2. 00:00:48

   everything together and they're trying to get the right network cables I'm trying to get the the correct microphone live looks like a penis you know and things like that so that we can do this week to do the show properly we're recording this broadcast for everybody in case they missed it you guys can probably record it on your ear too which is fine that's great we're going to put a small snippet out Michael cut that together and having you know Monday special guest today is mr. been listening Ben won't you tell her introduce yourself until I remind yourself they probably ready know you and but you're also doing some design work yes I'm also kind of transitioning

3. 00:01:39

   and everyone here is wearing many hats right yeah yeah we may not be wearing a hat in here but we are certainly wearing hats from for reals yeah and so Ben's been amazing he helped us a lot on the campaign you guys have brought all the updates to god anything you get from the community PR wise as far as you know on the comm links on the emails a lot of stuff has to go through Ben he's like the he's like that was it's a real quiet cuz I can barely hear you so Ben you need to speak the hell up I will allow how's this how about I'm Lucas no I don't have to speak up right folks I'll move the mic over to Bend is that better how does that testing testing you gotta say cool words like testes testes yes we shut the door here all right so because I'm just thinking that

4. 00:02:39

   they're doing the wiring out there and we don't want to hear that stuff so anyway we've we're gonna have a weekly show it's going to be going on every week every Friday 11:00 a.m. central I mean we'll take some questions this week we're you know we're gonna take I believe about ten of the questions from them from the forum ten of the best questions are the ones that we're allowed to answer if you people want a lot more information than well yeah there's gotta be some secrets in here like the fact that we're not wearing pants and that's not a secret that's true that's true so why don't we start with that one of the questions on the last bit so it seems pretty close to this oh by the way by the way before we get into this I've got to give Big Ups to pleasure you guys are probably the most amazing community I've ever seen on any game ever and pleasure created some

5. 00:03:28

   artwork for us for the show and I want to bring this up what you guys see a little bit of it it's made of it but check this out pleasure put this together for our show excellent job I mean this guy is amazing he's done he's got some amazing stop decreed like it creates Bob thanks for she created some some you know shirt designs some hats which I'm still not gotten dang it anyway you know all kinds of cool stuff and which makes us just to make these amazingly talented and pleasure thank you very much first thanks to everybody but thank you to pleasure for creating that it's also gonna be on my door up on the way into my office which is you know a big deal because I I think it's badass so chilly so now if we butcher your name tough so

6. 00:04:21

   from TC quinoa quinoa since I have a question if I got a pirate ship and I want to fly on the Yui system will I be shocked to death my military place or is it based on my reputation he wants to buy a Cutlass but he's not sure to build a quiet if he's not interested in becoming a pirate okay and anyone goodbye the Cutlass that's not going to be the defining factor people thinking you're a pirate it's all reputation system so you can flag Cutlass you can explore with it you can do legal bounty hunter missions that sort of thing without a problem other players may look askance at you because I guess the fiction is that this company Drake creates these chips that everybody knows they're for piracy they're legitimate businessmen but everybody knows they're making these ships for pirates so other players may

7. 00:05:09

   look at us gasps but they will they'll be able to scan you and see you you're a good citizen yeah you know kind of think of it like you know the whiskey runners from American past rightward you can still buy a nice for two-door coupe right but those they suit those up and flew around and so the cops never knew who is the good guy or the bad guy now they could know by reputation maybe they've got certain fender type or certain skin on them they would know that that was a pirate same kind of thing and this is in this situation they'll know you buy your rep not necessarily buy your ship because they have the fun of you it's all about your personality you want whatever ship you want you were going to support that I think we'll be seeing lots of pirates with constellations not confirming that for the record we are neither confirming

