TenPoundFortyTwoGUEST
I wouldn't get your hopes up for high s- Well, maybe it'd be good for getting you back to sleep.
TenPoundFortyTwoGUEST
If you like, uh, polling questions and, and speculating on whether Squadron 42-
Space TomatoHOST
Oh
TenPoundFortyTwoGUEST
... might really come out or not-
1 HR 2 MINS LATER
Space TomatoHOST
Um, we're nowhere near a Star Citizen 1.0, and do you think that the...
Space TomatoHOST
Like, you said this cycle will keep going.
Space TomatoHOST
Do you think it can, though? G- genuinely, even if Squadron 42 comes out and it's all good, don't you think, like, CIG as a company kinda needs to shift the way that they're handling all of this long term?
TenPoundFortyTwoGUEST
Um, I guess when I mean the cycle will continue is, what I mean by that is that there'll be multiple years between now and 1.0.
Broccoli RobHOST
That's not even Star Citizen.
Broccoli RobHOST
That's Squadron 42.
Cosmic HoboAUDIENCE
This is unfortunately par for the course for this time of the year, though.
Cosmic HoboAUDIENCE
This is this is always the slow time.
40 MINS LATER
WicketAUDIENCE
No, Wicket, you're wrong.
Jar JarHOST
Did you read the letter from the chairman? No.
Jar JarHOST
55% of staff is working on Squadron 42.
Jar JarHOST
And this is now at the end of the polishing phase.
Paul ShelleyHOST
And on top of that, a video for the first time in a year, CIG did an inside look at the game itself with a new segment called Inside CIG.
Paul ShelleyHOST
And on top of that, they did a letter from the chairman for 410's release, which included a delay for Squadron 42.
Paul ShelleyHOST
So to say that the community is a little, I wouldn't say upset, I would say chaotic right now is an understatement.
Paul ShelleyHOST
There are some people who are very, very happy that CIG is finally opening up again like they've had in the past.
Paul ShelleyHOST
But also, on top of that, there were things like high concurrency numbers being mentioned, that...
Paul ShelleyHOST
I'm looking on the rest of it.
Paul ShelleyHOST
But there was more good news in there than just Squadron 42 being delayed, including the idea that Chris said specifically that they want to get back to more open development communications.
Paul ShelleyHOST
They felt like they've been slipping on that and they're trying to open up.
Scott TailfordHOST
Including, you know, when Star Citizen was first talked about as this mass online multiplayer single player, sorry, first person exploration game.
Scott TailfordHOST
They also mentioned this thing called Squadron 42, which you might remember Mark Hamill being attached to.
Scott TailfordHOST
Gary Oldman's in there as well.
Scott TailfordHOST
And there's a few other like known actors that are in there.
SolusHOST
As I look at the agenda for the day, not a lot happened in the last seven days.
SolusHOST
So we had a very... very busy week about two weeks ago where squadron 42 has announced its delay uh 410 came out instancing siege of orison we had a very like hot and heavy uh news cycle two weeks ago and then this past week has been stabilization it's been preparing the live pu for what comes next and And so that's what this episode is.
SolusHOST
It's it's it's what's next.
SolusHOST
It's what's next in the community.
8 MINS LATER
SolusHOST
I truly think that whatever progress CIG is going to make towards Star Citizen, it's going to happen this month, maybe a little bit into October.
SolusHOST
But if you think about it, here's September, a little bit into October.
SolusHOST
October is about Squadron 42, and Squadron 42 is going to take the news from here.
SolusHOST
Really think about it, whether you're interested in Squadron 42 or not, if you're 100 percent into Star Citizen, it's I mean, I don't know.
JayHOST
We'll talk about that as well.
JayHOST
steam has well steam has had a breach a leak uh quite a big one um if you've got a few spare terabytes lying around you too could download that and then if you were thinking about getting a copy of star citizens spin-off game squadron 42 i would put your credit card away because it isn't coming out anytime soon and microsoft seem to be giving one thing away and then asking for more money in another hand as they are making changes to xbox cloud gaming and I know it's going to be all about the apples next week, but we've got one rumor in the rumor mill, which is not phone related.
JayHOST
But anyway, more on that in just a bit.
JayHOST
Let's talk about meta then, as we've been talking about this story for the last, what, two or three weeks, haven't we? And this is all to do with these class action lawsuits, isn't it, that have been happening in the US around meta and particularly around, isn't it, Facebook and Instagram and the addictiveness to young people.
23 MINS LATER
CarlHOST
You used to get all the famous people and do the Wing Commander.
JayHOST
Yeah.
JayHOST
So Squadron 42, when was it originally released?
CarlHOST
2015 it was meant to be.
Jar JarHOST
People pop on and give us their thoughts about CIG, Star Citizen, and the real game.
Jar JarHOST
Squadron 42.
Jar JarHOST
The real project that everybody's excited about.
Jar JarHOST
The one you all are paying for.
15 MINS LATER
Jar JarHOST
Yep.
Jar JarHOST
You called it.
Jar JarHOST
And I just want to point out, I do have recordings of everybody throughout the year making their predictions on Squadron 42.
Jar JarHOST
So definitely watch what you say today.
MaxHOST
news, everyone.
MaxHOST
First up in the news is Star Citizen has announced that Squadron 42, which is their single-player RPG version of all of their Tekken game, that was supposed to come out this fall, quote-unquote supposed to... has been delayed to 2027.
MaxHOST
And they're not even saying exactly when in 2027, but it sounds like somewhere in the first quarter, first half of 2027.
MaxHOST
And as this title says, and as everyone is doubting, they're insisting it's because of GTA 6.
MaxHOST
Well, they knew when GTA 6 was going to be announced for the past year and still came down to the wire of when they said that they were going to be releasing Squadron 42.
MaxHOST
Everyone is also just sort of spicy about it.
MaxHOST
All the fans are spicy about it because they've been saying literally since 2016 that the game's basically done.
SeemaHOST
Yes, it would be wonderful to polish something for three years.
LevelCapHOST
And then sure enough, like that same day they launched the statement that was like, Hey guys, uh, yeah, GTA 6, gonna be a big launch, we don't wanna co-launch with GTA 6, we're gonna drop in Q2.
LevelCapHOST
There's been some debate online as to whether or not that's a GTA 6 problem or a Squadron 42 problem, and it's a fair enough debate to not fully trust CIG in what they're saying because they have Been so behind schedule, a long, long, long, long, long track record of missing release dates, poorly anticipating dev times, everything under the sun.
LevelCapHOST
This, I mean, some of these original release dates were 2014, you know, where you're just like, they've been delaying since 2014.
LevelCapHOST
It's just an insane amount of delays.
LevelCapHOST
So...
LevelCapHOST
I'm skeptical myself as to whether or not the game was in a finished enough state.
LevelCapHOST
They do have apparently a bunch of content creators and fans coming out in October, I believe, to play the game live at the studio and play through Squadron 42.
LevelCapHOST
I don't know if they're going to play through the whole thing or what, but... they're at least confident enough to bring those people out to check it out.
Way Too GeekyHOST
Yeah.
Way Too GeekyHOST
Scare said, I'd leave the secret compartment concept for whatever scene is needed for in Squadron 42 as a bespoke MSR variant within the story.
Way Too GeekyHOST
Outside the narrative context, I'd redesign the ship to make it either slimmer or make better use of the internal volume for component access and exit entry.
Way Too GeekyHOST
The built-in smuggling bay doesn't really make sense when every single production MSR has it as it defeats the idea of a secret compartment.
