00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:19,039
amazing tech prizes. For more info, visit the modus Facebook page or

3
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:20,880
modus.com. It's finally here. DFM, dog

4
00:00:19,039 --> 00:00:24,800
fighting module, arena commander, star citizen, fighter, whatever you want to

5
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:29,359
call it, it has finally released and we have decided in our insanity to test it.

6
00:00:27,519 --> 00:00:33,040
Just to remind you guys, this is a pre-alpha release. A pre-alpha release

7
00:00:31,599 --> 00:00:37,360
that is like we're lucky it's not setting their server room on fire. I

8
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:40,960
spent the majority of my time testing this game just trying to get it to

9
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:45,120
launch because that was extremely difficult. And if those are things that

10
00:00:42,879 --> 00:00:47,760
are going to annoy you, don't bother because it's going to happen. There's

11
00:00:46,559 --> 00:00:53,360
going to be problems running this game. It's going to be difficult. It is a pre-alpha. All of that being said, we

12
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:57,039
wanted to test this game because we see this question all the time. Can I run

13
00:00:55,360 --> 00:01:00,800
Star? And a lot of people look at this game as it's extremely hard to run and

14
00:00:59,359 --> 00:01:04,879
all that kind of stuff. And yes, that's true. It's not easy to run, but in its

15
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:08,479
current form, without any extensive graphics options and without any of the

16
00:01:07,119 --> 00:01:13,360
ludicrous things that we're expecting them to do with the graphics in the future, it's not actually that bad.

17
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:18,080
We'll get more into that in a second. So, you'll be able to see with this video a rough estimate of how well

18
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:22,000
you'll be able to run this game with these graphics cards. But in the future,

19
00:01:20,479 --> 00:01:26,320
this may not apply. with the release of alpha or beta or even the full game,

20
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:29,360
these numbers will be very different and we'll probably update you along the way,

21
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:34,799
although we'll ask for feedback for you guys from that point. I was kind of surprised to see the results that I got

22
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:38,479
while running at 1080p due to expecting this game to be a lot harder to run than

23
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:41,840
it actually was. The only results that kind of surprised me a little bit were

24
00:01:39,759 --> 00:01:45,040
the AMD ones. Although before the AMD guys run down into the comments and

25
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:49,360
start freaking out, don't worry guys. The second we jump up to 1440p, the

26
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:55,520
story kind of changes a little bit and we see that trend we've been seeing lately where AMD cards are running very

27
00:01:52,799 --> 00:02:00,079
well at higher resolutions in comparison to its competitors cards, which is kind

28
00:01:58,159 --> 00:02:03,439
of interesting actually. And I'm expecting if we win even higher in the

29
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:08,800
resolution, we'd see this trend start to scale out even more. I don't necessarily

30
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:11,120
expect NVIDIA or AMD to be rushing out

31
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:14,239
driver improvements to tune themselves to this game. It's a pre-alpha. That

32
00:02:12,879 --> 00:02:18,400
wouldn't really make a lot of sense. So, don't expect any help in that aspect.

33
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:21,280
That being said, who knows what Robert Space Industries might do. They could

34
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:27,120
release a patch that makes it harder to run. They could release a patch that makes it easier to run. Who knows? It's

35
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:32,400
a pre-alpha. We will have to see. Although, as of right now, it's not that

36
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:35,599
ridiculously hard to run. It's not an easy game to run by any stretch of the

37
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:40,560
imagination, but I actually kind of expected it was going to be harder to run than it is. So, that's actually kind

38
00:02:38,879 --> 00:02:45,040
of a relief. It looks absolutely beautiful and it's feasible to run on a

39
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:48,560
fairly high-end system, which is actually pretty cool. Upon launching

40
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:54,000
into the hanger module, all you need to do is pick a ship. Personally, I'm going to go with my Super Hornet because it's

41
00:02:52,319 --> 00:02:58,239
a freaking Super Hornet, so I don't really know why you'd pick anything else

