No. And which kind of begs the
1:33
question, why are you bullying me?
1:36
Clearly, you're angry. Yeah, I'm just angry.

4:17
Yeah, I'm not nailing it today. I'm.
4:19
Going to be gathered that I that I only joined in a little bit
4:22
ago because I'd eat dinner. I was out playing Magic.
4:26
Playing Magic. See, folks, this is what happens
4:29
when you don't watch your kids, OK?
4:31
You're getting with the wrong crowd.
4:33
And they it's. It's right, He's right.
4:35
Like don't let your kids pick up a trading card game for the love
4:39
of God. Like let them pick up drugs or
4:42
something instead. Just not a trading card game.
4:46
Mind you, mind you the Pokémon. Can I bring this back to stocks
4:51
real quick? You start.
4:53
Xbox like if they were. Going for trading cards GameStop
4:58
today released a new trading card service it's.
5:03
Going on saving card service you.
5:05
Can like what about? It you buy them, you buy them
5:07
online and then they can mail them to you.
5:13
Like what singles? Yeah, but graded.
5:16
Singles, like any game or. What?
5:20
No for like Pokémon and baseball and and stuff.
5:23
That's going to really fuck over the local game shops.
5:27
Yeah, that's kind of weird, huh? It might.
5:30
But also you must be paying like a big premium right to get like
5:33
the exact card. Well, no, it's a it's a loot
5:38
box. Oh, also also hobo, don't forget
5:42
about the addiction side of things, right?
5:45
Yeah, Cause a lot of these people, they're they're not just
5:48
in it because they just want the card for their collection.
5:51
It's the high of opening up that pack and getting the card, yeah.
5:55
Yeah, they were the first flute boxes like.
5:58
Yeah, absolutely. I remember going to.
6:02
Got your missions? To Dragon's Lair and getting
6:05
Star Wars cards. They have.
6:08
So many fucking Star Wars cards they're worthless.
6:11
Yeah. Why are they worthless?
6:14
Nobody wants them, but I had, I had a whole, a whole bunch of
6:17
them. And I've been, I've been itching
6:18
for some space cards. We were talking about that hobo
6:21
how Star Citizen needs a card game.
6:24
Yeah, I mean, they've they had the Starship set for Magic like
6:28
a year or so ago. I missed it.
6:32
I would have. Liked you mean they you mean
6:34
they need like an in lore. I mean, in lore, yeah.
6:38
Well, they could do. They could do just a regular
6:40
one, but like and there's only 200 ships or whatever and then
6:44
you'd have like Jax Macquarie. Yeah, as your pilots and they
6:49
they pilot the ships or something.
6:52
Yeah, it'd be the equivalent. Like planeswalkers, I guess.
6:55
I mean, I don't know it every other game, every other like big
7:00
title gets like a card game. Star Wars has subob.
7:04
The Witcher has. What's it called?
7:13
I don't remember the name of it. But those games can be fun.
7:16
I mean, I I remember spending lots of time in Red Dead
7:18
Redemption 2 playing poker with my buddies in Kingdom Come
7:23
Deliverance. I've played a lot of Farkle.
7:26
Farkle. It's that's a good question.
7:29
It's fun. It's a dice game, went.
7:32
All right, Quint. Yeah, that's.
7:35
The Witcher one, that's yeah, that's the Witcher one, yeah.
7:38
Would these games improve your quality of life though they.
7:42
'D be a nice distraction a. Nice distraction from from the
7:47
actual quality of life. Yeah.
7:49
Hey, the game's working great for me right now.
7:51
I don't know what you people are complaining about.
7:53
Yeah. It's been working fine for me.
7:56
Well, I'm going to. I'm going to try to get in the
7:57
game right now, just see if it launches.
8:01
I sent you that thread like did you just go through it?
8:06
You know we didn't. Were there more than two steps?
8:10
No, but I, I, no, I was, I was at work and and you sent me that
8:14
thread and then wicked told me to just restart my computer.
8:19
I mean, that's the usual effects for most things.
8:21
Turn it, turn it off and turn it back on.
8:23
Turn. It off and turn it back on
8:25
again, yeah. It's not wrong to tell you to do
8:26
that, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
8:29
But the hot fix is working. So I can I can go into the hot
8:31
fix it looks like now, which is which is fantastic and I'm glad
8:34
they're doing that and putting in all the.
8:36
Fix. Hey, that's a quick fix, right?
8:39
I mean, there used to be, you know, back in the day you
8:42
wouldn't get that kind of hot fix.
8:44
I know. You'd just be stuck if it's
8:46
broken for months. Yeah, yeah, the fixes are much
8:52
hotter now, yeah. We have to load the shaders.
8:55
Yeah, but you always had to. Now it just actually tells you
8:58
that it's doing it. Before, the only the only
9:01
indication you had that your shaders hadn't loaded was your
9:04
shitty frame rate. Yeah, and that's improved my
9:07
frame rate. I also bought a new GPU but my
9:09
frame rate's up. Same on both fronts, my new GPU
9:14
is helped but it even before the GPU like it started getting
9:18
better and better from wow. It started getting better from
9:21
the software side of things, but my hardware was clearly getting
9:24
on and. If either of you wants to send
9:26
me a new GPU. Actually, if any of the
9:28
listeners out there would like to send me a new GPU.
9:32
Duke. Get a fucking job, Duke.
9:35
Nah. Go go, go pick yourself up by a
9:37
bootstraps. Go fucking work on a fucking on
9:40
a bridge. Then get over it.
9:44
It's oddly specific. We're we're building bridges
9:48
again in the US. Yeah, I know there's a there's a
9:54
lot of bridges where I live. And you could you could drive to
9:57
Baltimore. Yeah, but why would you want to?
10:00
I have. I have driven to Baltimore.
10:02
I. To build the bridge.
10:04
Don't see myself doing it again. They do need to rebuild that
10:07
bridge. Yeah, I'm, I'm all about
10:10
building walls. Then you're going to drive even
10:14
further for that. I mean, you, you could go
10:16
through the new probably northern wall we'll be getting,
10:19
but it's, it's going to be a while if that happens, I imagine
10:23
we will. Well, you're going.
10:26
To We're going to be in the southern wall.
10:28
Is this, is this what we were supposed to be talking about?
10:30
No. Quality of life.
10:34
Well, you know, we had a question.
10:37
We had a question on here we wanted to know.
10:43
Fucking Duke, dude. Literacy.
10:45
What is that? What is that?
10:48
Well, speaking, Speaking of literacy, I think putting in the
10:51
game, you know, maybe some words to help you out.
10:56
Now you say, well, Jar Jar Jabroni, they have words to help
10:59
you out. You just pop up your mobiglass,
11:01
you open up the journal. In fact, some of the missions,
11:04
especially the beginner missions, reference the journal
11:07
in the mobiglass. And if you take the first hand
11:11
mining mission with Shubin, it says, oh, you need to get like
11:15
these three things reference this section in the journal.
11:19
So I go to the, oh, no, it was, it was for the Ron to dung.
11:22
Reference the zoological section in your journal in your Moby
11:25
glass to, to find out more. So I go there and I'm looking
11:29
for Ron to dung. There's no Ron to there's no Ron
11:32
to dung. There's like 4 creatures listed
11:34
on like A1 pager and yet the mission is telling me to go
11:39
there but there's no information there for me.
11:41
So what do I what do I do? I go to Google it and then I
11:45
just give up and I go into chat and I go hey do you want to have
11:48
rent a poop? And I do that for about an hour
11:51
and then hobo gave me some poop. Yeah, shit all over him.
11:56
What? Wow.
11:58
He wanted shit and he got it. Yeah, but that was my play
12:02
experience. Instead of actually playing the
12:04
mission and going to like wherever they are, I just go, oh
12:08
you got poop? And he's got, you're opening an
12:11
app, you know, you're, you're opening Chrome or something,
12:14
you're Googling, you're not even playing the game.
12:17
And then you're just begging people in chat for for stuff.
12:21
Yeah. And then?
12:22
That could deal with hobo bullying me.
12:26
Yeah, I was helping. You.
12:29
Stand up there. Oh, you want this poop Poop boy?
12:35
Well, you, you were a little poop boy who wanted poop.
12:41
Wow, wow. So just a reminder, the folks in
12:43
the audience down there, if you want to come on up, just raise
12:46
your hand. We're doing hands now.
12:48
We're treating this. We're treating this.
12:51
Kindergarten style. Kindergarten style.
12:54
We're we're trying to give our guests some agency.
