Launch Sequence with Space Tomato: Recent Episodes
Space Tomato
Space Tomato is joined by a new guest every week to discuss Star Citizen in regards to their expertise or perspective. Hear from industry professionals, game developers, content creators, and more as we explore the ins and outs of what makes Star Citizen work, how it got to where it is, and what people love (or hate) about it so much. This all joined by general gaming discussion, once a week every week, full of info, humor, wisdom, and a couple of endless rants. Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/launchsequence/support
One of the most frustrating parts of Star Citizen is its instability. While servers cause many problems, our computers also struggle to hit FPS targets. Today I’m joined by TenPoundFortyTwo to discuss PC performance in Star Citizen, why your computer doesn’t run the game all that great, and when it may get better.

With so many major design decisions solidifying and being made, there is a lot of commentary about the direction of Star Citizen and what is right for the game. Today I’m joined by Youtuber LiefX to discuss the simulation elements of the game, why people feel they are going away, and how it’s possible people also believe the game is getting too complicated.

There are tons of ships to try in Star Citizen, but a select group are catered towards first time players. Despite this, these “starter” ships have a lot of benefits to them in the long run. In today’s episode of the Launch Sequence Podcast, I’m joined by Dedleader to discuss what makes a starter ship, and how you can make the most of them as well.

A new concept ship has been introduced to Star Citizen, but with no release date in sight it might not be the most interesting. Despite that, the unique nature of the ship, mixed with a versatile chassis has led to a lot of excitement surrounding the new large freighter. I’m joined this week by Phaseone Gaming to discuss the merits of the ship, and what has us interested.Today’s Guests:Phaseone GamingYoutube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCemNqvBqVZU7fAVhUx5pf7ATwitter - hhttps://x.com/PGR_Official_ToC:00:00 Introductions04:30 A Shift in Star Citizen Gameplay08:40 The Drake Ironclad12:40 Ironclad Size & Carrying Capacity18:00 6 Person Crew?27:20 It’s a Unique Ship!38:50 What Will It Cost?42:10 Why Do People Like This?46:00 Non-Player Uses for the Ironclad50:00 4.0 DiscussionSupport This Podcast:Patreon Paypal Ko-FiFollow Space Tomato on social media:Website Youtube My Other Youtube --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/launchsequence/messageSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/launchsequence/support
We’ve waited years for Star Citizen 4.0, and even now the update is not technically in our hands. But there are reasons to believe the next update is the vaunted server meshing update, and we may see it this summer according to a new roadmap update. But what’s included, and why is this the first major version change to Star Citizen since 2017. I’m joine dby Star Citizen streamer Xerostate to discuss the update and its place in the journey to release.

With Star Citizen 3.23 finally released to the public, a lot of quality improvements have been made to the game. Between gameplay, UI, backend systems, and general content, it seems there might be enough in-game to convince old players to return, and new players to give it a try. In this episode, Youtube TheAstroPub and I discuss what may bring new players back, and what comes next.

This original recording of episode 154 was video corrupted and lost the last 20 minutes of the recording. For this reason, the audio only will be released as a bonus episode, and a new version of this will be published next week. In this episode, I discuss with Star Citizen streamer Xerostate what various parts of the game may need to be developed or improved on for this game to reach a 1.0 release state.

The RSI Polaris is one of the most anticipated ships in Star Citizen, and it’s finally headed for the game. For the first time players will see the capital class ship in-game at Invictus Launch Week in May, but how will we experience it, and why are players so excited for it. Today’s episode invites Execute from the Inforunners to discuss the upcoming ship, it’s origins, and what capital ships will mean for the game.

Everybody has a different story for how they found their main game, no matter what it is. Star Citizen ends up bringing many players from games that may not traditionally lead to a space flight MMO sim, but that’s because they game aims for much more. In today’s episode I’m joined by streamer YoyoMeg to talk about her own journey from FPS console shooters to the PC MMO Star Citizen, a journey I and many others share. Hope you enjoy!

