I agree the music is fantastic! Mr Zakharov does a great job, I loved the music in the opening video sequence of X².

Did anyone notice how fast the ship flew away from the first station? It looked like a Pegasus at SETA 10X!

Very nice station the paranid? one, but nothing we aint seen before. And where is the fighters engine glow/trail? I do like the music alot as well.

Could have been a good opertunity to show us a bit more action in X3 though like fighter battle or a chase scene.

Still we got a nice good long view of 2 stations and a ship. But as I said i hate scripted movies. Give me ingame action anyday

This tune was created by Alexei Zakharov who already did some of the tunes for X2.
You might have seen him here already - he's a member of our community
I hope he's a member of the staff now the music he produces is really suited to X2/X3

Alexei first rate music, the quality that truly complements the graphics, nice one, great work

Well it is not without a reason that he's doing music for X³ now

The first station screams Argon make, the second station just streight out says "Split", espeically sense it has some parts that look like some parts in X2 on it. I was quite saddened that I only saw one ship and it had no engine trails... I think they should've waited till they had more to show.

The bad:
Shiny shiny shiny ships. Touch of the Fish-eye lense still, too

The good:
Great station design, fantastic detail on the planet surfaces, funky tunes!

Exelent video. Pity my notebook will not be able to run it. Hope the Xbox version is just as good. The silver station at the start seemss to have external docking. For M6s maybe?

Skeeter · Post by **Skeeter** » Sun, 26. Jun 05, 21:37

I know the first station was argon as it clearly screams human design as we like industry style. The second I thought was split as they like red stations but i think paranid also like red stations, lol its been awhile since i last played. I tool a chance saying its paranid incase it was. More likely split but the paranid have always not been a part of the x games usually except for docking computer i think for me. Hence why i chosen to say paranid sorta.

Twas rather good. Some non-net capable friends might wanna have a looksee at that

Agree with Galaxy613, that 2nd station gotta be Split.

the video is very good very good detail on the ship's and station's

But a question for the guy that made the video what kind of gfx card do you? have and was the game running at max ?

Red Spot · Post by **Red Spot** » Sun, 26. Jun 05, 22:16

....

very nice work .. this actually gave me the idea I was looking at some kinda 'huge' factory ..
hope to get the same 'feeling' of being in space as I did here ..
(not the X2-kinda "hop from fab to fab" idea)

Oh Your God!

Eyes getting cavitys...too much eyecandy...must brush eyes!

I have a slight feeling my x300 GFX card may be slightly underpowered for this work of art...

I like the music, what I heard of it(got a bit distracted by all the eye candy)

bye

anima36 · Post by **anima36** » Sun, 26. Jun 05, 22:37

i love the size of the stations but i wouldn't have liked to see more ships and mabye some combat. Anyway shouuldn't moan. It was a great video.

Thanks EGOSOFT.

Well as Apoc says there will be no work done between now and release ,so any remark about graphics is redundant

I thought I could tell a little varation in flight physics but as was mentioned this could be scripted.

The main thing I wanted to say about the piece is that I am totally hyped that Alexei Zakharov is doing the music score.

I have said it before,the music in X2 and the extra piece he released later(lamenting over you)? are great pieces IMHO

Cheers/Thrangar

The graphics are very nice: especially the stations and planets look beautiful.
The soundtrack is magnificent!

X3:Reunion is looking (and sounding!) better and better.