12:56
You know, in the past we would just kind of, we'd be like,
12:59
hobo, you're coming up and we just, we'd call you, we'd grab
13:01
you, pull you up. You know, I'm not sure if you're
13:03
ready. Drag me onto the couch and.
13:04
You know, we, we get a lot, we get a lot of silence, 'cause
13:09
people aren't ready, they're muted.
13:11
You know, they're trying to close the porn tabs and get back
13:14
to yeah, paying attention to the the number one star students in
13:18
Call in podcast that airs. But it comes early one.
13:20
Through right now, but yeah, we figure it out.
13:22
So we're working out some of the kinks is what we're doing.
13:27
So are they? Woof.
13:30
Hey you. Hey you.
13:32
Hey, you. Well, look guys, if you don't
13:35
want to talk Star Citizen, we could talk about the Everybody
13:37
Loves Raymond 30th anniversary reunion.
13:39
Did you guys check that out? No.
13:41
Not at all in my interest. I hated that show when I was.
13:45
You know who I'm talking about though, right?
13:47
I'm familiar with it, yes, everybody loves.
13:49
Raymond, How would you feel about a Ray Romano cameo in
13:55
Squadron 42? Didn't.
13:58
He get cancelled. Ray Romano.
14:04
No, dude, no, he's been pretty good.
14:05
I don't think he had cancelled, but so yeah, I think if he's
14:08
like it opens up like the regular sitcom, right.
14:12
But the house is actually it's a hab on like a moon somewhere.
14:17
And they they start like their sitcom stuff and they're getting
14:21
into it and then a vandool just like busts through the door and
14:24
impales them on like a big spear and then murders them all.
14:31
There you go. Or is that true Family Guy?
14:34
How has, how has our brain been? Have our brains been Family Guy?
14:41
Defied. Yeah, Family Guy of Family Guy
14:44
of five. Oh, because we were.
14:45
We were the age when it came out.
14:48
Yeah, you. Know what I mean?
14:50
Yeah. Yeah.
14:51
We're all we're all of this world of a similar age here.
14:54
I didn't mean for it to be that way, but it's every everybody we
14:59
meet seems to be of a similar age.
15:01
Well that's because people that play Star Citizen are fucking
15:04
old. You you need a certain amount of
15:08
income and time to to to to play Star Citizen.
15:12
I have way less time and income than I had when when I was
15:16
younger. Yeah, well, your grandfather
15:17
did. It's true, yeah.
15:20
Yeah, yeah, I'm, I mean, I feel, I feel the same way sometimes
15:27
because my my computer is now totally outdated.
15:30
I've gone full circle. I started OK and then that
15:34
computer was outdated and then I got a new one which was good and
15:39
now I'm outdated again. This is goes back to that old
15:43
conversation about I've been playing Star Citizen for so
15:46
long. Yeah, I mean when I when I kick
15:50
started the game, I did not even have a computer that could play
15:53
it even like even back then. Wow, reaching for the stars,
15:57
huh? I had a laptop back then.
16:00
But he saved up his coins. He went to fucking work on the
16:03
bridge, Duke. He didn't sit here and complain.
16:07
He started welding and and putting chewing gum in cracks.
16:11
And you tell him Hobo. Yeah, I, I, I started before it
16:15
even got damaged. I, I, I knew it was coming.
16:20
And I used those powers to hoard the materials needed to rebuild
16:24
the bridge. And that was ready.
16:26
Yeah, man, I don't know. There's there's a bridge near me
16:29
that kind of fell down, so I don't know if that was you or
16:32
not, but. Well, I need to get the
16:34
materials from somewhere. Oh, originally, you guys, was
16:37
that last year that the boat crashed into the bridge?
16:39
Yep, Yeah, down there that was. Baltimore.
16:41
That was the whole bit. On the Baltimore Bridge.
16:43
Yeah, I'm, I'm telling you, I'm catching up with the bit now.
16:48
That's like 30 minutes. Ago OH.
16:50
God. Damn this show is so topical.
16:54
Hey, speaking. Speaking of infrastructure
16:57
though. New trams.
16:59
System. New trams system.
17:01
Oh yeah, new. New new new trams.
17:02
That sounds pretty socialist, that preview.
17:05
Someone put it on the on Reddit they posted the new trams and it
17:08
was just a video of someone fucking riding the train.
17:11
I like area 18 and after like 20 seconds I was like what am I
17:15
watching? Oh, OK, nothing.
17:17
Well, even all the all the evacati notes and everything,
17:20
it's like you should not notice anything.
17:23
It's like, cool. And you don't?
17:25
I mean the only. Thing I noticed was I.
17:27
Passed out on the train, which is realism.
17:32
It's only real if you if you wake up again a little while
17:35
later next to a guy wearing nothing but boxers and a tank
17:38
top and like mismatched flip flops.
17:41
Peak realism. Yeah.
17:45
We, we could do a whole episode about people wearing pajamas in
17:48
public. Instead, we're going to we're
17:51
going to invite this guy up to speak who probably would wear
17:54
pajamas in in public. This guy's done.
17:57
With us. Yeah, he's been he's been with
17:59
us from the beginning. Sometimes in he's I imagine him
18:03
in Tolis shoes, actually, Duke, now that you mention it, it is
18:07
wicked, wicked. Welcome to open Comms Radio,
18:09
your Star Citizen call and show you're live with Duke.
18:11
Later the second cosmic hobo Jar Jar Jabrony.
18:14
This week's question What's your quality of life wish list and
18:18
why is it controller support? Citizens, long time listener,
18:25
occasional caller. And it's an interesting question
18:32
because I think the biggest, I was thinking about something
18:37
totally different. And then Duke mentioned all the
18:41
struggles he went through with different computers and stuff
18:44
started thinking, making me think about quality of life,
18:47
something that maybe not considered quality of life, but
18:51
should be. And that's some optimization
18:54
think. About it now.
18:57
You know, I built my computer last year.
19:00
I put 64 gigs of really fast RAM in it.
19:03
It cost me about 200 bucks. That same kit of RAM today, if I
19:09
went down to the store I bought it at, would cost $1300.
19:13
This is this is a time when we're going to go into that time
19:16
in like in in the post apocalypse, when like old
19:19
technology is super valuable. You know, these fifty 90s people
19:24
have maybe in 10 years that'll be like, you know.
19:29
Grail, the whole grail. The the point is, is that it's,
19:33
it's, it's already, it's always been kind of expensive to play
19:36
this game optimally because of the amount of compute and video
19:43
the card you need to get a really good experience.
19:47
Then on top of the amount of money you spend it in at the
19:52
pledge store to get the shit you want.
19:57
Is it too far? I asked the quality of life to
19:59
improve, you know, do some performance tweaking, some
20:05
optimization, because it's not getting any cheaper to build,
20:10
you know, badass computers and. Is that just going to be
20:13
limiting the the audience for this game at some point because
20:19
nobody's going to be able to afford the decent?
20:21
You don't think this game's feeling old in some?
20:25
Way no. No, I, I think, I mean, I think
20:28
there has been other, we can all see there has been a lot of
20:32
optimization, but they're still adding stuff.
20:36
There's still so much to add. So I think it is, it's going to
20:38
be a while before we can even begin to say the game's
20:42
optimized, you know? The, the, the point I'm trying
20:45
to make is that, you know, for this game to be successful, I
20:49
mean, yeah, it's got kind of a, a built in audience already, but
20:52
they've already spent their money.
20:54
You know, you're going to ask them to keep spending and
20:55
spending and spending. But you know, at some point that
21:00
that hits a, a limit, you know, where's my return?
21:06
And then to really make this thing dry thrive as especially
21:10
in, in in the MMO setting, we, you know, I've said it many
21:15
times before that we need new blood, we need new eyes.
21:18
We need the youth and the youth, you know, they're all used to
21:23
playing shit on their phones and these crappy consoles and even
21:27
the consoles are starting to dwindle in, in, in, in upgrade
21:31
release cycles and stuff. They just keep reselling the the
21:34
old hardware with a little bit of a tweak, a little bit of
21:38
magic Microsoft or PlayStation dust in them and they put a
21:41
letter on the end of the name and, you know, charge a couple
21:45
extra $100 and oh, better get this new console.
21:48
But and and you go to look at PCs that you really need.
21:52
I mean you, you're going to spend several $1000 on the
21:56
computer. If you want something decent now
21:59
you can get away. With my peripherals, you know.
22:03
A couple 100 bucks, you know, multiple hundreds of dollars on
22:06
2. People into buying computers
22:08
just to play this game and joysticks.
22:11
And are they happy? Do they play?
22:14
No, they don't you. Probably.
22:18
You probably caused a divorce somewhere.