2 months ago Star Citizen youtuber SaltEMike joined me on the show to discuss his feelings for Star Citizen Alpah 3.23. They were hype. Since then some items have been added to the update, and some (big ones) removed. Today we have chance to reconvene and discuss latest feelings about how these features actually ended up feeling in-game, whether the update still feels as exciting, and honest thoughts about persistent hangars and cargo updates being delayed. Enjoy!

While there is still plenty more to learn about it, we’ve had several hours to test out some of the first features and have quite a bit to say!

Engineering gameplay will add a multitude of resources to ships, vehicles, and buildings that players will need to balance and control for maximum efficiency. This could provide a TON more unique gameplay for players, but it also could make ship ownership more difficult. Today I’m joined by Loud Guns to discuss the complexities and reasons for engineering, and whether it may ruin solo gameplay for Star Citizen players.

From the Polaris to the Zeus, Star Citizen has a full spread of ships in production to be delivered in 2024. Some are known and some are not, some are combat and some are industrial. I'm joined by YouTuber Farrister today to provide these ships, talk about what we know of each one, and speculate on when they might be released. If you like spaceships, this one is for you.

- Over the last few weeks Star Citizen has technically achieved it’s 2017 stated goal of a server meshed environment. While there is plenty more work to be done until it runs as needed for the game at large, early results are impressive. With almost 800 players ina single system, jump points leading players to Pyro, and tip top performance like we haven’t seen before, there’s a lot to talk about. Today I’m joined by Hybrid V Audio to discuss the impressive first tests of server meshing, and what comes next.

From sniper changes to reloading upgrades, scanning abilities to sliding mechanics. Star Citizen FPS gameplay has always been rough, but with Alpha 4.0 on the horizon and Star Citizen 1.0 in the minds of the developers, the game needs to pick it up and improve the experience, fast.

Server Meshing, Distribution Centers, Master Modes, Pyro, a lot is changing in Star Citizen very quickly. But is this really the moment, or will it be a slog to go from basic server meshing to the real deal? Is 2024 going to actually be a big year? Today I’m joined by longtime friend and guest on the show, Morphologis, to talk the big topics.

But did you know it's a change BACK to more familiar waters, just with a twist?

Star Citizen has had it’s ups and downs, and oftentimes the news surrounding these times can be exagerated. With so many additions coming soon to Star Citizen, and so many major statements being made, it can be hard to know if it’s time to get truly excited.

With Squadron 42 reaching the feature complete stage, the features that have been polished for its release are beginning to be moved over to Star Citizen. With Alpha 3.23 on the horizon, many of the placeholder systems that have held Star Citizen back, like the Starmap, interaction system, and character locomotion, are seeing major updates. Is Star Citizen finally moving beyond the tech demo feel it has always had? Today I discuss with return guest, TheAstroHistorian.

As Star Citizen is built, the slow process has produced amazing moments and fun gameplay. But at the end of all of this, the game won’t work with the proper MMO backend. CIG is blazing a trail in the gaming industry, and trying to construct something never done before in gaming. With decades of experience in software and network engineerin between them, my guests today hope to shed some light on just how phenomenal the system is, and how difficult it will be to run. Today we sit down with Tybio and Kevin Riggle of recent Star Citizen reaction fame to discuss server meshing with the pros.

While Star Citizen is a sim, and quite a bit to learn, many players don’t want to spend hours every week just to enjoy it. Will this game provide players looking to experience it casually a good experience? This week I talk with streamer R3vak who has covered Star Citizen in the past, only to take a break. Now that he’s back I wanted to know why, and whether the differences he is now seeing might point to a more widely enjoyable game. Enjoy!

Star Citizen is a complicated topic, and a $48,000 puchaseable item is sure to raise a couple eyebrows, as it has recently. The general gaming community, understandably, is a bit skeptical and taken aback by Star Citizen, so today Bethesda-focused Youtuber @LoneVaultWanderer was kind enough to join me to discuss the outside perception and misconceptions surrounding the project, as well as the controversy and general negative coverage of the game that leads to its reputation.

The 2 longest-running past times of Star Citizen are transporting goods and shooting things. Combat has seen a multitude of updates, but cargo updates have been minimal. In today’s episode I’ll be talking to industrial streamer Seggellion about how the profession has changed and stagnated, and what the future holds for space truckers.

