Squadron 42 Cinematic: I Held The Line... (Citizen Con Reaction)

The standing ovation for Chris hit me right in the feels, it's written all over his face just how much that moment meant to him. Wholesome AF

I finally have a good video to show people when they ask why i've been following this game for so long

i was there, i was in LA, i saw chris cry, i was really close to cry aswell lol! it was amazing! i love this community! HOLD THE LINE

I was MEH about s42 but this got me pretty hyped. You can tell they're really passionate about this. If people still cry "scam" after this con have no idea what they're talking about

Wow, what a journey of over a decade to get here. The fact that static server meshing is shown to work is industry-changing. Watching this journey since 2015 unfold and being a part of it in a small way has been amazing. The amount of pain, blood, sweat, and tears that Chris, the development teams, and the backers of this game have had to drudge through is epic. The fact that we the backers stuck with this project for so long is a miracle in itself. Now that the massive resources of SQ42 move over to focusing on the PU we will see the tech implementation accelerate. Chris is right about that; a ton of the tech is ready to be implemented into the game and in 24 months I honestly feel like they will nail down Dynamic server meshing and the game will explode into one of the greatest MMORPGs of all time.

23:25 I was also like why are these military trained personnel casually pointing the barrel straight at another persons face!

Mark Hamill: "The advantage here was Chris Roberts. I had such a good time working with him and not only he's a wizard of all things involving games, but he's a great director and a great friend. And really when he asked me, I didn't even have to read the script, I just jumped out. I really wanted to work with him again." - Youtube video: Mark Hamill on Star Citizen, Wing Commander and Star Wars. Channel: PC GAMER PC Gamer talks to Mark Hamill about his work on Star Citizen's 'Squadron 42' module, his career, fandom and more. (2017)

Chris is already to me on the same level as Kojima , he may be dorkier and less stoic but this man had that vision no one else has

Been holding the line since October 11th, 2012. There is still some work to do and I hope it has a compelling story and releases as polished as possible but wow did that video make me proud to be a backer. Seeing it all come together and that the potential is actually there for this game to be really something special was just incredible. This was the game I was hoping for when I backed 11 years ago.

I liked the fact the npc's on the idris bridge were direcrly interaction with their screen and not just mindlesssly tapping a static screen

I backed for SQ42 at the beginning, This is what I have been waiting to see for so many years!

What they’ve done in S42 makes me excited for what’s to come in star citizen.

Such an amazing time at Citizencon this year. Them implementing the faces they made just hours before presenting this was incredible. Next year or two will be extremely exciting for Star Citizen. I will attend every Citizencon I possibly can after this. It will be hard for IAE to top this. Right?

Olli, I'm happy you know your basic gun safety rules 😆

Can't wait for the Switch port.

As an avionics technician, it's nice to see ground crews feeling alive, it's a small, but incredibly important detail.

I'm gonna have to get my GPU upgraded for sq42. Glad I got a few years up my sleeve to do it. This game deserves to be played with all setting cranked up to 11.

I feel so weird these last two days, this feeling that the thing I've invariably believed in for the past 12 years is actually possible, and advanced well further than what I hoped. I'm now fully liberated of the doubt and self-questioning that every SC backer should have. I know they're making it happen now, there is no ambiguity left. They are crushing the video game industry, and even if they need 3 times the time they announced I'm confident and reassured. We didn't wait in vain, the 3y we spent in darkness were completely and utterly brutally justified in my eyes by the sheer amount of never seen before tech and polish they showed off at CitizenCon. Locations are starting to look as good as full fledged games, spaceships are soon ascending to the rank of full fledged game levels, the map could be it's own city building interface, and will be basically a better google maps, in a game. I just can't play another game after this, my mind is completely blown. Bright days ahead citizens o7

30:50 is when he finally realized the audience believes in him for real this time. I myself don't see myself as an hardcore Star Citizen fan, but I've stayed in touch with their content since 2013 If I remember correctly. And there has been moments where I started losing hope. Cloud Imperium Games turned the tables around this spesific day that they are on their own and this is how a videogame should look like with no limits.

Being in the crowd when this happened was was just special, everyone was so unbelievably hyped, they deserved the standing ovation