22:20
Well, well, one of one of them is a guy with he's, he's got the
22:24
cash for it, but he's also just super busy, a very busy person.
22:28
And the other one is, is the youngblood.
22:31
You know, he's, he's out there growing a mustache and and
22:35
figuring out life. So he, he's too busy working on
22:38
a bridge. What the hell do they play
22:42
Rainbow 6 Siege? Like they're still playing that.
22:44
That's dude Siege young guys. Siege bullied me and I left God.
22:49
You know Georgia, dude. At some.
22:52
At some point, at some point you're going to have to learn to
22:55
stand up for yourself. They kept shooting me like my
22:59
teammates and they would call me the N word because I always I
23:03
always play as castle and like like not like like all the time.
23:08
This happened frequently enough that I left.
23:12
I think the future of America is in good hands.
23:15
Does not surprise me, unfortunately.
23:20
Besides the RAM, I went down about hardware and optimizations
23:24
and all that stuff. I do actually have some some
23:29
wish list items. Let's do it.
23:31
Santa's listening. Controller support.
23:35
The first one would be Guild Tools.
23:41
The what? What is it?
23:43
Guild tools, You know, shared inventory, shared ships.
23:48
What's it? Oh, org toy, Org tools?
23:51
Org Toys. Yeah, not orgasm.
23:54
Guild toys not. Orgasm like you open your Moby
23:57
glass and there's information about your Guild and like in
24:01
trade things you can go to requests and in your Moby Glass
24:04
for. Certain things you know you
24:05
could, you could, you could maybe have like a shared hanger
24:08
and you could let you, you could allow your their Guild mates
24:11
based on their access controls and their rank in the Guild,
24:15
what they could, you know which ship they could go into, which
24:17
inventories they have access to. Let's be real, this is like #1
24:21
quality of life wish list. Anyone who actually plays the
24:24
game well, anyone who plays the game with a group of people.
24:27
This has got to be. Oh yeah, social fools at the
24:29
top. I mean, obviously we're talking
24:31
about orgs and you know, I put my little spin on it and call it
24:34
a Guild, but everybody knows what I'm talking about.
24:36
Can can we, can we just acknowledge that this is very
24:39
low hanging fruit for them? Like I don't know what.
24:43
It may be game it, it's it's stuff that as especially as this
24:48
now this crafting stuff is coming on and they're going to
24:50
iterate on that. Then the next thing is going to
24:52
be crafting of components. Then eventually we're going to
24:56
craft our bases. You're going to have to have
24:58
some sort of access controls when it comes to bases you can't
25:01
do. You think we will be crafting
25:03
bases before we have org tools? No, I hope not.
25:07
I don't think it would work because what are you going to
25:10
do? Have Murphy Jack stand at the
25:12
door and let people in and out all day long.
25:14
We could do that. Murphy, Jack I.
25:17
Mean it would be funny, but. Yeah, that'd be good.
25:18
New job is just stand in. Front torment.
25:22
Tav Tav did that once for I forget what we were doing
25:26
because like I'll just guard the door and he sat with a rifle and
25:28
he was set for like an hour and a.
25:31
Half OK, sometimes. Sometimes that's the kind of
25:34
gameplay we need, you know? Look, that's what people want to
25:37
do. And then besides that, besides
25:41
go ahead. That's it, That's it.
25:46
Besides having that, the other quality of life would be some
25:52
sort of waypoint creation and waypoint sharing like for.
26:00
Instance. You know, I, I, I don't know if
26:03
you guys noticed, but I was in, in our, in our Guild discord and
26:07
I had come across a, a juicy gold rock that I was looking for
26:11
and I needed some help to break it.
26:13
It would have been cool if I could have just marked the
26:15
location of that rock, went to get a bigger ship or maybe
26:19
recruited some teammates and to help me break it.
26:22
But no, I had to sit there and wait for people to log into my
26:25
server, come and find me. And then we finally got it.
26:28
We, we got it done. But the point being, you know,
26:32
or you know, this is this is a 900 plus gold rock.
26:36
I could have made a waypoint and then taking that waypoint and
26:40
announcing global. Hey, does anybody want this 900
26:42
rock sell you the waypoint to it for X amount of dollars.
26:47
And then the waypoint system is also going to be needed when we
26:52
have like Guild bases. You want to be able to mark that
26:56
somewhere to where only, only your, your, your org slash Guild
27:00
mates can have access to it. And you don't have to always
27:04
have somebody there already to fly to a marker somewhere.
27:07
I mean, that's going to be asinine.
27:09
The waypoint system is a high priority for me.
27:14
I feel like reputation will be really important to have in once
27:19
that's up and running too We. Probably have that.
27:25
What? We have reputation.
27:28
We do. Not no, I mean.
27:30
Players, I mean player Rep, yeah.
27:32
Yeah. So that if I'm out there selling
27:35
locations and I'm, I mean, this is interesting too, because how,
27:39
how do you communicate the quality of the rock?
27:43
How do you show proof of that? Right?
27:44
Like I'm going to be like, hey, I've got a, you know, it's like
27:48
a, you know, huge ass gold rock, yadda, yadda, yadda.
27:54
Who wants the location? Well, can we like send a
27:58
screenshot to global? Do we?
28:03
It would be nice again, always the answer comes back to if it's
28:06
part of the game, it's better. So if you were able to scan the
28:10
rock so that you literally had like an in game file and.
28:15
Attach that to the waypoint. Yeah, or it or it just becomes
28:19
the waypoint. Even that would be fantastic,
28:22
right? Because otherwise it's.
28:23
Like, because they already have beacons.
28:24
So like, I feel like technically, yeah.
28:27
Yeah, otherwise you could just create a waypoint to.
28:30
Yeah, but to make like a beacon, you have to die, don't you?
28:34
To make like a medical beep. Beacon No no no.
28:37
You can open your Moby glass if you've been.
28:38
Purchased. No, there's an option in your
28:41
Moby glass. At least there was.
28:42
You open your Moby glass and it just you can do a beacon
28:46
anywhere. There were like transport and
28:50
medical beacons, but. Yeah, I don't, I don't think.
28:53
You don't have to be dead to you.
28:55
Right. Those have been gone for a
28:57
while. They did not survive 4 point O.
29:00
Yeah. The beacon system in general I
29:03
don't think's really survived 4 point O yeah.
29:07
Well, Speaking of survivors, yeah, if you listen to the show
29:10
every week, you are an open Comm survivor and we and we
29:14
appreciate everything you do and we, we love getting your
29:17
feedback and we love hearing your comments.
29:20
And we love you. And we love you and.
29:23
And take if you. Pop on down to the resources
29:25
channel. We have a a few comments here.
29:27
I'm going to start, I'm going to start, I'm going to read 1 idea
29:32
from Jonathan 4443. Jonathan 4443 says, trying to
29:40
push this idea, get quality off the rocks, back to the way it
29:45
was. Now add that quality after the
29:48
refining process through creating alloys with your
29:52
refined ore and other stuff. Jonathan, I think you're not
29:59
alone. Yeah, and we got a nod for
30:03
Jonathan or a slap. Yeah, sounds familiar.
30:07
I think I've been brought up brought up a time or two here.
30:14
If you just you want, you want to read, yeah, go for it, Yeah.
30:16
I I think everyone, yeah, I think, I think the feedback from
30:20
the, you know, crafting .0001, whatever we're at right now is
30:27
that this promise. But we all see that there's some
30:32
serious changes that needs to happen, right?
30:37
Yeah, yeah. The most important one I saw
30:40
right off the bat is just from at Sophia Dolk.
30:46
Dolke whining but I want functional pool tables, damn it.
30:52
Yeah. Sophia, it's it's not going to
30:55
happen. It's not going to happen.
30:57
We have. Pool tables, admittedly.
31:00
Functional pool tables and this. Is functional.
31:03
This is an of mine that I'm I'm always grinding, which is just
31:07
that it's it's never going to fucking happen.
31:09
Guys. The the physics of a working
31:11
pool table in game are way too complicated.
31:15
They need to get rid of every fucking pool table.
31:17
Instead, put it put in a card table and create an in law card
31:22
game that we can play. And as you sit down at the table
31:24
to play, you click a button and boom, it goes to like a top
31:27
down. You know, old, like just make
31:30
it, make it functional. We've seen it in other games.
31:34
We've seen it in Witcher, Red Dead Redemption, you know,
31:37
Kingdom Come Deliverance. You can play games in game and
31:40
it can be fun and entertaining and diegetic and immersive and
31:44
all that. Oh.
31:44
You said the word. You said the word.
