It funny they turned off the comments on the live stream!

 

[K-NINE]

Ahhh... So 3.1 becomes the next Jesus patch.

...and we get a facial tracking video. It's not gameplay and it's not coming to a computer anytime soon so why...?

 

[Maruun]

The faces will be hilarious....

 

[Dooguk]

What happened to Miles Egghead?

 

[Winterwalker]

They lost the box at the ramp crash. Fission mailed.

Can't believe they left Melissa behind!

K .. back to the mumbled psychobabble.

 

[Marak]

So VOIP and FOIP is not in 3.0.

So what we've seen is not 3.0, it's something else.

I thought this was a 3.0 demonstration, but it isn't. I wonder what IS in 3.0 - can't wait to find out!

I guess...

 

[VidarSnipes]

That render to texture stuff works really nicely. Having a video call to another player and actually see their wrist-based view point is really nice.

I think at least one instance of it was scripted, though. The conversation right after getting into the rover was repeated for some reason, even though they were in a rush to reach a point where the demo has crashed earlier.

Strange isnt it? So 3.0 was what was playable at gamescom?

 

[Memnoch]

So is anyone clear on what will be in 3.0? I was only slightly more clear on what wouldn't be. So confused.

 

[MTBFritz]

Turned off the stream when Sean Tracy started to talk. Simple filler with boring stuff. Overall I m glad I didnt go there nor shelled out the 30 bucks....would ve been a complete waste regarding the return-value. I m out for now folks /cheers

Looked absolutely amazing to me. The seamless gameplay from space down to walking on a planet surface is jaw dropping. This is what I want to see in Elite in future.

 

[Slopey]

Who even asked for facial tracking? (which look awful).

What about cargo, commodities, trading, equipment, buying ships, a GAME LOOP?????

Who cares about facial stuff nobody is going to use when there is still no *game*.

Because CIG gets paid for dreams. You know this, I know this. Everyone here knows this.

CIG makes their money selling the future, not delivering on what is already done or doable. Just wait until they sell a ship or rover or something designed with mirrors and lots of reflective surfaces so you can see your own facial expressions while you play. It's coming.

 

[Knightshark]

Oh, they are selling hardware now too for face tracking!

 

[Mu77ley]

That has to be the most boring "gameplay" I've ever seen in any game ever.

 

[Slopey]

OMG - it's purely to sell an RSI branded webcam. Doh!

 

[Memnoch]

If anyone buys this hardware to play what they have to offer right now....words fail me.

 

[K-NINE]

HA HA HA HA HA HA H HA HA HA

You'll have to buy this special, RSI-branded camera to use the useless facial features!

Love it!

Didnt you listen? It was a preview of 3.1 something far in the future so the real 3.0 gameplay was the gamescom demo people could play at the SC booth.

By an idris. And an RSI motion capture device.
