  Well, last episode I called in and you know, as I tried to help
• 0:06
  the view count. I always play the YouTube.
• 0:12
  I I watch the whole YouTube every week when when jar jar
• 0:17
  puts it out and to be fair I only listen to my part.
• 0:22
  No, we know. Did I mute the rest?
• 0:24
  You get it. Yeah, but while I was listening
• 0:27
  to my part at 36 minutes or or thereabouts, in the background
• 0:32
  you can clearly hear somebody flush in the toilet.
• 0:35
  I heard it. I didn't say anything, but I
• 0:37
  heard it. You heard it live.
• 0:39
  Yeah. You didn't say anything.
• 0:41
  No, I didn't actually know who it was, but I heard it.
• 0:46
  That's to let those kind of things slut.
• 0:48
  Unbelievable. The thing is though, Natalie,
• 0:57
  you say that I can't see it. You're absolutely right.
• 0:59
  After we're claiming, let's let's talk about that first.
• 1:01
  Because I was going. To go in a totally different
• 1:03
  direction. You can make as much money as
• 1:05
  you need and work your way towards any ship in the game.
• 1:08
  They they were trying to cash in off of that nostalgia and that
• 1:12
  hype. It's Wednesday.
• 1:18
  You know what that means, baby? Oh, you can do the spoiler tab.
• 1:24
  I want to announce you and then you.
• 1:25
  Yeah. And then you said your.
• 1:26
  You said your words. Oh, what?
• 1:28
  I'm here. All right, well, we can rewind
• 1:32
  it. Yeah, I didn't have anything
• 1:36
  planned anyway, but Opencoms Radio, your Star Citizen call in
• 1:42
  show meets every Wednesday. We've already got a couple of
• 1:46
  folks down there in the waiting room, but today is a very, very,
• 1:49
  very special, much anticipated episode of Open Comms Radio.
• 1:54
  It's not because of our question of the week we'll get to.
• 1:58
  It's not because we're lucky there was no patch tonight,
• 2:01
  because if there were patch we probably wouldn't have any
• 2:03
  guests. It is because my Co host tabs
• 2:08
  back with us. Hey, it's fun.
• 2:11
  Been busy man. Been really, really busy.
• 2:14
  I know it's been a while since we caught up.
• 2:16
  Oh, yeah, Yeah. What you you come away with some
• 2:20
  winnings there. I heard you were putting some
• 2:22
  Peaches. Peach pies, Peach Cobblers.
• 2:26
  So there all right, just to address the vacant competition,
• 2:28
  there's something lost in translation there because it was
• 2:32
  totally like I've baked for this competition, like and that is
• 2:38
  there was a cut. The one of the things I was
• 2:40
  trying to do was this Punisher does this animation competition
• 2:43
  where he puts it all in slides and it's a really cool.
• 2:47
  It's a bunch of, you know, series of takes, but that was
• 2:51
  getting an unreal was taking all my time.
• 2:53
  But letting you run with a baking competition is that's
• 2:58
  that works too. That works too.
• 3:01
  I, you know, didn't want to own up to the other part, so.
• 3:05
  That's you're angry. That's awesome translation.
• 3:09
  You can write your letters to tav@insertmedia.com.
• 3:15
  Yeah, but do send your recipes, yeah.
• 3:18
  Do regardless do send your recipes.
• 3:21
  Can you bake? I can still bake.
• 3:23
  Yeah, yeah. I'm, I'm 15 years back at the
• 3:26
  house. I can I can bake.
• 3:28
  I knew this about you, and I didn't know how many other
• 3:30
  people knew it about you. But no, absolutely nobody
• 3:34
  questioned when I said havoc and bacon competition.
• 3:39
  Yeah, that's, it's still pretty unusual for me, but that's
• 3:43
  funny. That's hilarious.
• 3:44
  Don't give it. To be a lesson to everybody.
• 3:46
  Yeah, Don't believe everything you hear on the Internet, folks.
• 3:50
  You know anyone, anyone with $80 can do this.
• 3:53
  So. Yeah, there you go.
• 3:57
  So yeah, did that and the OR tried to do that, learned a lot
• 4:02
  and then Dragon Con and then trying to build these two other
• 4:07
  games and yeah man, it's just I feel like Spider Man on the
• 4:11
  train being pulled in every direction.
• 4:13
  You know it's. So you've been a busy a busy boy
• 4:17
  is a is a derogatory if I call you a boy?
• 4:19
  No man, I can handle it. I can.
• 4:22
  Handle it. OK, busy boy.
• 4:26
  You're going to be joining us every every week now.
• 4:28
  Well, and even that's the thing, even with Star Citizen, it's
• 4:33
  been, you know, I know I mentioned to you that my mouse
• 4:36
  hovered over that dreaded uninstall for a second just
• 4:38
  because I did the last set of missions, and those were fun,
• 4:43
  but I had my problems with them. You all covered most of it on
• 4:47
  the show. You talking about the ASD
• 4:49
  facilities? Yes.
• 4:52
  You covered a lot of that on the show.
• 4:54
  I was just kind of, you know, even my better half was just
• 4:57
  going, why are we out here? And then going back in just
• 5:01
  seems like a unnecessary bit of time anyway.
• 5:07
  But those were kind of cool and I just wanted more.
• 5:09
  I don't know, I guess it's sold a little bit to be a little bit
• 5:12
  more. And that was kind of a yeah.
• 5:16
  Anyway, you take that and you try to harness it and you're
• 5:19
  like, I'm just going to go out and try and play and build
• 5:22
  things myself. So that's where it kind of all
• 5:25
  came from. Frustration.
• 5:28
  That's what it was. So as far as coming back, I'm
• 5:31
  I'm happy to help Co host. I just don't know if I could be
• 5:35
  listening to these other episodes.
• 5:37
  Oh, the show is far better informed.
• 5:40
  It's just so. I am the most casual Star
• 5:44
  Citizen player. Like you understand.
• 5:47
  It I'm just so casual. Here's the thing.
• 5:49
  This is the We're on the Internet, We're on YouTube, OK?
• 5:52
  We're not informing anybody of anything.
• 5:55
  No, you're not. This is something you're gonna
• 5:57
  have something worth saying, right?
• 5:58
  We're on the Spotify, you know what I'm saying?
• 6:01
  Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
• 6:02
  And now conveniently chaptered. I saw that.
• 6:04
  Yeah, pretty cool. Oh, you saw the AI chapters?
• 6:07
  Yeah, Spotify put some AI chapter markers in.
• 6:10
  I didn't write those. And they were, they were
• 6:13
  interesting. I always feel like my chapter
• 6:16
  markers I spent so much time thinking about like I spend an
• 6:20
  hour every morning and like I go through it or every once a week
• 6:23
  and I go through it and I put on these, you know, sometimes what
• 6:26
  I think are just spot on, maybe trying to be clever.
• 6:30
  And then you upload it to Spotify and and they have some
• 6:34
  new AI and it just, it just automatically does its own and I
• 6:38
  can't figure out how to turn it off took.
• 6:39
  You forever and then just yeah. Yeah.
• 6:45
  So Tav, what I'm hearing from you is you're going to be here
• 6:47
  sometimes. I'm here, but I'm going to be
• 6:49
  here, but I want to more in the background.
• 6:52
  I'll, you know, I want to help, you know, obviously help the
• 6:54
  show and if and if you need and in a desperate spot, you need a
• 6:59
  need a guest host and I'm happy to come in.
• 7:01
  I just, I'm just not playing. I picked up No Man's Sky and was
• 7:08
  floored by it. Don't get me wrong, there's a
• 7:11
  lot of things that Star Citizen does that No Man's Sky doesn't
• 7:14
  do at all and vice versa. But for a person that really is
• 7:18
  into base building and exploration, oh, it's a long
• 7:22
  week getting that from Star Season, it feels like at the
• 7:24
  moment. And what an itch scratched and
• 7:28
  No Man's Sky and yeah. I was very.
• 7:31
  Impressed. Yeah.
• 7:32
  No DLC? No, it's just all.
• 7:36
  Yeah, I was very impressed. Yeah, it's just all there.
• 7:39
  Well, I don't know if you've heard, but the Apollo Medevac
• 7:43
  has windows now, so skylight. Let's we should definitely talk
• 7:49
  about the I saw watched the video, watched a couple people
• 7:52
  walk through it. Yeah, Windows.
• 7:56
  Cool to see a skylight. A little skylight Duke later on
• 7:59
  and I think it was our second episode, maybe our first
• 8:01
  episode, Duke came on and he was like, where?
• 8:05
  Why can't I see space from my spaceship in my space game?
• 8:10
  Yeah. No, it is.
• 8:12
  It still has that that RSI strut at the front of the and it's
• 8:17
  off. It's just not centered, which
• 8:18
  makes it kind of like. Yeah, I can't stand that.
• 8:20
  I could is. That over that maybe, or it
• 8:23
  would just bother me, I don't know.
• 8:24
  I. Get it?
• 8:25
  No, it's just like a, it's just like an individual thing.
• 8:27
  Like if I'm not centered in my in my ship, I'm like it's.
• 8:31
  Just a mediate. OCD kicks in, Yeah.
• 8:33
  And people go like, what, centered in your car?
• 8:37
  And I'm like, yeah, I'm bothered everyday.
• 8:41
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you're probably still.
• 8:44
  Yeah, that's interesting. Yeah.
• 8:47
  But yeah, I think I'd like to hear what other people think
• 8:49
  about it. I knew it was a real, a lot of
• 8:52
  people pledged for it back then, kind of in a real, you know,
• 8:55
  special spot for that medic gameplay loop.
