   happy holidays and welcome to another episode of around the verse I'm eric kieron davis and i'm chris roberts we hope you've all been enjoying three-point-four and celebrating this season in-game with festive delivery missions and some fun holiday Flair yes so that outlet well the ship checkered outfit what we're calling the outlaw outfit because there's a long story behind that but we want to go into it right now is certainly very cool and fun there's been loads of screenshots people have shared and in fact Jake mockney apartment did this 3d printed version and painted it it's very loved which is very cool and a great job did promise to put some lights on it yeah which was the toss that Eric gave him didn't do a great job no one back tomorrow okay next year don't worry about that JK just

2. 00:00:54

   kidding okay great job and it's really nice so they're very fun and we've enjoyed seeing all the screenshots and submissions that you guys have done for a holiday contest as usual we've received a ton of great stuff and we're looking forward to pouring ourselves some eggnog and pouring over all the entries this is eggnog okay alright yeah that'll be fun well also announce the winners in early January and it seems like everyone is getting into the spirit of the holiday season contest notwithstanding of course with a couple of weeks ago a group of 22 players came together with what they called Yuletide on yellow just be a song that should be yeah the old additive formation add to form a huge Christmas

3. 00:01:43

   tree a really cool and seasonably appropriate disappearance of Christmas if your Christmas of course and just trees now or trees yeah so as 2018 comes to a close and we finish up the first year of our corley release schedule we have a lot to look back on and be very proud of we certainly do let's check out some of those highlights the best part about 2018 is hands down of the emergent gameplay coming from the community all the videos the images everything on the community hub on top of over 30 in-game events and contests that we ran throughout the year yeah community this was an awesome year because just the opportunity to work with the team really deliver on on this vision was amazing the coolest thing that's come out of star citizen this year is probably gonna be hitting those quarterly releases and seeing that

4. 00:02:30

   constant flow of content getting into the players hands quicker last year we had to basically revisit and remake star citizen this year was more like okay we have this cool tech what could we do at it and how do we expand upon it novo has been challenging it's been or inspiring to work on and it's been at pick object container streaming killed us this [ __ ] improve the framerate massively and it just allows us to keep putting more and more content into the game something that we would hit the previous limit and now we can just keep going huge integral change to the way that the game is made in the way that we

5. 00:03:18

   create our systems it's really given as an accurate representation of how individual locations perform a very impressive technology every weapons is a tough one as I asking me to name the favorite child course Inca star system Wars the squadron 42 I left because I was amazing [Music] so many cool things going on all the time I remember when they happened under so that was cool that was cool that was cool this is constant so there's been

6. 00:04:07

   some specific stuff in each quarter that I was personally really excited about being able to decide what you want to look like in the verse via the character customizer something real important to me was point on the face over IP technology it adds a really fun way for the players to kind of interact with each other I think this year we probably put out the most ships that we've ever done I like the a would be absolutely citizens this is a common citizen come stuff this isn't Conn was really good

7. 00:04:55

   this year it was citizen cotton a hundred percent citizencon one word legendary says he caught that I made the mission that's pretty cool you need the mission I did make the mission who you who knew people you watch the last ITV I guess and the largest gathering of star citizen's ever assembled two different tracks main stage and secondary stage getting to hear from everybody if we get the life-size dragon fly the 3d printed crack in all I really liked the IFC s2 system a lot of cool tech that's coming

8. 00:05:45

   out from the other teams and I was really impressed with what they're doing that would be with the new handling system for the ships so it was just massive basically what we you know what we pulled off [Applause] it's around the verse our weekly development showcase hit 200 episodes this year and of course there's no substitute for seeing Chris and Sandi week in and week out maybe Shawn Tracy and steve bender might say otherwise oh hello i was just celebrating my christmas fear do you have some questions for me I see sorry mining in the prospector that was a huge

9. 00:06:35

   gameplay loop that was finally added people really got on board with getting in there prospectors and think it was a really nice for people to interact with the planet I honestly had that I don't do a lot of mining on the beyond this year because it's a bit complicated for me I'm more of a sightseer I think what made this year awesome is it tends to be what makes every year awesome it's EIG is that we are constantly improving the way that we've scaled up the amount of content there is and the speed at which we've been able to scale that content up for me that that points towards much better progress and that was only gonna get quicker as we get further along we have a whole new world of things that we could bring bigger more awesome maps and everything can't wait there are so many people that you guys never get to see and today I want to think so thank you for making this the best year of the

10. 00:07:26
