News Elite: Dangerous Alpha Phase 3.0 Released (Video)

[Cody]

It#s really tough trying not to watch the video...

It's easy, T.j - I've been happily not watching vids since the Alpha was first released.

 

[Flavio]

Come on! Someone shoot the station! I want to see what happens!

The British navy had a go

I don't want to watch the video.......I want to see it first hand.


Must resist...........

Its so easy for us beta backers.. we don't have a choice!

 

[Cosmos]

I made a point of not watching anymore videos of Elite until First Round Beta hits my PC.

*sneer*

And to think I was happy to have pledged 20£...
I'm about to fry my brain.



PS: No insult is meant at all to those who pledged 20£ of course.

Thats looking like an amazing deal right now. I wish I had bought a few more copies at that price to gift to friends.

Resistance is futile.

 

[Dan Davies]

It has to be an npc or a programmed landing.

I'll take that as a compliment

 

[Rollo]

Ha ha! "Follow Federal protocol to avoid ship destruction!" That's brilliant, but bad news for the slow and loitering lot of Cmdrs. No sightseeing allowed!

Great video!

I thought you were also in charge of the scripted flying in the capital ship video too?

 

[KickahasTier]

It has to be an npc or a programmed landing.

Do you think the slight mis-alignment and correction when entering the station is artificial. Also wasn't the touch down a tad hard, I know it's not a helicopter, but it did look like "OK i'm aligned lets slam this thing down".

I'm not being a critic I think it was a awesome landing, landed by an experienced pilot.

 

[KickahasTier]

Must watch video again -- resistance is soooo futile

 

[KickahasTier]

Nice landing Dan

 

[Susimetsa]

Very nice landing, although I suspect this was after some training...

"ENTER HANGER" option after landing .. hmm

Said "hangar" when I watched it, so the developers are learning their language.

 

[breakpointUK]

Great idea for a video, tutorial and advertising!!! ... probably going to attempt landing without watching the video though!

Where was YouTube back when the original game came out

Where was YouTube back when the original game came out

Back then we had Public Service Announcements. Otherwise known as ThemTube. Rolf Harris telling you to learn to swim.

 

[Kinderman]

Stuck at work.... arrrgh!

Glad I never listened to Rolf Harris

 

[Ixnatifual]

What's this? Actual docking instead of a lame cutscene?

 

[NeilF]

I can only guess you can't fire on the station? Else someone would have by now!

 

[mikelowndes]

Hmm, I appear to be working at home today.







I definitely saw Empire capship, Eagle, and Imperial fighter assets download just then. May have been background pictures though.

Oh oh, Milky Way server downloading....! Wow.

OK, go on then, one more