• 8:58
  So yeah, I think the Idris loses the tier, you know, it just got
• 9:02
  downscaled, right? So now there's a real use for
• 9:05
  the shipping game so. Yeah, well, last episode we did
• 9:09
  a little poll and we had like about the Med beds and and
• 9:13
  Respawn in particular. And I'm still in the camp that
• 9:15
  only tier one beds should respawn.
• 9:17
  What? What did you vote?
• 9:19
  I think, yeah, that. Tier one.
• 9:21
  Only Tier 1. Yeah, I mean that that makes
• 9:24
  sense. Everyone else is just wrong.
• 9:25
  But like, I guess we have to lobby them or something.
• 9:27
  I don't know. Gotta convince.
• 9:31
  But Sig Sig has left a lot of wounds, a lot of open wounds
• 9:35
  open on the table. And with this new patch coming
• 9:37
  up, this is kind of the medical gameplay patch Part 2.
• 9:41
  You could call this the medical gameplay patch.
• 9:44
  So we're just wondering with this new patch 4.1.3 or is it
• 9:48
  4.2? What's coming up?
• 9:51
  3/1. Well, three.
• 9:55
  One. No.
• 9:56
  Well, the question is, is will CIG heal our wounds?
• 10:04
  I got the. First caller here.
• 10:06
  Let's just yeah, let's dive in. Let's dive into him.
• 10:10
  Drake, you, you know this gentleman.
• 10:11
  You could introduce him if you like.
• 10:15
  There's your cosmic Cobo. Hello, it's good to have you
• 10:21
  back. Hey, thanks.
• 10:23
  Good to see you too. Yeah, question.
• 10:27
  I guess we'll just go right into the question, your thoughts on
• 10:30
  can CIG heal the wounds? I wish if I could regen in real
• 10:38
  life it would solve a lot of my problems right now.
• 10:46
  Is it I? Can't even go down that road,
• 10:48
  that's too controversial. I'm just thinking about if
• 10:52
  everyone could regen all the time.
• 10:54
  And it brings up a deeper question.
• 10:57
  Oh yeah. What is its soul?
• 11:00
  Oh, that's where you were going with it?
• 11:02
  I mean, it, it, it's, it's an inevitable question considering
• 11:06
  how regen technology works, but yeah.
• 11:09
  And why not just regen you as a baby?
• 11:12
  Because you got to get an M Well, I.
• 11:15
  Guess I'll open myself for 25 when I was in my peak physical
• 11:20
  form of. Course.
• 11:22
  And then I'll just keep coming back to that.
• 11:25
  It's like a safe point. Yeah, yeah.
• 11:29
  But like how does your, how does your memory come back to that?
• 11:32
  Like how does that, how does that work?
• 11:35
  Like I could get if there's like some sort of a bracket when the
• 11:39
  imprint is valid for your current self, Like I think
• 11:43
  that's technically how it works right now at the end.
• 11:47
  Or of course is that you have an imprint and it's valid for a
• 11:53
  certain amount of time and then you become like D synced from
• 11:58
  that after a certain amount of time like that.
• 12:01
  That's lore wise I believe, how it works and how they're
• 12:04
  actually planning to do imprints going forward according to that
• 12:07
  medical guide. Wait, what's?
• 12:09
  What's that to do with your brain and your body?
• 12:11
  It yeah, like, so you're, you, your physical, OK, we're, we're
• 12:19
  we're already playing with science fiction logic here, but
• 12:23
  like your physical self is time bound by, I don't know, magic,
• 12:30
  quantum physics or whatever that it only syncs up with your saved
• 12:35
  self for a certain amount of time.
• 12:38
  And then you'd be deteriorates. The code yes.
• 12:42
  Yes, your your your pattern in the buffer, but.
• 12:47
  Can I just restate it like make a copy?
• 12:51
  I guess, oh, Oh, well, I mean, so there's a mission in the ASD
• 12:58
  facility that actually explains kind of what happens.
• 13:01
  When you. When you try to cheat a little
• 13:06
  bit, we'll say with with the system it.
• 13:12
  Wait, this is. This isn't a new patch.
• 13:14
  Yes. The third part, OK, we don't
• 13:16
  have to spoil it. I won't, but it's Rob took me
• 13:21
  there and it's it's a fun little area.
• 13:24
  It's a it's in the bio lab that hasn't seemingly been used so
• 13:29
  far in the game. That's good where all the
• 13:33
  copions are. Yeah, yeah.
• 13:38
  But it's good, it's got a audio log involved, and I don't want
• 13:43
  to call it an interesting mechanic, but an interesting
• 13:45
  enemy there. Oh, I think I know.
• 13:49
  I think I know who that is. Yeah.
• 13:51
  And we said that. We said that last episode.
• 13:54
  That there's a good we did. Yeah, 'cause we were talking
• 13:57
  about Nix and the Vandool. Oh no, yeah, that's that's the
• 14:02
  main quest. There's a second quest there
• 14:05
  that's is different it someone called it very Fallout esque.
• 14:13
  Are we getting, we're getting like a Mr. House?
• 14:16
  No, not yet, but I'm sure they're going to go down that
• 14:19
  path at some point because AI is, is is evil in the star
• 14:24
  assistant universe. That's everyone's super
• 14:27
  skeptical about it and it's just bound to be some big bad at some
• 14:33
  point in the future. We're going to get like
• 14:35
  replicators or Borg or some mechanical enemy at some point,
• 14:42
  I'm sure. That's where the Vandua running
• 14:45
  from the Vandua running away from the AI.
• 14:48
  Yeah, they're running away from the replicators for the Star
• 14:54
  Trek Stargate fans in the room or the.
• 14:58
  Or for. The Star Trek fans, yeah, yeah,
• 15:02
  Yep. It just happens like it's a
• 15:04
  cliche, but I I wouldn't blame them for having that be chapter
• 15:11
  two or three is enemy because the Vandal are going to get
• 15:15
  probably kind of old over a while.
• 15:21
  So then you played the new patch, you played with the
• 15:23
  medical improvements. A little bit, not much, but a
• 15:27
  little bit does. That have a canister.
• 15:29
  Is that the canister yet the the?
• 15:31
  Yes the Med gel I was hoping it'd be green like the stuff in
• 15:35
  the Med gun but it isn't blue containers.
• 15:39
  It's because it's not oxidized yet.
• 15:43
  Yes. So how is it?
• 15:45
  What? What do you think?
• 15:45
  What's your hot take? It's not that juicy of a patch,
• 15:49
  but I do like the Onyx facilities.
• 15:52
  The new stuff in the Onyx facilities, the new main mission
• 15:56
  is long like it's a combination pretty much of all the other
• 16:04
  missions. It's it'll take you to every
• 16:06
  different place in the facility and to 1 new area that I, if I
• 16:12
  had one big complaint, walk at 2 complaints about it.
• 16:15
  One is to get to this new area without any spoilers.
• 16:20
  You got to take a left at one point where there's like no
• 16:24
  signage or anything that implies you need to go that direction.
• 16:28
  You can easily miss it because you normally go right and go out
• 16:32
  one way and you take the elevator, but there's a left
• 16:35
  now, but there it's a dark hallway and then you go left
• 16:39
  through 1/2 broken door. It's just like there's like no
• 16:42
  indication that we need to go this way.
• 16:45
  It's very easy to miss it. And the other is, well, the
• 16:51
  finale could be more interesting, I'll say.
• 16:54
  I was expecting a more of a fight at the end I guess.
• 17:00
  But I guess they're also have more more to tease and more to
• 17:06
  release. Was this a Mass Effect Three?
• 17:10
  Pick a color. No, it's it's it's.
• 17:19
  Mechanically, is there more than one choice?
• 17:22
  Yes, actually. Well, supposedly I, I, I didn't
• 17:26
  go down the different. Supposedly there are multiple
• 17:29
  routes to go down. It's just a little confusing how
• 17:35
  to do that and what that means and it's not explained.
• 17:40
  Interesting. Yeah.
• 17:42
  And you get supposedly again, I 'cause I didn't, we only did, I
• 17:46
  did this with like Rob and I think Pluto and sweet.
• 17:53
  I think it was us. We know it was probably just
• 17:56
  sweet Murphy and I don't think Murphy's sweet.
• 17:59
  Rob and I, we, we only did it like once.
• 18:03
  And supposedly there's different rewards for doing these
• 18:09
  different ways of doing the mission.
• 18:13
  That's I probably could have worded that better, but there
• 18:17
  are multiple endings with multiple different rewards.
• 18:20
  And I'm not entirely sure what the rewards are, but there's
• 18:25
  different lore for doing it in different ways.
• 18:28
  It's a little like I said, not clear, but supposedly,
• 18:34
  supposedly we've got branching endings or at least branching
• 18:38
  conclusions for this. Well, that's cool.
• 18:44
  OK, I'm. Trying to make it longer.
• 18:46
  Yeah, anything. For that.
• 18:49
  Yes, yeah. And and, and this this big
• 18:52
  mission that they're giving us and, and there's I think there's
• 18:55
  a there's some side missions too that I haven't really looked at.
• 19:00
  We've been doing just like the investigation missions because
• 19:02
  that's like the main quote story, but there's some side
• 19:09
  stuff too that I didn't we've I've not dug into.
• 19:12
  They'll take you to Onyx facilities, but they're not
• 19:15
  necessarily the reason to go there.
• 19:19
  But this main one, this, this one's big.
• 19:21
  It's got multiple steps, like I said, takes to mold part of the
• 19:24
  facilities. It's big, it's chunky, and it's
• 19:27
  worth it. I'm feeling like a lot of people
• 19:31
  may be regretting their previous vote.
• 19:33
  If you remember, we had a vote like a survey and it was like,
• 19:37
  what kind of gameplay do you like the most?
• 19:38
  And I think overwhelmingly people said they wanted more
• 19:40
  like story based stuff. And I mean, I did too.