8. 00:06:10

   nor denying which you'll be able to blow up set plant or moon that's no moon anyway from will go on the next question here so good question from TC Finland MC grunts this one I think I can easily get his name right MC cry he wants to know okay all right it could be gruff but there's no a it's just right and he said he's a big grandma grunts Mick grunt I guess he's worse you know through McDonald's or something - correct we'd like to know with a special add-ons battalion or star Fair Corvette Mendel fighter become available for purchase for those who place the Kickstarter's they will yes if you there's the extra money for the special stuff during Kickstarter we're working on an update to the site that's gonna let you go in and assign that money where it was supposed to go so it's

9. 00:06:59

   coming don't worry we're working on it so the answer is yes yes just to be clear in the entrance the answer of the day is yes we did not take $1,000 your veteran we are broadcasting from BA Hons yes please thank you from Crete we've got another question here coming up from Creed's I have a question for the Mater community specifically from 3 to 4 3d artists we only use 40 artists here so if you're not 40 artists to go back in time yeah which means the games are you shipped in their role in the world when we can when can we expect to get the engineering guy three that ship requirement specifications or star citizen so we can submit our models

10. 00:07:46

    ready for use when the time comes that's a great question it is a big question I know you don't want to hear this but it's gonna be able to get out I know you're not gonna want to hear this but it's gonna be much closer to launch we're still figuring out our own rules right now for how the ships are going to work we are going to make sure we get that information out to you as fairly as it's possible to do so but it's it's months or a year away at least yeah I mean we've got to we're creating the whole rule set we're creating the entire pipeline for putting the art into the game I mean even though we've got this really badass demo you know it's just a demo we've still got the entire rule set of the world of the universe to create so bear with us you know you'll be watching along the way these questions will become you know easily answered as we go you know a lot of people ask yourselves but this is why

11. 00:08:35

    we do the show oh this is a good name okay so he's called toast which is what chris Roberts is when he plays me in ping-pong he's toast yeah that's probably not going to the edited version okay since how do we like our new digs nice to see David Letterman come on boards jump way out of here oh it is nice to see David Letterman it's really good any other fundation gaming HP district on board which you'd like to work with more orange and different endless Steve Jackson games alum I try and track down I probably can answer this one myself right so first of all David Letterman was a huge coup for us you know we worked here torchin and he is amazing you saw the first edition of judgment the first edition of jump point he's gonna continue to - he's come on board as the jump plane editor and he'll

12. 00:09:22

    be responsible for creating that every month for our subscribers there's a lot more stuff to be announced for the subscribers for working on that now you know the it's a balance because we want to make sure we support everybody that's supported us to this point but we also want to get something a little special to subscribers because they're you know they're they're giving a little extra for for a little more access than everybody else now that doesn't mean you people won't get access because clearly you will the wingman's hangar wing men's hangar will always be available to everybody because this is something we'd like to do and keep the community updated as far as more industry bets yeah you know I'm talking to a lot of people right now I'm I'm just in charge of hiring with a company right now and you know being that we're in Austin

13. 00:10:09

    there's a lot of interest in working on the project and there's a lot of interest from our side and some of the talent that we worked with an origin and digital ample the key will be getting the right talent I mean we are very chemistry orient in here I always found that if people like each other and people work well on environment that it just creates a nice maelstrom of work flow that allows you to have the magic right okay what you want to avoid is something that it's so dominate or so over the top that you can't get it done so we're currently talking to 4x or tonight's and if I have my way at least two of them will be coming on board so I can tell you here they are actually you know it's interesting there is one that's coming on in two weeks our chief visual officer but I don't think he's actually quit his job

14. 00:10:59

    in the movie industry local you might be able to figure I do that it it was a special digital effects supervisor perhaps a local movie industry in Austin anyway so we'll go on from that let you guys let you guys figure it out yeah we've already done that one like we should we talk about the wingman sign would play pleasure again thank you we had our producer just come in here and say talk about the wingman sign thanks Skippy we're talking about the we're gonna talk about the women so this is going to be called wingman it's hanger the wingman side anyway so let's go the next one it's from Salkin up lock it's about the constellation now that's a good question we'll be able to hire NPC as crew members or when they're we just onboard AI building into space yes that Missy is coop crew members yeah

