CIG have lifted the NDA for todays test- so here is the jump from Pyro to Stanton! I'm in a hotel on my laptop- so sorry for the lower quality and iffy performance!
As with most things in star citizen, they were SO close to this being actually good.. like a slightly overcooked steak, it’s more infuriating because of just how close they were
@@sigmamale6128 It's just to provide some semblance of interactivity while they stream out/in the star systems, basically an interactive loading screen
@Meister_Dwight better than a picture and a line of text with some in game lore while you wait on the spinning circle. Also you can 100% drop out at any point, either by screwing up the flight or onboard crew messing with power or jump drives while in use. So close ish
@@sigmamale6128also did you forget the jump points have a risk factor? Fail the jump and you can get launched out somewhere randomly far out in space and hope you have enough fuel to get back.
The 1st time i jumped - i understood why SaltEMike collapsed back in his chair with a smile and said 'i just jumped to another star system'. - Its an ordeal !... xd its like omfg - is it over!!?!. So well done. You Feel like you travelled to another star system and you are huffing and puffing - on the other side xd
I just posted something similar to Mastodon. "My personal opinion (pilotside ONLY) I am not sure I want to experience that, EVER. Holy shit that looks unfun to pilot through. So, I think I like it so far. It shouldn't be a walk in the park but require skill."
@@nixie2462I remember their original idea was for known jump points to be "mapped" and have some sort of auto pilot while discovered ones would have to be flown through manually. i imagine that idea has been changed/scrapped since last mentioned
@@plinyvicgames Discovered jump points are still going to be a thing - but 1st they are going to build the static ones and get server meshing up and running
That was a pretty decent jump! Even after jumping back and forth 1/2 dozen times on the playtest a couple days ago, I still end up fumbling around and hitting every single darn pillar within the wormhole. SRV was the only one that could manage acceptably.
@@tenpoundfortytwo I Hope they make it even more difficult. let there be demand for people in the game who are good at a specific part, that's what real space would be. you could hire other players who can get you through, and those players get to capitalise on their skills. It would actually be realistic and that's the whole point of Star Citizen, right?
Actually going through the worm hole looks awesome, but I really wish they kept the gates in. I dont know why they insist that it doesnt align with the lore. The UEE having gates around major jump points to open and close them and regulate things makes total sense to me. Not to mention the gates just look sick
As much as I like gates (because I grew up with StarGate) needing gates sort of invalidates the option of finding alternate routes or uncharted jump points. I mean, you could do both, but then it becomes sort of a gimmick, it's more consistent nedding OR not needing them but not both, and NOT having gates means you can have anything "anywhere".
The hull popping and cracking is perfect this is so fucking perfect Thankyou cig for making my dream of piloting space come true even if it is just through a screen 9-10 astronauts never get to see space
This is exactly as I imagined from the first version of this they demo'd almost 8 years or so ago. Ecstatic to finally see this come to us in-game. Way better than I imagined. Great transit and seems a little stressful too so can only imagine how nifty we'll need to be as pilots to navitgate the more turbulant worm holes in other systems
I like the idea of the risk of using the Wormhole and also that it may require some level of skills to go through. I like this idea of not using it like an elevator and thats it, you are done. The risk make you think twice if it is worth it or not, and also makes it more real in the fact of its a space thing! not human made
they explained that ships with more weight will be bounced around way less than more agile smaller ships. so that evens out. in other words, the experience will be less unstable and wobbly in a big freighter.
Holy sh1t man need a God Damn 4k projector ! The sounds of the fuselage, the deep bass reverberating in pulses this is TOO GOOD, it gave me LSD flashback stunning.
@@tenpoundfortytwo it's looking good though. I have the feeling that it's not gonna be that simple to go through for a beginner... At least kind of a "challenge" to go from a system to another
So the jump begins at about 1:30, but if you include all the spooling and aligning and stuff, it's closer to 1:00. Then it finishes at around 4:20. That's around 3 minutes of just flying through a funnel. Reminds me of Tempest, the arcade game from 1981. Are we sure this isn't just a flashy loading screen? 3 minutes seems excessive.
Think about how much time it sometimes takes to load into a system and then consider that a new system NEEDS to be loaded in by the time you exit the jump point. High entity counts ain't cheap. 😂
That stall at the beginning messed me up twice when I tried. I hit the side of the tunnel and punched out into deep space. They need to make that part a lot smoother.
