A weekly chat about all things Star Citizen, plus other games as and when they reach into our brains and say hello.
In this episode we cover CitizenCon 2017, including the Xi'an language, the Pioneer, and what else will come after 3.0 We also talk a bit about Grakees' health. Some stuff has been happening, and we thought it best to share.
In this mini-episode, we look at lighting of faces, the dramatic cull of bugs and what that means for evocati, and we look at the importance of 3.0 Also, Grakees is a fucker. You heard it here first.
A mini-episode, covering off the highlights of the week that was - looking at Stamina, the 600i Q&A, the burndown, and a few other bits and bobs. We reference Batgirl's awesome Bensday with Batgirl & Ben - which is on Youtube. You can check out the specific ep we talk about here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nc9b2oK3boU
We're back! Sorry for being away - reasons are at the start of the show. In this ep, Grakees and DoublarThackery talk about Gamescom, the 600i, and a few other odds and sods. Enjoy!
More updates and clarifications on the CCUs - and we get deep into the moons (as well as talk about the new Friday the 13th game what is out). Grakees Discord channel: https://discord.gg/zTzpeuW (apologies for the audio - Grakees had a lightning strike that took out his tech).
Time to talk about CCU's. CIG have made a few statements, and we look to understand the potential meaning.
(pre show chat included) QA is important. CIG talk about QA, and so do we. Also, we look at the possibility of Star Citizen becoming an e-sport.
We chat about the Banu Defender (and Doublar gets facts about how the Banu would operate such a ship painfully wrong), as well as the Banu culture - delving into issues of slavery and other such things. Also, we discuss that there updated referral system, and the competition that has just been launched...
The 3.0 Schedule has dropped, and Grakees and Doublar take some time with it.
We finish off talking about some of our ME:A encounters, and then talk about the confirmation of player housing in Star Citizen, and what this could mean... Also, to celebrate Space Week on Twitch, check out BadNewsBaron's one hour chat/interviewathon with CIG staff - including Erin Roberts! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2AgRdY918s
To celebrate the release of Mass Effect Andromeda, Grakees and Doublar talk about the game, and answer questions from chat about it. Note: This is a spoiler free review of the game, so you're safe. :) http://www.stuff.tv/game-reviews/mass-effect-andromeda/review
We delve into Item 2.0 and clothing, as well as theorising about what our characters will look like... ...and thus, Operation Grakees was born.
We go deep into CIG's excellent Happy Hour Design a Creature stream, as well as looking at the release of the Anvil Hurricane, and Grakees and DoublarThackery go head to head in a quiz. Dun dun DUUUUUUNNNNNN.
DoublarThackery and Grakees get waaay too into Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes, before we move onto recent Star Citizen news, and have a bit of a conversational ding-dong about exclusives.
This episode is brought to you by nightmares in technology, followed by beer. (We were pretty certain we lost an episode - this is probably it. Oh well).
This ep we talk about the Vanduul and Xi'an languages, as we explore ConLang and Star Citizen. Get your nerd hats on - we're going in deep!
Apologies! Both for the silence and for the horrible audio issues this episode. Doubleplus ungood. We had nightmare tech issues. Amazed we got a show out of it. In this ep, we catch up on a few things that have gone on in our absence, and generally chat nonse - as is usual.
Delving more into Star Citizen planetary procedural generation! (also, Grakees and Steve Boom go camping https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85WO-D_10zI)
CitizenCon part 2 - where we talk more about Squadron 42, and what they showed. (ps wash your hands) x
My word - Grakees goes away for a couple of weeks to Twitchcon and CitizenCon, and we have a bumper show to make up for it. Cor blimey. We talk a lot about CitizenCon this week, looking at the ins and outs - both from a person who watched remotely (DT), and a person who was there (G). Breaking this into two parts so you can go poop inbetween.
A bumper episode that we've broken into two parts in order to make it easier to consume. In this second part we finish up talking about modularity, and then move onto Kotaku's article on Star Citizen, as well as recap the Saitek acquisition.
A bumper episode that we've broken into two parts in order to make it easier to consume. In this part we talk about Star Citizen's facial animation, as well as base/part modularity.
What a week! We look at character art, theorise what two ships will be live for 3.0, and we talk about the difference between insertion and just the tip.
Now that Gamescom is over, and the week after exhaustion has faded, we look at Derelicts, Dragonflies, and Interdiction. Also, Grakees makes editing this podcast hard. Shame shame SHAME.
Oh man! Wasn't Gamescom cool? Grakees and Doublar are beyond knackered, so this weeks episode is pretty much the last of our energy for the week :) Sorry bout that. This ep we cover our personal reactions to No Man's Sky, and then our experiences of Gamescom. twitch.tv/Grakees twitch.tv/Doublarthackery
Doublar and Grakees do a catchup of the last few weeks, talk about 2.5 on PTU, and then move onto Gamescom!

(Also, massive chunk of our post-show chat is included - where we talk about the Idris) (Doublar spent ten hours the day before drinking shots every twenty-thirty minutes, so is barely able to speak. Big shout to Grakees for remaining sober. Hell, if he didn't, this would be an episode of mouth-dribbles).

DoublarThackery is exhausted. After recording this he didn't so much as fall asleep as become seriously unconscious. Wow. Grakees saves the day as he has all the information about what has happened this week (Instancing! AI! Other stuff!), as well as excellent suggestions about 2.3 - while Doublar burbles like a small child who has been given his first taste of moonshine. Vids.

Grakees has 2.2 PTU in his filthy hugging hands, so this week we are spending the whole episode covering it. With questions from Doublar and the audience, here's a chance to hear what 2.2 is like - what is working, what is borked, and what shows promise.

It has been a quiet couple of weeks, and Grakees has drank a lot of relaxing Kava Tea - which has left him like a mellow puppy. Most confusing.We talk NDAs, special projects, dataforge, and generally embrace the lull of pre 2.2. http://www.roguegamegear.com/mek-fu-controller/Grakees - twitch.tv/GrakeesDoublarThackery - twitch.tv/DoublarThackeryOpening Music: Infected Mushroom - Now is Gold - used with permissionClosing Music: Infected Mushroom - Heavyweight - used with permission
