After another break, Star Citizen is back on its weekly video series rollout as Inside Star Citizen makes its full return.
In this episode, players are first shown how CIG considers the creation of the various brands and manufacturers in the game, whether its ship builders like Origin or ARGO or weapons manufacturers,. The video goes into several considered details like visual language that identifies ships, weapons, and even groups or factions within the game and whether certain weapons manufacturers are known for making weapons that are fast-firing, good at long range, or have greater power per shot.
The video then closes out with a sprint report that takes a look at some logo design concepts for four new in-game brands, the addition of drop-down and scrollable menus to the Building Blocks UI engine as well as continued work on element resizing features, more work on gas clouds for the PU, yet another look at the cargo deck section of space stations, and a look at upcoming ship features like an expanded cargo bay for the Constellation Taurus and auto-docking for the Merlin and Archimedes into the Constellation’s docking port.
