Oh, that's right, I knew I recognized it...it was in an NFL commercial once. Excellent choice! :)
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

I'm going to be a nitpicker here because I can  :P

No starfield.pof!
Why are all those cruisers&faustus lined up perfectly? It just screams "Placed on a grid!" to me.
I noticed some odd white texture flashing when one of those cruisers died.
It seems rather odd to have the Thor flying around in a time frame where you are suppose to fly pre-great war fighters. Yes I know its just a model and not an established canon craft. But in general, the Thor is often used to be.. well... awesome and modern. So its hard to see it any other way.
If you are going to record awesome footage... don't fly close to a hull and collide with it just before the fade out  :p
Urutorahappī!!

[02:42] <@Axem> spoon somethings wrong
[02:42] <@Axem> critically wrong
[02:42] <@Axem> im happy with these missions now
[02:44] <@Axem> well
[02:44] <@Axem> with 2 of them

It looks like you are using a good many of the OTT models...

And yeah, from the visuals I get the impression the story isn't too coherent... Of course, as I don't know where to get more backstory on your project, That's not too fair an assumption, either.

The music was nice, but the FREDding and story didn't seem up to snuff. It's a small-team project, but maybe you guys should focus on putting together a few quality missions for a demo and playtesting the heck out of them? Don't get bogged down in making an absurdly extensive modpack.

I'm very sorry, but this trailer didn't make me enthusiastic about this project at all. While your assets are very nice (those planets are drop-dead gorgeous), just the fact that you have some seemingly stupid capship drivers turned me off.

Also, (apparent) lack of starfield.pof makes me sad.

Fortunately, they're easy-to-fix problems. Nothing a bit of effort can't handle.

EDIT : About the Shivan part, will it remain consistent with canon, or are you creating a whole parallel continuity ?

We will be consistent with canon. I am not gonna spoil the method just yet.
As for the capship battles, well... you'll see what we have on mind  ;7

Not to worry. As you all probably know, that is easy enough to fix, and will be included.

So what are the Factions in the Civil War and does the player get to choose a faction or is it chosen for them?

The factions are briefly listed at our forums. The player will play as the STA.

Re: Syrk is Hiring! [Anniversary Trailer!]
At the moment we are in need of a part time texture person. It wouldn't be a full time job, we just have a model that needs texturing. If anyone is willing to give it a shot, please let me know.

Two. Don't forget the abandoned mining station.

This issue (texturing) has been resolved.

FREDders are still needed badly.

Re: Syrk is Hiring! [Anniversary Trailer!]
I am hoping you have very very very very very very very good explanation as to why Shivans are in the Unification War, and why everyone forgot about them by the time FS1 rolls around.

I am hoping that MISLE is some kind of acronym and now how you spell 'missile'.

Re: Syrk is Hiring! [Anniversary Trailer!]
An update for everyone. Syrk progress has really slowed down as of lately. With school and RL, and a major lack of FREDers and bugtesters, things are moving... very slowly. Anyhow, here is a list of what is needed, since I feel lazy to update the one on the first page.

Green = Needed and spots are open.
Yellow = Not as badly required, and spots are open.
Red = Not needed (obviously :D)

-FREDers Needed very badly. If anything is going to kill this project, it will be the lack of FREDers.

-Texturers We have a couple ships that require to be textured. I believe the file formats are in .3ds and can be exported to Maya if necessary (not sure on that though.)

-Bugtesters Anyone that wants to have some fun with constructive criticism and bugtesting the missions, let us know.

-Modders/tablers It is unlikely that modders or tablers will be needed. We will inform you if there are any openings.

-Planet Designer/Background Designer Have a great one at the moment. Thus, it's not currently needed.

If your interested in helping in any way to make this go faster, then either PM myself or Lucika, or go ahead and comment here. :)
