00:05:00
a very small amount of subscriber patch that's left do you have the subscriber patch up there that you can show off oh here's the money patch o I think there was like 10 of those left when I checked a few minutes ago so you iron them on I I think that is an iron on backing yeah I think so I feel like this is the home shopping me high quality Iron explain how how you actually put it on the this is just a really fantastic product this is this is going to last for years and yearses yes you can I so it on the back right yeah there's usually an adhesive on the back I think that's what I'm not entirely sure if these are iron on though cuz we we usually send a little sewing kit with them do you have an ironing board jard yes all right there you go I want to iron another piece of and then and then we'll see here I can put one on my
00:05:49
hoodie here oh there you go like if we had an iron no we don't Sandy would you work on this week what didn't I work I going say you've been around the world this week I know I know I have I've also got got some other exciting news that I can't share they always love to hear that they always love to hear their stuff we can't tell them did we show the constellation box we have not I was waiting for you all right there the samples for the the collector's box ooh now don't let's see if we can get this if you can see this it's actually embossed so at an angle you can see that it's actually raised up maybe you turn it turn it back turn flip it over yeah flip it over flip it over yeah it's actually embossed off the box there so
00:06:41
this is just a proof of concept here yeah I think that's the that's the size and then um it'll open out like a I'm deciding how it will open out whether it will open out like this or whether it will open out like that MH so let us know in the forearms what your preference is you know it's important remember the one that we did with the uh the cap where it was um yes yeah that was fun and the finished product will have all six sides no we're going to do two dimensional boxes it's going to and then what else am I working on uh the USB um so I just got the artwork in to make the USB uh the Connie shape for this box and then hopefully I can do a hornet and a freelancer as well we'll
00:07:29

00:15:30
word question in Brackets uh this can be in either the RSI chat or the twitch chat so it just helps us pick it out from all the other rabble that's going on uh so we'll start taking questions uh from the fans I'm I I'm seeing a lot of con citizen card questions go by uh no update right now we're still working on them guys I promise we'll update you as soon as we do um I did talk to behavior yesterday about uh concierge hanger there however um and that is something we are going to work into the schedule for 2016 so you can look forward to a very special concierge flare coming soon and we all know the ones you want yes we know that the uh top hat and monacle was highly requested so I believe that's
00:16:20
high up there on our list here's a question from Little KX Rena have they have they plugged the questions thread for our 104 on Monday uh we're filming a new 104 this uh this afternoon guys so if you have questions for the next 104 it's going to be a 10 for the all stars we're actually taking members from the design team the writing team the art team and the producing team so if you've got your star sis and questions uh post them in one of the relevant threads on our forums and we'll be filming that later today there you go little kale room what else we got is was that actually kx's asking or was it like a KX fan no no no no it was KX okay no I would have been more impressed if it was like someone who was so impressed with KX that theyve P in their life after him
00:17:08
which I could see happening impressed or surprised possible no I'm impressed Kix cosplay yeah let's see where else we got going uh let me just also put a PSA out there about uh support tickets we are very very very backed up right now that is both concierge and the regular que so um please be patient unmount requests are currently on hold if you have a request in right now uh We've placed it on hold for the time being if you haven't submitted one please hold off for a few more weeks because it would help us greatly so thank you you actually have soon trademarked no we don't don't what does the TM stand for then
00:17:59
trademark just a joke okay it's humor I'll tell you about what that is oh my God uh any news on org 2.0 that's a that's an All-Star question we get that every week uh no news yet was not an allar answer no it's basically we don't sit on stuff like that when there's news well you'll have it um questions about when guys when this ship when that ship when this patch will be released dally speaking we can't answer those it's when it's ready although I forgot about this in the news round up we uh we pushed uh 1.3 to the PTU midweek and we actually pushed an update last night um buggies are going crazy and exploding and crashing and
