One word - impressive

My heart is pounding.

My eyes are teary.

I'm going to have to go for a walk to calm down a bit.

Tremendous stuff!

(Can't wait to show this to my daughter tomorrow)
 
Can't wait to get home an put it on my tv and show the kids. :cool:

Already downloaded at 1080p with that in mind. Somehow I don't think there'll be much 'disappointment' !

Cheers,

Drew.

Thanks very much to the devs for nowing the soon, and here's to many more soons to now. Clink!

Loved the footage, and how the gameplay mechanisms were kind of hinted at. The Fed Cruiser requesting assistance, message popping up in the player's cockpit, they accept and hyperdrive to join the battle. If you were allied with the imps, you'd presumably have got a help request from the Imperial Cruiser instead.

Also, some awesome details, like the cockpit window frosting up as the ship prepares to jump, and then melting away as the auto-defrost function does its job. Just a thought, but it would be really cool if you started to get condensation if the atmosphere in the cockpit starts heating up...

One good thing about this footage is that it keeps me occupied until the Godus beta is released later today. I can just watch it on repeat. One bad thing is that the Godus beta is now by far the least exciting thing of the day.

Agreed, shame for Godus I was really looking forward to Beta but this has just blown it out of the water (or should that be space?). I can't stop watching it, it's just too cool :cool:
 
trailer looks awesome, but where's the synthesizer theme for the Logo?

That's just trailer music, right? Don't tell me they are going for mainstream sample orchestra / overblown Wing Commander/Star Citizen sound-a-like for the game?
if that is the case please build an mp3 player into the cockpit
 
ZOMG!

Yea this is exactly what we're all looking for!

Particularly like the nice laser beam burns in the hull - hope that makes it into the game.

I'm hoping this is what in game will be like and not an intro/marketing video. Thanks for clarifying that there is some post-processing going on and mockups.

Very very good job team though, more than I was expecting!

They did say that this was put together to allow the composer to showcase their work I would doubt very much the music will play in game at all times and like every other game released it will have options for turning off the music.
 
That Video exceeded my expectations. If that is truly representative of what the end game is going to look like I'm starting to realise I did not pledge enough!
 
Absolutely brilliant, Though i really hope that DB changes his mind and will implement Oculus Rift support because those views around the cockpit cries out for it.

They are interested in supporting OR, but they want to finish game first. It could easily come as post-release patch.
 
Just as Expected

Just as Expected, right up my alley :). Your Engine looks Great, thnx for showing. I cant imagine how you have been able to live over the years knowing that you had this already started in your computers.
 
Hoping next vid will have a fight where you can see shields getting hit and effects of it fizzle out after a prolonged combat. As awsome this vid was i dident have the feel of any ships had any shields active exept the small figthters.

mostly a lurker here but I have to compliment the team for this fantastic word. As many already said, it exceeded my expectations by far. I particularly appreciate the art direction and the "feel of flight", in the cockpit views I really get the impression of how flying a personal spacecraft would be like. The downside is that now it's even harder to wait for the beta :p

On a related note, somebody said he's downloading it, would be so kind to tell me how? The youtube player really hates me :(
