Thats odd. An E3 video with actual gameplay... Or wait, is this not E3?

Im partly joking with that but compared to some other developers and even Elite videos it is mostly gameplay and not computer video rendered rubbish. Nice trailer either way, I look forward to the arena assuming there are rules like Eagles only in certain fights etc.
Could be fun. :)

Edit: Having watched E3 check out the carefully rendered need for speed and mass effect videos. Point proved, microphone dropped, I'll be here till Sunday.

Cool!

I know people complained because of it but more content and a way to learn PVP is always good in my books.

And eagles should get more love in game, amazing ship, I would love to race / fight in one of them.

The arena looks fun. I'll enjoy it immensely more than that other big space game in the works because our controller schemes are balanced with one another in ED. Mouse users don't have a ridiculous advantage and vice-a-versa. Flying in and out of those stations while fighting will be a nice diversion.

I play duel mode exclusively in Chivalry: Medieval Warfare. I see no reason why we shouldn't have this mode in ED. Who knows... maybe it'll convince more players to try open and then stick with it.

Once of my first pvp experiences was having a dog fight around an outpost and it was great.

This will be a nice diversion until FD get round to fixing the fixes they implemented in 1.3 which broke the game for me.

Well, not too overwhelmed by the look of it, but if that can help keeping the people who like to 'blow ship up' for lulz then great.

Cheers for posting the link - I'll probably get my butt kicked since I've only played Solo, but would love to give this a go. Playing in such tight-quarters will really give a better sense of speed & direction than open space.

p.s. what's the ship in the middle at 24 seconds in the video? I don't recognise it (the one behind is an Eagle).

So it's Carmageddon... in space? Eagle and Type-9 in a race, better get out of way or you'll be pancakes.

Looks great. And if it gets around insurance when you're killed then even better. No more combat loggers, well, less of them.

CQC is a natural fit for the Xbox One release so it made sense to release it there first. It will be coming as a free update to PC and Mac later in the year.

We understand the reasons but it makes more sense for the current pvp community to be testing a pvp mode in ED as they've put about a years worth of play time in to the game and hundreds of hours of flying and testing.

You're not already listening to the current pvp community as you're latest "undocumented cargo fix" broken pvp piracy.

Maybe you should start listening to the current players and testers before bringing in a fresh load who have little to no experience with the game.