Oh I like that it drops you out good ways away from the actual jump point. Gonna make blockading anything inbound a hassle, leaving is a different matter clearly. Looks great and can't wait to see what they do next.
I do not usually care about "spoilers" for Star Citizen. But after watching 30 seconds of this video I had to stop myself. This is one that I want to experience first hand for the first time.
I understand why they went with the random hole in the middle of the space, but I think a giant stargate gate would be way cooler. The way it was before they changed it.
I think that the idea is for most people to spend most of their time inside one star system, if not one planetary system (a planet and it's moons). Unless you're a long-haul freighter pilot or explorer, most people aren't going to be jumping all the time.
It seems like you're playing a very impressive and visually pleasing 3 minute loading screen minigame. That's not necessarily bad though. It properly conveys the idea of the systems being some distance away from eachother. You're incentivized to stay within a system unless you're absolutely certain that you want to go to another one. I just hope they don't make it so difficult that it just drains your attention span.
It looks that way, but I don't think the game is actually loading anything during that time. Since everything streams in real-time, they could have made the transition instantaneous (go in hole, exit on other side) but wanted to have an actual gameplay element to jumping.
@@mayoluck When the first jump point is in the form of a graybox, it is said that since entering it has been in the pyro? is this just an additional gamplay to make it seem that the pyro is far away?
Larger ships are going to have an issue flying through those space structures, I hope they'll be able to better optimize this. I hope it won't be too tough on the pc's too.
I've never like the mini-game idea and the graphics of the Jumpoints and looks like I'll never will. It looks more like I'm moving down in someones throat :D To me we should not control the ship and observe the beautiful graphics around us. Interstellar's wormhole was perfect for example IMO. But it's really nice to see that finally CIG pulled this milestone, kudos the team.
Feels like you’re jumping through hell. The colors, creaking of the ship, the alarm. Wonder if we’ll see some sort of monster or something that could mess with us
Absolutely gorgeous and erie made. Brilliant, maybe a little Long, but overall they nailed it. That beeing said, this confirmed for me, that the clip they showed wasnt Nyx, but simply the jump to Stanton from Pyro. I always wandered how anyone would dedudct "blue has to be Nyx" when stantons colors are blue...
I love the sounds design... But what happened to the wormhole look? Now they look like movie-style black holes from the 90's. Very unappealing compared to the Interstellar-style wormhole bubble, seeming to warp in shape the closer you got to it. Now it's like other games where they have "gateways," and I was really excited to have a different look for this. The interior looks amazing, but I feel like they could make it bigger. I'm not familiar with the sizes, so unless this one is supposed to be a particularly small one, I'm a bit worried about how easy it seems to hit the walls.
Me too it looks stressful hectic, but exhilarating. Jumping to system should be something you don’t do that often and met with a certain matter considering people usually just walk away when they’re quantum jumping a couple minutes and a wormhole should keep people under their seats.
Brother, is it just me or is the jump now far easier? Did it yesterday with my Polaris and it was fairly easy. Then again I use HOSAS and don’t have to over correct so much
Hmm, so you are thrown out a fair distance from the approach avenue at the Stanton end of the Jump Point!! What then is the point of a defensible 'avenue' if it's not capable of defending arrivals as well as departures??
Supposedly, hitting the walls or columns in the tunnel will cause distortion damage (the same as an EMP). That damage will build up over time with more collisions, eventually dumping your ship out at a random location in either your starting system or the destination one (depending on how far you made it into the tunnel. I saw one guy get yeeted to the far side of the system he started in after a failure.
This stutters on the gameplay still gives me the shivers i really dont understand how come there are many high res multiplayer games out there that preforms better then this hundred year beta dont get me wrong i would love to play it as i imagine but man this game is breaking me
in the past they have said it was going to be longer than this...they also said you would only have to navigate the first minute or so before it auto locks and it takes over
@@asaraphym802 Oh yeah, I forgot about the initial "lock in" stage. Well, as with anything it's still early and it'll prolly change 50 more times before they're done with it. Fingers crossed it's as compressed as it can be without trivializing the journey.
I personally do not like it...tbh....looks good....but also looks like added stress. I never like the mobile phone running games era....and this feels like that. That was a twitchy ship in the grand scheme of things...what would a jump point that lets bengal carriers move around look like? It would have to be massive and crazy smooth...or I guess...bigger ships are going to have to handle much more like fighters....

