Reverse the Verse - Episode 17 with CIG

 

http://www.twitch.tv/cigcommunity/c/5222975

 

Note - they are calling the Impromptu Reverse the Verse on the Reclaimer episode 16 so I modified the title of this thread to match this one being episode 17 of RTV.

 

Notes transcribe in summary (in order) below:

• Not enough WIP to show Starfarer or Caterpillar Sneak Peak in ATV
• CIG set up everything for the AMD Mustang - they don't know why they can't release it - have to heard more from AMD
• Avenger Variants ready (probably we will see them soon)
• Dog Tags are now being polished
• CIG keeps a "Lore Bible"
• James has been created a Lore Character List
• "Flat Cats" are an indigenous plant species evolving on heavy gravity planets
• "What type of Religions will be in SC?" - Most religions we see today will still be around in SC times (with new ones introduced).  They won't define specific ones.
• "What happened to the Moon for Earth in SC times?" - There will be moon bases but they won't commit to a landing zone on Earth's moon.
• They will be infusing Alien Languages with future Lore posts
• Mustang owners will get a 300i as a trainer (until they are fully flyable - they will appear in hangar only at first)
• CIG will hack the hangar system to allow Medium size ships to appear with Small ships in the same bay and affect the total number of ships appearing in hangar.
• Owen is cleaning up the damage states on the 300 series
• The Idris "did not" become shorter - it was just the angle of the shot
• No new ATV and no RTV for next week - Citizen Con
• You will hear more about the PU next week - Citizen Con
• No price range for the Carrack yet
• The Claw on the Reclaimer articulates - not just going back and forth
• Citizen Con will reveal CIG's plans for next year (yearly summary and update)
• Interior defines how difficult the damage state become (if it has a bigger interior it is more difficult) - Overall size matters but Interior size matters more.
• Avenger Variants are vastly different from each other
• Damage states are independent of damage type.  Damage types will show the same breaking apart vs it blowing up or being cut off.
• No new info on new Corvette - other than it is in its "Text Description Phase" with no "Concept Art" being worked on yet.
• CIG has an archive of their favorite CS tickets
• Alien "Flat Cat" Plushies may be a merchandise option (per a fan request)
• End of November is the end of the Campaign so they may do something special then in addition to doing something special for Citizen Con (Oct 10th)
• Amazing progress on the 890 Jump - Ben is working on the stats
• UEC will be earnable in AC but it will be after AC1.0 but before AC2.0
• Caterpillar has not changed role or size (still the same)
• Super Hornet will go on sale again
• Single seater ships and small multi-seater ships have priority for completion for AC (like Cutlass, Xi'An Scout, Super Hornet, etc...) -- over larger multi-crew ships.
• FPS module will have another $5 cost like AC
• M50 will be the next subscriber flare (the model)
• "How long is the Carrack" - Ben answers that it is on the Spec Page (thus it will "probably" not grow in size like all the other CIG current ships  )
• "When do we get the Room system for the Hangar?"  - Underlining framework is ready according to Travis
• They combine up to 92 animations on characters (for FPS).  CIG will be able to use the same animation from fist person to third person perspective  (one unified rig) [ most games don't do this yet ] - It will improve immersion compared to what we are used to seeing in other games

two different shows with two different topics of discussion.  I thought someone would create a separate thread for I was in my meeting at work.  Maybe move these post to that thread?  I'll have a chance in the next couple hours to watch both and transcribe "Reverse the Verse" into the OP of this thread. - Thanks

We did create a separate thread, it was merged into this one......we need to get the news section fixed, so that this kind of thing gets sorted.

You are right, I think it was merged by accident because of the confusement that RTV and ATV are different shows.

For that reason I splitted the topic so everything is seperated now

Had time to watch the recording (from a busy work day) and just updated the OP with a summary transcribed version - Enjoy
