I think I know where Salvation is...?

That origin point is not moving because is the system portal between their galaxy and ours. It is clearly Raxxla
I wouldn't necessarily dismiss reusing assets as "cutting corners" in this case. They just spent a ton of effort to build a bridge asset for carriers after all, I'd imagine you'd get much nicer results filming there than in something hastily knocked together.
Leaving the ship name as "Nemesis" instead of "Bright Sentinel" is either extremely sloppy, or a big ol' clue. It's next to zero effort for them to rename a carrier for the purposes of filming, presuming they took the footage in-game as opposed to a dev environment under their full control. I don't buy for a second "oops the dev's carrier is named Nemesis and we can't change it" as an explanation.
Like Ian I don't put too much weight on the details of the starfield, especially as it does seem to have been flipped and otherwise subjected to some nonlinear editing. The exception that I'm quite interested in - at the end the camera zooms and pans to an unremarkable bit of space before the new Thargoid sound effect plays. That feels like a clue, or at least a teaser - even if it's just reinforcing the message of "something new is coming" it rather suggests that the whatever is coming from over thataway. As teasers (i.e. not meant to be "solved" right away) go, pointing in a direction that doesn't reference any specific system works well enough.
Latest Galnet seems to have cleared up the "Nemesis" oversight in the video.
Or just brought out the conspiracy theorist in us all by bungling the two.
I refuse to believe this was Salvation. That he was stupid enough to put himself on board the bright sentinel when he quite clearly possessed the technology to create a stand-in. His body never moved in the transmission before the weapon fired, we never saw his face. This is a coverup alright, but not for FDev's shoddy reuse of assets to cobble together a cinematic, but a coverup of Salvation's death.
He's not dead. The Constructs are coming. War is upon us.
Step. Away. From. The tinfoil...
Pretty sure he is not.He's dead. What we saw was just the dramatic reenactment.
=> The report is second hand account by freelancers employed by Azimut Biotech, which have all interest in extinguishing the fire by pretending the culprit is dead.
=> The Nemesis label we saw on the cutscene wasn't FDev mistake, but Azimut Biotech's. They didn't expect such an outcome, and didn't blur or otherwise alter the ship name.Salvation will be back.
I personally hope he is dead. He has frakked enough up for one lifetime.
He's dead. What we saw was just the dramatic reenactment.
I know he's not dead because I saw him down the bar last night drinking Lavian Brandy with Elvis
So the "Nemesis Failsafe" on the latest GalNet update sure has my hairs up that my initial suspicions were correct on this. He wasn't on the ship that was destroyed, but his body was. Left there to be found among the wreckage to make people think he was dead while he broadcasted from another location.
I wonder if he multiplied himself into several cyber personalities. Remember the thargoid roar as being interpreted as "we see them"...
