I love the look of the surface scanner on the SRV .

It would also look great on an explorer vessel when added with a detailed surface scanner.

Yeah cant wait to see the new scanner in action. I am so excited that we are getting deeper exploration gameplay. I also agree it would be nice to add more usable features and interaction via the various discovery and surface scanners. Who knows what they have planned for that screen between the legs? Maybe we'll see something done with it in horizons?

My opinion on this, surely it would be nice but before FD puts any affords and manpower in visible tracks, we should have persistent visible damage on all ship models. The ship is our personality (o.k. we will get faces SOON).
It will give us much more "I was there, did get some hits but you should see how the other ship looks like now...." feeling if we can see the bullet hits and laser scratches after a fight on our ship before repairing it.

I am dreaming having different marks on the hull that can be directly connected to the weapon that did hit me... like: oh this was the railgun hit from the ASP in the combat zone, and here this must be a plasma hit....

Yeah, persistent damage and scarring would be awesome.

I highly doubt that from what I have seen, SRV's are lowered from a bay.

Yeah, I mean, come on - down the ramp is so Thunderbirds. ;)





....and clearly I'm talking Suoermarionation era here.

SRVs are definitely being lowerd from the bay and don't drive down a ramp. We saw footage of an SRV getting lowered to the ground from a bay like that in the Q&A Livestream with David Braben a couple of weeks ago.

I'm constantly amazed and awwed by the size and scale of this game. Especially with finally seeing things from the ground level. It never dawned one me that we'd be able to visit starports on the planets. I always figured any ground contact would be just have us land out ship and drive around with the SRV and coming across enemy bases. That we can land in starports (assuming is the case and if I'm wrong I apologize) and potentially have things we could drive up to and maybe interact or just view in some what safety is going to be amazing.

I was shocked when a fellow played showed me ED on his OR DK2...... a Sidewinder is BIG, really BIG, a station is gigantic with VR, how will horizons look with VR? Hard to imagine...

Stop!! I'm surprised. Does that awaits us? A piece of each creation made for you? I think that is the same or very similar. The ideas are over?
Please check this. Horizon vs Infestation

I need a new peek! How will I survive this week without it? Sir, would you kindly stop playing/testing Horizons for 10 minutes and start uploading?! ;-)