31:46
He said it, he said it. We need like a we need like a
31:49
exactly, but but it's not going to happen with pool.
31:53
Prove me wrong, Chris, please, I I would love to eat my sock.
31:57
You know, five years from now be playing the most.
32:01
I should stop right now actually because I'm going to add like
32:04
more you're going. To be eating a lot of.
32:05
Sock eating a lot of sock. Hey, that would be the first
32:09
time, OK? It'd be nice.
32:11
I'd be, I'd be into it. Yeah, we could.
32:13
I, I think, I think if you're, if you're going to think about
32:17
pull the I don't think not having getting rid of the pool
32:20
table is not because it would be computationally hard to to to
32:25
implement. I think they could figure that
32:27
out easily enough. I think the reason they should
32:30
get a rid of the pool table is in In what world do you want to
32:35
have a bunch of dense plastic objects that could fly all over
32:39
the place like ballistic bullets when you're.
32:42
Maneuvering your ship, that is a very good point, yeah.
32:47
You know, at least the like the chess board and something in the
32:50
one ship. I, I guess you could make those
32:52
magnetic and make it hard, you know, and just increase the
32:57
magnetism to put it in storage mode or whatever.
33:02
And if, if, if Chris Roberts made pool, each of those pool
33:05
balls, like they'd be their own thing and you could take them up
33:07
and they could flop. So people would be constantly
33:10
missing their pool balls. Everybody would always be still
33:13
in the 8 ball to take it somewhere.
33:19
The most multi guy in in Star students would be the one that
33:23
has his complete. You know, once the game goes
33:26
live, of course there's going to be Steam achievements and
33:29
killing somebody with an 8 ball is going to be a an achievement
33:33
probably. That'd be cool.
33:36
Can you shove in the boom tube to kill somebody with?
33:39
Yeah. Yeah.
33:42
So there's you know, not all of our listeners who comment are
33:47
are the smartest at the are you throwing Shay pirate?
33:53
No, never at the pork Pirate says read AJK Rowling book
33:58
instead of listening to this drivel.
34:01
Agreed that. I am actually insulted by that
34:04
comment. I mean, yeah, I mean JJKI mean,
34:07
you know, she throws a lot of hate and we we throw a lot of
34:11
love. So.
34:12
So. Fuck.
34:13
Not all the time though. Sometimes.
34:15
Sometimes you bully me. Oh, Jar Jar.
34:18
We, we talked about this. We're going to do, we'll do some
34:21
role play later. Yeah, we'll do some practicing.
34:24
I'll bully you, You'll stand up for yourself and we'll we'll
34:27
build your confidence. Thank you.
34:30
All right. Well, we're, we're going to keep
34:31
the comments going, but we're going to take a little break
34:33
from the comments here because we have another, another caller
34:36
in the waiting room and somebody got just somebody that's so
34:41
perfect. OK, OK, Perfect Bill.
34:47
He is friends. Perfect, Bill.
34:49
Perfect Bill Welcome to beautiful comms radio stars
34:52
Jason Collins show. Perfect Bill, What's your
34:55
quality of life wish list and why is controller support on it?
35:01
You know, sometimes you just know how to hit the head of the
35:05
nail or the nail on the head or something because yeah, just
35:11
straight up controller support for everything and not have to
35:15
worry about having 16 fingers in order to touch all the buttons.
35:18
That'd be. Pretty cool.
35:21
Yes. That would be pretty.
35:23
Cool, I told you there are dozens.
35:25
Of I need that in my life that's been.
35:27
The best? Yeah, I mean, that would be
35:30
super cool because I know there's somebody around here
35:33
that uses a controller for everything.
35:35
Oh. Yeah.
35:36
I think I think CI GS time would be better spent just building
35:39
actual spaceships. Do we?
35:43
I mean, more spaceships would always be cool too.
35:46
You know, like real do we like give us the actual ship to fly?
35:50
Well, yeah, that's what this all is, right?
35:52
It's rather than put more time into.
35:54
Or what's going to happen in real life with the?
35:57
Like an Ender's Game situation, like.
35:58
A. We are we.
36:00
Flying ships in the future right now to.
36:03
We need to be. We're in a Galaxy far, far away
36:05
that. Hurt me.
36:08
There's layers. But yeah, that and like one
36:13
thing I would really like and I don't know, you know, I'm sure
36:18
it's a huge task to ask for, but can I just get it where if I go
36:23
through a wormhole to go somewhere and I make.
36:28
Do the damn thing. But I actually end up where I'm
36:32
going rather than spitting back out into standing or some dumb
36:38
stuff like that. Bill, maybe it's pilot, pilot
36:41
error, maybe you made the mistake.
36:43
No, that's not possible. That's not possible.
36:45
Perfect. Perfect, Bill.
36:47
Yeah. And like, like I get it if you
36:49
hit the sides or the the little pillar things too much.
36:52
Yeah. Like yeah, I get that could
36:54
cause the fail. Maybe like a pop up that says
36:56
hey you're an idiot, stop hitting things.
37:00
Well, some sort of indication like a bar of your quantum
37:03
bubble, you know, quantum bubble integrity would be nice.
37:07
Yes, that'd be cool 'cause like like with Nyx, it's real hard to
37:11
kind of tell because like they're kind of the same color.
37:14
Like with Pyro though, you can really know when you get to the
37:17
end of the tunnel. Like OK, I didn't make it.
37:19
This is an all orange and gross and rocky.
37:25
I got to do this all over again. And also, you know, OK, hang on
37:32
now you're getting me going. So I thought of something else,
37:34
and this is going to be a hot topic, I think, because so
37:38
currently right now, when you die, Oh no, I guess it's about
37:43
the same thing. I was going to say like when you
37:45
die, you keep your fit and your guns you had on.
37:48
You're just not what's in your backpack.
37:51
But like if you explode in a ship with some cargo, like let
37:54
me go ahead and just get that cargo back too.
37:56
But that's never mind. That's kind of the same thing as
37:59
the backpack, the ship. Component as the backpack.
38:02
Yeah, yeah. Which honestly, I think you
38:05
shouldn't get your components back if they if you really want
38:08
the controversial topic here, no, that's.
38:11
Too much. No dude, they they get wrecked.
38:15
And why you're just stuck stuck with the stock or you're stuck
38:18
with no components? Whatever you.
38:20
Have. Whatever you've stored, because
38:25
why? How would they?
38:27
Maybe not all components, maybe some components you can include
38:30
in your insurance, but certainly there should be components that
38:33
when you lose them, you lose them.
38:35
OK. Yeah, so like the military grade
38:37
stuff maybe like. Yeah.
38:39
Like the stuff you get from doing like an executive hanger
38:41
or like some stuff that you like really earn in game that you can
38:45
go and earn again. Totally.
38:47
Well hold hold on a second. As long as the game is an alpha
38:51
and development no. When the game gets released I
38:55
agree with you. But until then I I think total
38:59
loss should be full loot full loss.
39:03
Yeah, like it was like you got to go to your body and get your
39:05
stuff, right. Well, either that or there's no
39:09
body to get, or there's, you know, I've always.
39:13
Oh like the vapeoo rise but it's vape body buyer.
39:17
Like. Well, no.
39:17
Deep cut. I think I think once the game
39:22
goes to one point O and the game is released, I think that's the
39:26
that's a valid statement. You shouldn't be able just to
39:30
spawn your shit back. You shouldn't.
39:32
You know, you should lose your stuff.
39:33
You should be able to. Get OK.
39:36
I, I think there should be a penalty for dying, you know,
39:39
just like there should be a penalty for killing.
39:41
And in lawful space, you should be penalized for that.
39:44
You should be haunted down and sent to the clink, you know, and
39:47
it shouldn't be just for a couple hours.
39:49
You shouldn't have to really work to get your way out.
39:51
It should doing crime should be should be punishing if you're
39:56
caught doing crime in the in the.
39:58
That's right, Sig wants to make. It be able to crime.
40:00
I I like to remind everyone that this is the same.
40:03
Gentleman, if they if they want to that.
40:04
We need the young blood in the game.
40:06
Yeah, well, they're fine with the most.
40:09
Still there we can punish them. Well, it's not a punishment, the
40:12
young. Grueling with grueling 5 day
40:15
long prison sentences that they have to buy rocks for and stand
40:20
in line for for mush to eat in prison.
40:24
Wouldn't it be cool? You could.
40:25
Get re. Prisoners out of clash to work
40:28
on your ship. That would be really cool.
40:31
Yeah, on your garbage. Scalp so we're so we're just
40:35
going to model all of it off of the American incarceration
40:39
system of course what. Did they do in the UK?
