I can't wait until we can get our hands in it, and break it in so many different ways Egosoft never thought of. :)

And Terre has new material to win Screenshot of the week ... every week. :P

Well obviously he's not Bruce Springsteen in disguise, but he's the boss as far as Egosoft is concerned. :roll:

Lies, all lies, plans to deceive us, it's an anagram, Bernd = Bruce and Springsteen almost = Lehahn, it's obvious now.
You can shut me up! We know the truth now!

In other news, do you have plans to change the Shop Classification System, ex. remove some classes, add new, swap the order, re-do the whole thing, etc. ?

I wonder if the transcript of the presentation will be available soon.

XR looks nice enough in motion too. Also love the distinctive homeworld feel to it (large dense nebulas which I hope won't look as stupid as in x3)

Too true. I'm fairly sure at some point there will be some details that disappoint me but if I've interpreted what I've seen so far correctly I'll be very happy. It's difficult for me to put into words; so far everything looks "right."

One thing that did pop into my mind was that this is what X3 should have been. It wouldn't surprise me at all if the game design had been around for a very long time and simply wasn't possible to make due to hardware or time restrictions.

When I moved to X3 after X2 I was disappointed by a number of things - a lot of things didn't make sense to me (I've said before that X3 was a sidestep, not a step forward.) After reading a few of the comments by certain devs over the last year or so, I'm certain that Rebirth is the game that ES has been wanting to make but couldn't.

I expect that cut-scenes are going to be quite important in Rebirth (cut-scenes from the perspective of the MD.) I'm guessing they'll be used to hide/cover up things while the engine is busy so the experience appears seamless.

He says something like 'bring more of the game to the surface of the space stations'. I like that: in smaller ships I like to dogfight around space stations, so you can hide behind them for cover etc... I hate it in bigger ships, the turrets cause a lot of rep-loss....

Thanks for the vid!

Still a tad disappointed at the lack of official update. Or even official response as to whether the teaser is (more or less) all that is to be announced or if there is significant levels of info being released :(
