First contact today!

[Colossus1921]

Let's not kid ourselves... the chances of first contact being made on Xbox were non existent... so if it is real, it would more than likely be on PC.

If I'm not mistaken, the first UA was found on the Xbone, so it's possible.

Awesome videos.
Anyone tried throwing Mugs at them?

No. I was thinking of using Bongo as he is already on his way

Disagree. Maybe the files for the alien aren't on PC yet so data miners can't find them. Put them on the Xbox though.
. Much harder to find the files, at least for a legit user.

I've been here for ten minutes

 

[xaisis]

O_O help!

 

[FunkyCold84]

That was my first thought.

My second thought was "at least they weren't immediately hostile."

Wonder how long that will last? They may get hostille the 1st time a cmdr shoots one.

True thought process, but I was just basing on precednce. It does look scripted though. The clip OP looks to be a cinematic guru. Crazy times we live in.

Thanks.

Looks real. At least the 2nd video. Or someone really put a lot of effort into it.

 

[fennster]

"Hyperspace conduit unstable warning" is an audio option in the PC files too.

 

[Moonax IRL]

Try this one. Full HUD and Unknown Ship data scan....

Looks like the real thing, if it isn`t they should be working for FD

 

[W4LD0]

Whether legit or fake, this video gives me the willies. Given how much detail was put into the visual affects surrounding the Thargoid ship and the space around it though, I'll bet this is real.

Get your tinfoil hats ready y'all, the Thargoids are here! [alien] :O

 

[Kemo]

okay, i shall be sleeping with the duvet tucked up tight under my chin tonight..

and maybe with the landing light on.

 

[Weps]

Figures.

The most epic moment in the history of Elite and there has to be an Anaconda there shooting pink lasers and making a mockery of the entire mood.

 

[RhymeRhyme]

And the fact that the admins are really quick in closing other threads seems to be like hmmmmmmmmmmm... wait a minute. The vid with the ship looks really authentic. Photoshopping it would take too much effort.

 

[Moonax IRL]

I`d say FD have being reading the forums and decided to throw us a bone.

At least it wasn't ganked by SDC...

 

[Bond00789lol]

Im convinced. I can't argue with that hyperspace interdiction. It looked way too cool to even want to.

They are here!

 

[Moonax IRL]

Just being tweeted by FD, so I`d say its legit.
