It’s worth mentioning that some of these adverts will undergo minor edits before they make their way into the game.

Our winners will be contacted in the coming days and will be flying home with a Community Prize Pack of their choice!

Keep an eye out, for the Holo-Screen Adverts will appear ingame in a future update, but here's a sneak-peek of some of them:

Congrats to everyone! I cannot believe you let Adam Woods' entry "Your Ad Here" be a winner too :O

 

[SushiCW]

Congrats to the winners!

Some of the Commanders listed above seem to have several entries under them... are those *all* winning entries? Or is it just one from each CMDR?

 

[Lightspeed]

Congrats to everyone ..... and they saved the best till last .... that last one about Friendship Drive is exceptional [up]

 

[Cosmo]

Congrats!

It's all of them (so yes, Mat2596 had six successful entries).

Note that quite a few of these have had minor edits to the final versions - the livestream showed the in-game versions including those edits.

Glad a couple of Fuel Rat adverts made it in, hopefully will save a few CMDRs some time down the line...

 

[IamNickMan]

Blown away! I love these!

 

[Vasious]

Well done to the winners, these are brilliant, look forward to seeing them in game

 

[Zoltah-Talion]

Some fantastic graphic design done here, congrats to all. Love the friendship drive one, but also really like the simplicity (and patriotism?) of "Do it for her."

 

[Olivia Vespera]

This is very cool!

I especially like Mat's, Michal's and Misha's ones.

 

[Ezzy]

Super cool designs! Grats!

 

[playfuldreamer]

Congratulations to the winners! All of them look great!

 

[Adept Geraden]

Apparently, Imperial ships speak for themselves, and don't need no advertising.

Congratulations to all the winners. I am merely jealous of your skills.

 

[etien]

congrats to everyone.
why so few? they were tons of decent proposal and this add a bit of well deserved diversity in the game. Could have gone for more winners imho. Maybe a memory restriction in dumb down xBox/PS4 concessions?

You do realise the lowest min spec PC is worse than consoles?

I was running ED on an 11" MacBook Air with integrated graphics card, which is not officially support, but i'm more inclined to think (min spec) PCs dumbed down the adverts

Nice false advertising there, you'll hear from my lawyers

Yeah, it's worth repeating that FD tweaked some of the original submissions shown in the OP, in several cases removing (or altering slightly) some of the additional wording. In the livestream you can see what is presumably closer to the final ads. I must say what I was blown away by is that not only have they chosen the winners, they've already done the work to get them in-game and showed the winning designs off at an in-game location (well, at least until Ed got blown up! ). I really had not expected that and thought there'd be a whole extra round of to-and-fro with the designers to refine the images and then implement them. Good job FD, it's terrific to see you really move quickly on something like this!