00:18:48
turning over um it's a good time uh so if you ever want to you know play a a little bit more broken version of star seon with some new stuff uh get on over the PTU uh another request we've had from folks in the PTU is to let them test you know you can you know you can't do wreck in the P or any of that uh let them test the new weapons let them test specific shifts and stuff uh I'm happy to announce that that is happening now um over the weekend we're going to give folks in the PTU access to um a hornet f7c uh cutless black the new weapons mounts and the new weapons that are going into the PTU so you'll be able to play around with all those uh without spending any money or uh begging for wreck or anything like that so uh fun broken game testing weekend hooray it sounds like a good
00:19:41
time when is the saber Q&A going to be released then why the sa Q&A will be released a little bit later today um I would actually say probably within the hour after ATV uh ends cuz we've already got the answers I going to do a little bit of uh bed polishing to them um but they got in the UK were fantastic we got stuff in on time um we'll be uh available shortly would you say that you had to put the Vishing touches on it I probably would not say that personally but there's something you won't say that's right any joke that comes from somebody else that only does his own stupid I only do my own material I'm not one of those people who goes off and do like an album cover a little jaded there anybody else's and big thanks to uh Tom Johnson and John crew for those answers with the
00:20:28
uh the saber Q&A uh John crew being the the lead designer over there yes yeah so again that should come shortly after when we're done here we'll get that up in fact I was setting up the uh the layout for the post when we the show started and everybody was making fun of me for having the wrong skew in it it was showing the uh the mugs instead of the uh instead of the saber now fixed it's because we have so many skews now from all the CC new CCU that's another thing that happened with the CCU system and people seem to be loving it yes and the referral system which people are liking but not loving um the the issue with the
00:21:16
referral system is obviously we've been going you know having the campaign for two years and uh there are lots of folks who have already brought their friends and we would love to find a way to include them in the system but there's not can't think of how that would work it you know it's too much potential for abuse to just say hey tell us if you are friends with somebody um but uh you know we press start for referrals we're happy with it um and there's going to be some more referral items Beyond uh what was listed so I think we go up to like 10 referrals I think there's a 25 and there's a 42 and there's 100 so uh keep referring you see referring prefer refer you want referen no no I said prefer PR that's that's what I heard in my head I
00:22:05
know it didn't make any sense which is why I ask something on RTV doesn't make sense it's also jump Point day it is Jump Point day which means we all get to stay really late um no um I didn't write a story for this week's jump point or month's jump point so maybe it will be on earlier fingers crossed uh jump point this week includes a really big interview with the folks at uh Foundry 42 Germany um talking about the meat and potatoes of the game um the main subject is the Endeavor um so you you'll follow the development of the Endeavor with h Jim Martin and all those other friends including some content from me there you're going to see some of my original design docs um
00:22:54
yeah jump point it's what's for dinner if you eat really really late is cig aware that the BBC have picked up on our million citizen story no but that's awesome um I was aware well fancy you I can read yeah I know they they picked up on the the million citizen they had a story out this morning or last night depending on where you are in the world I suppose yeah it was very cool cool nice to see we're getting out there yeah uh and it feels like there's so much good news lately we should finally get some good press sh sh want Med you love us please we don't get good press no it's hard being the sucessful crowdfunding whatever trying to do things different yeah it rubs a lot of
00:23:42
people okay Steve Jobs I understand I saw brid SP is that that came out this weekend too we good no wow really no it was it it was another one another another big Steven Spielberg historical thing was it boring yeah it was like warhorse or uh you know what I was really for warhorse too warhorse War Horse what did they do to you warhorse why did they make you a warhorse ask questions please maybe if they made the horse talk hi Gio get money um yes cross chassis downgrades are they still a thing they're in the works it'll take some you know we changed the plan we're not going to