• 19:46
  I voted that pretty high. We did it on the show.
• 19:48
  But it feels like maybe that was the wrong decision for an MMO
• 19:54
  because you're I'm realizing there's not a lot of
• 19:57
  replayability here. Like how many times are you
• 20:00
  going to put the same mission in a single player game?
• 20:04
  Yeah, it's a good point. It's, you know, more sandbox,
• 20:09
  the better the sandbox mechanic, the better it works.
• 20:13
  We do. I, I don't know, and this
• 20:15
  probably do you. What do we think is just going
• 20:17
  to change the new as far as larger battles?
• 20:21
  I mean, are we going to see presumably a medevac everywhere
• 20:25
  now? You know, maybe, maybe our next,
• 20:31
  we'll give our to our next caller.
• 20:33
  We'll let him answer that one. Our next caller, someone we
• 20:36
  know, someone we love, someone who's hanging out with us all
• 20:42
  the time. It is Lord Anubis.
• 20:44
  Welcome. Back to the show.
• 20:47
  Oh, hello. Lord Anubis, will CIG heal our
• 20:53
  wounds? Just you know, CIG is like
• 20:58
  family and family does heal. Family also sometimes keeps
• 21:04
  hurting you over and over and over again and then tries to
• 21:07
  heal and then hurts you. It hurts, it hurts you.
• 21:09
  So did I? Did I have my?
• 21:10
  Conversation with my dad today. Is that what your voice is?
• 21:14
  Oh, nice. Let's start.
• 21:15
  Wow. All right.
• 21:16
  Well, Oh my God. I don't know.
• 21:17
  We're going to talk about that. Why?
• 21:19
  I'm sorry, you know, charges by the hour.
• 21:21
  Did I but. Yeah, you know, again, you know,
• 21:32
  the the Onyx is very nice and and, and I'm glad that, you
• 21:36
  know, you did bring up the the point that I that I think is the
• 21:40
  overriding issue with Star Citizen right now is it is an
• 21:46
  amusement park and it needs to be an MMO.
• 21:52
  It's not something you live in. It's something you go on rides
• 21:54
  in. And I don't know if they do want
• 21:59
  to heal that. I think that they think that
• 22:01
  that's, that that's, you know, giving you what you want, the
• 22:05
  experience that you want. I think that that they they go,
• 22:08
  Oh, well, we, we want to create stories and narratives and all
• 22:11
  these things, but they don't have like a world to live in in
• 22:15
  between those. And I, and I think that they're
• 22:17
  not seeing that, at least not, not if not if they're making,
• 22:22
  you know, everything but a system to do that their top
• 22:26
  priority. Yeah, I think, I think that's
• 22:30
  accurate as far as like it is a lot, it feels like a lot of
• 22:33
  rides and I never, any time I'm asking other people to play more
• 22:36
  often than me, it's kind of like, well, what's the ride that
• 22:38
  you enjoy doing the most right now?
• 22:40
  Like that's that's almost like always the question.
• 22:45
  And we have the potential here. I mean, you know, getting the
• 22:48
  new loot is cool, whatever, you know, maybe that loot, the more
• 22:53
  you wear it, the more you wear it out.
• 22:54
  I would love that I'll a certain game that I reference all the
• 22:57
  time, you know, gives you an incentive to go get another one.
• 23:00
  But there are no crafters. There's nothing else.
• 23:02
  There's nothing driven except if you want to look cool, go on
• 23:06
  this ride. If you want this cool ship, go
• 23:07
  on this ride. And you know, I don't know if,
• 23:15
  if, if that's going to change in the next two years at least.
• 23:20
  It does. I think there's just certain
• 23:22
  things I think to make it feel lived in.
• 23:24
  I mean the the addition of fauna helps, but the fauna itself
• 23:28
  doesn't really. I haven't had any attack me
• 23:31
  outside of what is the Copion's. So it's just a little bit more
• 23:35
  variety. Ships, maybe ships, AI ships,
• 23:38
  flight pass that. I feel like that was talked
• 23:40
  about. We had planetary navigation on a
• 23:42
  card. Yikes.
• 23:44
  I don't want to say a couple years ago, maybe it was three
• 23:47
  years ago. Y'all remember this?
• 23:48
  I don't want to be. Talking about, yeah.
• 23:51
  That is that still a thing? Is is y'all are aware of?
• 23:55
  Has it been brought up recently as I guess a better question?
• 23:58
  Not, not ever since. And that, that's the thing.
• 24:01
  They talk about Maelstrom all the time.
• 24:03
  Wait wait, wait. Sorry, what was the I got
• 24:07
  distracted. The question was have they
• 24:10
  brought up? Have they brought up planetary
• 24:12
  navigation for AI recently? They brought up FPS navigation
• 24:17
  for AI, but by planetary navigation you mean like AI
• 24:20
  going from what we can do ground to to to space to another planet
• 24:25
  kind of thing? Yeah, already kind of even on
• 24:28
  the planet, something, you know, you're hitting a bunker and a
• 24:32
  crew gets to, you know, launched from any kind of ship in the
• 24:37
  air, I guess would be the I. Remember the reinforcements?
• 24:40
  Yes, but I think you're referencing the eye of God, that
• 24:43
  they were talking about their super system that would create a
• 24:48
  living environment of AIS that would make deliveries at this
• 24:55
  place, make pickups at that place, and show up at different
• 24:58
  places and different random things.
• 24:59
  And then they would go along their routes and stuff like that
• 25:02
  across the verse. Yeah, I know they had some with
• 25:06
  quantum, which I guess was the back end that was supposed to be
• 25:09
  the simulated economy. And that with the idea with the
• 25:12
  quantum is that they could, if you were in the instance, they
• 25:15
  wouldn't have to materialize what the entity was.
• 25:18
  It was only if you come across it, which kind of makes sense.
• 25:20
  You just stream it in. I don't know whatever happened
• 25:24
  with that. And it seemed like there was
• 25:25
  the, you know, these long conversations about it and that
• 25:29
  that to me would help it feel lived in.
• 25:31
  That would give it some, oh, this is a more of a breathing
• 25:34
  universe. I mean, thankfully we have
• 25:36
  higher player counts. So there's a lot of other ships
• 25:38
  player ships to see, but. Their top priority should have
• 25:42
  been that. Honestly, that is the core bread
• 25:45
  and butter of a living MMO is that there is a living MMO that
• 25:51
  that there that that you're not just there to be there in that
• 25:54
  world, but you're there to live in that world.
• 25:57
  You know, the fact that it's been on the back burner and they
• 25:59
  keep talking about like maelstrom and and and and
• 26:04
  weather and stuff like that, instead of like, Hey, let let us
• 26:07
  continue to show you how we're going to create a world that you
• 26:11
  know you can make your. Way.
• 26:12
  In base building, they have focused a lot on that.
• 26:17
  That would add a lot. I mean, it's always, I mean,
• 26:20
  that's my favorite part in No Man's Sky right now is.
• 26:23
  Yeah, it's doing that. Yeah.
• 26:25
  But even then, you know, you venture out, there's always
• 26:27
  something to find that's new. I had a pirates come and attack
• 26:31
  this random observatory I visited.
• 26:32
  It was just, there's stuff happening.
• 26:36
  Yeah. And I guess that's the stuff
• 26:38
  just needs to. Happen.
• 26:40
  Yeah. No Man's Sky, actually, like
• 26:43
  even years ago when I would play, it felt alive.
• 26:47
  Even though it's all NPCS you know there, there's ships coming
• 26:50
  and going. You go to some random outpost
• 26:53
  and there's like people just arriving, you know, and they're
• 26:56
  just like doing their thing and taking off.
• 26:58
  Like I think, you know, Elite Dangerous does the same thing.
• 27:03
  And the fact that Star Citizen doesn't do it.
• 27:05
  And Star Citizen, which you know by all means is the most
• 27:10
  expansive if you look at the experience and the and the most
• 27:15
  realistic if you look at the experience for them not to do
• 27:18
  the same thing that has been conquered by games for over a
• 27:21
  decade. Well, they would tell you Benoit
• 27:27
  would get on SCL and tell you that it's locked behind some
• 27:31
  kind of tech, which would give you the the feeling like it's
• 27:36
  already done and that feature is waiting for some technical
• 27:41
  improvement. I think, I think we're at the
• 27:44
  point out like that's not the case at all.
• 27:45
  They haven't worked on it. They're still working on Mark
• 27:47
  Hamill's biceps or whatever. They're, yeah, it's locked
• 27:51
  behind some tech, as in it's on the list of things that we need
• 27:55
  to code that we haven't coded yet, and there's other things
• 27:58
  that we need to code before that.
• 28:02
  Yeah, it's frustrating. It is, yeah.
• 28:06
  I mean, I yeah, no, no right words for how they can
• 28:11
  something's lost in translation when they do even the
• 28:13
  narratives, the story stuff that they are doing.
• 28:15
  Me as a casual player, if if I don't watch the ISC like and if
• 28:21
  I don't, it's just the story gets a little, there's something
• 28:26
  in translation where it's just not, it's not coming across as
• 28:31
  strongly as I think they they want it to.
• 28:35
  You're dependent upon their people Smaller.
• 28:37
  Because of it. I don't think it's dependent on
• 28:40
  the social media. It's being dependent on just, I
• 28:43
  don't know, being engaged. And that's that is a problem
• 28:47
  actually for those that don't stay strongly engaged is that
• 28:52
  they do miss whatever they're trying to do for the overall
• 28:57
  start. Like the region crisis there,
• 28:59
  that's not incorporated in the game as much as.
• 29:03
  They like it was a tab in the in the what do you call it in the
• 29:06
  journal or whatever the thing that nobody looks at.
