First contact today!

Words cannot describe the chills I got.

The hyperspace interdiction... the scan thing it does, even the animation it plays when the unknown vessel jumps to FTL...fdiufiudasjfiodajfiopdajfiodajfda.
 
That looks cool. I wonder what aggravated the Thargoid?

I hope there's some Thargoid mothership or space-station out there that dwarfs a Farragut.

I'd call it fake cause of the stupidity, but knowing how people play in open I am not really that surprised.
 
If anyone wants to head over, the system in the vid is pleiades sector OI-T C3-8

I'm heading from Sagittarius A* to Colonia and I'm still 7000LY's out from Jaques so I'll get back to you on that in some weeks (or months).

If this is aliens for real I would actually be concerned about more isolated colonial locations like Colonia, Maia, Robigo etc. being vulnerable to potential alien incursions.

WinAmp RNG was perfect again: from Duke Nukem 3D soundtrack the song (Departure) that sounds quite a bit like 'V' theme... [alien]
 
this appears to be them getting interdicted out of hyperspace and losing the hud

Why is there not star during the innitial bit of the jump?
It certainly does.

and this appears to be them scanning it before it jumps out

Wonder if it is looking for something or someone.

Usually, you'll notice something amiss with edited videos... something is blurrier or brighter than it should be. While the video size was small, it seemed quite seamless.

And of course FD's tweet confirms it. :)

Edit: My, these boards are moving quickly today.

Hahaha. The message he received at the very beginning. You're telling me an NPC bounty hunter showed up to attack him in a first contact Thargoid interdiction. That is probably the greatest thing I've ever seen or heard of. The cheaty AI cheats its way into being apart of first contact. Simply amazing.