00:24:31
charge you for them um but it'll take a little bit of time to figure out how to do them yes I think we're yeah yeah got a couple plans plans within plans just a matter which one works out will the Phoenix enter a modular resale like the Retaliator did uh when yeah not not like the Retaliator but when the uh when it's ready to when the new constellation is ready to fly I imagine we'll do a promotion or something yeah I mean Fenix will be a little bit different cuz it's a limited number of them um I mean I know a lot of those have been melted and we we could probably sell a couple hundred phoenixes uh we we'll look at that when uh when
00:25:19
it's ready to be flown around we reserve the right to have options uh any news on the free freelancer or guys forgotten about it all together we forgot about it all together what is the freelancer uh it was a game Chris Roberts made that's right that's right or like Chris Olivia is a freelancer we haven't forgotten about it guys just there's a pipeline there's things in the queue there's only so many people that can work on so many ships at a time so when it's ready we'll have some new info for you it's like you have have a factory where you're making a bunch of cakes and there's one part where you mix up the cakes and then another part where you ice them and you can only mix so many at a time you can only ice so many at a time and also we completely forgot about the freelancer cake we did completely forget about the
00:26:06
fre it's like in the back and like rats have eaten part of it which is amazing cuz I thought we were spending all our time forgetting about the cutless oh how could we ever forget about the cutless there's so many threads about it uh these things just take time guys the information will be there when it when it's ready to be there there's really no more complicated answer than that um will there be changes to the Hol table before 2.0 not before 2.0 but there will be changes to the Hol table yes by and by um you know holot table is when we get a lot because people hate it um a lot of us here hate it as well but it's also not something that's blocking the development of the rest of the game so we we focus on those building blocks right now whereas the
00:26:53
hollow table is is an end and you know it's it's not the ideal interface face but it is the finished Tech so it's not the priority to go back and remake it right now uh whereas something that might be blocking everything else like asteroid generation or some tech thing I don't know what it is uh it gets the priority you know fossil farming something uh indis Q&A I've see this a lot since C on people have been asking for q&as for a lot of the ships we generally do a Q&A when we've introduced a new ship or when a existing ship has hit a new point in its pipeline either being hanger ready or uh flight ready so once the idress is flight ready we might do a Q&A yes and since it's big it might be a big Q&A did you call the Idis Addis
00:27:45
Idis I yes uh we uh we may be show you a bit more of the Idis soon though because I've noticed that when we reach out to folks in the UK to ask if they can do something if it's something they can't do they will offer us interest pictures instead so at some point we'll Pi them up on that like oh we can't have the world tour right now but we could give you an in picture like oh we don't have the stats for that yet but there's some pictures of the in they are very proud of that show yes it's very cool it's like Dad showing off their kids wallet photos which I guess doesn't happen anymore cuz we have cell phones what I don't know uh I saw somebody asking about the subscriber Flare from last weekend I was just talking to turbulent yesterday I don't think we did our second uh run for that so I will make sure that happens
00:28:36
today mhm can I tell a short story about how great our fans are no no how good way is how great our fans are oh sure okay so as you know I go to the gyms in the gym in the morning and I'm wearing this shirt right why would they know that well I'm saying as you guys know not as fans know but lizen lizen like hey guys I'm cooler than all you I went to I don't have to wear a shirt there but I did but we let Justin tell story do you not have to wear a shirt to the gym like Well normally I don't but today you know after I showered in stepan was coming to work I felt like I should put one on so I put this one on right next week you're going to have a leather jacket and no shirt and no shirt that I I'm going to do that next week well this is the first time it's ever
00:29:24
