The Future of Gaming: StarEngine (4K)

Sure it looks pretty. But when you have 64gb of ram an i9 12900k an a 3080ti and the game utilizes about 35% of your gpu and runs at 35-45 fps you may as well be looking at a slidehshow.

@@maxferguson3021I get the same or more FPS with 32 gb of ram, an i7 and a 2080 ti? Although you do have to do lots of other stuff to get it to run optimally.

@@maxferguson3021 funny how I'm running a Ryzen 5 5600, 64GB DDR4, ASUS 5700XT OC TUFF 8GB and 1TB M.2 and i get 90-100fps with no issues... my kid has a system that is my old one, a Ryzen 7 2700, 32GB DDR4, 4GB Fury X (an obsolete GPU) and runs this on a 960GB M.2 and he gets 60fps again no issues so the game isn't perfect but it isn't always the reason why you aren't getting good frames

@@medotaku9360 Bug Smasher used to be a show they did featuring Mark Abent. He has now a lot in his place to keep doing so :D

⁠@@medotaku9360 You know, I personally love playing a game where I randomly fall to my death while flying my ship or get locked in a showroom model’s cockpit while surrounded by a dozen NPCs staring collectively off into space while they stand on the benches and chairs. I mean, compared to my brother’s experience with the game, mine works beautifully; he can’t even play his without it crashing to desktop.

@@medotaku9360 Then you need to look further as there is plenty out there since Citizen Con. This is simply a technology demo that neither represents Star Citizen nor Squadron 42.

I think you meant "at CIG". SC (Star Citzen) is not represented in this technology demo. It is literally just that: a technology demo of the engine, not associated with both games they are currently making.

*_"Some of you guys will never understand what it takes to deliver something like this"_* Oh yes we will, when our grand-kids come knocking on our door in the far future yelling "Grandpa, grandpa.... it's finally done".

@@Horizon-hj3yc low-hanging fruit tbh

Nope, I won’t ever understand what something like this takes to deliver. See though…that’s not my job. Many of you won’t understand what it takes to climb 50,60,70 + ft. up a palm tree in spikes & steel toes w/ a chainsaw clipped to you, just to trim a few fronds. But…that’s not your job. How it works: I do it, you get to enjoy the beautiful view. You don’t think about why, how, or what it takes to make the scenery beautiful, you just know that it is. As for games: They do it, I get to enjoy its beauty. I don’t know why, how, or what it takes to make a game amazing, I just know that it is.

its just handcrafted stuff. That's why there are only like 5 visitable locations XDD. What a travesty

@@radscorpion8 Did you watch the same video as I did? Did you read the captions? It's all procedural, that's the whole point

@@radscorpion8 There is much more than 5 locations to visit in the game. There is 4 main planets, that's 4 out of the 5 locations you supposedly say it has. This isn't even mentioning the moons of each planet, which all have their own unique locations to visit. So yes, there is much more than just 5 locations. Oh, and the video was also showcasing the procedural content that they wish to implement at some point. There's going to be a lot of cool places to see. Buy a starter bundle and play, you can do almost all of this stuff as shown in the video right now. The second half of the video has some new stuff, but 80-90% shown in the video is possible right now.

Try play it

No global illumination though :/ The scale of it is definitely impressive, and so is the artistry on display, but the individual technologies shown are nothing new per say.

@@nolram It's only just started on the programming end, so we will not see it for a year at least (my educated guess).

@@The1Mischief Everyone else is catching up and surpassing it. Nobody cares about continuous shots and the promise of something better years down the line. This might have been impressive ten years ago.

Well I always thought what if there was a game with interplanetary travel without any cuts (the only ones are in warps or like in elite dangerous no cuts) but I know this will be very resource intensive but there are ways by for example increasing the amount of meshes in relation to the distance. But ye nowadays it is easier to do search Sebastian lague solar system and watch his series it explains the light scattering used and explains how he made the game/project less resource intensive

Totally agree with you 😂

But could sy tell me, what's with the ps3-4 like graphics? Slowly we are entering the age of ps6 and they are going with this rubbish? Could they have made it ten times more realistic and a hundred times smaller? I hope they will crank it up hugely, because this is embarrasing and painfully ugly. With that much money and manhour this should look like movie level cgi. Why make infinite amount of planets, stations? Make it look more real for f's sake!

@@mrthegrievous I want shorter games with worse graphics, and I'm not kidding. Nobody cares about realistic mind-blowing graphics if the gameplay is shite

​​@@ElHeffJeffShort game? This is a MMO.