If there’s one thing everybody in Star Citizen can agree on this year, it’s that something has changed. Whether it’s tech like PES, gameplay like salvage, or game defining systems like the cargo refactor, the game we are playing now is much different than previous years. But there’s more to it than that, the game is expanding it’s presence in the community and beyond. Today, I’m joined by AbdiYohan to take a deeper look at this change over the course of 2023.

One year ago salvage didn’t exist in Star Citizen. Now there are 3 methods of doing so, and tons of missions to choose. This change was quick, but it’s not over yet. While structural salvage introduced another step to salvage, it’s far from complete and polished. Today Dedleader and I go over the existing salvage gameplay, and how it’s expect to continue changing in the future.

Star Citizen has always had alien races in lore, but recently they’ve been having a heavier influence on the actual game. The Gatac Syulen is the first ship from a new manufacturer, and the first alien “starter” ship. Today I’m joined by YouTuber and ship reviewer Farrister to discuss the Syulen as well as all the other vehicles being released to Star Citizen at CitizenCon.

With the first preview of the Pyro channel complete, many players are wondering how much fo the gameplay seen is what the system actually aims to achieve. Over the years, and especially at the most previous CitizenCon, CIG has made clear what they want this new frontier system to be. VoiDude tends to er on the side of my…Pyro-like gameplay, so I thought I’d have him on to talk about how CIG’s vision or Pyro translates to him, and how much different Pyro and even future systems might be from what people expect.

Static server meshing is not a new technology in gaming, but it is a more rarely used loading method. Dynamic server meshing, which is the goal for Star Citizen, is new but is still a ways away.

The “$10,000 ship” the Anvil F8C is now in players’ hands, and it’s powerful, some would say too much so. But that surprise isn’t the only ongoing change to the combat meta. Master modes is currently in testing, and many other ship changes aim to alter the way we fight in game.

LevelCapGaming came into regular Star Citizen coverage HYPED (my interview from that time is linked below), but it’s been 18 months of thick Star Citizen development cycle fatigue. So how is he faring now after delays, mistakes, and instability, and what’s the outlook for the game's future? This is a good one, folks, There is a lot of discussion from LevelCap’s unique perspective.

There has been a hefty dose of reading on and in between the lines this past week. With a 3.21 confirmation, 4.0 will not be coming this year, and with 3.20 approaching, new features and quality-of-life fixes are making the patch sound much better than previously thought. This week I’m joined by SaltEMike to discuss all the latest Star Citizen news and what we expect for 3.20, 3.21, and the rest of the year.

With 3.20 in testing on the PTU, players continue to dig into any possible changes we didn’t already know about. With the Hull C and a new addition to the cargo refactor included, I sat down with cargo hauling Youtuber Jack Axton to get a clue on whether cargo hauling, supply and demand, or the economy in general may have changed to bring the excitement back to cargo hauling in alpha 3.20.

Known for ship videos in Elite Dangerous, The Pilot changed over to Star Citizen and subsequently began working for the company as well. Today I pick his brain to hear what it’s like to work on the gargantuan project, vying for insight into the game, and getting his opinion on what’s coming next.

With Starfield soon releasing, comparing it with Star Citizen has become a weekly topic (even around these parts). But these games are actually very different, and not just in gameplay but in origin, timeline, and overall mission + design. Today I want to dive deep into what makes Star Citizen such a unique and exciting project, while also looking at the draw of Starfield in comparison. For this comparison, I’m joined by Escape From Tarkov Youtuber g0at to discuss what draws him to both, and what annoys him.

Some features in Star Citizen are introduced and discussed, but not experienced. The dynamic economy is one of the biggest features that falls into this trap. But what does it include, and why aren’t we seeing it in-game? Today, joined by TheSpaceCoder, I’ll be taking a look at the problems with the economy in Star Citizen, how the Quantum Simulation aims to fix them, and when we might start experiencing it firsthand.