40:44
Make them eat British food? I don't know.
40:47
Well, if if they're going to model it on realism, you know
40:52
you'll get away with breaking the law 35 times before anything
40:56
happens to you. What I'm saying?
40:58
Only if your uncle is the is the sheriff.
41:00
No, no, no, no. It has nothing to do with that.
41:04
Come to Atlanta where I live, and you see the same people on
41:09
the news all the time. This is this is Ronald's 39th
41:14
offense. Maybe Ronald's trying to tell us
41:20
something. You know, somehow.
41:22
Ronald. Is is somehow was able to do 39?
41:27
Offense, he's trying to tell us it's time to get a it's time to
41:30
end the Happy Meal, so that's what he's trying to tell us.
41:32
They're all little things. Ronald just keeps crossing the
41:35
line just a little bit. It's just a little bit of
41:38
things, you know, and he's. Testing the water, right?
41:41
Listen. Ronald.
41:42
Ronald's. Ronald's could fly.
41:45
No, no, it's like shoplift. Yeah, he's stealing T-shirt
41:47
T-shirts, you know. But the problem is there's
41:50
people probably wearing those T-shirts when you take some.
41:55
Mannequins aren't people. We've talked about this.
41:57
Hey, hey, hey, you leave, Sarah. All right.
42:03
All right. So we do have a couple more
42:06
comments here, Bill. I don't know if you're
42:08
listening, but we're. Reading some listener comments
42:11
and we have a few a few good ones here.
42:15
Tweaked 74 says annoyingly smart but can't read a face clock.
42:22
Oh, this is. This is in reference to we.
42:24
Were talking about. Gen.
42:25
Z here about the young, about the youth, so tweaked is
42:29
obviously he maybe tweaked 74 is 74.
42:33
Well, he can read a clock, so. All right, he was born in 1974,
42:38
so that still makes him 74. Wow.
42:43
It's true though, a lot of kids can't read face clocks.
42:45
But I mean, if you think when you were a kid, dude.
42:47
That's true. Kids are stupid.
42:49
I don't think that's true. I mean, we all could read when
42:52
we were all kids. We could read face clocks, just
42:55
the only clock that was in our school.
42:56
And we're like, you know, you got to get out of.
42:58
Yeah, you got to get. Down to the second what time it
43:00
was, you get the fuck out. They can read it.
43:04
They can read if, if, if you're a Gen. alpha or, or zoomer or
43:09
whatever and, and you're telling the old timers that you can't
43:12
read the the face clock. We know.
43:15
We know the real reason. No, they can't.
43:17
They just don't want to. No, they.
43:19
Can't it's the it's that that Boomer is annoying the cast and
43:23
you're like, I don't know. I I can't read that that circle
43:26
thing. I don't know.
43:28
Yeah. Well, we have Jitirai 9468.
43:34
Jitirai 9468 says Are you getting paid to do this or are
43:39
you paying to do this? Oh, did we already?
43:42
Did we already let him know about the cruise special?
43:47
Not yet. Well, I was that.
43:49
I don't know if that was in. Reference to Blue Buzz.
43:51
Or or just for people playing the game in general.
43:56
Well, this was this was in reference to Wicket when
43:58
Wicket's daughter asked him, are you paying or getting paid to do
44:02
this? Oh, he's a 2017 Star Citizen
44:12
veteran. Does that count as a veteran?
44:14
I. Think so.
44:16
I mean like it's what, like 7 years ago?
44:19
Almost 10 years. Nine years like.
44:20
Almost 10 years ago. Yeah, I think he's a bit.
44:24
Does that count? Yeah, I I think it counts.
44:26
Wow. Dude, my life is almost over.
44:33
It's a good life, it's a good life.
44:35
Who you going to lead your? We made it charged to this one.
44:37
Account to that should be a question when you're when we.
44:41
It's probably my most valuable asset.
44:46
I am fake teeth Neon teeter 4551 Neon teeter 4551 says.
44:56
Hey, stop shooting me. I'm going to do it in in his
44:58
voice. Calling this garbage fire a game
45:01
is rich after latest update you are lucky to get the login
45:05
screen. After you successfully login you
45:08
are faced with the unplayable jitter and everything.
45:11
Fuck this. Sounds like me.
45:12
Here I I love the fact that he obviously plays it too.
45:19
Is all I heard. There, every time, every day was
45:21
playable. It's, it's obviously not some
45:27
like some random who's just like walked by the room and they're
45:30
like, oh, what are these people talking?
45:31
About Oh no I. I don't know about this, this is
45:34
so weird. Now that's that's not a real
45:36
game. No, this is some some chuckle
45:38
fuck like us. Who's who's?
45:42
Logging in on the daily and and let's be honest, he can't.
45:46
He can't afford a computer that can play the game, which we
45:49
sympathize with, and he's not happy, but he wants
45:52
optimization. Chris, this is a call for help.
45:56
Yeah. Chris Robert, please, please get
45:59
neon. Look, Neonteater 4551 isn't
46:01
wrong. Maybe I read him in the wrong
46:05
voice. Right get read him with some
46:08
more empathy. Right voice all.
46:10
Right. All right, I'll do.
46:10
I'll try to do more empathetic. OK, calling the garbage fire of
46:16
a game is rich. After the latest update you are
46:21
lucky to get a login screen. After you successfully login,
46:26
you are faced with unplayable jitter and every.
46:29
Is anybody else turned on? Yeah, very far as the rock.
46:34
Fuck yeah, dude. I am bricked up right now.
46:39
Jar jar jar if if the real estate doesn't work out, I think
46:42
you've got a future. Porn narrative radio.
46:46
I can do only phones radio. There you go, only phones.
46:50
Why aren't we right now? That's what we ought to do.
46:58
Only phones. Very well done.
47:01
Lord Dubious. I see you down there in the
47:02
audience. I'm happy to pull you up.
47:04
I just want to remind you we're we're raising hands now.
47:06
So I don't want to pull you up if you don't want to be pulled
47:08
up. Because he.
47:10
He wants to be pulled up. We are all about.
47:12
Consent always he's. Protesting because there's not a
47:16
raise antennae button. Wicked.
47:19
Wicked, you need to change your intro with the Dorian left.
47:23
But I think the no, the you know, the, the long time caller,
47:27
occasional, I mean a long time listener, occasional caller.
47:31
You're you're beyond occasional. You're frequent.
47:33
You're a frequent caller. No, I'm occasional no.
47:37
You, yeah, you'd free. You'd you'd have to miss quite a
47:39
few more to be occasional. I'm sorry, we have been in the
47:43
mission show. Sorry, but yeah, we we have an
47:46
announcement speaking to us in shows.
47:48
Duke and I are not going to make next week's show.
47:51
Heartbreak in the 8 OA. We're going to be we're going to
47:55
date. I got us some free tickets to.
47:59
Circus. The clowns.
48:01
Janet Jackson. Yeah.
48:05
We're going to the Janet Jackson concert and.
48:07
In our. Stead well, we're what's that
48:10
soldier song she does when she dressed like a who's?
48:13
Appointing me doing. That isn't that Rhythm Nation.
48:18
No, we're, we're jamming. Up to Rhythm Nation, Cosmic Hobo
48:22

48:24
What's that? Very good.
48:28
Oh OK, cool, have fun. Let me do.
48:32
Jesus Christ love you too, Bill. Bill, we all love you.
48:34
Bill, you're. Being oh, I forgot to.
48:35
Amuse you, whatever. We love an announcement little.
48:39
Announcement. That's my.
48:42
Well, cosmic Cobo, best of luck. Next week, the show is yours.
48:46
Anything. It's going to suck so bad.
48:49
Just so sorry it's going to be so bad.
48:52
You know what? You're always.
48:53
Going to ask you to be my Co host.
48:55
Yeah, I know. That's how it's going to be so
48:57
bad because I'm going to be there.
49:00
Oh. Well, Speaking of people.
49:02
Who are here? Lord Nubis.
49:03
Is during the couch Lord Nubis? Lord Nubis, do you know about
49:07
the hand raising rule? I do know about the hand raising
49:11
rule however I was driving and currently right now I'm charging
49:14
my car so you know. My God, I'm sorry.
49:18
But you're on the way home. You didn't have enough juice, so
49:21
you had to pull over and charge. No, I, I, I have enough.
49:26
I just figured I'd stop by and, and relax for a minute.
49:29
It's actually, you know, it's actually kind of nice being able
49:34
to just like actually have a reason to stop throughout your
49:36
day and take 20 minutes a day, you know, so it's nice.