• 29:08
  So it's like there's, there's there wasn't even like a a pop
• 29:11
  up. There wasn't any like world,
• 29:14
  right? Tab and that's that's that's
• 29:17
  such a how for an average player, it's harder.
• 29:21
  Yeah. And like, they made that
• 29:24
  newscast, that Jared newscast and then it like was in a
• 29:29
  handful of landing zones and then broke and then they never
• 29:32
  bothered to actually. Right.
• 29:34
  Use it again. Yeah, I saw it.
• 29:37
  I saw it on. I never saw it.
• 29:40
  That's such a. Good idea is just to have some
• 29:43
  sort of atmosphere radio, some sort of Star Citizen in game
• 29:47
  radio. That you can.
• 29:49
  Turn to and give you like, oh, here I am traveling quantum is
• 29:53
  it takes a while. Let me just TuneIn to see what's
• 29:57
  going on in. Do you know what game does this?
• 30:01
  Elite Dangerous does that perfectly.
• 30:03
  It's one of the perfect features.
• 30:04
  You're you're taking a long time to get there.
• 30:06
  It's like it's right to your left on one of the monitors.
• 30:09
  You just turn on the radio and that's how they, you know, spit
• 30:13
  the narrative at you. And it works because you have
• 30:16
  the time anyway. And then maybe you get like a a
• 30:18
  notification that says like NEWS UPDATE, that's all, that's all
• 30:22
  you need to do. And you can still have it in the
• 30:25
  mobi glass. Yeah, we have these mobi
• 30:27
  glasses. They just need to talk to us.
• 30:31
  Yeah. And then when you exit the Moby
• 30:33
  Glass, it continues to play. Yes.
• 30:37
  Yes, you need to pay for plus for that, for for for Moby Glass
• 30:42
  plus for that. Though I'm gonna.
• 30:43
  I'm gonna. Kick you out of the show?
• 30:47
  You're not. If we've been saying that, no,
• 30:51
  we don't need to put ideas in their head.
• 30:54
  You actually have to be a subscriber to do that.
• 30:58
  Oh my gosh. All right, well, I think this is
• 31:01
  a this is a good time to bring on our next guest, Lord, and
• 31:04
  I'll, I'll let you say a final word.
• 31:07
  Will CIG heal our wounds? It's complicated.
• 31:16
  OK, I'm glad I gave you the final word on that.
• 31:19
  All right. Next.
• 31:20
  Next guest. Welcome to Opencoms Radio.
• 31:24
  You're a Star Citizen call and show.
• 31:26
  You're on a very, very special day to have us back from the
• 31:28
  Bake Off and our question this week we'll CIG heal our wounds.
• 31:34
  Citizens welcome Long. Time, listener, occasional
• 31:38
  caller. Welcome back to HAVE and I'll
• 31:44
  get to the answering the I'll I'll answer the question in a
• 31:47
  moment. But first of all, let's address
• 31:49
  address the big fat Angel food cake elephant in the room that
• 31:55
  you were not at some kind of baking competition or television
• 31:58
  show. I am so damn disappointed you
• 32:00
  don't know. Yeah.
• 32:03
  I should have just ran with. It I, I, I have been waiting all
• 32:07
  week and I'm not kidding you. This, I'm this is not hyperbole.
• 32:10
  This is not me making like I've been waiting all week.
• 32:13
  I thought we were going to talk about how you were on The Great
• 32:17
  American Bake Off on Bravo and you got somehow became a
• 32:21
  freaking finalist and then you had some kind of sourdough
• 32:24
  disaster. That's why you're back.
• 32:26
  That's what I thought. Well.
• 32:27
  That would have I should have ran with that.
• 32:29
  I just the second you asked me like what cake did you make,
• 32:33
  bake or whatever, I'd be like, I would have just froze.
• 32:38
  I. Before we get to anything else,
• 32:40
  I have to say I've been trying to be to.
• 32:43
  I'm on and off again. Right now I'm in an off cycle
• 32:46
  because I've been so disappointed.
• 32:48
  I've been trying to master sourdough.
• 32:50
  OK, I have spent probably over a grand on accoutrement to make.
• 32:56
  Sourdough bread. Commitment.
• 32:58
  I've spent probably more money on sourdough shit than I have in
• 33:03
  Star Citizen and I was so ready to ask to pick your brain about
• 33:09
  sourdough and knowledge so you have no idea how disappointed.
• 33:15
  You Would you say you're feeling sour?
• 33:18
  Pretty much very good though. But very good.
• 33:21
  That's hilarious. Well, he's still baked.
• 33:25
  He's still a good Baker. He may.
• 33:27
  We'll talk. I'll I'll I'll still talk to you
• 33:30
  and after show you know I don't want I'm.
• 33:32
  Curious. Yeah.
• 33:33
  Cuz that's yeah. It's definitely a labor of love
• 33:37
  and worth doing for sure. Oh for sure.
• 33:39
  Sandwiches like that. Yeah, I mean, I've had some
• 33:41
  great success, but I've had so many failures it's not even
• 33:44
  funny. And I, I, I anyway, we'll talk
• 33:48
  after after show now to get to the question.
• 33:52
  Of course, they won't heal us, not for free.
• 33:56
  You know, it'll cost you, it'll cost you something, probably
• 34:01
  time, sweat and probably a lot of money.
• 34:04
  But I have no hope for this company right now at all.
• 34:08
  I'm looking at the funding dashboard.
• 34:10
  They're up so far ahead of last year.
• 34:12
  It's ridiculous. I mean the even the amount of
• 34:15
  new citizens, everything keeps growing.
• 34:18
  Why? I have no idea.
• 34:21
  I've been listening well. Yeah, that's more than you can
• 34:25
  say for the last like 8 years of developments.
• 34:30
  Yeah. That's true.
• 34:31
  It's just, it's just I don't for me right now, I'm like totally
• 34:35
  not playing almost. No, I'm not playing any games
• 34:38
  right now. Everything just is.
• 34:39
  You're baking. So damn.
• 34:40
  Damn. I haven't.
• 34:41
  I'm not even baking. Everything is just kind of
• 34:44
  repetitive. It's just the same old, same old
• 34:45
  shit familiar grind. You know, it's just I'm, I'm in
• 34:50
  a stage right now where, you know, I'll have to have
• 34:53
  something to to to, to go me back into it and whine to, to
• 34:59
  jump on. But having said that, this whole
• 35:03
  MMO question and about this PVE content and stuff like that, I
• 35:08
  think it's I think every MMO needs some kind of structured
• 35:13
  questing. Yeah, that kind of stuff, bread
• 35:18
  crumbs, you know, that that that it lays for the player to to
• 35:22
  seek out a new area or to go here, to go there and to open up
• 35:25
  new vistas, you know. Of course.
• 35:28
  The the, the, the and and you have these theme park elements
• 35:33
  and almost in, in even super open sandbox games, you have a
• 35:37
  lot of those kind of elements. It's just a way to get you doing
• 35:40
  something. The big thing that Star Citizen
• 35:43
  as ammo is missing right now is some form of progression.
• 35:48
  That is the main driving force of every online type game where
• 35:54
  there's online, open world, even even closed world sandbox, not
• 35:59
  sandbox, theme park. The one thing they all have in
• 36:02
  common is that form of progression.
• 36:05
  And you know, some games it's skills, OK, you got to you got
• 36:09
  to skill up, you got to get experience points.
• 36:12
  Well, we don't have that. So, you know, you would think
• 36:16
  crafting would be a great form of progression.
• 36:18
  Maybe you get better at crafting the more you do it, or land
• 36:21
  ownership or exploration. You know, there's all, there's a
• 36:26
  lot of things that we could be doing as, as Star Citizens that
• 36:30
  it gives us a sense of progression and a reason to to
• 36:34
  play the game. To me, that's what's 1 of the
• 36:36
  big things that are missing right now.
• 36:38
  Yeah, it's all fine and good. OK, well, you go and play the
• 36:41
  new ASD or you play this new mission here or there.
• 36:46
  Like it's already been mentioned.
• 36:47
  You play at a time or two and you know, you're done with it.
• 36:50
  OK, well, dessert, you know, if they make it the game in such a
• 36:54
  way to where there's a reason to go back there to do something
• 36:58
  that's not mission driven, but maybe there's a resource there
• 37:01
  that you have to have to collect that, you know, gets infused
• 37:06
  into some other aspect of the game and everything kind of ties
• 37:08
  together. These are things hopeful the
• 37:11
  elements that will come together as as development gets closer
• 37:14
  and closer to finishing and gets closer to a more rounded
• 37:17
  experience that we don't have right now.
• 37:20
  We have a bunch of disc going at jointed parts.
• 37:23
  You know, it's you know, it's great.
• 37:24
  Yeah, it's wonderful. You can get into a ship, bigger
• 37:27
  ships, you can walk around, you know, you can invite your
• 37:30
  friends in. You can, you can, you know,
• 37:33
  seamlessly take off from one place, travel across the system,
• 37:37
  land at another, you know, go into the atmosphere.
• 37:39
  That's all fine and good. That's great.
• 37:41
  But you know, after you do it a couple of 1000 times, you know,
• 37:45
  it just becomes kind of background noise, right?
• 37:48
  Yeah, but I mean, that's that's the thing you're saying is that
• 37:51
  once you do it a couple 1000 times, but you're like, well, I
• 37:54
  don't know why there's so many more people well there because
• 37:58
  the game is playable and for $45 you can do that a couple 1000
• 38:02
  times and have fun. Yeah, I get that part of it, I
• 38:08
  truly do. But you know, in my mind, if
• 38:12
  there's ever going to, if, if the MMO Star Citizen is ever
• 38:16
  going to be successful and be long lasting as they they're
• 38:19
  trying to make it a lot of eye candy and a lot of this
• 38:22
  technology. It's great.