happened to me but I'm going down the stairs to come to work or whatever and guys like chasing me and I'm like freaking out thinking that like I don't know what's going to happen it's the Third Street prominon well he had chased me down just to tell me how much he loves Star Citizen and I was like I didn't dare tell my work you know here or whatever third I think this the streets of Compton or something well you never know okay this is Hollywood the streets are mean here okay that's true and so I was like you know cuz I didn't want him to like know where our office was and then start you know I don't know anyways not trying to like be the one that be sure what this okay but anyway I was just thought it was awesome and it's never happened to me before that like somebody would chase me down to just be like how awesome Star Citizen is because I was wearing a shirt that had the star CI logo I feel like that was just a toy to tell everybody that you don't that
00:30:12
shirts are optional for you I don't think it was okay well my intention was to be like you guys are awesome keep chasing us down to tell us the good job we're doing and um according to everybody else it was to say that I don't wear shirts I mean I could have told that story like hey I was my way in this morning I had a Star Citizen turn on and somebody chased me I wouldn't have had to but that's all right I was just trying to paint the picture I'm going to go back and in my reink my life my intentions were good I promise we know your intentions were good love you guys posting questions from the crowd any further movement on an app version of the starm map for phones tablets uh not yet but we're looking into it I think it's a beefy beefy website I think the the starm map works on tablets now if you use it in a web
00:31:01
browser I think they actually have touch controls in there if you use a web tablet from the future it will load properly yeah it's a very robust uh starm so now we've established that the star map is both meaty and robust like a fine Italian sauce uh in the 2.0 demo uh we saw the live one at uh sagon we saw one team steal somebody else's ship m is is there a way to lock your ship yes yes so there will be uh it's it's it's not going to be that easy in the end here come see okay okay you'll have to enter the code one two three four five wait how do you know my allerg combination
00:31:49
how do you know you will never be the Emperor of a planet with that kind of security B especially not one with an a shield hey it's Matt Sherman hi Matt Sherman hey guys the workbench says it's no longer says it's for overclocking is this an error or planned uh I'm kind of guessing an error is yeah that was you'll definitely be doing tuning on your workbench um it won't be the same potency of like high-end overclocking that something like the collider will give you but yeah I mean you'll you'll need a way to tune and adjust the basics of your gear on your own so yeah I've seen this same question a couple times I think it was just somebody in turbulent cleaning up the SKS a little bit um not not a design decision to change what the
00:32:36
workbench does um also uh shout out to turbulent who I I posted the saber artwork in the vault um and I titled it potato and they our our guy had turbulent kindly he went back and changed it to saber so um about what humor was we did this on purpose we're steering into it we like potato you like potato I like potato uh will more money only items go into the BD store money only items what does that mean in that cont I well the VD the Voyager direct store is for using credits right yeah yeah so so the items in the Voyager direct store would be credits only but you can use real money to buy credits there are some new items
00:33:24
coming to the VD store next week or whenever we 1 three I don't want to say next week but probably next week yeah everybody's getting new VD nope you've gone to that well already it's dry but I haven't uh fried potato today is my birthday hi hi balron 74 happy birthday happy birthday to you happy birthday to you happy birthday valron 74 yes they just M have the same base Hall and just come with different starting equipment I believe they have a different uh a different there's one different uh thing isn't there yeah well one comes with a rail gun one doesn't yeah it's the m one has a hard point for a rail gun and the other doesn't CCH so
00:34:14
they are different uh different base halls and that gun is going to be just terrifying when it's all built out probably the largest class of a weapon that players will be able to really change out on their ships just cuz well size 12s are ginormous and bigger than a lot of our current ships um will a constellation be able to deploy a p-52 when 2.0 when it's made in 2.0 when it's made flyable wait see don't believe think the very first drop of it uh we need to get some I mean that's that's one of the other little hurdles that we need to tackle but it's definitely on the the short list of things to get get hooked up as soon as possible because that's going to be an
00:35:02