While news is slow, Star Citizen is due for a new update soon. Alpha 3.20 is right around the corner, but still in a pretty unpredictable position in terms of the full feature set and exact timing of the new patch. With features like master modes and a ship like the Hull C coming in, though, there’s a lot to discuss. This week I’m joined by Croncy to look at expected features in 3.20 as well as expected goings on at CitizenCon in October, Star Citizen’s biggest annual event.

One of the biggest launches of the year in 2023 is actually a space game. I couldn’t be happier! But it’s also a video game in 2023, game launches are a tricky lot, now. Is it possible that our excitement for Starfield is leading to overhype? Absolutely! But today I want to talk about WHY that is happening, and of course, acknowledge our biases. Join Morphologis and myself as we discuss the pros and cons of Starfield, and whether it’s worth getting so excited about.

Halfway through the year, I’m afraid the outlook for Star Citizen’s bigger features is not shaping up to be as good as I’d hoped. A lot of work that looked set for Q3 of 2023 is now looking like Q4 (shocked). That doesn’t mean we aren’t still getting a lot of new content throughout the remainder of 2023. This week on the Launch Sequence I’m joined by CasaBlack who keeps a close eye on Star Citizen communication to talk about where some anticipated new ships and features may land throughout the second half of 2023.

Star Citizen is a game built around risk, choice, and consequence. Your preparation and knowledge will help you avoid gameplay you don’t want, and for many that’s PvP. Today I’ll be discussing with Youtuber and streamer Avenger__One the inherent risks of Star Citizen, how you can avoid being attacked by pirates, and how the game will allow you to limit the gameplay you want to avoid.

With the recent Starfield showcase, there have been many questions about how it might impact Star Citizen. There’s no denying Star Citizen has struggled with development speed, and many are ready for a more polished experience. But there is a reason people continue to play the game and many more reasons players might stick with it in addition to Starfield. In this episode, Youtuber Loud Guns joins me to discuss this reason and how players might look at these 2 games going forward.

Since 2017 Star Citizen has jumped back and forth between barely playable and passable. Throughout all this time a combination of server and client-side optimizations needed to be made to improve the game. Some of these optimizations have occurred, but many more are needed.
So what does it take for your PC to run the game at 60 FPS, how long until we can all enjoy that stability, and is 2023 the worst performance we’ve ever had? Today I’m joined by Star Citizen benchmarker TenPoundFortyTwo to discuss.

As a gamer who comes from the likes up KOTOR, Mass Effect, and Deus Ex for my sci-fi fix in gaming, RPGs have a special place in my heart. So a new space RPG has all of my attention. The sci-fi game genre has been struggling for quite some time, creating the chance for something new to tentpole the genre. Will Starfield be that mainstream, quality space game the industry has been waiting for? Today, I’m joined by The Astro Historian to discuss everything we saw in the Starfield showcase in June and give our thoughts on who might enjoy the game.

Star Citizen has a lot of things going for it, in my opinion, but it’d be pure denial to say there aren’t some crucial ways the game could improve for its players.

2023 is shaping up to be the best year for Star Citizen “gameloops” the core careers like mining, cargo hauling, piracy, salvage, engineering, and racing all seem to be getting major upgrades. Along with this, there’s just plenty of development going on. I invited Youtuber Farrister on the show for a mid-year check-in on what Star Citizen even is in 2023, and whether you should be trying it.

As is tradition, the final weeks of May have revealed new ships and possible new plans for Star Citizen as a whole. But the new ships this year tell a slightly different story than before. This week I’m joined by Launch Sequence regulars The Astro Historian and execute from the Inforunners to discuss the new Mirai Fury, Tumbril Storm, RSI Lynx, and what their arrivals may mean for the immediate future of Star Citizen.

The Banu Merchantman, the MISC Expanse, the Hull C, these large ships have been sold with big promises of exciting and unique gameplay, but most still haven’t arrived. Today I’m joined by one of the biggest voices in star citizen ship content on Youtube STLYoungblood. We’ll be talking about the most exciting ship concepts, and what they could do for the game when they are built.

Welcome to the Launch Sequence episode 100, it’s a long time coming, but I couldn’t be more proud of it. I hope you enjoy it! 8 different interviews were conducted over the last few weeks to understand the thought process of people covering Star Citizen after the most turbulent update in the game’s history. With so many questions about the priorities of the game, who the game is currently being made for, and if it’s even worth playing right now, I couldn’t just get the answer of 1 or 2 people!