42
00:02:55,360 --> 00:03:03,519
currently in the dog fighting module. It looks amazing. Uh fairly recently

43
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:06,959
they've updated some of the animations uh that that go along with getting in

44
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:14,000
the ships and stuff. So this is pretty cool. I'm going to show you guys this part just before we're able to select

45
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:14,000
what module we actually want to

46
00:03:23,239 --> 00:03:29,519
run. All right. Looks great. Sounds great. That's all good. That loads up

47
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:34,239
the arena commander thingamajiggy. You can't do spectrum match yet. So, we're

48
00:03:30,959 --> 00:03:37,360
going to do drone sim. And then we could

49
00:03:34,239 --> 00:03:38,959
try the van duel uh swarm, but I don't

50
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:41,599
necessarily recommend doing it if you're going to benchmark because it is quite

51
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:44,599
random. So, we're just going to do freef flight.

52
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:49,920
Once we launch in here, this is the ideal starting position. Sometimes it'll

53
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:54,159
start you looking a little bit further down, but you see this animation which really screws with your frame rate. So,

54
00:03:52,879 --> 00:03:57,360
try to make sure you're facing about this position.

55
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:03,319
and then kind of just look up and I target out of one specific massive

56
00:04:02,159 --> 00:04:07,200
asteroid first and then I kind of just fly in

57
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:12,879
this direction and shoot at it every once in a while. Once I get really

58
00:04:09,519 --> 00:04:15,160
close, I will turn to the right until I

59
00:04:12,879 --> 00:04:20,079
see another big cluster of asteroids and then fly towards a large asteroid within

60
00:04:18,079 --> 00:04:22,800
that cluster. And then I just continue doing this until my 2-minute benchmark

61
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:31,280
is done. And I'm not going to bother to show you guys the rest of it because it is kind of very dumb.

62
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:32,960
So, um, is it launching now? No. No. You

63
00:04:31,280 --> 00:04:36,919
know what's funny is how many hundreds of dollars that we've spent on this

64
00:04:34,639 --> 00:04:42,199
game. Yeah. Yes. friends, for less than the

65
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:47,600
amount that some of us have spent on digital crap for a game

66
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:53,040
that isn't even close to release yet. Dollar Shave Club delivers actual real

67
00:04:49,919 --> 00:04:56,080
physical nonbroken razors. Yes, they

68
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:58,080
actually work. They actually work

69
00:04:56,080 --> 00:05:01,199
directly to your door once a month so you don't look like a hobo, even if your

70
00:04:59,840 --> 00:05:05,199
bank balance would indicate that you could easily be one, thanks to Star

71
00:05:03,280 --> 00:05:08,639
Citizen. Also, speaking of not a lot of money, unlike large mega corporations,

72
00:05:07,039 --> 00:05:13,919
Dollar Shave Club doesn't waste their resources creating vibrating

73
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:17,199
razors. Probably no razor should work like that. With like pickle grabbers on

74
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:21,280
the back of them, then making expensive Super Bowl ads about their latest

75
00:05:18,840 --> 00:05:24,639
monstrosity. Instead, they save money by partnering up with small content

76
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:28,000

83
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:55,680
like this video about Star Citizen performance, pre-alpha Star Citizen

84
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:58,160
performance in one particular module and a couple of games and a couple

85
00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:01,680
resolutions. Anyway, that's the whole point. Dislike it if you thought it

86
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:05,199
sucked. Give it a share if you think other people need to know about this

87
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:08,880
exciting new game so that they can all throw all of their money at it the way

88
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:12,720
that we did. Leave a comment and let us know what you'd like to see in terms of

89
00:06:11,039 --> 00:06:16,240
Star Citizen benchmarks from us moving forward or if you'd like us to just shut

90
00:06:14,319 --> 00:06:20,319
up and stop talking about it. And as always guys, you the support link is in