@@mrthegrievous not every game has to look like real life bro, a game can still be fun without realistic graphics. Plus this does not even look bad at all

yes

I think it’s mostly because in this game the travel is interplanetary so the scale of motion isn’t big enough to affect the stars.

Makes sense, I believe they said it was solar-system scale, not galaxy scale so this seems accurate @@matteogardenghi2291

@@matteogardenghi2291 its because its a game and no real physics simulation. we moved like 100 times the speed of light at peak. The speed of light is 299.999.999 m/s

@@christianboldrini7157 Exactly!!

@@christianboldrini7157 I personally would prefer something more akin to Elite Dangerous where you can constantly steer your ship during travel. I hated in NMS that all I had to do was hold down a button for 2 seconds and then do absolutely nothing for a minute until my ship arrived at the destination. Was super boring.

@@harrasika I disagree, in Star Citizen considering your location, you can spend almost 15 minutes just to arrive to another system. I think thats a good time to do other things or enjoy the view. If you have to steer your ship the game will force you to stare for a screen that nothing much happens for all that period of time.

@@christianboldrini7157 but what other things are there to do during that time? In Elite Dangerous I quite enjoy the 5-10 minutes it usually takes to travel between planets/stations since during that time I'm constantly engaged monitoring my speed or sometimes steering around objects. I haven't played Star Citizen, so maybe this is a nothingburger, but I feel it would get old quick to not have to do anything during travel.

HAH. Wishful thinking bud. They made a nice intro, where they could hide all of them. Are you going to keep believing it?

It’s still kinda buggy, but it has improved so much even just in the last year or so

I stopped playing 10 years ago when my ship crushed my body but didn't kill me, instead it forced me in between a weird second layer of the ground so I couldn't interact with anything on the actual ground but also couldn't jump/get out of the second layer. I was basically stuck on nothing. Last week, I hopped on to play again with some friends and had retrieved some high value cargo. When I was getting on the ship, the same exact bug happened to my entire crew. 10 years. They had over a decade and the same bug still exists.

Dude no, they took your money and ran. It’s still a horribly buggy mess even after a decade of development.

big SAME! I donated $20 in 2011 and thought I was gonna die salty having never played the game

I don't think your RTX 17080ti will be very excited tho, it's probably shaking itself apart at just the thought :P

There is also weather and wind. Try landing in a blizzard where you can't see the ground. Been there, done that. The game is amazing already. Though I wouldn't call it a full game yet, there are a lot of things you can do.

@@LaKillingFrenzyyyou totally have the option for it to be simple the controls aren’t complex etc

@@CoveringFish The whole game is hardcore lmao.

That's because Starfield sucks. Star Citizen is awesome because, yes there actually is a learning curve and yes, its actually fulfilling to learn to play the game. Community is AMAZING and super helpful, so don't be afraid to ask for support. In fact, if you don't want to fly you want need to - just ask if someone needs a crew and someone will just pick you up to join their ship.

I mean i didn't buy starfield for the space exploration. Tbh that feels like the only thing star citizen has going for it. I want interesting quests, that's why i bought starfield. Unfortunately it didn't deliver on that either, but i doubt Star Citizen can do that either. Both games feel like their wide as oceans but as deep as a pond. @@rixxy9204

THIS. Too many people forget that the original pitch of the game was much more limited. This is what they always wanted it to be, but sounded too crazy to pitch. Then the funding went through the roof and unlocked the crazy dream game CR actually wanted to make. So glad it's still going strong, and really starting to come together. I don't care how long it takes, I'm just happy to see ONE game project that pulls out all the stops and pushes all the boundaries. It's already leaps and bounds ahead of the rest of the industry in so many ways.

@@neofromthewarnerbrothersic145 Yeah, it's truly quite something to see this all come to fruition over the years. One can only wonder what we'll see in the coming ones.

Yeah, this is far and away different from what SC or even SQ42 would have been, when originally pitched. Yes, it meant scrapping some content and added YEARS to the development, but I'm very happy they did!

cant even play starfield without always ranting about the ship mechanics and especialy the planet landing things... always thinking how much better it would have been if they just made it like Star Citizen that you have to fly around by your self for everything instead of 1 loading screen with 0 animation to travel whole SOLAR SYSTEMS

@@neofromthewarnerbrothersic145The real crazy part: it's not the funding initiating the creation of planet tech. Funds is a nice addition to the REAL reason we got planets: it is because of ONE developer who developed a prototype, in his own time no less. It was so impressive from the start it made CIG switch gears instantly. Think about it. It's this ONE severely gifted individual who gave us those planets and changed the course of this project forever. Love stories and moments like that!: D

Definitely not worried then, because this is all fake. Star Citizen is nothing like this.