15. 00:11:51

    you'll see a guy in the extra seats yeah so further emphasized that there are gonna be in PCs are a little smarter than others just like people so you'll be able to hire better pilots they'll be ratings I think that we'll put a rating system in there for the embassies and if you want to have an ace you know character exactly you know that we rep just like us just like everybody in the game the reputation system is going to be you know gold so NPCs will be on that - at least in this instance ok alikat says on your last hanger broadcast nicely done you mentioned coming over in Germany in February any

16. 00:12:40

    more details and is it a public event well I can't give any more details on it but I can't tell you we are coming to Germany we're going to the Crytek we're going to go look right ticketing we've got a couple Crytek people that have come on board and we're going over some some some serious bootcamp type training with our elite programs and stuff is it public maybe I mean we hadn't really thought about that that's a good question maybe we make it some Guillory sort of you know get together and have some beers because the wingman and all the people at cloud imperium like beers especially German beers in Germany yeah German beers in Germany we didn't get these smell figures by just not drinking beer we worked at this very hard years years of practice and I don't

17. 00:13:30

    know you know I've been in bodybuilding for 20 years and it's just that I'm building a pyramid so all right so we've got we've got /your 54 will you be sharing any design Doc's concept arts for the big classes or we have to wait till gay movies I think you'll be seeing something maybe not immediately but you're definitely gonna see some bigger ships in the coming months yeah and just so you know we are literally we are doing all the concept stuff now so you know we don't like to release stuff too early you saw how it held the freelancer when it got released that people are saying it looks like a ginormous penis and and they were not happy but it was just it was just a work in progress so part of it is we've gotta educate you not you guys obviously

18. 00:14:19

    anybody watching this show as well and for know you guys know what the hell you're talking about but you know we've got to make sure when we release something that people understand where it is the process what's coming up and we're releasing it to get it feedback right yeah basically the ship design process you take a penis and you kind of shave it down there is no shaving penises here that's in the Arctic yes yeah I don't think that actually happens this is my way this show is not fit for HBO all right so anyway the answer that God asked questions yeah they'll be coming in the future as it comes up and we've got a higher key and moving down the list of assets you got an asset list we're creative ships as we

19. 00:15:06

    go and there's a lot to be designed we kind of want to throw some of some of the stuff we want to say you know how would you guys envision stuff well watch some contest coming up for you guys to get in on going forward which we you know which one else later and you're gonna stuff you pledge for first so yeah 300 I consolation I mean we've got don't forget in twelve months here race it's eleven and a half now we've got the alpha multiplayer coming up which should have all the ships we got to start with the ships that you guys bought and then we'll populate the rest of the world you know based on that you know I can't wait to see the armadillos yet or the lightning bug right Joss Whedon yeah right so desperately want the lightning bug we'll see if I can get

20. 00:15:54

    that by Chris chaos Griffin has a question he says my question is simply regarding custom skins customization of the ships we all know CID is created custom ships cans in the way to change him with a flip of the switch is CID planning on allowing custom player made skins and decals to be uploaded in the persistent universe in the absence of custom skins will the players be able to change primary secondary tertiary color patterns on the ships by the way thanks for work using tertiary yeah we're all very impressed with your word power yes short answer is yes but we don't know to what extent yes we don't want a universe where everyone is going around with bright pink spaceships that's right kind of take you out of it but we definitely want to give you the option of

21. 00:16:41

    customizing everything making you ship you should be your avatar so we want we wanted to represent you so but again that's gonna have to be approved at some point gonna be an approval process it will have to go through because we don't he don't want bloggers scans I mean I don't know if you guys ever play like the original half-life and half-life where people were going around the spraying naked ladies in the walls and stuff and you know while I was enjoying that myself my wife's didn't enjoyed much and I'm certainly my kids wouldn't either so it could be a situation where maybe we have some controls where the custom skins are all only seen by your own on your own server yeah well maybe give people a there's the option their credit off skins so they don't have to see other people's naked ladies yeah we could or