awesome just whole sequence when you're able to you know will be a fighter recover it yep somebody say St works on the Nexus 7 tablet yeah so that person is trying to advertise Nexus 7 tablets I think they're celebrating when a good job turbulent did building in Star don't let turbulent hear me say that yeah after you just told them they didn't have a sense of humor yeah I think cable went on the fritz last Friday for a couple hours after you made the time War J so yeah uh well that's probably just because time sex in general yes uh for Connie variance guys they're they're just working on the Andromeda right now uh getting that going once that's going they'll turn their attention towards the varians so that'll be a while after that no time frame someone say metal picture
00:35:52
of the constellation no will the Retaliator have normal missiles well I don't want to judge what is and isn't a normal missile um in today's society all types of missiles are acceptable but yes they probably I mean it would most likely be something that will replace the ordinance in the Bombay um I mean like any ship you'll have options on a Retaliator so having choices is always a good thing a lot of folks have been asking if there are any plans to sell the Argo uh we've talked about it um the the discussion always ends up being why would people want to buy the Argo um so maybe yeah you guys go out
00:36:43
there and demand it and it's also gameplay you know considerations we don't want a new person to come in you know who doesn't know anything about the game see the Argo go look School buy the Argo and then jump into Arena Commander with it you know that's not a good gameplay experience right there trying to dog fight or race in the Argo so it's not a thing we can just jump into there are other considerations but I think the Argo is really cool and I want one we are going to be offering one of the breakout ships in the not too distant future uh gmach is finishing up his work on the uh aredes Archimedes yes and uh we're looking forward to sharing that AR medians is going to be really cool I think the Phoenix HS are really going to enjoy it do we have a date for
00:37:32
the anniversary sale in November I believe it is November 19 check the C I think it kicks off that we and goes through the 26th seems about right what what day is Thanksgiving uh Thanksgiving is the 26th no or is it the 19th no it's the 26 yeah I believe the original campaign ended on the 26th and then Thanksgiving was later that year 2012 yes uh yeah cuz last year I remember the anniversary sale started the day before Thanksgiving fls around a little bit uh any updates on the announced trout concept sale haven't talked about the trout sale in a while I don't
00:38:21
remember just for the April fools around um somebody's digging way back for their question well good poll uh I just want to say if you remember I did not remember um we're still working on where there beautiful slime coat my impersonation of an old B I forgot all about that that was fun I want to be old then again yes yeah he there's a box of iceam for or di Dots here where to him oh never mind ouch you want to say hi nobody beard stay there we'll just turn the camera yeah his beard demands
00:39:10
to be heard be afraid be afraid nice form how you doing nice for okay I don't know if they can hear you over there cuz the mics are all over here but I'm sure he's loud enough they can hear I don't know what are you doing my Beard's catching up yours dude yeah I keep dreaming get there no give me about another month it'll be like that yeah mine's still growing so unless I cut you can't catch up four weeks yeah I Tri mine back it's pretty impressive for four weeks that is a good beard yeah it is it's solid beard it's all right right I'm going to go enjoy my sandwich now okay did backer money pay for that sandwich we'll investigate no I did not what is Daran eating I don't know look
00:40:00
like a paper plate yeah I didn't actually see a sandwich it must been a very lowlevel sandwich that was like embedded down in the paper plate uh not to cast dispersions at his sandwich design abilities yeah any news on competitive friendly features for AC or SM such as team balance or game modes we're playing around with it but not not a it's not a Focus right now we want to get the baby pu out first yeah uh every things like balancing and and just team matching are also a lot more complicated to do well and to make sure that it's something that people are going to stay engaged with so longterm yeah I mean we're going to need stuff like that but in the near future we've got a ton of other features ships and just core things that we need to get built in so we know what to
00:40:50
balance and Matchmaker around hey Alexis hey winter is coming will we see any new hoodies in the store um I probably not before 2016 but uh Sandy and I have talked about it we know you guys like the hoodies we know you really like the fabric from the hoodies so in the New Year we will get some hoodies for you guys uh I think our next our next thing uh we're going to start doing pre-orders for new polo shirts uh they'll be so they'll be ready for the spr spring time um and I believe we'll start selling those sometime in December with the S Nino we're getting them hoping to I'll actually get to wear M yeah people keep saying that there's going to be an El noo it's going to be