Is this same with no mans sky?

@@tighnari5881 not even close. Star Citizen planets are handcrafted individually using procedural systems, each zone, base, outpost is put there by the dev manually, using the tools of course. Whereas No Mans Sky just used procedural systems to create every planet with no dev even seeing the planet.

​@@tighnari5881 - in NMS you have loading screens, you can just travel and go to a start you see on the sky, star citizen has real space - in NMS planets are not as detailed as this. when you are on a planet you feel like you are on a planet. in star citizen you feel like you are on a terrain, on a world, you have forests, rivers, deserts, caves, etc. all high quality and high detail, you feel like you are on the ground and terrain, not a planet in a space game. - many more terrain generation stuff that has no match in the market. - you can walk in your ship and travel with it, at the same time. - in NMS you have big ships but cant move them just teleport them, so they are not really ships just portable bases. in star citizen you have big ships that move. - in star citizen you have more npcs. - star citizen has true multiplayer, nms multiplayer is based on lobbies and mostly buggy or and you are never in sync with other players' worlds. - and many more tbh, i mean star citizen one of its kind atm. a real space simulation. as down side star citizen is really hard on your machine. i have no idea why other studios keep going for loading screens approach for space games, we have 64bit integer, more than enough for a galaxy. and there are many tried and tested methods to render distant stuff on a big space.

@@FPSKiwi Not just that, the scale of planets are far larger in Star Citizen as well.

Then you play the game and realize this is not at all how it performs. My rig can handle the game it runs smooth, but they have focused so much on mechanics and features that there’s really nothing to do but jobs. There is no fun to this game. They want it so real, that it sucks. Bugs also ruin experience and, last time I played there was a lot of them. The need to flex some bug fixes.

If you think its nuts, in a vid.. Imagine how it feels being in that world. Try it out.. its kind of Awesome. All you need is a starter ship package ($45 dollars).. all those other big fancy, or specialized ships can be bought in game - with in game currency.

Ya the game is nuts. You can live out your RP dreams of life in space, hang out on your own and just fly around looking for loot, do cargo running, or fight in space/ground. Getting bored? Just chat with other players and help out the team in bigger missions, racing, or providing support.

@@sulac4ever170 If I recall correctly, -- Elite Dangerous -- did all what is shown in this StarEngine trailer years ago and playable as a released game at that.

wow

Try Crusher Evo headphones, it will shake the head

The fact they don’t explain what’s dynamic about them is the cherry on top. Or melanin-based skin shaders, because they all technically are ? Or how ”mineral gathering and resource simulation” differs in any way from standard MMO mining minigames. The trailer was dope, half the subtitles were whack. CIG truly is the Apple of gaming.

​@@readyforlolA lot of this was explained at the convention this video originally premiered at.

@@readyforlol Well, this was shown off before a 2h panel where they explained everything (new) in great detail. The video would have been at least 2h long if they had explained everything here and what it means exactly. Dynamic Sweat, Tears and Blood means that it is a fluid simulation (a very simple one) that is then applied on top of the texture of the Characters head. This makes it fully dynamic but also controllable by designers. They don't need to make a animation for every single time they want to display any affect on the characters face, they just need to tell the system what to do. This is obviously mostly done for Squadron 42 and it's cinematics but can in the future also be used for StarCitizen (for example to show hygiene of a character) Melanin-based skin shader means that they don't simply have a few different preset skin-tones you can select and the textures are then swapped for that skin-tone. Instead they have a base skin-tone that has all the melanin-values removed so that you can then add any melanin-value possible again and therefore select ANY SKIN-TONE in the entire Melanin-Range. What that means for players is that we can select ANY skin-tone and not just a few pre-fabricated once ... (and for every other point they raised there is also an explanation online either from the panel after or, if the feature is already older, from some other video or presentation CIG made. I always get people who are frustrated with CIG because of timelines, monetisation, SQ42 clarifications, ... but I simply don't get the people who have something against them because they don't give enough details about their tech)