• 38:24
  It is, it's awesome. It it, it's very, you know,
• 38:27
  especially if you're brand new to the game and to the universe
• 38:30
  and that that Star Citizen inhabits.
• 38:32
  It's really fun. And and, you know, there's like
• 38:35
  a Gee whiz, oh, wow factor. But as time progresses, you got
• 38:41
  to have something there's, there has to be this driving force,
• 38:44
  this progression system. And I think this is the big deal
• 38:47
  that that we're really missing right now.
• 38:49
  And it's going to be hard, Yeah. Well, Speaking of progress, I
• 38:54
  have the progress progress tracker open, OK, And there are
• 38:57
  a few things on the progress tracker coming up. 1 supposedly
• 39:02
  finishing in the beginning, beginning of October is
• 39:04
  engineering OK? And they've been talking about
• 39:07
  that and they say they're going to get that in a, a test build
• 39:12
  for us. You know, they're saying before
• 39:15
  the end of the year. He said that.
• 39:17
  So if the progress tracker is true, we should expect something
• 39:20
  like that. The second thing is crafting is
• 39:25
  done in December, meaning we would maybe get a tech preview.
• 39:30
  No way. That's what it says.
• 39:32
  Crafting done mid-december. You also have command module
• 39:38
  done at the same time. And what a command module is, is
• 39:41
  introducing the concept of vehicles taking over control
• 39:45
  from other ships primarily used for spaceships, like the Drake
• 39:49
  Caterpillar. So that's the thing that
• 39:50
  detaches from the Caterpillar. The, the, you know, the command
• 39:55
  module. The same with the ironclad.
• 39:57
  Same with the ironclad that is also Drake exclusive.
• 40:01
  That's set to be done in the middle of December as well.
• 40:04
  So December you have crafting. Well, they have to have that
• 40:07
  because the ironclad's coming. Yeah.
• 40:10
  So the ironclad will be there probably for the end of the
• 40:13
  year. And then to have the one that
• 40:15
  you're looking forward to, base building, according to the
• 40:18
  progress tracker is done at the end of October.
• 40:22
  No. What is that?
• 40:26
  All estimates like they've said those.
• 40:28
  At a trick or treat. Yeah, but it's an estimate a
• 40:31
  month away. These are these are short term
• 40:33
  estimates. Oh well, I'll I'll.
• 40:34
  Put it this way, this is an estimate two days away right now
• 40:39
  because if if they put out this patch right now, it needs to be
• 40:45
  on the Evocati the next day or else they're pushing it as far
• 40:51
  as getting out. This patch needs to go.
• 40:53
  We need our next. It's going to be it's going to
• 40:56
  be small. It's it's got to be like,
• 40:58
  there's no way in like 20 days they can get out a big patch
• 41:01
  that has face building and crafting and or crafting.
• 41:07
  You mean you mean the November patch?
• 41:10
  Yeah, or the, well, the October patch.
• 41:15
  Well no, no, it's done at the end of October, not crafting.
• 41:18
  Crafting's done mid-december, but base building is done at the
• 41:23
  end of October, meaning it won't be in a patch until November
• 41:27
  December. Oh yeah, I know.
• 41:28
  What what? We're still going to get one
• 41:29
  more patch before Citizen Khan and it will be a small one, but
• 41:32
  after that, OK, that's still going to be a pretty quick turn
• 41:38
  around for something as major as that.
• 41:43
  Yeah. I mean and you know two weeks
• 41:45
  we're in Q4 like you tell me one quarter they're going to bring
• 41:49
  these major with. We haven't seen any, I haven't.
• 41:54
  I guess there was that one video that showed but was that Star
• 41:56
  Citizen to the base building. We haven't seen anything since
• 41:59
  yet. Or Citizen Con I mean.
• 42:01
  It was. It was Citizen Con.
• 42:03
  I mean, two years ago, 20. 20 No.
• 42:06
  In LA. There was one last year.
• 42:10
  Well, look, there's also some other.
• 42:11
  Things look, I'm just. I'm just going to pop out a few
• 42:15
  other things from Progress Tracker beginning of October.
• 42:18
  A redacted creature? OK.
• 42:21
  Oh, we've seen that already. It's an Elites.
• 42:24
  Oh, that's the big snaky thing. Yeah, snake, reptile, crocodile
• 42:28
  thing. This one, this one.
• 42:30
  OK, get ready for the gasps. Done.
• 42:35
  It looks early October Inventory rework, no?
• 42:43
  We, we, we I. I think it's possible.
• 42:47
  We've already seen the mock ups for it at least, so I don't
• 42:50
  know, maybe. OK, this, this, this, this,
• 42:54
  this. Look, look, they don't need to
• 43:00
  do a whole rework. They need to fix the fact that
• 43:03
  they can't like keep track of things and if this is a rework
• 43:07
  it better be functional or else it isn't anything at all.
• 43:11
  Yeah, yeah. If it if it's cosmetic, it could
• 43:14
  just go like just they could just go screw themselves because
• 43:16
  they. Honestly the biggest problem
• 43:19
  with with this game is the persistent game where everything
• 43:23
  disappears, including your ships.
• 43:26
  Yes, they address that in the sources and live like they know.
• 43:32
  Well, didn't fix it, but they won't.
• 43:35
  Knowing is half the battle, but have they done anything about?
• 43:38
  It bro, I want them to delete my ships That fucking Hercules you
• 43:41
  bought me Wicket. I can't stand that thing.
• 43:43
  I want to get rid of this so bad.
• 43:44
  What Wiki and 38 million? It's just the hangar's too big
• 43:50
  it. Wasn't 38 million, it was
• 43:52
  19,000,000, wasn't it? No, it was like 38 million.
• 43:57
  So the 18. Two No.
• 44:01
  Maybe it wasn't like, oh. It was only 19 or 18,000,000.
• 44:05
  Don't. Don't make it bigger than it.
• 44:06
  Was I I wanted if it was the. Game to the is is garbage,
• 44:10
  you're right. Well, Speaking of garbage, our
• 44:14
  next guest, Oh my, we're going to pull him up here.
• 44:17
  He's. The boss it'll.
• 44:18
  Cover transition. Wow.
• 44:21
  Hey, hold on. Let me do the let me do the
• 44:23
  thing guys. We got people listening on the
• 44:25
  Spotify. If you're on the Spotify you
• 44:28
  can. Follow us.
• 44:30
  We. Have, hey, we have an average of
• 44:34
  19 listeners on the Spotify and if you're on the YouTube, you
• 44:38
  can give us a little like a little subscribe TuneIn to us.
• 44:41
  We're here every week. You can also join us in our
• 44:45
  discord. You can find all the links on
• 44:46
  all of our pages, including the one that you're listening to
• 44:48
  from right now. But with no further ado on Open
• 44:53
  Comms Radio, we're going to bring up Murphy Jack.
• 44:57
  Murphy Jack, welcome to Open Comms Radio, your Star Citizen
• 45:00
  call in show. Murphy, Jack, Is CIG going to
• 45:06
  heal our wounds? Oh, I hope they heal that wound
• 45:10
  you just opened right now. So Jesus.
• 45:14
  With the garbage. Thing, man.
• 45:17
  Down oh garbage thing. Oh, never mind.
• 45:21
  Oh yeah. What are you talking about?
• 45:26
  We'll have to. We'll talk about later.
• 45:29
  OK. So would they are they going to
• 45:33
  heal? All right, The Apollo like
• 45:35
  that's the right. That's kind of the new hotness.
• 45:39
  Does anybody here feel like in the next update when they
• 45:44
  release it, does anybody feel like it's going to be worth
• 45:48
  having it there all the time like having a dedicated Apollo
• 45:53
  pilot? I'd say so.
• 45:55
  For Pve stuff, it's got cargo storage, for loot, it's got the
• 46:00
  Med beds. As long as we're not going up
• 46:02
  against, you know, players and then it's, yeah.
• 46:09
  Is that going? To have a spawning bed, will you
• 46:11
  be able to spawn on that? Yes, yeah.
• 46:13
  Yeah, you can still probably be a target.
• 46:15
  All of them. You can still spot on tier 3
• 46:18
  through one. Yeah, it's just the distances.
• 46:21
  But so you do we think the Apollo will be used versus well,
• 46:29
  it's like you're Connie with a nurse in it.
• 46:35
  I think it's got more flexibility and yeah, I think so
• 46:40
  that Metajo usage is going to be a new factor we're really going
• 46:43
  to have to think about because of smaller vehicles and ships
• 46:46
  aren't going to be able to hold as much.
• 46:49
  That is, that's the big thing is I'm wondering, I've talked about
• 46:53
  it quite a few times, a lot of people.
• 46:54
  And it's like, how do we feel about this Med gel thing?
• 46:58
  And I honestly don't know until we get it in our hands because
• 47:01
  how often in a PvP situation are we spawning back on like say the
• 47:08
  address? Is that all the time?
• 47:10
  50% of the time it depends where we are.
• 47:14
  But I mean how I feel like I just keep going back to the
• 47:18
  station so I can get a ship. Yeah, that's fair.
• 47:21
  I think for PvP, for FPS combat, it's going to be far more
• 47:26
  important any sort of medjo on responding, because for ship
• 47:31
  combat, obviously, yeah, you want to go get your ship.
• 47:34
  But for PV, for any sort of FPS combat, you just got to get back
• 47:39
  in there. Yeah, that's why I wonder, like
• 47:45
  at the executive hangar or something, you know how many
• 47:47
  times we got camped by people responding in a Pisces or
• 47:51
  whatever, They just keep coming back.
• 47:54
  And that'll be. Nice.