Over the last couple of years, there has been a noticeable shift of players from Elite Dangerous to Star Citizen. Being a very similar genre of game, this sort of switch makes sense, but I wanted to get a first-hand account of why exactly it was happening.

From the founding of Hurston Dynamics, to the current state of politics, Star Citizen is a pretty dark game when you consider all the lore involved. But why don’t we get to learn that through the game? In this pre-100 special, I’m joined by TheAstroPub to discuss how lore in Star Citizen is making a bigger impact with new features and factions coming, and how such a dark and dystopian game will continue to immerse players in its fiction.

With the unorthodox launch of 3.18 mostly behind, things are still left pretty “off”. With players essentially having played 3.18 for 3 months already, CIG is looking to launch a follow-up patch shortly after, in May. Today I discuss this upcoming patch with TheSpaceCoder, another Star Citizne Youtuber. We’ll look at included features, potential problems, and whether there will be a delay.

Star Citizen is having trouble with the long-awaited 3.18 update. And while each update has its origins, 3.18 may be suffering more than usual. Today Griffin Gaming, the leader of Sol Citizens, joins me to discuss the problems that confront players right now, how we might move past them, and of this was a big opportunity missed.

Item finders are an every-day tool of many Star CItizen players, but with update 3.18.1 their long-relied upon methods may need to change. With a change in the way items are stored in the game code, players may need to actually track down an item to know where it might be. This simple change could have huge ramifications for trade, cargo hauling, exploration, and data running in the near and distant future. I’ve invited the creator of the Star Citizen Universal Item Finder to discuss this change and what it could mean for the game.

Engineering, Physical Components, Tractor Beams, New Cities, and Underground facilities are all feature additions with a high chance of addition in the next year. Some are already confirmed for the next update. Today TheAstroPub and I discuss these new features in-depth, and how they change the game.

Many believe PvP is crucial to Star Citizen, many disagree vehemently. But PvP is not the only form of player interaction, and limiting these interactions can be a slippery slope. Where is the line drawn in regards to players affecting other players, and could Star Citizen thrive in a mixed system? Today i talk with Youtuber VoidyVids about why the game is the way it is, and if it could work strictly PvE.

After almost 5 years of waiting, Star Citizen has finally introduced the 2nd step in industrial gameplay, salvage. And while mining is still getting updated even in 3.19, salvage is not far behind it in development. Hull Munching, the next step in recycling dead ships for money, is possibly coming this year, along with new missions and a mission-giver opportunity surrounding the profession. So in this episode, I dive deep into the new profession with Youtuber, Dedleader.

New cities, new underground facilities, and new outposts. These 3 major archetypal locations could be the defining areas for gameplay in the future, and all are seeing major updates over the next few updates. Star Citizen has vastly improved location development over the last year, but the gameplay is still the same. In this episode of the Launch Sequence, I’m joined by YouTuber Starrstreams to discuss possible avenues for gameplay in these new locations, and how upcoming features could be tied in.

Many will agree, the most important feature in Star Citizen is server meshing. But server meshing is not just one feature, and it’s not just now being developed. Today, I’ll be joined by Unobtainium, the creator of ‘The Unoffical Road To Server Meshing’ (and a rock in Avatar), to look at the 9 year history of server meshing development, how the idea changed over time, and what it might look like in the future.

With the recent in-depth revelation of a large organized cheating/hacking ring in Star Citizen, many players are wondering why it matters or what they can do about it. Today, I’m speaking with 11’s Hangar about a cheating ring he has discovered along with others. With the ability to transport players anywhere, make any weapon rapid fire, and turn players invisible, this cheat could be mistaken for glitches, and can also change the testing environment. This special episode of The Launch Sequence hopes to inform players of what this could look like, how they can respond, and the ramifications of these cheats.

I have always wondered how Star Citizen would go about accommodating all its players with cities. They need a reason to exist, enough gameplay to take a considerable amount of time, and a convincing way to tie into a space sim. With the recent first look at the building interiors expansion planned for Star Citizen, I had to sit down with Youtuber DigThat32 to talk Star Citizen, the year ahead, and what these cities could mean for the game.