49:41
Well, if you need 20 minutes, you just jump on into Star
49:43
Citizen. You'll only have 20 minutes to
49:46
spare every. Few.
49:47
Only if it was optimized where you could just, you know, go in
49:49
on your phone. Only phones.
49:53
But do you, do you ever feel like Anubis is here to give us
49:56
all like some some really important life lessons?
49:59
I feel like he teaches something every time he calls in and and
50:05
none of us listen. No, no, no.
50:08
I mean, I, I, I, I, I can lead a horse to water, but I can't
50:12
stuff their head down into the water because they're a giant
50:14
horse and they'll probably kick me.
50:17
Fair that well. If they're kicking, I mean, the
50:21
first problem would be that that's not the horse's head.
50:25
Yes, it is. You're standing at the wrong
50:28
ends. I'm aware with and I'm out.
50:32
I know what I'm about young man. Anubis do.
50:37
Do you have a quality of life wish wish list item?
50:42
Yeah. I have, I have AI have like
50:47
quite a few, but I would say first and foremost now, I mean,
50:53
we, we can already see where they're going with a lot of
50:55
things, but first and foremost is social tools.
51:01
Damn right. You know, I, I, I'm playing in
51:04
MMO and I have no clue who is standing 3 feet in front of me,
51:08
you know, and they're dancing and they're swiveling all over
51:11
the floor and then they're stripping down and then asking
51:14
me to mount them and I have no clue who they are because
51:17
there's no social tools. Duke, let's invite them to the
51:20
Janet Jackson Show. Whatever they are, they sound
51:25
like a good time. You know what?
51:28
Go to go to go to Everest Harbor.
51:30
They're there. You know you'll you'll see them.
51:34
OK. All right, very.
51:35
Good, so that Lord newbies every pretty much everybody has said
51:38
social tools. Bill and I are on the controller
51:40
team. What?
51:43
What there's? Another one.
51:45
Yeah. It's like. 2.
51:50
Dozens of what else? I know we're making T-shirts.
51:55
Well, aside from the social tools, what else you got?
52:04
I mean, obviously we know they're doing bases.
52:07
I would love bases, customizable, you know, spaces
52:09
to go back home every single day, be able to keep things in
52:14
storage without, you know, and put them on display, things like
52:17
that. I mean, a lot of this game is,
52:20
is is interacting with others and being able to show things
52:23
off. I, I think when they started
52:26
doing that in hangers, it was, it kind of changed things
52:30
because it gave people a reason to hang out.
52:32
You know, like, hey, come over to my hanger, take a look at my
52:34
shit. Like, wow, you got the same
52:36
thing everybody else does. I'm like, yeah, isn't it cool?
52:38
I'm like, yeah, it is 'cause they arranged it really well and
52:42
it does look cool, honestly. I mean, it, it doesn't
52:45
necessarily need to be like everything has to be unique, but
52:47
at least at least it's yours, you know, And I think more of
52:50
that, more of building an actual life in the game is, is is where
52:56
I want to see it going rather than it just being, you know,
52:59
currently what it is like a theme park, arcade, arcade kind
53:02
of kind of system at the moment. So yeah.
53:10
In other words, Star Wars Galaxies.
53:13
Every time. Every time I think, I think
53:16
we've got somebody else that wants to come up to the couch.
53:18
So this this. Yeah, we can come.
53:19
Up here we we can, we can pull. Was I that boring?
53:22
You want to get me off that clip?
53:23
No, no, no, no, no, no. I don't.
53:25
I don't. I don't, I don't, I don't but.
53:26
I'm we we've we've received warnings about Star Wars
53:30
Galaxies. Cease and desist.
53:32
No more talking about Star Wars. Doubt you?
53:34
Mean from Sony Online Entertainment, Mr. Smedley
53:37
himself trying to interfere once more with the glory and power
53:41
that was Star Wars Galaxies. Yes.
53:45
No, it got bought out. Linda McMahon bought it.
53:49
Oh God. Wow.
53:50
Yeah, yeah, she's going to turn it into a a WWE thing and it's
53:54
going to be Admiral Akbar, like high chairing Padme.
53:59
What you're gonna? Get You're gonna have to take
54:01
all your missions from Dana White.
54:03
Guess they call. You all.
54:11
Right, We have a guy down here with his with his hand up.
54:14
Yeah, he's a goose. You know him you love.
54:16
It's veritable, Hatter. Veritable.
54:20
What's your quality of life wish list and why is controller
54:23
support on it? Look, I, I, I'm gonna be honest.
54:28
I have no problem with people who want controller support.
54:30
Whatever your lifestyle choices are, feel free to engage in
54:34
them. That's fine.
54:36
You. Know I.
54:38
Don't want to force it upon me, no.
54:42
No I controller support is cool, I hope someday they actually
54:45
implement it. I don't use a controller but
54:47
there are plenty of my friend. Like I've played Warframe for
54:49
years so I have plenty of friends who are like controllers
54:52
for life and I want to get them to play this game as well.
54:55
But it is what it is, a couple of air.
55:01
Space Ninja. Yeah, duh.
55:04
Don't you see how I like how I always end up with the invisible
55:08
undersuit so I can like do outfits and stuff?
55:11
That is Warframe as a game is outfits.
55:13
I'm I'm just plugging that over. Here, you're one of those.
55:16
Yes, obviously. Fashion Frame.
55:19
Fashion frames the whole day, every day.
55:22
He stands around the junctions. Doing modes.
55:27
Look, social area is just sitting there dancing, doing the
55:29
worm. The the real end game combat is
55:33
voguing and you can't tell me otherwise.
55:37
No it. Looks maxing.
55:40
Please no. Dear God.
55:42
Wait, wasn't that clavicular guy?
55:43
Isn't he hospitalized? Didn't he like end up overdosing
55:46
or something? Alright, he's looking for
55:48
somebody else to run. Over or maybe, but Long story
55:53
short, the everyone's been talking about social tools.
55:55
Obviously that's that's super high in the list.
55:57
It's the major thing that we we probably need.
56:01
The thing that always stands out to me is I really just want them
56:04
to fix ground vehicles to some way or another because they're
56:08
the way they all over the place it.
56:11
Kills me because. I'm like, I want ground vehicles
56:13
to be cool. I want there to be like ground
56:15
vehicle game so that I am not, you know, I like I enjoy flying
56:18
ships. I all over the place.
56:20
If I didn't enjoy it, I wouldn't play this game.
56:23
But like there's a good part of this game that also should be
56:26
like ground combat or even just adventuring or running around
56:30
and shit like that. I don't feel like we've got a
56:33
good handle on that right now. I think this is a.
56:37
Comment This is this is the bit that we've overlooked the whole
56:41
show hover the hover quads, the hover vehicles and you're always
56:45
crashing them and. Like like why is there even an
56:48
an option in arena commander to do like hover races or the OR
56:52
the tank battles? Just all that you're like, no.
56:55
No, I like it feels, again, like you're I'm having a tank battle
56:59
in Antarctica and I don't have treads, but it just feels.
57:05
Bad. It does.
57:07
Like that, it's just bad. It's it's very awkward feeling
57:12
and I hate it because I love a lot of the vehicle designs that
57:14
they've got. I think they're cool and I want
57:17
to I want to poke around in them in ways that aren't just me
57:20
using them as like loot goblin vehicles or respawn points.
57:25
Anyway, that that's kind of the main one.
57:28
Obviously 2 wickets point about having being able to like have
57:35
waypoints and other stuff like that.
57:36
Obviously they're going to need to do that eventually.
57:38
But I think that's, that's part of the entire surveyor thing
57:42
that they're going to do eventually.
57:44
Because remember, you have to be able to like one of the
57:46
discussions they had on being a surveyor was like, you go out,
57:50
you survey, you find high quality or, or useful materials,
57:55
and then you, you hoard that data and you sell it.
58:01
So at some point they're going to need to be able to figure out
58:03
like how to actually make that work.
58:06
But I, I think that's going to be, that question is going to be
58:09
when they start putting like surveying and game as a
58:11
profession. I don't know, I'll tell you I
58:16
went hand mining a lot the last week and does some of my hand
58:21
mining footage on this episode. I'm I'm watching it right now.
58:25
And the the I had a lot of fun. Everybody complaints about the
58:30
hand mining and I'm bringing up because it felt like I was kind
58:33
of surveying and exploring and there wasn't much to see or do.
58:37
But I kept thinking like, dude, I wish I could like Ping.
58:40
I wish I could have like have some kind of like map or
58:43
something to like, you know, I wish as I was walking through
58:47
The Cave, you see like the map up there.
