News Another sneak peek at Horizons progress (Base Raid)

[Robert Maynard]

Wow!

That is all....

.... apart from - Thanks very much for another peek at Horizons progress!!

 

[Jon flint]

Yes, it is vette. Let's photoshop it to get dimensions by a compare to something

This is the best shot of the ship I could grab before the bloom from the engines washes everything out. Difficult to make out any detail




Most certainly a corvette though...

+bear in mind, I am doing this on my phone. You may get better results on a pc!

 

[LARY STARKEEPER]

Corvette sighted

 

[Flimley]

This.. Will be amazing. !

 

[Sir.Tj]

Bracing for inevitable Kerrash reaction.....

 

[PhanttoM]

Now excuse me, I need to go — I'll be watching this video over and over again for the next hour or so.

 

[Kyokushin]

Hm... so IF they have vette here, maye we get beta ships in horizon beta?

 

[Moonax IRL]

Very impressive,great work Cmdr`s.

 

[VR Mr Teatime]

Integrated with wings I see - coming together nicely.

Oh and SQUUUUUEEEEEEEE!!!!!

 

[bitstorm]

Yeah was just about to post, that's not a Python what is it?

I was going to suggest a very large combat skimmer.

some pics

Spoiler

That last pic, you can just make out the top of the ship as it banks, looks almost like a turret.

I was going to say if it is the Corvette then that's really interesting, given how maneuverable it looks near a planet vs say how you'd imagine the Conda. But I suppose there's no atmosphere is there, so flight aerodynamics are irrelevant and if it's not a huge body then gravity may be small meaning essentially a "close to space" flight model.

It's a pity the buggy hud doesn't have a gravity meter, but I suppose yoiu could just check the system map anyway for that. =p

 

[Retrograde]

Wow! That looks fantastic fun! ... and totally suicidal on the part of the attackers.

Nice progress on the dust raised behind the other buggy! That looks nice.

 

[DaSucker]

Amazing stuff! Wow!

 

[Genar-Hofoen]

THIS IS AWFUL....LY AWESOME!

When that ship flew past, I may have uttered some joyous colourful metaphors

 

[Rubbernuke]

This sums it up well

[amigacooke {macOS}]

Who is this Braben bloke who keeps leaking dev material ... oh right

- - - Updated - - -

This sums it up well

No it doesn't, the gif is really annoying and repetitive.

 

[Agony_Aunt]

This is me right now...

[VR Morgan Grimes]

Love it!!!

I kinda hope that one of the tweaks is the sound levels, I know it's still a vacuum and the ship/srv is creating the sound for feedback but the Corvette going overhead needs to be silly (duck as low as you can get, impact imminent, rude word me(we've all seen that spitfire video right?)) loud in my opinion

 

[Iskariot]

That looks great.
I sure hope I can raid a base on my own too.
I'm not much of a multi player guy.

 

[[VR] Mad Mike]

I wonder if the bases will just be one or two

or if there will be a lot, OR better yet

if they will be procedural with some tiny ones and some huge sprawling ones?

Also will the "style" of them change

 

[Tinman]

Yeah yeah yeah...but what's the point with these empty planets...there is nothing to do!!!!!!
