So we can play in the external camera, like fighting, jumping, etc… or is the the camera devoid of a UI for the ship? (Sorry, can't watch the video yet).

Is there an eyepatch and can I purchase a parrot to sit on my shoulder?
You can do some flying around, but you will miss all critical instruments you really NEED for staying alive.. no radar, no target markers.. try finding a ship if you have no marker.. This is purely built for video's and photo's, not real game play. (thank fully)
Where there is a will, there is a way. I am willing to bet 100 tons of gold there will be videos of someone doing some awesome combat within a week.
You can fight in that mode, but there's no UI.
Cool! I was worried that it'd turn into a third person space shooter. Lol.

Ah I see, so there is no HUD on the external view. Still sound great to me, photos and clips are about all I would use it for.
Wish I could've seen some of the Holo-me creator options but if you can have blue medium length hair then it sounds like it's fairly in depth.
Did I hear this correctly, you can pan the camera around the inside of the ship now, not just the cockpit? I've wanted that feature for so long now.

Negative comment inbound, but I just don't get all the hype hysteria on the commander creator. Sure they've done it well but once you've messed around with it for a few minutes and looked at yourself in a few different camera angles so what? I mean they have had this in every first person or third person shooter for years, what's with it?
The Dolphin will please a small percentage of players so I'm happy for them and the cameras will be good for another small percentage of players who put a lot of effort into videos.
Let's see what Thursday brings because there's zero in 2.3 so far for me.

Yo, lizards? Really? LMAO!
I don't see why that would be a bad thing...
Yeah, I think (based on what little we've seen) they've really got it right. You can do combat in it, but you'd be at a big disadvantage doing so. So you can still capture great combat footage, but it doesn't make the 3rd person camera the mandatory view you have to use if you want to stay alive.
On second thought, and after further discussion with a few of my elite player bros, I'm actually super disappointed in the Dolphin ship announcement. 2 ships in a row geared towards exploration and passengers (excluding slf). If they don't announce a panther clipper or something else geared towards combat or at least multirole I will be a sad panda. I get that there are probably those that will love the dolphin, but just from my opinion and preference, I was hoping for something a little... cooler? I mean, another ship that is covered in glass and rather phallic in nature, no thanks bro. Won't buy that one either.
Rounds complete.

Lol @ Lizards
Careful with those jokes now, you might get folks' hope up that they could create Bossk from Star Wars, and then the hate train will come rolling into the station delivering the salt.
I can see it now....
Wait you mean there's no micro transactions for Lizards? OMG ED WHY? I hate you Frontier!
While the commander creator I think is REALLY well done, I have to agree. Once their created, you wont really see them unless you actually go into the camera suit, which is not mandatory for gameplay progression. Not to mention, NO ONE other than yourself will know what you look like in game.
MAYBE we will see each other when multi-crew comes out. That would be cool. To turn your head to see your copilot. It'd be even cooler if we could walk around in the ship. Assuming your commander crews are not holograms. Ya know, cuz of the whole instant transport to your ship thing.
Wooo this holo-me is bloody amazing imho ! \o/
It's far more beautiful than i expected based on an old video now.
It's an event also coz for the first time humans will be modeled ingame... not only machines... u get it ?
I really hope this will bring more humanity, more diversity, more tolerance... more adventures !
Maybe i will leave my eyepatch for this crazy cyborg eye too !

I'd really like to see some more "long hair" options for female characters.
I realize longer ponytails and shoulder length loose hair might be too problematic due to the helmet, soooo... how about some military style braids & buns instead?
edit: Also would love to see some cornrows, for males and females!
