so let's head back to the star Fara I mean sorry the freelancer um but yeah so yeah I probably don't need to introduce it with the dragonfly uh you know we I think announced and sold a few months ago uh but it's our you our first sort of space motorbike or space hog if you want to

48. 00:42:24

    call it and it has a dual purpose because it also have it has whole gravl system so when you're on a planetry Surface you're like a you know land speeder um uh so which is pretty pretty cool you never know that may be something that happens here in this demo there you are and there's uh little CR Chris is there waiting for us patiently in the freelancer can you look down look around or

49. 00:43:15

    something all right let's kind of bring it in here we go slowly so we don't necessarily your your dragonfly will just about fit in a freelancer but probably want a slightly bigger ship to fit him in than than this but yeah let's bring him in here we oh there he is so let's lock up the back door what's

50. 00:44:03

    that yeah no that actually did that that that a graphical bug and that's actually something we haven't seen in all our playthroughs at the moment but occasionally when you take a a vehicle spaceship from inside a local grid of another spaceship out to the spa big Global space grid into the low grid of another one that's a degree of difficulty 11 all right so we're going to head to the move to look for this parir of Base I do picture and picture

51. 00:45:21

    Jared all right going to get on our space uh we to get on the dragon fly all right okay getting these things in and out of each other isn't always easyest thing so let's see what happens complete and you're decoupled oh okay now you couple you're going to okay let's couple and go into grab left mode right hang on who's that

52. 00:46:15

    this let's do some firing so here we are t s you get a first person view if you are all right Chris should help out with the other dragon fly so we want to cut you Jared you want to cut to Gregor and his dragon fly Let's uh player three jar there you go so this is Gregor here

53. 00:47:03

    playing uh the he's playing a black dragonfly up he got killed all right player one now uh back to player two sorry player two player two there you go perfect play two red one Jared red one all right so let's head to the the pirate base see where the Rover is the is the rover still getting away from us oh there it is so uh go to player four Jared okay back to player two actually all right let's go after go first person view uh first person

54. 00:48:11

    view Melissa there you go you why you raming into the thing go first person view first person so you know where you're going but you're ramming into the thing go around to yeah I guess do all right pirate over here you're out of

55. 00:49:55

    ammo Chris you may have to land and help out here all right well I guess I guess that's one way to get rid of pirates okay so let's see what they were hiding here on their base okay here we go all right big BET's CR as he always says and uh all right let's take uh so again here's sort of a example of the inner thought so let's pick it up there we go

56. 00:50:43

    so little grabby hands action so you'll be able to move and take things around as uh as I've mentioned before so let's take him out uh you want to land uh land the free land and they start loading up the the cargo Glenn walks very slowly he doesn't want to drop the Box all right look at that right come out the back there let's just put the box down at the base here to Chris can go get it all right all

57. 00:51:36

    right hang on we got an incoming video message let's check that out Chris should come out and get the box SI so find anything good if you don't mind I'll just have a look my s that doesn't sound very good don't know about that uh where you Reon guys UPS Daisy looks like we got double crossed damn it that's the end of the day
