Cool, one of my favourite game trailers of all time, I just keep coming back to it once in a while.
I really like the way the combat scene plays out... the fighter shooting at a target behind it made me go "whoa" and "WTF" at the same time though... that is some high-tech off-boresight lock-on?
And the use of beams, pulsed beams, those energy bombs and missiles/torpedoes too... Really half-FS (beam) and half-(whatever sci-fi universe uses missiles and torps as heavy weapons as opposed to beams) in my opinion.
(I quietly yearn for a time when FSO can have weapons like that XD)Then there's the fighters shooting each other down with machinegun pulse lasers... I like!!! Compare that to the game where it's all just flickering beams... it felt very "meh"...
The only thing I couldn't get used to in both the first game and the trailer is the music with that voice... like something out of a horror film, (as in truly scary and not those cheesy flicks) but it really captures the mood of space I guess...