00:41:39
great here rain and cold like the biggest ELO hasn't happened yet yeah well no there was the flash flooding in oxar last that's what I heard I heard there's flash flooding like the five flooded over Central California got shut down yesterday it just hasn't made it down here yet yeah the mud slide is slow trickling our way uh it's about to rain outside I was just outside o that'll be good it's so humid we need it's getting ready to break any minute I saw somebody asking about bomber jackets I would love if we could do those that would be amazing um not anytime in the near future cuz those will be you know pricey super I know we've looked into it in the past um hopefully that's something we can do down the line though cuz that would be amazing oh that would be now back on the
00:42:27
win commander games at the end of the project you would always get a bomber jacket so cross your fingers my fingers you have a uh is it a wing Commander 2 bomber jacket I've got a wing three bomber jacket it's not one of the team ones it was actually a promotional jacket given to reporters in Australia but it's still really cool it is cool uh and I think uh Joe G if you saw the live stream has a couple of the team ones uh jackets gotta will there be a left-handed version of the Star Citizen scitec joystick TBD although we're working on a Q&A with scitec and they will hopefully answer that question then how cool is
00:43:14
that joystick by the way that joystick is really fluffing cool yeah it it's looking really good and the one they showed up was the was a smaller one not even the super fancy not even the fancy one it's not even its final form yeah sorry I've never even seen that show I hear that reference all the time I don't actually know where it's from uh it's Dragon Ball Z right never seen retro thrusters are we getting them on other ships now that the Sab has them you mean are we adding them retroactively my God I can't even shake my hand because I knew that's exactly where that was going on other ships um the their physical size may not always line up but I mean
00:44:02
that'll also change the game play where you'll be able to get up to speed faster than you'll be able to break down to speed so it's not just going to be one to one counter force on either side can Sherman have his own design show no cuz he works yeah Mark aen doesn't work I'm just kidding no Mark aen just works a lot early teries Mark and Tomy come in at like 7:00 in the morning to film that it's around their work schedule they exist outside the hours of human beings yes yes it's it's not there's always a balance between doing these things and not intruding on people's work we would ultimately would prefer they actually work yeah as cool as it is to have them
00:44:50
on the show get 30 minutes of L time a week what is the largest known ship that will be able to enter the atmosphere TBD we have you know a lot of people worry about that we aren't so um besides if you're too big to go in the atmosphere that means you get to use your smaller ships which is cool like the like the aredes and Aro the Argo and stuff so I actually there's different possible solutions to the problem Shi being too large for the hangers or for landing um probably the easiest one is just have them docking in orbit uh at some safe orbital dock yard and you flight on your smaller ship I want that Star Trek motion picture you know going in the
00:45:37
Shell craft yeah to my ship I like that idea so if it doesn't so if my ship doesn't enter the atmosphere that's like I'm like cool that's also why snubs all get to be Landers CU I know when the Merlin was first going in some people weren't really happy that hey they don't get Quantum or jump but those ships do get to be Landers so you know that's how you can shuttle from your your big ship down to the surface similar like what Lando was saying with the the Star Trek little runabouts what ships can host an Argo Argo comes with an Idis right or the Idis comes with an Argo right now yeah yeah um but I imagine if you get the Argo yeah it should fit into anything with the S similar side of bay yeah I mean it's it's not a giant ship um I'm
00:46:26
trying to think of what it's close to sizewise but it's I mean it's fairly small uh a little bit bulkier than like the Merlin M50 just cuz it can carry a some utility Gear with it but in the Squad 42 de in the mor tour demo it looked like a bulky Aurora like less Long more wide P yeah yeah like I thinking about maybe something in the same profile like what a hall is going to probably look like when we get that built into the hanger probably a little bit thinner than that but it's it's still a really cool ship especially with pods that's like the profile of it yeah it looks utility which is awesome hey Alexis any chance of seeing other manufacturers packages like Drake M A GS Consolidated outlands stuff like that maybe a patch set of a patch set of all