58:49
Yeah. I just wish there was something
58:50
more interactive about the map or something with it.
58:53
Yeah. I was doing the collections
58:58
mission for Rayari for the last week because I hate myself and
59:03
want to do some of the Armandi missions with and get some of
59:06
those blueprints. And like I kept running across
59:11
the high quality materials and other things and I'm like, I
59:13
have no need for, you know, what was it?
59:17
I found like a 900 quality channel light, which I I grabbed
59:20
some of just because, but like I could have sold that information
59:25
to someone. It would have been cool.
59:29
Stuff like that. Eventually they're going to have
59:31
to do that though, because like that's that's going to be a way
59:36
to make money in game. You know you they have ships
59:39
designed for it already. Actually, that reminds me like
59:43
we have a whole series of science ships.
59:47
I haven't heard anything about those in a long while.
59:50
Oh, that's dead, dude. Really.
59:52
That is doornails. There's nothing going on there.
59:56
Fuck. I mean, I I think it's probably
59:59
like the very bottom of their list for.
1:00:02
Sure. Oh no, I'm sure it is.
1:00:04
It's low endeavour, my sweet. Yeah, I mean the what's the Misc
1:00:11
1? The Reliant, the Reliant series.
1:00:14
Yeah, the. Reliance Reliant ship, love the
1:00:16
Reliant series. Such a good ship.
1:00:18
But like science, right like that that could be that should
1:00:22
be end game stuff like science research, like, you know,
1:00:25
finding anomalies and and doing like, you know, some sort of
1:00:29
game plates or research them or something like that could be
1:00:33
like how new blueprints are discovered.
1:00:36
Sure, like we. Can add new blueprints and they
1:00:40
can just keep adding new blueprints.
1:00:42
Yeah. Through that, yeah.
1:00:46
So I know something you know. I I don't know, I feel like
1:00:51
there's there's science gameplay that that could be figured out
1:00:56
at not a like full end game level, but that, like you said,
1:01:01
it's bottom of the barrel right now.
1:01:03
As much as I want it to be, as much as my desire, my personal
1:01:05
desires in this game or like give me weird non combat
1:01:08
gameplay that I can like poke around with.
1:01:12
I don't think that's going to be high on the list outside of like
1:01:16
industry and shooting things. Yeah, that's never going to
1:01:19
happen. They'll they'll give you some
1:01:20
science, but you have to kill 50 guys in order to do the science,
1:01:25
right? And then the science is going to
1:01:26
be murdering an animal or something.
1:01:29
Do you know? To be fair, that is what science
1:01:32
is. I mean, it's, it's a lot of.
1:01:35
History, medical science, A lot of people die.
1:01:40
It's true. It's.
1:01:41
Just bodies and bodies and bodies for like 200 years.
1:01:46
I think there's a little more to it than that, but yeah, OK.
1:01:50
Well, I mean, the more bodies you.
1:01:51
Get you got to yeah, the more bodies the better you got to
1:01:53
take notes, but otherwise it's otherwise it's nice.
1:01:58
Spot on. I do.
1:02:00
If you're not taking notes, it's not science then then you're
1:02:02
just killing people. Yeah, no, the people are already
1:02:07
dead when I get to them. So that's it?
1:02:08
That's it's still science. Oh, OK.
1:02:11
Yeah. That's science then?
1:02:12
Yeah. That's that's archaeology.
1:02:14
They've been dead for a while. Science brought to you by Cruz
1:02:18
Lux. Cruz Lux, the number one fuel
1:02:20
for scientists. Here's one of a scientist
1:02:24
drinks. Cruz Lux.
1:02:25
I'm a scientist and sometimes my brain's not doing good.
1:02:30
I drink Cruz Lux and go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
1:02:34
I'm gonna eat this scientist now.
1:02:38
That's Cruise. Scientist, while you run Cruise
1:02:40
lux now I can give no fucks and eat you.
1:02:45
As a scientist I have been drinking cruise lux all through
1:02:49
this research projects and I can promise you it has increased my
1:02:51
productivity by at least 30% and that is not the slam in the
1:02:55
cruise Lux. That is slamless cruise Lux.
1:03:01
Just like there is no suing with Cruise Lux.
1:03:04
You want to stay up for four days straight?
1:03:06
Cruise Lux. Very good, very good, very good.
1:03:12
All right, everybody all right, everybody.
1:03:13
We're we're we're coming, we're winding down here.
1:03:16
We're we're coming to the end, but we're not we're not quite
1:03:18
over yet look, guys, this patch has been it's it's been
1:03:23
victorious the past few patches. We've we've had we've had a
1:03:28
pretty good. You know the pool tables don't
1:03:30
work, but it's pretty good. Yeah, they will get pool.
1:03:35
Tables and they will break everything.
1:03:38
Never going to happen. There are pool tables and You
1:03:41
Can Dance on them, so I say that's success.
1:03:44
They've worked. That's what their purpose is.
1:03:47
Now I'm I'm prefacing that things have been pretty good
1:03:51
because I'm about to RIP shit apart.
1:03:55
John crew homie. Reposted on spectrum when people
1:04:01
were like, so when are the rest of the lamps coming in?
1:04:04
The lamps is the the night vision stuff.
1:04:07
And he was like he and he waffled and he was like, well,
1:04:12
you know, not all ships designed the same way.
1:04:15
And it makes me feel like in terms of the old ships, like
1:04:24
we're not getting lamps on older ships for like a while.
1:04:27
And that includes the Zeus. We're not even getting lamps on
1:04:30
new ships. Are you serious?
1:04:35
Well, yeah, what? What was?
1:04:39
The Hermes doesn't have a lamp, I don't think.
1:04:41
Yeah, the Hermes doesn't have it.
1:04:43
Something something else that just came out didn't have it.
1:04:45
And I was like, really? Did the Hermes just?
1:04:47
Didn't get out. You didn't get it.
1:04:51
No, it look it's just like what? Like just finish the thing.
1:04:56
It's good, many layups. That easy, just finish it.
1:04:59
Just finish the I I understand it may be more difficult, but
1:05:02
like you made it, it says new. Put it in, put the feature in.
1:05:07
I don't care if it takes like 12 months, just do it.
1:05:10
Yeah, if that means oh. You put all the squadron guys on
1:05:13
it, figure it out. Yes, honestly, yeah.
1:05:17
Put all the squadron guys on it. You have thousands of employees,
1:05:22
you know. So you want you, you want me to
1:05:24
put like, Phillip, the guy you know, a nighttime security
1:05:27
guard. You want to put him on it.
1:05:29
Yeah, you can tell us what color to use.
1:05:32
I just feel it doesn't it doesn't.
1:05:33
It feels like it just is a big WTF man.
1:05:38
It's like you put this in, just finish it.
1:05:41
We can't you're you can't half finished.
1:05:45
Things are not cool anymore. We're over that.
1:05:50
Been there, done that. Been there, done that, put the
1:05:53
lamps in. I'm in my Zeus and I can't see.
1:05:56
And you can't tell me that I'm going to see soon.
1:05:58
Oh. Come on, that's a bummer.
1:06:01
I was so excited. And then when I tried to use it
1:06:03
in the Hermes, it didn't work. I was like, Oh well, that's fun.
1:06:06
Meanwhile, I'm flying around in a Cutty red right now and it has
1:06:10
lamp, but the lamp is unusable. Of course it's a cuddy.
1:06:15
I mean, that's people's. I didn't.
1:06:17
Yeah, everybody's. Fingers shot, but yeah, that
1:06:18
makes sense. It just made the whole screen
1:06:22
fucking bright yellowy orange. Yeah, I can't see anything.
1:06:26
Everything is just bright orange.
1:06:28
I'm. Back to Are you in a light?
1:06:30
Zone. No, it's nighttime.
1:06:33
It's nighttime, bro. It doesn't give you a readout on
1:06:36
the like on the the ground floor, it just sort of like
1:06:40
increases the contrast. Yeah.
1:06:43
OK, though it doesn't have it. Sort of ish like it's it's
1:06:47
better than nothing in in real dark, but it's still not great.
1:06:53
Yeah. Well, my big quality of life
1:06:55
thing other than controllers is when you put in a quality of
1:06:58
life fix, put it in for everything.
1:07:03
Equality. E.
1:07:05
Just fix everything. All work the right way.
1:07:09
Just do the right thing. Just do the right.
1:07:12
Do it. Do the right thing.
1:07:13
Just do it. Yeah.
1:07:15
But other than that, other than that, I had a really fun time
1:07:17
this week going around mining rocks.