@@readyforlol Doesn't understand - has strong opinion anyway : The Internet

@@latech7671 Ok, i can see where I didn't make my point clear. I don't mind them not explaining their tech. I have a problem when they use fancy words and pretend they created a completely new technology exclusive to their engine when pretty much every AAA game out there already works like that. Skin shaders in most AAA games are modular node graphs with different maps going though various modifiers to get easily editable results (usually by artists, but they're easy enough to be used by designers too). That includes skintones modified by a bunch of sliders, masks, etc. Unity engine has featured these node graphs since 2017. Many higher fidelity ones had those much earlier. I'm miffed they just rebrand it "melanin-based rendering" and act like they came up with it. They've been in use ever since the PS3 days. The simplified physics sim for blood/sweat/tears is more unique because it's not usually a common feature in engines... but there are implementations of that on the Unity asset store. They act like the tech wasn't available before, but it always was there. Other studios just elected not to use it for performance reasons, which always go out the window whenever Star Citizen is concerned. For it to be any form of good news, they'd have to prove they found a way to make it work without eating up the performance budget (they seemingly never set). I mean to say i'm not mad they don't explain their tech, but that they do so in isolation of the context of the rest of the industry. It gives a false idea of how advanced their stuff really is, or how much time it should take to get it working.

Lol I was thinking the same thing about halfway through. Would be a GREAT hardware test

A benchmark for how long it takes to ship a final product.

Not to be a downer but the results would Heavily rely on how fast the asset servers can generate and stream content, so the variance between runs on the same machine must be wild given a server serves more than just a single person. This tech relies heavily on server asset streaming afaik, so unfortunately not good for this idea. I wish tho

How are the guys who shipped faster doing?@@keithgoh123

I’m genuinely at a loss as to how this is so well-optimized. I don’t think even UE5’s nanite technology could pull this off. That’s not even mentioning the sheer strain this would put on the servers… talk about the memory pressure! The layers of technical marvel in this trailer alone is insane. I’m not really a game dev, so I don’t completely know how difficult this must be to make, but I’m _mystified._

@@Tr4ns1st0r This isn't run normally with just a GPU on normal FPS. Its stitched together. It's still impressive the engine doesn't mess up or produce artefacts. But don't think any current system can run anything close to this at that speed and smoothness...

@@DomenG33K Oh, I know that culling is in heavy use here, but still.

@@Tr4ns1st0r all the heavy lifting is done by the servers, which looks extremely challenging how they pulled it off at this scale but nothing revolutionary. The client side is not even impressive. Seems to be using technology about 10 years old atleast (when the game started production), and nowhere close to what ue5 can do. Even today's unity can do better.

So you work in the industry and you're impressed with a heavily tailored PERFECT demo that producers know won't be matched with actual gameplay? Are you for real?

It'll be the next generation that get to play it xD

yes keep it up when we're 80 years old we will be able to play the alpha

At least our childrens will be able to and who knows... Maybe us too. Who knows what there is after death@@radscorpion8

@@moonfrog9878 How long for GTA 6 from 5?

⁠@@Sparkk0 I’m going to answer your question, because you want to know. But GTA V released Sept 13th, 2013. So it’s 12 years of waiting time since GTA VI will supposedly come out in 2025, if there are no delays. But personally, I wouldn’t go on that level because the difference is that at least Rockstar delivers. GTA is such a popular game because of how 1:1 it is with realism and how it makes fun of real life media. Plus they have been supporting the game even still to this day. The fact it’s one of the most popular games (usually top 10 on consoles), just goes to show you shouldn’t be comparing Star Citizen to it. At least it’s BEEN completed and released completed as opposed to milking players for their money just to buy stuff to play the actual game. Shark cards don’t count as that is optional.

3.23 Soon. 1.0 probably in 2028 according to financials

Looks like a gaming engine showcase to start licensing it out to those who actually want to make a game in the future.

still waiting for this amazing insane game to release lmao

@@RustyBuff aren't we all. Honestly, I dont have trust in seeing a full release anytime soon. But the tech is still really cool

meaning it shows nothing, which is what SC is? All that is in this video is a technical demo of graphics components which is what SC always was. The only gameplay element is people fighting fire inside the ship and... nothing happens, they're just scripted.

@@Galf506guessing you have not actually played the game or if you have it was years ago.

