Just as 2019 was being put to mattress, Cloud Imperium delivered a few Xmas items to its Star Citizen gamers. They launched model 3.Eight of their space-faring cash blackhole, including new planet tech, new worlds, and PvP punching. They additionally launched a “visual teaser” for Squadron 42, which is their shooting-heavy Star Citizen spin-off and might be too far into growth to be teased like this.
3.8’s greatest bling is the brand new planetary tech. I haven’t seen it within the flesh but, however the trailer under made me need to hop again in my Aurora and see a number of the pretty, sharp, desolate moons up shut. Though it’s not all swimsuit slicing scree. There are some lush forests in there as effectively, which I used to be shocked to see. I didn’t anticipate to see leaves amidst all this tech.
There’s additionally melee, aka males awkwardly swinging punches at every one other.
The latest planet within the ‘verse, Microtech, has some excessive climate situations, giving the crew the possibility to go ham with the snow and ice results. Games are actually getting good at this sort of thing.
And then there’s Squadron 42. I didn’t be taught something new in regards to the FPS-focused side-chick to Star Citizen from this visible trailer. Not a single bullet is fired, however it’s purty. I hope they make one thing of the backdrops, and that you just don’t simply see them by means of the home windows of some huge house dust_2.
I simply checked my watch and it’s undoubtedly about time for my bi-annual Star Citizen playthrough. If there’s something price shouting about, I’ll beg Graham to let me let you know all about it.