00:47:15
the different yeah totally um I actually think then you know I was saw a few requests for the uee patch set I think that's going to be our next patch set but uh manufacturer patches yeah that's definitely something we can look into for the future and those sh you remember we did those ship patches I really want to do a second wave of those those are cool patches yeah those are my favorites do we have like a jacket that the patches all could go on like like you know no we don't although that is a great idea amen I want to like Mount them onfelt from the wall yeah uh for the cutless questions uh yes John crew stated that it's currently transition to the LA office but that handoff hasn't completed yet so it's in a uh it's in a weird nether space right
00:48:04
now yeah once once we've taken it once we've taken it over and you got I got to give the guy some time to you know work on it mhm then I can map some then hopefully I can bother them for some answers but getting the work on it is more important than me pestering them for the answers so it'll be a little bit although it's funny color has been quieter lately has been qu quieter lately well I mean they did just get a new gun hey Matt any new information on the new D damage system uh's that coming along that is actually not really me that was uh the other Matt we have in the LA office Matthew and terar uh he is he is badass with tech art and making ship explosions look awesome and not
00:48:53
kill our computers at the same time so he he is doing most of that damage state stuff Y and the Pierce ability is coming uh yeah Pierce ability stuff is more a byproduct with physically based damage still being sort of looked at on how we'll be handling it overall but lots of lots of cool stuff with just components and weapons and all that down the pipe for the next couple months so it'll be good stuff got a lot of questions about how will this ship do against that ship and I think people avoid people forget to include the crew yeah in that remember the Gamescom demo where every time we practice that demo day and day out before the thing the Retaliator won and then we get to the live presentation and
00:49:42
the Connie wins so oh the same thing with the um the Marines in the last demo again it was the good guys were supposed to win every single time the Press version that we cut together as the Marines winning and then they get on stage and they no can do this so it's people tend to focus on what ship can be which ship and I I I really think the focus should be on what crew can beat what crew because that's ultimately what's going to matter so especially just the the combinatorics big like big picture for what you'll actually be able to do with like components and tuning and how you change up your ship like the uh I I was just putting some numbers together yesterday uh just from my you my last job on working on Diablo uh like the
00:50:31
constellation is going to probably have as many like component tuning and load out options as some of the characters in Diablo and that is that's a figure that's exponentially represented it's like 1.75 to the 11th power of permutational options for what you can actually do uh not all of those are are going to be ideal choices not all of those are going to be like I win type answers but just to have an insane number of choices note or something Alexis is bringing over a box that we received was it this morning or yesterday yesterday yesterday okay it's a strange box you guys can open that was received okay should we should we we got
00:51:23
it's a lovely box it's a lovely box that didn't come with any booze I thought it did a ransom note did you guys solve that actually they probably said give me that breaks my brain too here let me [Applause] see dear UE advocacy your recent activities hiring bounty hunters to secure trade Lanes interfere with grown economics in the borders this is really hard to read by the way that's s r like a sixth grade reading level this is supposed to communicate your demand we will only state this once offer the goods in this sign of goodwi you this offer they gave us a bunch of fake fake money we got a couple copies of Rise of the Shadows they start the Noella by the
00:52:13
the shadow Legion you've not read these yet so I mean maybe they're like filthy and we shouldn't promote them but pretty cool that they exist from what I can gather Shadow Legion wants us to do something so we'll look at it we'll figure out what oh there's a flag here too yes there's a flag can I throw this in the air if you pick them all up no okay that's how that works Justin here do you need some here here I'll grab that wait wait somebody here hand yes see we should just make it rain so now you get to pick them up now Justin gets to pick them up there you go wait we'll hang it behind behind that but over if you're just Tuning In Reverse the versus Cloud Imperium games
