I think it's very easy to make statments about how obvious something was in hindsight.
Especially when you said it beforehand as well....

A citation would be a killer there
Can Stigbob provide this? I made no guess, I simply didn't know and do not mock those that, without the benefit of hindsight, guessed incorrectly.
Define "this" and I'll happily give it a bash.
That trailer was unambiguously about the Krait mk II, anyone watching it and coming away thinking "the pilot had some feet !, space legs confirmed" is just fooling themselves.
I was referring to your Krait vs Spacelegs comment earlier:
It's self evidently a spaceship advert, there's no guesswork required at all as the ship is the focus of the advert.
Guys seriously...
Off-topic alert![]()
I can't see FD bringing back the Dev diaries.
Back then, during early development, so many promises were made that have yet to be realised 4 years down the line...
I doubt they would intentionally throw themselves into that pit again!
Yes, it is now, I'm hoping you will be able to quote yourself saying so (with a similar degree of certainty).
Maybe it was just a trailer for the ship that featured in the trailer.
Lynx deodorant does not get you girls, redbull doesn't make you fly and not all headache pills make you go rollerblading.
It's almost as if taking advertising literally is daft.
Here you go from the thread about the trailers launch, this is me replying to people who were convinced it was spacelegs.

The problem with that trailer is not that it's showing a person walking down the hangar. There's nothing new to that. We've already seen this in the original trailer and I would expect such representation also in other games that don't have first person.
So what's really new and never seen before actually?
-THE LIFT ANIMATION
-THE CONTROLS UNFOLDING AROUND THE PILOT SEAT
Now, since this trailer is mainly about the new ship, are these two features specific to the Krait Mk II only?
NO! All big ships got a lift (the entry is very similar to the ASP) and the seat with the unfolding controls is preatty standard.
So the big question is...
WHY FDEV IS SHOWING SUCH DETAILED FEATURES, UNRELATED TO THE KRAIT, ONLY NOW?
This is the unanswered question that generated so many speculations!
The lift and the controls are parts of the Krait, it's like in a car advert when they show you the dashboard. They are just showing off
their dashboard not teasing speedometers.
Hi Frontier. Any chance for dev diaries making a come back? Even on a monthly basis... Just a few sentences to comment on what's in the works and maybe a single screenshot of sneak peek preview of some in-development stuff.
You would make a lot of the community happy with that and I reckon there would be much less salt on the forums...
Pretty please?
Yes but here the commercial is about the game not about a ship. If you do the commercial of a car you don't show a dashboard different from the car that you want to sell.
On top if the trailer is in game engine it means that those animations exists for real and someone spent the time and the effort to develop them! I'm quite sure that when we will be able to walk around in the ship we will see those things again!