• 47:55
  Like in those situations you were going to be a little less
• 48:00
  worried. Unless there's something big
• 48:02
  like the Idris or the Abollo, like smaller ships, we kill them
• 48:07
  a couple times and they're going to run out.
• 48:12
  Yeah. I'm interested to see as far as
• 48:16
  CIG healing wounds. I mean I've been it is.
• 48:24
  The thing is I was thinking about it today.
• 48:26
  I've been playing since 0.9. Nice.
• 48:30
  Which is crazy to me. Like 0.9.
• 48:36
  Is that the I don't know. What's the hangers?
• 48:38
  What was the hanger? No, there was PO was out there
• 48:41
  was repair com or emissions and the first that's when the I I
• 48:48
  started playing right when they released the M50.
• 48:51
  That's a long time ago. I started before then so.
• 48:55
  You're old, but I think back through those times and how much
• 48:59
  it's changed, it's changed a lot in nine years to like something
• 49:04
  that you hardly even recognize how it used to look back then
• 49:07
  because you go and look at some of these videos from back then.
• 49:10
  Yeah, I've seen those. Yeah.
• 49:12
  And The thing is then, like the other day we were talking.
• 49:14
  We haven't even had Pyro for a full year yet.
• 49:19
  Really. Yeah.
• 49:20
  Yeah, we haven't even had the 600 player servers for what?
• 49:25
  When did it start? April.
• 49:28
  Thereabouts. Like we are in the beginning of
• 49:34
  like the huge changes, Pyro and the player cap.
• 49:39
  And I think like as time has gone on, we get to these parts
• 49:45
  or we get to these times where it stalls out and we have to
• 49:49
  like get the next jump, the next innovation.
• 49:53
  And The thing is, a lot of us playing for so long, it makes it
• 49:58
  feel like we've had Pyro for years when we haven't.
• 50:03
  But with like a new person coming in and starting and say
• 50:07
  they started in June, this this game is gigantic.
• 50:13
  But to us, it's been through it every step of the way.
• 50:16
  It's like it doesn't look that big and we go do the new thing
• 50:21
  and then it's done. It's the frog in the water,
• 50:24
  right? Yeah.
• 50:25
  Where the frog boiling in the water and.
• 50:28
  We go do the new thing, we go do the Onyx missions.
• 50:30
  We're like, oh, this is cool. And then we get to the the
• 50:33
  beginning of like, you know, this month and we're like, OK,
• 50:37
  what's next? And I just feel like the next
• 50:40
  big jump that will rejuvenate like people like us is going to
• 50:45
  be that base building crafting situation.
• 50:49
  I think there was pirate, there was, well there was I mean if
• 50:54
  you want to go way back there was 2 point O3 point O was a
• 50:57
  huge jump and I would say 3 point O to 315 was the next huge
• 51:01
  jump. The inventory and medical and
• 51:05
  then pyro and the I just lump the 600 player cap in with Pyro
• 51:12
  because that changed a lot of stuff too.
• 51:16
  So now here we are waiting and I just feel like we get the next
• 51:20
  big jump to me is going to be that base building crafting
• 51:25
  thing is going to be the next big jump.
• 51:26
  I don't think Knicks is going to be no the next big jump don't.
• 51:30
  Hurt me. I don't think it's going to be
• 51:33
  I, I don't think it's going to be huge for us because we're
• 51:35
  going to go there. We're going to see it couple
• 51:38
  months. It'll become old hat like Pyro,
• 51:40
  but it'll be awesome to be able to go there.
• 51:42
  It'll be cool. Like, you know, missions and
• 51:45
  People's Alliance and Levski coming back is going to be
• 51:47
  awesome. Potential land rule, right?
• 51:51
  Even even with all that, if once you throw a base building and
• 51:57
  all that into the mix, the PvP is going to change the there's
• 52:01
  going to be so much more of a drive having to get materials
• 52:07
  for the base hopefully. Logistics.
• 52:09
  I want logistics. I want us to be focusing on
• 52:12
  logistics. I want us to be able to do that
• 52:14
  and have meaning. And have a need for the industry
• 52:18
  cited things to go out industry people.
• 52:22
  All they do is just honestly is well, resource drive is one
• 52:26
  thing, but all they do is make a UEC if we can send somebody out
• 52:31
  and we like you need to mine this less desirable material
• 52:36
  because the base is running low that that's a whole drive right
• 52:40
  there for somebody be like, oh shit, red scar base is going to
• 52:43
  need this. Let's go get it.
• 52:45
  And then you throw in the org tools with it.
• 52:47
  I mean that's going to be a big jump for people like us that's
• 52:50
  in an org. Well, there are no org tools on
• 52:53
  the progress tracker. I don't even think it's listed.
• 52:57
  I don't think it's like huge. It's just going to be one of
• 53:00
  those things that's like really nice to have because I mean, as
• 53:04
  long as you have Discord and everything, you can do pretty
• 53:07
  good. But.
• 53:09
  I think it's be great if they, I mean, with all this crafting,
• 53:11
  presumably, I mean, that brings exploration a little bit online
• 53:16
  too, right? I mean, I'm just thinking about
• 53:20
  that time. Remember this time I found those
• 53:21
  blue mushrooms and I was like, yeah, I found blue mushrooms.
• 53:24
  And I was so excited that, you know, I had no idea what they
• 53:26
  were used for. But it's something that like,
• 53:30
  you know, found a cool little site, point of interest, and I
• 53:33
  had a reason to explore it. That was the one time I've done
• 53:37
  that for other things, whether it be installations and you can
• 53:40
  walk, you could spend 30 minutes exploring a place and not find,
• 53:46
  and it'd just be a pretty fruitless endeavor.
• 53:48
  And I just think finding a way to make people want to go out to
• 53:52
  where it's some rewarding, find these different things, scan a
• 53:55
  planet, find these things, I think, yeah.
• 53:59
  Base building maybe. Maybe.
• 54:00
  Crafting. And exploration are hand in
• 54:01
  hand. And to elaborate like it's good
• 54:04
  you brought up exploration because and No Man's Sky, you
• 54:07
  guys are talking about imagine the like once, once we get out
• 54:12
  of the the first stages of base building, because I'm sure we're
• 54:16
  going to lose the base like every patch or whatever, right?
• 54:18
  But once they get it to a place that it's going to persist and
• 54:22
  it's up for a while, you start getting into these like in No
• 54:26
  Man's Sky, the archaeology there, there's actual people
• 54:30
  that go out in like No Man's Sky and do actual like archaeology
• 54:35
  expeditions to see like the first systems where in No Man's
• 54:40
  Sky, all it was was those little floating orbs of the message.
• 54:43
  Remember those and people go out and look for these dead.
• 54:48
  Because of the way No Man's Sky regenerates its planet,
• 54:51
  sometimes it has to excavate out to find the base, like the the
• 54:54
  whole base because it'll be underground now because the
• 54:56
  train changed. I just just think of that like
• 55:00
  in Stars in like we're out on freaking way go, you know, my go
• 55:04
  in there and we just come across a player's base and it's
• 55:10
  abandoned to me. It's like fun to go in and like
• 55:13
  try to figure out who was here? What were they like, what they
• 55:16
  have, what they what they see? Because even in Dune, when
• 55:19
  they're all the bases around us started breaking.
• 55:22
  It was fun to go over and see how people set it up because you
• 55:24
  know the power and out so you can go right inside.
• 55:27
  Just imagine all of this like kind of stuff that comes in with
• 55:30
  it, like player driven exploration will be really
• 55:32
  interesting. I just feel like that's going to
• 55:34
  be the next jump. That was something you could do
• 55:37
  with Star Star Wars Galaxies was that exact thing.
• 55:40
  And, and for the older guilds that weren't around or for towns
• 55:46
  where, you know, they were known for like certain types of, of
• 55:52
  like different types of PvP and things like that.
• 55:55
  You can explore the, the houses and the shops that the players
• 55:58
  had already set up. And you'd find some really
• 56:01
  interesting things, especially if it was a like legendary
• 56:04
  crafter who had left the game like 3 years before.
• 56:08
  Like you'd walk into their shop and just see like these
• 56:10
  legendary things that he's never making anymore and it was just
• 56:14
  kind of cool. It open yeah all that opens up
• 56:19
  so many possibilities and he's gonna heal our wounds well as
• 56:24
  long as they stay the course and get this you know and that's
• 56:28
  nice bring up the whole thing with part of not even being out
• 56:30
  of your sometimes we get pissed but when you step back and look
• 56:36
  at it like I was just earlier today looking at videos from
• 56:40
  when I started it's it's interesting and then to the
• 56:45
  point where we had that Idris fight the other night where I
• 56:48
  snuck on the Idris and I I it was like it was interesting
• 56:53
  afterwards because I was like I literally snuck on the ship.
• 56:57
  Then they came in can oiling them on the other Idris started
• 57:02
  fighting that Idris to distract him while I was on board.
• 57:05
  It was like 5 games and one happening.
• 57:08
  There's FPS happening then this huge capital ship battle going
• 57:12
  on. I'm in an FPS battle inside with
• 57:15
  the crew. That's where Star Citizen
• 57:18
  shines. Like, yeah, all that happening
• 57:22
  at once. Yeah, there's just so much that
• 57:26
  can be done and everything. It's just when you do it a
• 57:29
  couple 1000 times, like Wicked said, it's like, OK, let's
• 57:33
  where's the next step? Where's the next big thing going
• 57:36
  to happen? And, well, some of those
• 57:38
  coolest. Moments we've made ourselves is
• 57:41
  that's kind of the issue is that like every time we've had like
• 57:45
  an interest show up or something, it's been completely
• 57:48
  unplanned and we'll be at like, like the, the worm site, Like
• 57:52
  when I did that write up for the worm site during that one
• 57:54
  operation we did and it was and we were fighting there at the
• 57:57
  worm site for what felt like hours.