There are dozens of medical assistance groups in Star Citizen among other orgs dedicated to servicing players in the verse. As a game in alpha, it’s not a particularly easy thing to commit to, but these orgs are making it work. Join me in this interview with the CEO (Tr1stan) and COO (Regnion) of MEDRUNNER as we discuss their journey creating their medical organization and associated content, how they want to differentiate themself, and what could be the future for groups like these.

2023 began with a monthly report on Star Citizen development in November and December. Some of the topics of progress ended up being a bit of a surprise to the community, and it sounds like some significant game systems are already making good progress for the year. In this episode of the Launch Sequence, Youtuber SaltEMike has joined me to look at what we hope we might see, and what this monthly report seems to say about the rest of the year for Star Citizen.

As with every year, The Daymar Rally has arrived to drag players hundreds of kilometers through the scorched deserts of Daymar. This endurance race based on the real-life Dakar Rally draws in the biggest crowds in Star Citizen events, with 2023 pulling over 1000 players into the event. I’m joined by ATMO Esports Caster & partnership Manager Crucian Gaming to talk about their event, how the changing dynamics of Star Citizen continue to evolve it, and what interesting eSports competitions could spawn from Star Citizen.

From giant 100 player events to small bunker raiding parties, Star Citizen caters very well to group play. But there are many space enthusiasts and many players that want to go about their days solo. I’ve invited friend and creator DTOX_TV to discuss how the game can continue to work for the solo player, and what feasibility it holds right now. DTOX has recently released a video depicting his own org’s major fleet battle, you can find that video below.

While the cargo refactor does not necessarily push trading gameplay forward, it adds new incentive to try different forms of gameplay. Piracy has always been an option, but it is now being made more accessible, and possibly more profitable for players. I’ve invited Agensleti from the Mongrel Squad to discuss how pirates might use this gameplay mechanic, and what players can do to be ready for it.

In Star Citizen, no matter who you are or what you’re doing, as you move away from security areas, you will be at more risk. It’s important that players know how to defend themselves or successfully evade pirates, so I took the opportunity to bring in combat Youtuber Jonathan Winters to talk about the basics of what players might expect. We also discuss the reality of security versus non-security areas, and how this may all change with capital ships controlling the battlefield.

Star Citizen has relied on dynamic events for some of the best activities in the game over the last few years, due to a lack of other large-scale gameplay opportunities. But they have been hit or miss in execution, and have yet to really shake things up in terms of gameplay.

Star Citizen has been dominated by the 3.17 patch cycle for the majority of 2022, with fewer significant updates coming out on time, a progress wipe coming with 3.18, and the usual Star Citizen fatigue setting in, many players choose to play less or take a break. Today I talk with StarrStreams about how he feels as a new player in this cycle for the first time, and what he does to miss the burnout.

Cargo Hauling has always been a viable profession in Star Citizen, but it hasn’t necessarily been easy or enjoyable. Many have expressed excitement at the prospects of the upcoming cargo refactor in Star Citizen 3.18, but the limited nature of the rework may not meet the moment, and it’s very possible there are other more impactful changes that are needed to fix the career option.

One of the greatest things about Star Citizen is how wide-ranging and involved it aims to make various gameplay options. From mining to bounty hunting to cargo transport, you’re sure to get a unique experience however you play. But the professions are nowhere near finished, and many barely (or don’t even) exist at all. SalteMike & I take some time in this episode to discuss what choices you have, how they perform right now, and what we can expect from the various career paths in the future.

Star Citizen is a buggy alpha with a lot of development time and mistakes in its past. And most who follow the game know there is still plenty of work to be done. But is the work actually leading to a release? Will bugs continue to drag down the experience into nothing? Will Star Citizen Ever Actually be released? What is release? All of this and more in my hour+ long discussion with Grump Eye about the outlook of StarCitizen.

