there's a link from the game homepage to their live stream. they're demoing a lot today, we should be in for a few surprises. what we know is we get new game modes for the alpha dogfighting module (racing for sure, no clue what the other mode will be) and they'll be showing multicrew ships, fps, planetside, and other stuff too. should be pretty cool.
this game is apparently really starting to come together. they have pretty much refined thir programing and artwork pipelines so content will start pouring out over this next year.
can't wait to see what cool shit they are doing for GC, and tgen they'll also be at PAX australia next month (?) to demo cap ship battles, boarding party sim modes and eventually the persistent universe.

1. Multi-crew ship trailer. (with explosive decompression) Multicrew ships will be available probably by christmas-ish. sorry about the quality, but just know that there's one player flying each ship and the rest of the people are on weapons so this is indicative of what multiplayer on a ship with a crew will play like.

4. Pretty cool "in fiction" showcase of some of the Hangars you'll be able to use as made by the "companies" that "made them." These will be made available in 2 weeks.

that's probably about all. not too shabby for not even having a proper alpha release. They are still "prealpha" as far as what they consider their version to be internally. Alpha 1.0 isn't far away though. Once it's in beta you'll be able to fly out of your hangar, leave orbit, jump to far away stars, attack merchants and steal their cargo, land on foreign planets, walk around the city, sell your stolen goods, leave the planet, fly to an asteroid belt, land in your hidden asteroid hangar, switch out your ship for a multicrew ship, pick up your buddies, fly off to go battle Militia with your pirate organization mates, run the police out of your sector, continue piracy operations including killing players, kidnapping players, ransoming, stealing and influencing the dynamic economy to benefit our Org. Then we can kick back in someone's constellation Phoenix which has a movie theater and we can watch gun videos and "go pro" camera footage of boarding actions and the like. Or movies maybe even, who know. maybe in fiction TV broadcasts made by the devs? They already do that, so i wouldn't be surprised if they had in universe in fiction TV. Think Cowboy Bebop and their Bounty Hunting TV show they'd watch to learn about big bounties.
eh? cool, huh? eh? eh?