• 57:59
  I just kind of holding her own against this massive crew.
• 58:03
  Completely spontaneous. And just like what you describe
• 58:07
  spontaneous, the problem is how do you make that spontaneous?
• 58:13
  How do you make spontaneous happen on a whim and on or on
• 58:18
  demand, which you can't. And that's kind of the the
• 58:22
  problem really is we you can't make magic happen like that on
• 58:27
  demand. Well, that goes counter to to
• 58:30
  the spontaneity of things like that, right?
• 58:33
  Oh yeah. It's, it's planned and it's not
• 58:35
  spontaneous, right? But you can do what you can do
• 58:39
  in an MMO setting is you can, you can craft experiences using,
• 58:46
  using missions, quests, whatever to basically make players cross
• 58:54
  paths and then that spontaneity may happen.
• 58:57
  Jump down. Hey, what happened are?
• 59:00
  We getting that? Are we getting that back?
• 59:02
  No, but like like. Jump down, you know I'm playing
• 59:09
  them. How?
• 59:09
  Many. How many?
• 59:10
  How many jump towns did you ever go to that became just a Congo
• 59:13
  line of people queuing up to get their maze?
• 59:16
  Great, perfect. I like kind of gameplay.
• 59:19
  Part of it the I had so much fun at Jumptown, even with the the
• 59:23
  mandatory duty, you know the pay the price of like OK, my duty
• 59:26
  this out of the machine. Duty.
• 59:29
  Yeah, it's I, I still think a lot of the, even some of the
• 59:32
  YouTube videos that have been done about it, there's some
• 59:34
  crazy events throwing everybody together at it.
• 59:37
  I miss jump down. I thought it was kind of fun.
• 59:41
  And the new ones we have kind of there's less of A and, and for
• 59:45
  good reason. It's, well, I think, crazy.
• 59:47
  I think, like, like I said earlier, I think a big driver of
• 59:51
  a lot of the stuff is going to be the, the, the progression
• 59:54
  part of the whole game where there's resources that are
• 59:57
  needed to progress other systems.
• 1:00:00
  And and and to keep things like, like Murphy was saying, keep,
• 1:00:04
  keep, keep your shop, keep your base running, having a necessity
• 1:00:10
  for a resource and making the resource rare and making it,
• 1:00:15
  making there a reason to fight for it.
• 1:00:19
  You know, and, and whatever space you find it and maybe it's
• 1:00:22
  a deep space and you have to use exploration to find it.
• 1:00:25
  And then you do. And maybe somebody else is using
• 1:00:27
  the exploration and they find either they are looking for what
• 1:00:31
  what you've been looking for, or maybe they're just scanning for
• 1:00:34
  ships and they happen to come upon you.
• 1:00:36
  And then now you know, hilarity ensues.
• 1:00:41
  But all again, this is all a, you know, multiplayer play space
• 1:00:47
  then, because not only do you have your industrial list, but
• 1:00:51
  you got to have your you have to have your PvP ers to cover them
• 1:00:54
  because you never know are they going to get attacked.
• 1:00:58
  You have to have transfer. I mean it, it just opens up so
• 1:01:00
  many avenues of gameplay. Logistics.
• 1:01:04
  Yeah. And I, I'm hoping, you know, I'm
• 1:01:08
  hopeful. I think that that that AI that
• 1:01:13
  did the chapters was hallucinating.
• 1:01:15
  I'm not pessimistic, I'm optimistic.
• 1:01:17
  And I'm a real, I'm a realistic. But yeah, it's getting pretty
• 1:01:22
  good. Wicked.
• 1:01:23
  I don't know. I think it's hallucinating, man.
• 1:01:26
  I don't. Think I don't think you're
• 1:01:27
  pessimist. I think you're a realist.
• 1:01:29
  I think I think you got old man vibes probably.
• 1:01:33
  And and you know, I'm I'm right up there with you, dude.
• 1:01:37
  I'm you echo a lot of the things I feel a lot of time.
• 1:01:44
  I'll I'll be honest. And it does.
• 1:01:45
  I think to Murphy's point, well, everybody echoes.
• 1:01:49
  I agree with everybody, OK? I thought you said you echoed
• 1:01:52
  me. Yeah.
• 1:01:55
  You know, none of us feels special now.
• 1:01:58
  I don't think he echoes me so. This is This is why it's so hard
• 1:02:03
  for politicians. Are you fucking dead anyway?
• 1:02:06
  How? Do you drink with him?
• 1:02:09
  What the fuck? Oh, thank you, You will drink
• 1:02:12
  with me October 11th. I won't be drinking alcohol but
• 1:02:16
  yes. I will be and we will have a
• 1:02:19
  live open Comm show. We're going to do a pre show and
• 1:02:22
  a post show. That might have been a mistake.
• 1:02:25
  We're going to be fun, but we're we're going to do them both
• 1:02:30
  shorter ones. We're going to do like an hour
• 1:02:33
  and an hour for the Citizen Con Direct are.
• 1:02:37
  There going to be callers. Well, we're going to do it live,
• 1:02:42
  so it's going to be people at the bar, citizens.
• 1:02:44
  So in the pre show we're going to have people come up just
• 1:02:47
  we're it's going to be maybe a little less interesting.
• 1:02:50
  It's going to make what do you expect?
• 1:02:51
  What do you think? And then the post show,
• 1:02:53
  hopefully we'll have a little more content to A.
• 1:02:55
  Lot of tears in the post show. You never, you never know that
• 1:03:01
  two hours could be that progress tracker all being like, here's
• 1:03:04
  your base building, here's your inventory system and you know,
• 1:03:07
  they do a little dance, you know, you never know.
• 1:03:09
  Like if the if the. Progress tracker is.
• 1:03:11
  True to form, we'll be OK. But here's The thing is they
• 1:03:16
  definitely will say that. They'll say, yeah, here's your
• 1:03:19
  base building, here's your because you've done that like
• 1:03:21
  every single. Every year, yeah, Yeah.
• 1:03:26
  That's a fairpoint. That's a that's a that's a very
• 1:03:28
  fairpoint. I don't know, dude.
• 1:03:31
  It's I haven't, I haven't played actually at all this week.
• 1:03:35
  And it's rare that I don't even like dip into arena commander or
• 1:03:38
  anything. But I was just playing.
• 1:03:40
  Probably you probably should go and move your components before
• 1:03:43
  you lose them because the patch might be coming like tomorrow
• 1:03:46
  morning. Yeah, tomorrow is probably patch
• 1:03:48
  day. I don't.
• 1:03:49
  Have components. How about your storage chips?
• 1:03:53
  I if my Hercules can go away. I could probably guarantee your
• 1:03:59
  way to lose that, Hercules. How?
• 1:04:02
  Just leave it in the middle of space and don't claim it like
• 1:04:05
  like a puppy that you don't want.
• 1:04:08
  Like no, but it'll. It'll show up on my list this
• 1:04:10
  year, so chips. I can't believe you're you're
• 1:04:13
  mistreating the Hercules like that that.
• 1:04:15
  Is. I know dude.
• 1:04:16
  It's a beloved ship for me. I've had so much fun in that
• 1:04:20
  ship. Do you know why?
• 1:04:21
  It's melee ship. No, the the problem was during a
• 1:04:24
  resource drive, it was always blocking the elevator, even if I
• 1:04:28
  like, you know, had it really far away, it was always blocking
• 1:04:32
  it. And it was a pain to get the car
• 1:04:33
  go on. And then I just realized, like,
• 1:04:35
  this isn't what I thought it was.
• 1:04:39
  I don't know. And it's so big.
• 1:04:41
  It's too big. Yeah.
• 1:04:43
  No, no, it's it's a it's good. It's I stand by that.
• 1:04:45
  It's like one of the best ships in the game, you know?
• 1:04:49
  Back in the day you could put some decent ass guns in that
• 1:04:51
  thing and it was a great ship to do missions in and then get the
• 1:04:56
  cargo off of those ships. It turns on a dime.
• 1:04:59
  Solo ER TS on the with the with the sea too.
• 1:05:03
  And then several years ago during one of the lulls and Star
• 1:05:08
  Citizen, the Red Sky Nomads, you know, there's a bunch of us, we
• 1:05:12
  came up with a game that we played in the hangar of the
• 1:05:16
  Hercules with the Murphy played. We we played with the we had
• 1:05:24
  like something that we threw through stuff.
• 1:05:26
  We, we use the tractor beam to throw stuff around.
• 1:05:28
  You try to score points and shit.
• 1:05:29
  There was like. 2 by 2. Tractor ball, remember when we
• 1:05:32
  were ketchup and mustard? Remember.
• 1:05:35
  Yeah, we, we had our own. Yeah.
• 1:05:37
  You were either yellow suit or a red suit, and that was your
• 1:05:39
  team. Well, where's tractor ball been?
• 1:05:44
  There should. Only be a list of all of these
• 1:05:47
  'cause I just think that's, I mean, this Jim Mayhem, even that
• 1:05:52
  treasure hunting. I mean, I'm reading this pirate
• 1:05:54
  week thing and I get so excited going down and seeing, oh,
• 1:05:57
  treasure hunting like you can be a treasure hunter.
• 1:05:59
  And then I read a little more to find out if it's just clues,
• 1:06:02
  obviously. And it's the same thing.
• 1:06:03
  That's kind of been that. I don't.
• 1:06:04
  Expect this from Pirate week, but you know, you get excited
• 1:06:08
  for a second just because I don't know, treasure across the
• 1:06:11
  verse would be I I don't know how difficult, but it just seems
• 1:06:17
  like just a little treasure hunt would be great every now and
• 1:06:20
  then. This, this topic, this reminds
• 1:06:22
  me of a topic that I wanted to to bring up specifically, I'm
• 1:06:25
  thinking, you know, in reference to healing our wounds and
• 1:06:29
  everything. Remember the old go Kart tracks?
