True, they are indeed different things but TrackIR will just be that bit easier for people to lay out dosh for, that's all. I have TrackIR and yes, once the Oculus goes full product release I'll be buying one of those too. Tis why I said, "support both" my friend. :D

They are both great bits of kit and deserve to be supported if possible. I didn't mean it to sound like I was slamming down on the Oculus. We are at a time when we need VR and more immersion, the Oculus is the best thing out there currently so I'll be supporting it as well.

I think as soon as you have head look, you can have API hooks and implement drivers for OR and TrackIR quite easily.

It might seem like nitpicking but I do feel that we Brits can so often under promote ourselves, yet we have a history of making really cool stuff. The Americans on the other hand are expert at advertising.

Reckon the video speaks for itself but you do hit a point.

No, the Americans aren't expert at Advertising, they just shout louder than everyone else.... Remember that British Advertising is the best in the world... So many award winners out there it's unfathomable... :cool:

I agree, this game is so under-promoted and underestimated and yet they delivered above expected with this trailer...not fair, but that's why they have double respect and appreciation from me.
Keep up the good work team, you're on the right track!

Low key with a BFG. Braden did the same with the original Elite.

The game will be a winner, and not only because it will be better than most expectations.

I have the next 5 years covered now... E: D, SC, X:rebirth, SotA, FFXIV

Darn where will I find the time? :S

I think people who talk about vacuum and rising smoke need to stop beeing nerds. Games supposed to be COOL, not only 100% scientifically accurate. If you can't overlook those things I believe that gaming age for you is over - you now pay more attention to game's physics instead of how fun it is ;). When game is FUN people usually dont worry about which direction smoke rises... FIGURATIVELY speaking.. they just play it and HAVE FUN!

Agreed.. Yet if they add an effect of fire in an oxygen weightless environment I'd be stoked.

They must be busting with ideas at Frontier, it must be difficult to make decisions on what to include and what not to.

I just noticed something else.. the guns on the ship change colour and cool down again with use.. talk about attention to detail.

between 1.50 - 1.54

Great work, Elite has never looked better - I really love the effects, and if you're going for a "Battlestar Galactica" type approach, a bit real / gritty then I think you're succeeding and it really suits the game.

It looks better than I thought it would - even though I was pretty sure it would look good anyway :)

This is weirdly true... Advertising is a major UK export, and our adverts are relatively watchable compared to most overseas ads. That's not something to be proud of mind, and it only applies to ad agencies, rather than companies without big marketing budgets.

My how things have changed since when I was young. Games... Cool? Maybe I was born too soon.

YES!
Thx much for the video.

Releasing videos and some art work every couple of weeks will keep new players backing the game.

It's all about PR.

It's not so weird given the relative sophistication of the British viewing public. TV commercials have to be innovative because the general population reads TV very well. And it kind of is something to be proud of - just look at a Ridley Scott creation from years ago and you'll see how advertising is a pioneering form.

been using trackIR lately with other games in a first person perspective that are not natively supported. With a little bit of fiddling, I have got games like Skyrim and Mirror's Edge to work very well with it.

TrackIR is truly a great piece of kit, and would love it to be supported here, but of course, lets focus on getting the game out first!
