So no nebulae in the game?
I thought that referred to the Magellanic Clouds which are outside our galaxy? Not nebulae
Mumble mumble.... Too much 'noise' in the 'chat' section which causes the questions to get missed
Wanted to know 'How will you improve the experience for people who can't pick up every voice clearly in-game? e.g. station announcements and voice comms?'
I was lucky and one of my questions has been answered. Thanks Michael an Adam
(Will we be able to disable small enemy ships without blowing them up?)
Now i think that I'm doing something wrong, because i can't destroy any subsystem (engines for example) without destroying ship...
There are different kind of nebulae. Those in galaxy you will be able to visit. Magellan clouds are actual smaller galaxies-satellites to our Milky way.
What i remember
* supercruise is bare basics now, lack of interdiction, npcs flying around
* imperial content at very end of the beta (because we are far away from it and obviously FD wants to keep it for release of the game)
* mining still a lot to do
* exploring soon/soonish
* engine upgrades will come in Beta, but sounded that they are still some month away

Bit of feedback from my part:
The questions and answer part was great.
The game footage side of things not so much. For some reason almost no PC players were found and I think that is maybe a sign that devs may want to look into. Maybe it was just bad timing/location but hey.
Also the first shot was fired well past the 30-40 minute mark in the video... Until then there was lots of just flying and docking, flying and docking, flying and docking. I know this is a game of much more than just combat, but I personally think that if FD is offering a stream to the world it has to portray some of the excitement, dynamism and space battles many people out there and here are expecting from the game.
Just my 2 p.

Well, they wanted to play on live server. If they would play on their own, I think it would be way more exciting and interesting. Also missions are generated, so Adams couldn't exactly predict where he could get some good missions
Well thanks for Adam and Michael for doing the streaming. I enjoyed it, but what occurred to me is where were all players?
I couldn't make it in game but we saw three. I think the official streams, if done again on live servers, should be advertised a bit more visibly. A lot of people didn't even know it was going on. That all said, it was a steady improvement on whats been done before and I very much look forward to the next one.

Should be the other way around! Just goes to show that there's still a lot to do with the instancing that they encountered so few players. They also looked kind of sheepish when waiting for the ship to exit supercruise for so long!

Yeah, that was kinda "ohh" moment, but nah, we all have been there!
For some strange reason, I played just way before them, and I saw a lot of players flying around, in supercruise, in station....so I don't know.
It is quite clear they have lot to do on network part, still, I can't complain, it's like day versus night full of volcano smoke for me comparing to alpha 2 or even alpha 3.
I'm glad Brookes said they'll add incentives for players to play in the all-group mode and that there could be an expansion with player owned space-stations and "executive" features. :smilie:
Yeah and I think its just cool to be able to connect with the devs - really liked the way they took questions from twitch.
Internet forums aren't exactly the easiest way to communicate - speech always being superior. And to my mind at least they put a few concerns I've had to rest.
Thanks, that was fun!
I jumped in 15 minutes after it started with 600+ people already watching the stream and a chatroll moving frantically.
I waited about 5 minutes to time for posting a question and BAM Michael directly picked out mine

Possibly, but they shouldn't need to advertise just to make players show up. Adam went to Azeban, where we surely should expect a few more players to be since its the starting station. I hope they will look at the way their servers allocate players to an instance.

I just finished watching and must of missed him saying that about the incentives, I dont remember hearing it.

In some ways the timing might have played a part, 6-7pm mid week is perhaps a little early for a lot of people to be playing, especially given the 'mature' player base at the moment. I suspect that if it had been an hour later with some advance warning in the previous week's newsletter there might have been more people in game.
Then again a lot of the people that were aware of the stream might have been watching the stream and rather than playing.
