I live in Sarasota man. That's just everyday life.

Mike I know you said you don't like doing vids like these because they're not "professional" but honestly, these are my favorite videos right now. Since I'm not in Evo I can't see for myself what the builds look like, and these commentaries on what it was like for YOU are so much better than the leaks which I think probably frustrate CIG since they break the NDA. Please keep these up and if you find anything new this weekend I'd love to hear your experiences! Please do a quick check and see if you can easily find a ship that's in space away from a station (i.e. quit to menu while in a ship in space) to see if you can find it with the new Starmap - that would be a game changer for me as I've lost so many ships to various CTD issues where I just couldn't FIND them!

I agree with this, i really dont mind low effort content. This is just quick info. Maybe a simple intro outro gives it that little pollish. Easy make once and copy paste in on every quick video

this isn't the first time for one of these, did you ever figure them out mike? i swear the last one was around 6 minutes too on a previous video

It’s so relieving to hear the starmap is actually good. I was so crushed to hear the starmap was almost worst than the current starmap in the last Evo build.

Don't make assumptions of early evo builds, not even of ptu builds. That's their job, bring features in, resolve bugs and make the build stable and so on. First build will be always a mess.

There are a bunch of channels creating 'professional' videos that are glorified sales pitches for the game, but I really appreciate this kind of ground truth video for those of us actively following the development. Thanks for being willing to do both Mike.

They did the same thing for Cyberpunk2077, they meaning content creators. That's why its good practice to believe nothing many of them say, who at the core, are just self-serving assh*les and clickbait merchants, although these days, very obvious. With Star Citizen CC'ers practice some of the worse cases of outright deceit.

Not all, but many SCCC form these clicky, creepy little relationships, offering up useless opinions, spewing out verbatim from the frequent CIG's postings, clickbaiting or stealing anothers hard work,interspersed with their own verbal diarera, DGB30 and BoredGamer being two of the worst culprits.

@@moonasha The general consensus was that the map felt exactly like the old one. And considering the current one has been that way for 5+ years now, clunky and hard to use. The idea was that it was entirely the same case, new layer of paint but its still the same old rust bucket underneath.

@@cookiejarvis3856 Yeah, but people still need to temper their expectations a bit during evocati builds. Same thing happened with initial leaks about the new water physics. Some people prematurely freaked out because it looked terrible in the initial evocati build. Now if a feature gets to PTU and appears in a bad state, that might be a time to start to worry.

I mean, evocati is not even in wave 1 yet... idk what you guys were doing jumping to conclusions from a very skeletal evocati build

As someone who is never awake when you stream, for Evo updates, I really like these debrief low effort videos. Awesome to hear that there is progress from your last experience

I think this type of video is actually pretty neat. I also liked when you made a list what to check out during stream with chat. Thanks for keeping us in the loop!

Awesome! Thanks for sharing your experience in detail.

love this low effprt vids! Fast, short and informativeGG

Good to hear, thanks for the update!

Thank you for taking the time to keep us up to date. Really appreciate it.

Great video man. Honestly, the more candid and "unprofessional" feel of these update videos kinda fits the haphazard nature of the Evo tests as a whole anyway. Keep em coming!

I'm in Evo and I appreciate these videos because we always miss something. I learned a few things that I didn't know about from this video. Keep it up.

Appreciate you updating us in a very real, unfiltered way. With not all of us being able to play these builds or have much visibility into what's going on, it's really nice to hear your input as you're able to distill the situation very succinctly and clearly. Keep doing what you're doing, brother.

Great update Mike! always looking forward to them! I really don't expect a live until Invictus, possibly just a open EPTU at that point but it sounds like data mining has found Invictus stuff in 3.23. Here's to hoping as we definitely have time for them to smoothen it out.

I think these videos are fantastic. I appreciate the general recap, so I'm not having to go around a million sources to figure out what's going on with the game. I also like how you're willing to talk about the negatives and give a genuine opinion, rather than sugarcoating everything like so many channels do. I've been here since 2013 and I wish I would have found your channel sooner. I actually like this your content isn't over produced. I hate bloat in videos where you just want quick info.

Thanks for the updates! I like these videos, especially as I'm not Evo and you go straight to the point. bravo 👏

I love this style of quick update video. Please keep them coming.

Keep ‘em coming man, enjoy the quick updates 🤙🏻

It's nuts that they're also delivering split Replication Layer along with all these features and reworks. The QA on so much mixed content is insane

I honestly like these short informative videos. Thx! (You could even cut this to a short summarizing)

Good to hear progress :)

I do like these additional videos from you. I don't watch the react channel or live streams so these short videos are excellent.

Thanks for the news!

Thanks for the info Mike! This is some great stuff!

Love that you are doing more update videos like this now.. Im sure the NDA lift on evocati patch notes and gameplay helped alot on the content availability

thanks for the update!

quick summary is great, thanks!

Great vid. Really like the style.

Nice editing Mike. always nice to have relevant visuals.

Love this. This takes a lot of effort Mike, you have to play for hours and then summarize the information into bite sized pieces for us. I know how frustrating this version of the game is, so I appreciate you spending your night grinding through this! Keep up the great video content!

Thanks for the update, Mike!!

Dude, seriously appreciate that you stayed up and made a video. Thank you.

I really appreciate these new videos, honestly. I can't catch your stream because of time differences and most of the other creators putting out updates are simply reading the patch notes rather than giving their experience or opinion, which is fine obviously, but I prefer this style where I'm actually hearing someone's experience of actually testing the new features; it's cool.