00:53:03
stream with the fans and I'm a talking goat head all right now let's recreate s's UE flag pictures uh no that's when it got too strange yeah uh no we've got nothing to say about the cutless right now it is in transition back to the LA office we got to we got to get it we got to our guys got to take it into themselves and figure out what needs to be done and St like that I'm not going to have anything for you for a couple weeks that sounds like a like a religion or something you must take the cutless into yourself oh well the way the these the cutless owners talk about it I assumed it was we love the cutless owners must eat of the Flesh of the cutless the cutless was the second so become and understand
00:53:51
it the cut this was the second ship I pledged for back in the day I'm I'm I'm looking for I'm eagly looking forward to to to it being fully realized on my ini sign off uh when 2.0 drops will there be more free fly codes uh maybe not the day it drops uh cuz while St has open to all our backers right now we really should let backers try first um as we have events and promotions following when it drops we'll certainly have free the Fri clothes that let everybody try it out but uh let's give it to our supporters first yes and for those of you asking about the sneak peek uh the last three weeks have been different views of the upcoming lighting changes to the uh suppl hanger done by our own Emy Switzer
00:54:40
he's moved on to designing the rebel and York hanger right now uh that's it for the previous folks are like oh it's the same thing oh it's three different views of the same thing but uh there will be a different sneak PE for next week's episode so we're work on that right now you can put away your pitchforks and stop your angry letters sneak Cien yeah apparently citizen gun didn't show enough people like I still want a sneak peak we know you guys want we do our best to give can't have steak every night though guys give the people what they want Jared H uh no word on the Avenger variants yet we're we're getting we're we're moving on that though so I don't don't want to spoil any of that you hear about the
00:55:28
Avenger Val variant when the time comes do we have any update on the unmelting I'm seeing a lot of questions about that and I don't actually know no update well when it happens you'll know yeah but we're still you're still pursuing it yeah okay that's good for CS um and by the way apparently wolf has sent us uh some D Dots ice cream which uh I think they're eating in the other room while we stream but uh I was going to go get it and bring it over here but we want to thank him anyway uh cuz that's awesome yes and uh there was a lunch uh lunch thrown by a couple streamers for the uh Foundry 42 guys on the 12th if I remember correctly I wasn't there so I'm only getting like third hand information but I think it
00:56:16
was Harbinger 8 and board gamer uh and their viewers who set up a a pizza and drink party and then there were some other folks who brought Donuts it was Smo Masher uh so if I'm not remembering your names properly or I'm leaving everybody out I apologize guys but uh the found 42 team was very grateful for your efforts uh so thank you so much for those who put that together for them yeah guys in founder 42 you know they don't get on screen as much they don't uh you don't hear as much about them especially since so much of their workers on Squadron 42 so uh it it meant a lot to them to have uh be given the Royal Treatment by star and backers appreciate Happ they they would you say they've been on a a full burn for a while now I don't know what you're referring to and I hate you Alexis roxon CS thank you that's not
00:57:08
a question I'll accept it though uh okay 3 minutes let's wrap it up see any we upgrade if we upgrade to a non- LTI ship if we upgrade a non-ti ship to a saber can we have LTI anyway uh no you'll be much better off melting the ship and then using the store credit to purchase the saver because then you'll get L yes uh have you all played FPS module and who is the FPS Master uh we have all played at various points in development I yes one point in particular when you played it oh that's upsetting because Paul Rendell spent the entire time team killing me I didn't get to play it at all my body was
00:57:56
just dead and I got to view other players the entire time cuz every time I spawned in Paul Rendell killed me so yeah and now we know it was deserved see see what else we got here will you allow an emote only I don't understand the question will you make the Armada pack available again for the anniversary sale please uh we might pop it up at some point in the future can't say when uh usually we like to have some reason to do these things so we went with the military stuff in Sp 42 day um also here's Dennis Daniels hi Dennis come on Dennis quick we only have I'll probably trip and
