X-move your hipsssss for profitsssss

Post by BurnIt! »

This weeks feature picture of X Rebirth shows a unique new way to negotiate prices. With "Move your hipsss for profitsss", you can use the Kinect for Windows controller to "dance down" the prices for any deal.

Update April, 2nd: As most of you have found out already, this was of course our contribution to April Fools' Day ;-)

This may be an April Fools joke, but there is a lot we can learn from this image.
Firstly, the Teladi are as ugly as always
Second, how the internal structure of ships and stations will probably look (My guess is this might be part of the Albion Skunk)
Third, Teladi are ugly
Fourth, Argnu really do look like cows
Fifth, character models are well proportioned and realistic, not that supermodel shit or Miranda's Ass from Mass Effect. Though the facial structure and hands could use a little work.
Sixth, Teladi.... UGLY.... KILL THEM ALL....
[EDIT]: Seventh, PINK DESIGNER JUMPSUITS ARE BACK IN FASHION!!!!!

Ha, of course they are ugly :D I wonder what other races look like -> and I really hope the face expression of those dancers is there as a joke and is not a part of normal face animation :D :D :D

Personally I never had a problem with Miranda's ass :P
But yeah, fingers are like chop-sticks. And the chins.. my god the chins are nasty.

Meh, I want more Miranda ass!

Because people were asking in the facebook thread about this dance feature: Of course you can also trade without a Kinect controller. You just pay the full price and get no discounts.

The combination of voice recognition technology, raw unapologetic PC horsepower with multible monitors like a real space ship would have, kinect technology and minecraft's multiplayer solution would revolutionize the space sim and all pc games would look primitive in it's shadow. muhahaha....

The consoles would once again be put into their proper place... A pocket calculator. An antique in a musem. A paper weight. The recycle bin. Perhaps useful as a door stop.

Imagine a world where you never touch a keyboard or mouse. NEVER. Although you might have to if your crew gets killed. Once again more immersive. Like the interface of the Enterprise in the latest StarWars movie. And simply point or speak commands like a true ships captain standing on the bridge... or start a dance battle to negotiate price. I quite like it. It's new. Innovate and invent! It's what successful companies do.

I'm all about unapologetic PC horsepower and dimming the lights when my machine comes on.
The skunk really is a bare bones model. It doesn't even have a GPS to highlight the way. Or targeting software MK 2 to allow target selection and painting from the sector map. It lacks a Trading System Extention to show prices in the sector you are in. The lack of satellites in rebirth is also annoying to the trader/pirate looking for a mark.

Can we let the autopilot do the dancing?

Or will it still just crash into the nearest asteroid :) .

I don't think we have one. There's a copilot. Maybe she could dance.
