I Tested Every Graphics Preset in Star Citizen’s Genesis | Genesis and Starchitect Testing

Описание: After over 20 hours across four Genesis tests, I’m struggling to go back to live Star Citizen. This latest test brought new Starchitect locations, moisture farms, more biomes, working missions and NPCs that repeatedly kicked my ass. We also tested quasi-dynamic planetary server meshing, with three servers sharing the work on Nyx 1.

In this video I’ll go through what changed and what happened when I went exploring, from running deliveries in a Skylark to sneaking into a heavily defended facility and making the terrible decision to walk six kilometres through a swamp. There are still bugs and things CIG needs to figure out, but I’ve never been happier to be a backer. Detailed performance testing is coming in a separate video.

💫 About Captain Katarn – The Astro Adventurer
Hey there, I’m Tim — aka Captain Katarn of Intrepid Dawn.
I’ve been through the highs and lows of MMOs from Star Wars Galaxies to EVE Online, and now I chart the uncharted in Star Citizen.

This channel is where I dig into systems-driven games that let you live the adventure not just follow a script. From deep game mechanics to raw, unscripted storytelling if the game lets you choose your path, I’m already in.

Whether you’re a fleet commander, a solo hauler, or just here for the banter, welcome aboard.