• 1:06:36
  Yeah, they're supposedly. Are they still in the game?
• 1:06:38
  Yeah, it's still there. It's an Orson.
• 1:06:40
  You talk. You talk about the one over at
• 1:06:41
  Orson. Yeah.
• 1:06:45
  The one that everybody knows. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:06:47
  OK. I didn't know if there was
• 1:06:48
  another. One like what does that?
• 1:06:50
  It's like 1/2. The golf cart, right?
• 1:06:54
  Yeah, the whatever with the STV or whatever, the golf cart,
• 1:06:58
  yeah. PTV.
• 1:07:00
  PTV Yeah, that's what it was anyway, you know, bring that
• 1:07:03
  back, put a little fuck in, make it a thing.
• 1:07:05
  Anyway. TAV we have a new caller in the
• 1:07:08
  rating room, a first time caller.
• 1:07:10
  Maybe you want to introduce him? All right, let's.
• 1:07:14
  Oh, no. You're killing me.
• 1:07:18
  You're killing me. Engineers and tab.
• 1:07:22
  What is up Mr. Guy? How you doing?
• 1:07:24
  Mr. Guy, you can say what's going on.
• 1:07:29
  Bring I bring a message from. Audio censored.
• 1:07:34
  Hyper racist nonsense detected. Seriously guy in this climate?
• 1:07:41
  Nice. Yeah, I have a feeling.
• 1:07:43
  I. As well as I expected.
• 1:07:45
  I had a feeling, I don't know what I'm going to do about
• 1:07:50
  Aaron, that one, but. OK, what the hell?
• 1:07:53
  What the hell was that? I don't know, I have to figure
• 1:07:56
  out how to how to get this guy off now, right?
• 1:08:00
  Quick. Do I want to?
• 1:08:02
  Do I want to block him or do I want to bring him up again?
• 1:08:05
  No. Let's just, no, Maybe, maybe,
• 1:08:09
  maybe he's a good sport about it.
• 1:08:10
  Let's see. Let's see.
• 1:08:12
  Mr. Guy, I hope on the open comms Radio.
• 1:08:15
  Mr. Guy, how you doing? He's not prepared.
• 1:08:22
  We caught him off guard. Silence.
• 1:08:24
  What a punk. I'm not going to let him do it.
• 1:08:25
  If he's not prepared, he can go get out of here.
• 1:08:29
  Yeah. I'm surprised it took.
• 1:08:31
  I mean, that shows you the popularity of your show.
• 1:08:34
  We're just big. We're big time now.
• 1:08:36
  Oh yeah, you've been trolled. I knew it.
• 1:08:38
  I knew it right away. I saw him when.
• 1:08:40
  I saw him the name or. The general.
• 1:08:42
  Yeah, it was all right. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:08:44
  No mutual servers, yeah. How do I get him out of here?
• 1:08:48
  Right click. Right click and there's a ban
• 1:08:51
  option. There's a ban option?
• 1:08:53
  No, After we do it in like the different thing.
• 1:08:56
  I'll do it after the show, it's OK.
• 1:08:58
  If we just get two more, are we getting all?
• 1:09:05
  Right. That's cool.
• 1:09:06
  This is good. We've made all right.
• 1:09:08
  Are we going? To do a lot of editing for this
• 1:09:10
  one. Our next guest on Open Comms
• 1:09:12
  Radio, I hope they're ready, is Kayla.
• 1:09:15
  Kayla, welcome to Open Comms Radio.

• 1:09:40
  Thank you very much. This is our Star Citizen call in
• 1:09:44
  show you play Star Citizen KYV Z1.
• 1:09:47
  No, I really want to know what the game is about and see if I
• 1:09:51
  could. All right, I'm bored of that
• 1:09:53
  already. All right, I'll.
• 1:09:56
  Do it have been our first legitimate?
• 1:09:58
  I know. All.
• 1:10:03
  Right, KYVZ, come back up. They said I bullied you.
• 1:10:08
  I can't even learn about the game bro like I just shows how
• 1:10:12
  there's favoritism like yes. Oh, there's certainly.
• 1:10:17
  Definitely. The 1%, yeah, You know what the
• 1:10:20
  1% is? I'm not going to say it.
• 1:10:23
  What is it KYV Z1 You. Might as well, we're already
• 1:10:28
  getting a warning, yeah? I'm not, I'm not going to kick,
• 1:10:30
  but can you explain any fervor? Yeah, it's a it's a space game
• 1:10:35
  where you fly around spaceships and you have fun with your
• 1:10:37
  friends. If you're into space, you can
• 1:10:40
  join us. That's nice.
• 1:10:42
  That's nice to know, you know? All right, bye KYV Z1 All right,
• 1:10:47
  Well, I don't have any confidence in any of the people
• 1:10:50
  who call our waiting room right now.
• 1:10:55
  I wonder. I wonder who?
• 1:11:00
  Who let the dogs out? Who let who?
• 1:11:03
  Let the dogs out. Forget like a Roblox streamer or
• 1:11:06
  something like is that where we ended up?
• 1:11:08
  You know it would have been. Yeah, something this is this had
• 1:11:10
  to hit the front page of Twitch or something for somebody.
• 1:11:13
  Star Citizen. Brigading of some kind of like
• 1:11:16
  one of those streamers that just brigades.
• 1:11:18
  I don't know. Yeah, I mean.
• 1:11:23
  Spice things up. The thing is, is if they didn't
• 1:11:30
  have, if the first guy didn't have the name he had, I wouldn't
• 1:11:32
  have seen it coming. Maybe you know, it would have.
• 1:11:35
  It would have been like, oh, I would have been like more
• 1:11:36
  excited. So I feel like we walked right
• 1:11:39
  into it but. But then.
• 1:11:40
  Oh yeah. But then to have that name and
• 1:11:43
  then for four people to come in the caller waiting room when I
• 1:11:48
  know I don't want to toot my own horn, but we are getting, you
• 1:11:50
  know, more and more listeners every day.
• 1:11:53
  That said, we've never had that many strangers in the call.
• 1:11:56
  We've never had any strangers in the caller waiting room.
• 1:11:59
  So that was maybe that was the dead giveaway.
• 1:12:05
  Wait. What did that first guy?
• 1:12:09
  What song was playing? No, seriously.
• 1:12:14
  It was not a song it. Was not a song.
• 1:12:18
  No, no, It was a word repeated over and over and over again.
• 1:12:21
  A very ugly word. What was it?
• 1:12:24
  Yeah, So I'm gonna have to fucking edit this.
• 1:12:28
  Oh, Speaking of edits last episode, Wicked, I do want to
• 1:12:31
  address. Oh, you called in last episode.
• 1:12:35
  I mean, you can, you can, you can say your side and then I'll,
• 1:12:38
  I'll tell you my side. Well, last episode I called in
• 1:12:43
  and you know, as I tried to help the view count.
• 1:12:47
  I always play the YouTube. I I watch the whole YouTube
• 1:12:54
  every week when when think Archer puts it out and to be
• 1:13:00
  fair I only listen to my part. No, we know.
• 1:13:03
  Did I mute the rest? You get it.
• 1:13:05
  Yeah, but while I was listening to my part at 36 minutes or or
• 1:13:10
  thereabouts, in the background you can clearly hear somebody
• 1:13:14
  flushing the toilet. I heard it.
• 1:13:16
  I didn't say anything, but I heard it.
• 1:13:18
  You heard it live. Yeah.
• 1:13:20
  You didn't say anything. No, I didn't actually know who
• 1:13:24
  it was, but I heard it. OK, so here's the thing.
• 1:13:28
  Unbelievable in terms of that getting through the sensors.
• 1:13:32
  I am the sensors. And if I feel like a show went
• 1:13:36
  really well or if I didn't have any glaring audio problems, I'm
• 1:13:39
  going to like, you know, zip through it.
• 1:13:42
  Some episodes like things happen.
• 1:13:43
  So I I just like edit out like noises or crashes or whatever,
• 1:13:48
  dishes or whatever. Sometimes collars.
• 1:13:52
  Yeah. So look, man, I wasn't in the
• 1:13:55
  potty, OK? It was my my microphone has two
• 1:14:00
  settings. It has like a a spatial setting
• 1:14:04
  and like a direct setting for how it can pick up my voice.
• 1:14:07
  My mic was on the spatial setting and someone else went to
• 1:14:11
  the bathroom and it picked it up.
• 1:14:14
  I'm just thinking about how much more funny of a show it would be
• 1:14:16
  if it just cut to a live feed and everyone's just sitting
• 1:14:18
  there on the can. OK.
• 1:14:23
  And for the record, it's pronounced sense ORS.
• 1:14:30
  What? What are you talking about?
• 1:14:34
  Not sensors, everybody. All right, Am I'm going to.
• 1:14:39
  You're going to, Yeah, you're going to join the the.
• 1:14:43
  Fan Yay. Thank you.
• 1:14:46
  Anyway, at the end of the show, every week I go around and I ask
• 1:14:52
  our guests on the couch a a question.
• 1:14:56
  Three questions, really. Those three questions are do you
• 1:15:00
  have anything to say to Chris Roberts, CIG, or the people on
• 1:15:03
  the Internet? We go in reverse order this week
• 1:15:07
  is Murphy Jack. Murphy, Jack, do you have
• 1:15:09
  anything to say to CIG, Chris Roberts or the people on the
• 1:15:12
  Internet? Well, just ready for the next
• 1:15:16
  big thing, right? Base building something,
• 1:15:20
  something good, something big. Ready.
• 1:15:25
  Bring it on. How is the time?
• 1:15:29