Try to use Moonlight. And the game session could be recorded by 'shadowplay' on the host.
This is what I like to see!!

Stop being disingenuous.
You damn well know that even on high end systems, it's a slideshow.
The alarm sounds like someone with a panic attack while breathing through a harmonica.
Spot on and hilarious
Bruh lmfaoo.😂😂 now I can't unhear thaaat hahaha
LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Now I won't be able to unsee that.

Yeah they nailed the sound design and visuals. Absolute Cinema!
It looks pretty garbage to me. Having to dodge crap in the wormhole also is just pointless and stupid.

Lol, the clown horn sound is hilarious.
Yeah-at least it's a deterrent not to hit the walls or the string things!
It’s warning you not to become a clown and hit the wall.
Man this jump point looks absolutely epic!

@@Satvik_903I have been saying this for ages!
Actually going through the worm hole looks awesome, but I really wish they kept the gates in. I dont know why they insist that it doesnt align with the lore. The UEE having gates around major jump points to open and close them and regulate things makes total sense to me. Not to mention the gates just look sick
As much as I like gates (because I grew up with StarGate) needing gates sort of invalidates the option of finding alternate routes or uncharted jump points. I mean, you could do both, but then it becomes sort of a gimmick, it's more consistent nedding OR not needing them but not both, and NOT having gates means you can have anything "anywhere".
@@nixie2462 No it doesn't. It just means the jump points with gates are regulated and stabilized

That seems awfully tight considering you're flying a hornet... Kinda worried what flying something even one size-class bigger is going to be like.
maybe it is that small-medium-large portal size they talked about years ago....
different jump point gate sizes, smaller ships are meant to get around much easier than caps.
In the first Evo test I made it through in a freelancer max- but it's harder. Not sure how easy something like an 890 would be!
@@tenpoundfortytwo yeesh, or a fully loaded Hull C...

It is certainly a loading screen; an interactive one, obviously.
Seeing how you can fail it, it's a bit more than that.
Tempest... wow. That was fun. Aaand we just dated ourselves lol
Think about how much time it sometimes takes to load into a system and then consider that a new system NEEDS to be loaded in by the time you exit the jump point. High entity counts ain't cheap. 😂
Reminds me of that wormhole scene in interstellar, of course without the lagging

Could well be better on a better machine!

To me the alarm sounds a lot like the alarm onboard The Nostromo from Alien. (The first Alien movie by Ridley Scott - Nice sound 😊)
This is exactly how it should be. Especially the tone it took. Straight heart attack for four minutes.
looks to be fun a few times.. and then not so much. ty for sharing

Just recorded it 15 minutes before the video went up in the hotel! Laptop is coming in handy! Thanks- really looking forward to the weekend!
Thank you for not swapping to 3rd-person camera every 5 seconds like most people lol.
Not gonna lie... that event horizon effect is amazing.
Reminds me of Far Scape wormhole travel.
Visuals: Cinema quality.
Sound: Cinema quality.
Alarm: 1910 Ford, please change that! please!
I thought the wormhole looked cool on Stanton's side
On Pyro's side its awesome!
Very Dr Who Meets Deep Space Nine!
if it was hard to get through with a fighter how the hell would you do that in a Carrack ? or Polaris
Or any of the Idris class or Javelin class.
Maybe larger jump drives make for bigger, more stable, wormhole tunnels?
Amazing!
Do you think would be smoother experience in live server?
I know there's lag spikes here and there but it can be fix, the visual and audio design overwhelms that.
man looks good but at the same time like a lot of stress
I get it but maybe that makes you have a reason to get ferried there!
That looks like it'll be a pain for bigger ships.

MORE IMPORTANT QUESTION :
Does a Drake ship can survive into this ? 😄
Wauw super smooth😂
So hitting the twisters in the tunnel has no effect?
It will cause the beeping and if you keep hitting enough/ the walls of the tunnel, eventually it will chuck you out of the jump miles from anywhere
probably has a hit count like 3 strikes and you're out.
Supposedly, hitting the walls or columns in the tunnel will cause distortion damage (the same as an EMP). That damage will build up over time with more collisions, eventually dumping your ship out at a random location in either your starting system or the destination one (depending on how far you made it into the tunnel.
