In this video, the YouTuber discusses potential features that may be added to Star Citizen in 2024. While these features have not been officially confirmed by Cloud Imperium, the YouTuber believes they are likely based on information gathered over the past year. The first potential feature mentioned is Master Modes, which aims to bring balance and improvements to combat and flight mechanics. Hacking is another feature that has been hinted at by Cloud Imperium, and the YouTuber expects it to be revealed soon, as it may be necessary for Squadron 42. Bounty Hunting version 2 is also anticipated, as it has undergone significant development and could enhance the gameplay experience. Weather effects, including storms and rain, are eagerly awaited by players, and the visual effects team is reportedly eager to work on these features. Fauna, such as creatures and animals, are expected to be introduced to the game in the second half of the year, adding more life and diversity to the universe. Points of interest, including settlements, outposts, and bunkers, are set to expand, providing more locations for missions, trading, and social interactions. The NPCs in the game are also expected to improve over the course of the year, with better behaviors, abilities, and day-night cycles. Base building is another highly anticipated feature, with development set to begin in the first quarter of the year. The physical damage system, known as Maom, is expected to have a significant impact on combat, allowing for more realistic damage based on weapon type and location. Player homes and housing are also in the works, and progress has resumed on building interiors. Finally, the YouTuber mentions that performance, stability, and quality of life improvements will continue to be a focus, with bug fixes and optimizations to enhance the overall gameplay experience.
