******Official Star Citizen / Squadron 42 Thread******

[FloppyPoppy]

Arknor, since you like to dip in here now and then, can you explain how you can win Star Citizen should (let's just play fantasy for a moment) it actually be released?

Serious question, keep hearing it's play 2 win but not actually aware of what there is to win..

Id say winning is subjective of personal goals. For example my goal is to have fun, kill humbug and am interested in making some money VIA mining. That is my Win. For someone else it could be completely different. And that's all i can come up with so yeah floppy out.

If the main man himself can't find the time to spend a few hours a week playing it and building a chacrater, then that says it all. I'll check back in 2019.

OCS has been moved to a new patch, 3.3.5, so not in this one but in this year, before 3.4.

What's OCS?

 

[humbug]

What's OCS?

Object Container Streaming.

Its critical for a large sandbox with no loading, having all objects of the map running on the client hardware all the time is too performance intensive when the map and its contents get to a certain size, so the map is broken up into containers which are then only streamed into your system when you interact with them.

Without OCS there is no Hurston Planet and its 4 moons, they are just too big to run on the clients system all at the same time.

What’s the latest on this? Still looking like 5 years away or will we at least get squadron 42 next year?

 

[FloppyPoppy]

will we at least get squadron 42 next year?

Doubt we will get sq42 next year but I’d say the year after is a “maybe”.

It’s honestly impossible to speculate on.

 

[wolfie138]

I assume S42 was all plotted etc, because they did all [?] the mocap/celebrity bits, so is there any definitive list of what's holding it up? being single-player i'm assuming none of the online issues should affect it?

How long have people been saying 'next year' and 'soon'? They really should be pushing to get S42 out and if this is successful it'll drive more interest in the online side of things.
