Suggestion: Coming out of Supercruise

[Cythrawl]

I have a suggestion.

When coming out of Supercruise to a Station, why cant the station zoom in at high speed a'la the Sun when you come out of Hyperspace?

I think this would look better than the screen flashing white and the Station just appearing out of nowhere...

Any thoughts?

I think it's because it's beta. Right now it looks pretty jarring as you fly past the station, then inexplicably you get teleported back right in front of the station.

I have often thought that it does look a bit odd that you can see the planets and moons moving in supercruise, and you're less that 1,000km away from the station, press "j" and it suddenly appears right in front of you.

I think we need a better coming out of supercruise visual effect to hide the sudden pop-up of the station, like the coming out of hyperspace effect in Star Wars, or at least something to make it look like it's zoomed in from the distance.

I think going into, and coming out of supercruise should be SEAMLESS.

Elite 2/3 is simply in another league to what we currently have in ED. One feels real, the other like a game.

One thing I liked in the old premium beta was the fact that when you would drop out of SC at too high speed, your ship would be spinning out of control for some time. I wish they brought this back. No idea why it was removed.

yeh coming out of super cruise is ugly at the moment, I am assuming (hoping) it'll be a bit more refined in later releases.

Well phrased.

 

[Jack Booted Thug]

I bet it will be seamless by the time Frontier finishes with it before the final release of the game.

Mark my words.

Oh yes, very cool.

There is quite a delay coming out of supercruise which could indicate they are working on it and hopefully do exactly that.
