Witchspace new animation!

Ive seen the jump animation so many times now that it appears in my dreams.
Something changed?

Having checked, yes it's changed a wee bit.

What are "like" stars?
Also, played last night (or night before?) and didn't see anything.. maybe I'm like Vasco.. just tune it out now. xD

For you marked with red circle.

Has there always been a white star field going the opposite direction than the rest near the end of the tunnel animation?
 
Swear they have always been there. I remember naively thinking "Oh cool it actually takes into account the systems you pass!" before realising its just a fancy load screen :).

Its specifically not the systems you pass in the lore. Witchspace is weird, you are not physically moving from A to C passing B.

And yes, it is a loading screen in-game. :p
 
More like moving A to B and passing 1, 2, 3, but whatever... :p

I hadn't thought they changed since the thargoid hyperdictions were introduced. Or did they add the target star after that?

The Central star you circled was added 2 major point updates ago I think? (2.2? or was it 2.3) It shows the star you're jumping to as you get closer.
 
Well, I do notice a lot more bright "stars" floating about in witchspace. Sometimes a single one, sometimes pairs or three of them twirling around. They kinda remind me of the "comets" ships in supercruise make. Maybe it is them Thargoids mobilizing.
 
The Red Light and White Light are old friends, from the hyperspace sequence way back before 2.0. They've reappeared with the latest patch, and they've brought some friends. There are now swarms of Reds and Whites.

Now this is why they are annoyed at us.
Zipping through thier hyperspace motorway's the wrong way.
