Oooh nice.

Still want the fluffy dice though....Brilliant update, best to date.

I may have just wet myself a little bit. New trousers STAT!!!

Thanks Michael.

 

[Cosmos]

Bravo.! Phenomenal!

Love the new style of the dev diary.

 

[Slawkenbergius]

Ooh... Looking forward to this.

 

[Darren Grey]

Waaah, why does this happen when I'm stuck at work! Will have to leg it home this evening

 

[izzy]

Thanks Michael
I'll watch it this evening

 

[Cosmos]

You guys keep doing this to me.. Just when I think I can't get any more excited - you take it to the next level.

Great work Chris!

Apologies if this has been covered somewhere else but watching the guy playing and the talk about immersion a question sprung to mind whether the head movement works in conjuction with the flying controls or whether there is a seperate function to move the pilots head ie. can the pilot look to the right outside his ship whilst flying the ship to the left?

Also forgot to say that this looks frikkin exciting!!

Excellent!! thanks alot for the speedy reply

 

[Philip Coutts]

Holy crap, I am near speechless. This game is beautiful, this is the best dev diary yet. Brilliant to see some more in-game stuff and it really does just look excellent. Can't wait for Alpha now.

 

[Sectoid]

Oh my goodness. I've not said much on these forums, but watching daily happenings....Then this latest video comes along and I cannot wait for alpha testing now.

 

[Jenner]

Fantastic stuff! I really dig the attention to detail in the cockpit. It's great that the HUD will be so responsive to events (like damage) and that a great deal of thought has been put into both its form and function.

Also really looking forward to when the pilots are in and we can see our own hands manipulate the controls!

 

[Zobby]

Look's freaking goodlike .........WOW.

 

[Kerrash]

OH MY BRABEN!
I cannot wait another day, I am driving to Cambridge NOW!

 

[Slawkenbergius]

The pilot moving around the ship in zero G made it feel like space! Yay. Hope that effect makes it in. It will brilliant to have a different feel to moving around the ship spaceside as opposed to planetside.

 

[Out2lunch]

OMG OMG OMG -

Thats all i could hear from some of the guys in the office when they watched the video over my shoulder, they all wanted to know where/when they can get it, and cant wait to try my alpha access...

I knew you had a hit with this game but from the reactions of people who dont play games here in my office it looks like you will have a few more sales.

Now off to the xmas party... HiC!

 

[Alien]

I want zero G fluffy dice ... it won't be X:Rebirth without zero G fluffy dice
(Think about it ...)
Great video guys ... thank you ... MOAR IN-GAME STUFFZ PLEASE

 

[Cosmos]

Was that a track IR I saw on the 2nd monitor?

btw.. the fluffy dice should have black dots