Thanks for the update! Really great to be hearing about the progress of Evo. From the outside it was always way too obscure.

No music, no nothing; just facts!! in a world of sheer overload of senses, this was informative and relaxing!! enjoyed it very much!

I honestly love these vids, since i dont often catch u streaming and they are just informative and short which is real nice.

Glad to hear actual progress is getting done

Well done, thanks for the information

All facts we want to hear! Thank you, Mike! :D

Love these videos! Keep them up, please!

Im glad you make these videos. I need the info and cant always watch the stream

Star map is so darn exciting! Also, keep these short update videos coming when there is stuff to share.

These videos are not low effort. They are key to keeping us informed. I appreciate these videos Mike.

The low effort is not a problem when it's just a quick update. I really appreciate these updates, as it's really hard for me to keep up with my work and life schedule. Keep it up!

Thanks for the update! Sounds like we're finally seeing some progress that we've been wanting for a long time.

very nice to have this brief format. I like the conveying of important updates non evo players cant experience themselves without discussing everything in detail to much.

I really like to hear this type of info...thanks Mike

Super excited about this update. Thanks for the honest feedback on your experience.

i like these videos. just straight up whats happening as soon as it happens cant go wrong

Hey brother, thanks for the update, btw you have a sharp noise in 7:19

yes we love your updates, thanks ! :D

Thanks, Mike! Keep the info coming!

Keep doing recaps! I'm in evo and somehow missed some of these hidden details.

how sick would a Lethal Company type mission be where there's like a disabled 890 or idris or something and someone has to open doors and whatnot from an engineering panel for another person on foot going through the ship while fending off bad guys or creatures

These are my favorite type of videos to watch. Often times I just want an update on the current state of what everyone is waiting on. Happy to hear things are getting better!

Enjoyed this quick update a lot. Thanks for pushing through it and even loosing sleep over it. Interesting times and would love to hear more of Evo testing/progress! Thank you!

Thxs for this it’s a nice update. Keep them going.

thank you for sharing, mike

Oh boy, we can now farm copium! I bet that wasn't an accidental name choice Best videos, btw. You are basically doing what progress tracker was allegedly meant to do - tell about actual progress. And tamper expectations, so that's actually nice and useful. I think that's what CIG also wanted to have with their relaxed NDA approach - add some context to leaked images and videos.

I do enjoy these, THANK YOU!!!

Worth pointing out that the Kopions (dogs) don't attack when they're on their own, they will only attack in a pack. If you encounter one alone it will seek it's friends before dealing with you

glad you're telling us of your experience in evos. Im very anxious to play 3.23

I really, really do like these videos. They have a place on your channel, keep them on!

Super good and informative and time saving for us.

These types of vids are totally fine given the nature of the updates. As someone who can't play it yet, and prefers for the Live version anyway, I love hearing the feedback of the current state of things. Low effort or not, it's good stuff. Not every video has to be an edited up masterpiece, ya know?

Effort or low effort people are here to watch you and your insight, feedback still good to listen to

I love these mini evo updates, thank you! Don't do these if you don't want to.... I'm happy to get reacts when you're ready to roll them into an update at your own pace. Regardless, thanks for all you do to report on Star Citizen, I always appreciate that you are very clear about what you know are facts, things that you perceive, and your thoughts on available information. For other content creators that I follow, I appreciate their views as well, but you do the best job of being clear on facts, hypotheses, and your own biases.

Thanks Mike, yes this is super valuable info. Please keep it coming!

Totally appreciated ... thank you

I appreciate you taking a little extra time for those of us who can't catch streams. I caught like 2 on sick days. Lol

I just want to play, I really hope it's ready for April.

ur the man, keep it up playa

Love your honest takes Mike.

Hey mike at 7:19 there is a short blip in the audio. Just some feedback :)

Good videos! I like them.

I have a question, for the StarMap, Is it planned for there to be landscape features when you zoom into the planet? Or maybe clouds when you zoom into Crusader?

There is also a clickable button to set the route on the star map below the target location bracket on the left side, no need to click the X and additionally press R.

I think that you could do more off the cuff videos like this. It seemed pretty good to me 😊

Just ton make sure I get it properly: for now, we can't place markers in the middle of the space / in a planet if no minimap is already available here right?

great updates thanks

The speed of progress in sc really blows me away at the moment. Can't believe all of that is truly coming in 3.23. I'm excited!

This content is actually great Mike. For those of us who aren't Evo, its great to hear how the tests are going.

Good vid. I like listening to you. Way better than reading pipeline

Really appreciate this video

Quick question.....does the new inventory UI permit stacking of like items?

I'm fine with that. Might seem a ways away, but the amount of content in this patch sets the stage for 4.0, all while bringing a ton of stuff too. There's so much content in this patch the rumours about the new vehicles hasn't been nearly as prevalent for Invictus as previous years.

I want to know more about the Custom Markers.. Do thy (or wIll they be viewable to your party and are they sharable otherwise.

Na mate - this format is great for a quick update. I love it. A huge fan of the channel too & ATC as well. If you can keep the frequency up, this content is on-point! 🤜🤛

I quite like these short updates.

It sounds promising! 👌

I appreciate the video. Your analysis feels more honest than cheerleader, and makes me hopeful for a game at the end of all this honestly.

Yup. Keep the updates coming.