Piracy is one of Star Citizen’s most contentious topics. The acceptance of it is more linked to each player’s internal philosophy about the game, but everybody must accept that it IS part of the game. Today I talk to the leader of one of the most well-known pirate gangs in Star Citizen, Agensleti who runs the Mongrel Squad. We discuss the intricacies of piracy, why it’s the hardest way to play the game, and how critics might become more accepting of it in the future.

Star Citizen is many things if not detailed. With at least 5 known spacefaring alien species in the game lore, 2 of them had languages as stretch goals. Those languages have been learned and understood by hundreds now, and with real content being made in these languages by the studio, I thought it would be a good time to bring in some efforts to learn more.

A new juggernaut space game is on the horizon looking to prop the genre up with a big budget. No, I don’t mean Star Citizen, Starfield is being developed by Bethesda as a single-player space-based RPG, and while it’s no MMO space sim like Star Citizen it could offer many of the same interests: base building, zero-G travel, planet exploration, ship customization and more.

Star Citizen’s popularity continues to grow as we finish Q1 and receive the first update of the year. Development is moving fast, the year’s rewards are up in the air, and new players are jumping in every day. Today I’m bringing in a guest I tracked down on Reddit after seeing their testimonial. Not only did this player just start playing, they only found out about the game weeks ago. So let’s pick their brain to discover what their experience has been and what it’s like to jump into something like this blind.

From a relatively ignored and sometimes mocked patch to one of the best in a long time. Star Citizen Alpha 3.17 is currently in open testing before being pushed out to the live Star Citizen servers, and there is A LOT in this update that was not previously known about. So I brought in 2 Star Citizen veterans to talk about what’s in this update, why the additions are so important, and why the update is taking so long.

As of Star Citizen Alpha 3.17 there are not many characters in the verse. 2 of the existing characters, The Voice of New Babbage and Agent Rowena Dulli (of the Xenothreat Event), are portrayed by the same person. In today’s show I’m joined by the most recognizable voice in Star Citizen (besides ATC) to discuss what it’s like to be in Star Citizen and work with CIG, as well as her own background in gaming.

Star Citizen is an open game, it provides tools and dishes out consequences, which is true even in PvP gameplay. While there is a difference between piracy and griefing, the fact of the matter is both will occur. But where will they occur, why will they occur, and what can you do to avoid them? I discuss with Farrister and Avenger__One after their own discussion garnered a lot of attention.

Open development allows Star Citizen to share more about its development than almost any other game on the market, but that doesn’t mean everything is shared at all times. For years SC Leaks(now PIPELINE) has been a go-to destination for backers to learn just a little more about what’s going on in CIG, but just recently a massive shift has taken it in a different direction. Today I talk with the owner and founder of SC Leaks about this brand change, what led to it, and the history of the group as a whole. We also discuss other potential leaks this year and general Star Citizen news.
Note: This is primarily an informative podcast and is not meant to share leaks or take sides, don’t expect much unknown information. Enjoy!

Star Citizen exists in a small genre. Space Sims are popular, but they are few and far between. Elite Dangerous has announced that future console development is ending for the game. This could be good and bad for the PC side of game development going forward. While things could accelerate, this could be a sign of slowed development. Down To Earth Astronomy is a prominent name in the community who joins me for this episode to discuss the news, what it means for the industry, and how it might affect Star Citizen

A big part of what makes Star Citizen so great is the depth in gameplay options, the insane detail of ship interiors, and the diverse lore and atmosphere surrounding various locations. These details also slow the game down in development, and your ability to play. There is a spectrum of beliefs on this matter, generally correlating with when backers joined the project, but the question will always remain. Is the detail worth it? Join me and Youtube Farrister to discuss!

Whether good or bad, there’s no denying a lot is happening in Star Citizen’s development and across CIG as a whole. This has made for some interesting discourse over the past few weeks. I decided to call in Morphologis to talk a bit about his own recent video and why he had more to say than just those 6 minutes. We also discuss the features we are excited about, the Youtube space in Star Citizen, and the rest of the year's outlook.

Star Citizen is known for not playing the best, and while it doesn’t all come down to hardware it can make a difference. Today I’m joined by the main voice on the topic as we consider the different reasons for poor performance in-game, how you can fix them, and what CIG is doing to improve this aspect of the game. This is especially important given the major engine changes coming to the game over the next year.