22. 00:17:30

    equal to see that's that's I guess the answer that it's it's to be TBD but anything it has a potential we're trying to avoid anything has potential for briefing or to be abused so that's going to require a lot of thought on our part and so the answer that is forthcoming as in not really answerable at this point but the important thing is we are thinking about exactly that arrays we are we're thinking about lots of stuff apparently shaving wieners is one of Ben's thinking hey I didn't design the freelancer no but you've got pictures of it all over your wall I do yes well okay so this is a great question from Andy its regards to the referral contest when we know the winners of the referral contest the winners and grand prize runner-up to know that they are winners winners do not know yet as you may have read today in the update

23. 00:18:19

    the Kickstarter integration has been going slowly we've got 7500 people who still have not clicked on the link to in great discounts and we want to give them a chance to add their names to their whoever referred them so we're giving them until end of the day Sunday to put in the referral and the winner on Monday and asking on Wednesday my bolonia swans to see your new tattoo people it must have been following me on Twitter I can show you my new tattoo I guess well do I have to it's up to you how bad you guys want how badly do you want to a new tattoo where is it well thank you yeah you can show the tattoo another day we're going to show a tattoo this one's probably not me it's me it's me alright good show the tattoos this is the first

24. 00:19:12

    on Wing Commanders hanger you do that it's bad can you see that can you can you get it closer to the camera I can ponder the camera yeah yeah that's badass tattoo from Starship Troopers yeah all right there you go not only that we were new so also referral contest I believe that they have to wait to reach out and give their approval don't we yeah if we reach that a lot of people if you get me if you get something it says we need your permission to announce you're the winner make sure you respond to that because if you don't respond well all of us have to take down the next time and by the way just so you know we still have quite a

25. 00:20:07

    few Kickstarter folks that have not registered RSI so if you're watching this and you are Kickstarter make sure you get registered on the RSI website so that you get all the things that you're you know I'm supposed to be good at you qualify for yeah you should have gotten an email there's custom link you have to click to attach your Kickstarter page in our site account all these searches should be there check your spam folder if you don't see it and if it's not their email Pete and I'm sure all right there's one last question then we'll take a couple from the chat role and then we'll be done well actually get to get back to work today for this is from latwon and he or she or it says how we do how do you know that mod tools' can't be used as cheap

26. 00:20:55

    tools yeah go ahead the mock money only applies to the servers you set up so you can't just go ahead and my central you know the game servers are not gonna be monocle the main main server will not be model now we are coming up with the process where if people come up with amazing miles they can submit consider them for any debate universe but that's a longer approval processes yeah I mean we're looking at a lot of things like that like if somebody makes something really cool like a mod or practice ship or something maybe we find some way of allowing them to sell that in our universe and splitting the profits with you guys but we've got to find the legalities of that and see if it works and you know to be honest with you the talent out there in this community is

27. 00:21:45

    unbelievable I mean you amazing stuff so we'd like to tap into some of that because everybody likes to tap into some of that yeah I know we can't have enough penis jokes here can we all right let's take a couple let's take a couple chatroom questions and then okay there's a question there from it's going too fast so mater can upgrade my pledge ship will I get the same items I would get from the Kickstarter pledge if you depends on when you registered if you register before November 26 I think you'll get all the same things if you upgrade or buy another pledge right now if you return after that you will just get the whatever's currently offered at the site hey you know I was thinking too and it might be something we could do this just

28. 00:22:33

    off the cuff here you know how we have the really cool story someday panicking oh yeah which are returning soon by the way returning soon to a computer near you would it be cool if we could have a contest with one of the stories will we let me put a graphical bit around there like some friends that would let me just have a contest like community because I've literally gotten tons of graphical frames or a graphic novel tile type style stuff from our community about things like the chatroom it'd be really cool to actually have that you know to like graphically represent the stories I mean we're all big fans of that correct in about saying yes yes we are hi Jane hi Zane how are you is saying here by the way I don't know she's only one of the she's like one of the three