I listen to his stuff offline even though I haven't logged in the Verse in months

2:22

If we are talking about locations, everything before the jump point section you can visit right now in the game (that too for free right now since IAE is going on). As for the Pyro system, they set up a big hall with 150 computers wherein people could jump into the Pyro system & later that opened up the Pyro Preview channel to select backers for a brief time period

💙

@@pedro.camacho What John Williams does for movies, Pedro you do that for games. Truly amazing work man. Hope to hear more with Star Citizen o7

its proven to be playable on current hardwares so maybe next game, well not precisely ofc

I still want to know if all those buildings are just shells and if the game is still super glitchy. I haven't played since 2018 and it was absolutely terrible.

honestly unless bethesda steps up and out of there outdated trash, there gunna fall behind and be forgotten.

People bringing starfield into every space game conversation when it's pretty much one of the worst among all the big space games is wild.

@@whannabi It's the most recent space game to come out and Bethesda marketed in a way that over hyped what the game is and how it plays. I thought I would be able to traverse the planets in my ship as an example. Nope. There aren't even any vehicles to store in a ship so we can traverse a planet aside from walking. So where ever I land I am limited by only how much I can tolerate walking while encumbered. Which isn't far from where the ship lands at all. Not to mention; loading screen - loading screen - loading screen - loading screen. . . Bethesda did it to themselves at this rate. To be fair to Bethesda though, they can't take the risks that CIG is taking. No game studio can.

​@@whannabiwell it's an actual videogame, unlike this tech demo nonsense.

For REAL 😂

Couldn't agree more!

Well, they've missed a couple of decades of development so..

get ready to wait another decade

It's already out. This will likely always be a live updating game. If they're planning to hit 100 solar systems like they said, expect to be playing this in a decade and still getting hyped for the next few solar systems to be added

join us we are waiting for 10 years

Here's to another amazing 10 years!

@@Arniox but its not out though is it..... Its in pre alpha....... The funding pledge goals state that it will release with 100 star systems. Im an original backer, just need to put you straight as you are incorrect.

And for the past 13 Years we only had one system. There's gonna come out another one at the end of this year. Just imagine the scale. A completely new system nobody has discovered yet

you mean that engine which immidiately consume 32GB of RAM when you jump into into ? :-D ....... when they willl fix it and optimise it, it will be 10years OUTDATED ;-)

@@jakubkamas8547 If they work on it, then it will not be outdated.

A game being fun is far more important than accurate reflections.

@@jakubkamas8547Engines aren’t “outdated” unless they stop getting updated smart guy. Do you even realize how old engines like Unreal are?? Don’t talk about something you don’t understand.

You're acting like they just started development on this game. It's been well over a decade now. They should be well past developing their engine at this point.

Updated vfx on the jump point. Crew fighting the fire instead of running away. (No more 'this is fine' walking npc :P)

- the ships now effect the water much more noticably, including the waves when the ship hovers over the water - The crash not only looks better, it now also actually effects the water (like they said it would) and the ship-parts even float on the water (something they didn't show at all until now) The water effects in general weren't fully working in the version they showed at the event it seems

- they replaced the npc walking in the fire with one trying to extinguish it at 19:06 and also added another one in the corridor at 18:56

- They added ship traffic around the locations, as well as NPC's at different locations (Orison and settlement in Pyro). - Grim Hex wasn't there before in the asteroid belt.

the glitched NPC in the Pyro station (walking against the railing near the tattoo-demonstration) was deleted.

good eye

I got invited to the free event when the event was ending, the timestamp on the email was literally hours before it ended. Stuff like that makes me not even want to try.

I had the recommended ram size and everything was working normal until it just bricked my ram IN THE TUTORIAL ROOM and I had 2 fps. Instant uninstall, never trying that again

Unfortunately the server performance really takes a bit during free fly events, ruining the experience especially for new players. Don’t get me wrong, it always has some issues but it’s normally pretty decent

@@honeyglazeham9621 free fly is continuing until the 30th of this month...

I played on a GTX 1060 years ago and was unimpressed with the optimization. Wonder how my 4070 would do today.

That was so many correct words in correct syntax and order, that I enjoyed this comment

Could I run this with a Intel core i7 and a 4070?

Yes, so long as it's at least a 4th gen i7. The newer the better because it is a CPU intensive game. 16gb RAM will work if you don't have much else open. 32gb is better. @@spitlikesfire9368

​@@spitlikesfire9368you need an ssd, at least 32Gb of RAM and a strong processor, I don't know what kind of I7 you have, but if it's one of the newer ones you are probably fine

@@spitlikesfire9368 for sure, I got a 5800X3D and a 3060Ti and yes, cities are a bit laggy but space, stations and planets are fine.