1:07:19
It was great. I still have not crafted
1:07:23
anything. I haven't cropped anything
1:07:26
either. I'm doing the missions.
1:07:28
I'm just doing mission Rep. Yep.
1:07:30
Crafted. Remember, we're we, we have, we
1:07:33
have gear recipes slash blueprints, we have org to make.
1:07:39
All you have to do is ask. Yeah, but you know that that's
1:07:41
not fun. Sure it is.
1:07:44
Like I, I like being part. Of it.
1:07:45
That's the whole reason you're a Guild, yeah?
1:07:48
No, it's not. That's that's not the reason I'm
1:07:50
here. See if if, if, if you would have
1:07:52
paid attention today. If you're you're into mining and
1:07:55
you're into gathering. Earlier today I found a big rock
1:07:58
and needed help. And you know, the usual
1:08:01
suspects, they'd never show up. Yeah, I'm, I'm not good for
1:08:05
that. Yeah, obviously.
1:08:08
I'm here for the vibes. I'm I'm not here to help people
1:08:11
or or to or to have people build stuff for me.
1:08:15
I'm just here for. The vibes, I'm just here to
1:08:16
look. I'm just here to look cool.
1:08:18
Yeah, I. Don't know Murphy?
1:08:20
Gave that. Sweet Guild uniform and I, I
1:08:23
feel fancy. Yeah, I don't know what's on top
1:08:28
of it. All right, did we miss anything
1:08:34
this week? Oh, I just killed a cop.
1:08:39
Damn it. Damn it.
1:08:41
What? Will.
1:08:42
There you go. That's what you get for being.
1:08:44
Helpful. You're just a pariah.
1:08:48
Guess who's going to prison with whose cop, though?
1:08:52
Whose cop was it? Hurston, that was done.
1:08:56
I mean, of course, that's why. That's why I killed him.
1:09:00
I see the Hurston uniforms and I just start shooting.
1:09:03
Can't help. Yeah.
1:09:04
I get it. Well, that's.
1:09:08
Against Law and Order, 2026. Oh, now they're shooting my
1:09:12
ship. Yeah, they're shooting the ship.
1:09:15
There it goes. Well.
1:09:15
That's about it here. Comes the bounty police.
1:09:19
Yeah. All right.
1:09:21
We're going to go. Backwards here.
1:09:23
Last is first. That means Lord Anubis, my love,
1:09:29
Lord Nubis is probably driving. You know what?
1:09:31
We're not going to blame him. We're not going to blame him.
1:09:34
We'll start with perfect. I'm here.
1:09:36
I'm here. About that I was.
1:09:37
Connecting the battery. No, I left.
1:09:41
I left there a while back but awesome beer.
1:09:48
No no I haven't in a while but I work next to two of them now.
1:09:52
They open 2 near me. So you know, next time you're
1:09:57
out here, we'll we'll we'll we'll, that's all.
1:09:59
We'll hit up nothing else. I could.
1:10:01
I could eat there every day 100%.
1:10:04
Yeah, it's that good. Yeah, yeah, no qualms.
1:10:08
Lord, need this. Anything you want to say?
1:10:12
CIG, Chris Roberts are the people on the.
1:10:17
Internet CIG and Chris Roberts, you are doing a good job, which
1:10:21
is, you know, breath of fresh air to say compared to the last
1:10:26
couple years where, you know, it's like we were making
1:10:29
improvements, but it was just it, it just wasn't quite making
1:10:34
the mark for, you know, the experience.
1:10:36
And it was and it was glitchy. But now, I mean, I could really
1:10:40
feel this happening. And so it's exciting time to be
1:10:43
a Star Citizen player. So thank you.
1:10:47
Special note to Chris Roberts, you know, again, y'all have a
1:10:54
y'all have a protective order in place.
1:10:56
So if someone happens to mention your wife, then you know what to
1:11:01
do. You know there are many.
1:11:04
This is a federal case now, so you can call the FBI and they'll
1:11:09
be able to help you out just in case.
1:11:11
That's a tip the 5th. Character hasn't been great yet
1:11:15
lately on convictions we. Might have been Bill No Hatter
1:11:25
veritable Hatter, Hatter, Baby Hatter, Hatter Hatter.
1:11:31
Anything you want to say, CIG, Chris Roberts or the people on
1:11:33
the Internet. Oh gosh, I don't know.
1:11:37
Just let me know when Citizen Con is please.
1:11:40
I'd like to make some. Oh dude.
1:11:42
Because it's like the first year that I might have time to go.
1:11:47
But yeah, I'm nodding. I'm nodding yes.
1:11:49
You didn't hear it, but I'm nodding yes.
1:11:51
Sure. My hands are up.
1:11:54
There you go. Praise, praise be perfect Bill,
1:11:57
perfect Bill. Anything you want to say to CIG?
1:11:59
Chris Roberts of the People on Your Net.
1:12:01
Yeah, CIG, come on. It's Squadron 42.
1:12:05
Let's get it out. Let's go.
1:12:06
I want to play it. Everybody else out there, just
1:12:10
do the right thing. Do the right thing.
1:12:14
Perfect. All right.
1:12:16
Love it every week he fucking ends just fucking hits me in the
1:12:20
field. I'm I'm tearing up.
1:12:21
I can't I can't talk anymore. Wicca.
1:12:23
Anything you want to say to CIG? Chris Roberts to the people on
1:12:25
Internet. Not really, except for the fact
1:12:28
that I've never done anything wrong and there's no FBI in
1:12:33
Stanton. Thank you.
1:12:36
One odd thing to say. Well, that's.
1:12:40
That's we're not, I think to say Melania, nobody was acting.
1:12:46
Nice hand. Never done the wrong thing.
1:12:52
Do the right thing. Perfect.
1:12:57
No, you're done. You're done.
1:12:59
You're done. Anubis.
1:13:00
Anubis. Your body's malfunctioning.
1:13:03
No, no, no, this car. We don't need to.
1:13:06
I mean we. Forgot the battery we.
1:13:08
Forgot to plug in. Nope.
1:13:11
Cosmic Hub. Anything you want to say to CIG?
1:13:13
Chris Roberts of the People on the.
1:13:16
Internet to CIG, How about we get that 4.8 evacati to the
1:13:23
people on the Internet? If you're in the DC area,
1:13:27
there's a Bar Citizen on Saturday.
1:13:30
Saturday Bar Citizen, check it out.
1:13:32
Go to the bar city. Wait, where do where do they
1:13:34
find that? The DC bar set, Discord, our
1:13:40
spectrum, We're on spectrum, we're on Discord.
1:13:43
We're only really in those two places.
1:13:47
I get off spectrum. I mean I don't really get much
1:13:51
interaction from the spectrum post usually but.
1:13:54
Well, DC Bar Citizens, search it up, find the DC Bar Citizen
1:13:57
discord. Are there tickets available?
1:14:00
That's just the RSVP we're using, actually.
1:14:04
The International Bar Citizens Ticketing Air Quotes system,
1:14:10
it's more of an RSVP system because they set it up and I
1:14:15
figured we'd use it and this will probably.
1:14:17
Be the IG or is they some guy? They are an NGO actually.
1:14:22
Get out, they're tax exempt. Yeah, they're A3O1K like.
1:14:27
At the DC Star Star Citizen bar Citizen, can you confirm there
1:14:31
will be no Magic the Gathering? There will not be any Magic the
1:14:36
Gathering at this one. What about transparent pockets?
1:14:41
Sleeves. Transparent pockets?
1:14:44
Will there be any of those transparent pockets floating?
1:14:47
Around I will not have any of my sleeves on me.
1:14:50
No magic, no bill. Fuck, man, fuck.
1:14:58
It's done well, Duke, we. Did it, We did it.
1:15:03
We did it once. Again.
1:15:06
Just you 2. Duke and Jar Jar to Bernie
1:15:08
forever. We persevered.
1:15:11
Into the sunset. All on our own.
1:15:13
For 1000 years. 1000 years. 1000 years ago helping comes thousand
1:15:22
years. All right.
1:15:23
Well, Duke, you know what to do. I'm not, I'm not playing this
1:15:27
out, not doing it. No, that's your whole thing.
1:15:31
That's. That's not my whole thing.
1:15:33
That's been, Yep. Yeah, that's actually that's
1:15:37
your only responsibility. I, I have other
1:15:40
responsibilities. I, I, you know, I messaged you
1:15:42
because you were, you were nowhere to be seen, couldn't
1:15:44
find you. That's true.
1:15:47
That's true. That's true.
1:15:48
I'll. Tell this is your, this is your,
1:15:50
this is your main thing.
