NEWS: X³:TC "Build" Video - (Plus all available release info)
With the scheduled release date of X3: Terran Conflict getting closer, Egosoft and the European publisher Deep Silver have today released a promotional video covering one of the four facets of the game - BUILD.
The video shows some new stations and ships as well as a brief look at the new, improved interface and menu system. In the voice-over it also mentions more about some of the other upcoming content such as new ship classes.
You can currently view and download the video at the Deep Silver website, but of course Egosoft is already preparing downloads from their own servers as well, from where you will be able to choose your preferred video format and size.
As soon as they are up, we will update this news.
Enjoy the show!
UPDATE 08/01/2008: As promised the video is now available for download from the Egosoft servers. There are low and high quality versions available, both encoded using "xvid(AVI)"-format.

Widescreen trailer implies widescreen game. Should fit my 23" Cinema Display just perfect. Cool!
Also seems as though the pirates have gotten their hands on at least one Argon Centaur, from the looks of it. Lots of other new, drool ships, too.
However, one little quibble. I saw a lot ships flying around shooting other ships and stations. But I didn't see any building going on. No sector maps, no station interfaces. A very brief glimpse of a ship's command console. I thought this was the 'Build' trailer.

Have a great idea for the current or a future game? You can post it in the [L3+] Ideas forum.

At 2:13, did anyone else notice the complex that looks kinda like from X2: The Return?

But we saw the familiar complex connection tubes at one point. And the voice spoke about "self-sustaining" complexes. A web of inferior profitsss still with uss?

That "wings" menu gives me a LOT of hope. I was just about to throw something very similar to the devnet. Hooray for Egosoft!
Otherwise... lots of new and sexy looking ships as usual. Lots of very different looking stations, too. I wonder what they're all about.
I'm gonna have to take a closer look at this one later (when I'm not actually supposed to be busy unpacking boxes... )

Nah. The hint of a German accent and the stresses on some words make it unlikely that it's synthesized, in my opinion. Unless you mean it's a real voice pretending to be synthesized, in which case it's possible.RustyBayonet wrote:Is it me or is the voice over for that trailer synthesised speech? - heh that would be cool if thats the new Betty.
But I'll miss Betty if it's true...
Holy smokes! We're at least getting double the external docking clamps on Complex Hubs.

Launch missiles while under fire?
At around about 1:26 - 1:28 into the trailer a ship appears to launch missiles while taking fire. If this works for the player ship it will be wonderful. (I love X3 at the moment, but the way missiles can be shot down at launch is not my favourite feature.)