29. 00:23:23

    girls it's honor roll I think the other day a snow wolf is on there Zane's on there and I think Eddie is also a girl Eddie aren't you a girl or are you just acting like one on the Internet I'm just teasing buddy I know he's a guy I just see him typing here oh come on ask nothing you know I'm teasing you because I love you I love you I want your book light oh man someone some of this you're welcome adding that you your your top nice as far as I'm concerned there seems to be question suggestions how all torques work as you got a point in space and the pilot rolls wool the turret move with the ship yeah yeah answer is yes I will I mean the

30. 00:24:14

    idea mr. Chris has been very specific about us wanting to be a Newtonian physics scholarship so if you're in the turrets and keep trying now you're gonna blocks I mean the idea is some of the turrets will have missiles and locks and stuff a manager right that you can obviously upgrade your ship to get so maybe once it rolls out of your range and still be locked in for time and then you pop on this lock they can still track them but the ship rolls your turrets gonna roll with it and your area new is gonna change can I do and fly the ships like I knew it in freelancer that's gonna have to be you always ask the toughest questions oh speaking of star citizen cards you like I believe you asked my star citizen cards

31. 00:25:01

    Sandy's making the run of those we I think we're just waiting on the rest of the Kickstarter people again Tim Lane what's the Kickstarter folks link then we have all star citizen cards with your run through we're gonna make one run cuz it's a one-time deal only starts to sue cards are not available you know for purchase they're like for early people there you know your dummy people are gonna have it's kind of like the golden ticket maybe if you were lucky enough to find us before we announced it I mean you've got a golden ticket and that's cool now that doesn't mean there won't be other cool things popping up because there will be you know will be having stuff like for contest winners and things that I'm sure are going forward but you know sometimes people like a little something that separates them but you know what we've already separated ourselves for the rest of the world I mean we've got over hundred thousands of

32. 00:25:48

    fans in our community that are all passionate and want this game and it's pretty much a miracle yeah biggest project and we have to say thank you we gotta say that enough we wouldn't be here without you guys absolutely right and and I'm sorry we had to change the name from woman's nuts because that was cool but we're now going to be we max hangar and fortunately for us again pleasure and the sign so do we have to do any other things to add before we for sign off and get back to the office and get back to work no good okay we got it looks like some great Easter I get the questions in pretty quickly we could actually maybe we can get Mike in here

33. 00:26:36

    to read the question to us off camera hey Mike should we get Mike in here maybe we can show you this bald spot hey Mike because Mike can you pick a question off the chat will read it to us off cam and show yourself on camera first someone hey you guys know Mike yeah because the more liberal of these kind of things so take a question off there and ask me you guys need to hold the chat wheel down slow your roll that's kind of like the layaway plan did

34. 00:27:29

    we ever get a solution for that we know there's gonna be a cut-off and it's gonna be in the near future because we have to wrap it at reproduction right yeah we have to do production wrong we have to cut it off at some point and you know I would just have to beg and borrow the money from anybody I could sell crack black tar heroin whatever it takes get the cash I'm just kidding obviously you know where you start a church yeah not kidding there too let's get a real question Carver Brian asks can we get the jacket before cards get set in stone dad wouldn't guarantee that so yes let's suppose avoid the questions about the consistent cars because what we make it one run on the city cards guys one and so we have to cut it off so it's kind of

35. 00:28:18

    like we're not going to extend that out everybody's just gonna lock down there because you know there so we'd like to see our that's a great question okay so how the office looks will be shown what we'll do is we'll do a walk around on next week's Wing Commander or or all the way minutes anger the Wing Commander look at that figure out about ten to fifteen years ago on back at origin I'll tell you what we'll do we'll do a walk-around of the office and then in the coming weeks and you guys can see how it's changed and it has changed dramatically so listen on that little sit on that so listen we appreciate everybody come here thanks for logging in the windows hangar this is actually thanks again probably really appreciate thanks for coming thank you for everything your friends

36. 00:29:13