PvP is a very common occurrence in Star Citizen if you want it to be. But what if you don't want to it to? And what about those NPC pirates, mercenaries, and hired kilometers that come looking for you? You'll need to fight back, and today I'd like to talk about whether Star Citizen is doing a good job of making that fight fun. Join me and Avenger One as we talk about ship combat, PvP, and whether Star Citizen is creating a good combat experience.

Oh boy. We’ve had another major public move from CIG regarding Star Citizen, and as we’ve seen, the communication has been a failure. DigThat32 joins me this week for an episode looking at some of the drama caused by the recent roadmap changes in the game, the problems that have led to this change, and how it could have been done better. There’s more to communication than simply talking, methods and timing are important, and it seems CIG is struggling to realize this.

Star Citizen is adding new interesting features left and right, and 2022 expects the first new star system ever, but it’s still struggling to take care of its own. From starter ship issues to a lack of any in-game tutorials, the new player experience in Star Citizen can be rough, even with the incredible community at your back. Griffin Gaming joins me to discuss this new player experience, talk about how it’s changing, and consider what the future might look like for new players.

Star Citizen has a lot of amazingly detailed space ships, but they aren’t always easy to get a good look at unless you want to spend hours in-game coordinating your vessel. STARJUMP GRIM joins me to discuss the new fleet viewer coming from StarJump, the differences from other offerings on the market, and how Fleet Viewer apps could evolve in the future to support full organization operations. Also discuss the future of Star Citizen gameplay in regards to ships. How will cargo refactors effect players, and how many citizens will end up giving up their large ships?

Star Citizen is set to have a big year in 2022, but it's not THE year. Salt E Mike joins me in this episode of the Launch Sequence to discuss the trajectory of the game, and at which point it will be ready for its big blowup. There are a lot of variables that can go into that, and given the state of the game, it’s likely to happen to some degree. Today we will explore what needs to happen for that to become reality.

This one’s going to be pretty casual. As I come up on 20 months doing this full-time, I prepare for the biggest change to Space Tomato Gaming yet I think it’s a good change that will result in everybody being just a little bit happier. But I want to do justice to anybody that will listen, and fully explain my decision. Thanks for listening to this holiday special episode, I’ll see you in January for a fantastic 2022.

Racing enthusiast Black Maze joins me this week to discuss the strengths of Star Citizen, what brought him over from Elite Dangerous, and what’s keeping him. We’ll also talk about the racing side of Star Citizen and what the future could look like for the profession. Also, is the honeymoon period over?

Star Citizen is funded by ship sales, and with over 100 ships in the game already, many believe they should be slowing down. With the recent introduction of 2 new very specific ships, the question sometimes comes up, “Does Star Citizen really need more ships?”. Today, The Astro Pub and Execute join me to discuss these new ships, the idea behind the massive amount of ship diversity this game continues to see, and whether this is something that will continue with Star Citizen. I hope you enjoy it.

Video games are a work of art, Star Citizen is an unorthodox video game. It has had unprecedented success in crowdfunding with $400 million raised, incredible growth worldwide with almost 1000 employees and millions of fans in several countries, and continues to draw in new players and host conventions around the world, all without releasing a game. Many question the validity of the project, but others are wondering if it can continue at this pace. In this episode, I speak with GriffinGamingRPG about the past, present, and future of Star Citizen, what sets it apart from the rest of the industry, and the hard truth about the project (it’s still a business).

While many newcomers to Star Citizen find the experience to be everything they've wanted. Many veterans, and even newbies, have grown tired of some of the major struggles of the alpha.

Star Citizen is meant to be a game, but it is also a very powerful tool. The newly premiered “Adrift” limited series is an example of how vast the creative possibilities are with a tool like that. Keenan sits down with Taige, Roger, and Jack, the director, writer, and producer of “Adrift” to talk about the inspiration to pursue a limited series in a video game and the challenges of pursuing that goal. There may also be an easter egg or 2!

Special guest Seggellion joins Space Tomato to discuss whether Star Citizen is actually a special project, or just another flash in the pan.
