Shea posted theses vid in the shout box, Thought I would repost them here.    Looks like they might be starting to gear up for the release of the game.

Thank you sire

[sscadmin]

I have to admit that the cockpit view looks nice. I really do want to complete my first X game Pinback and maybe, just maybe this new one will be the one

[Pinback]

Same here I have had a go at all of them but never got anywhere with them.

Here is another video guys,Thanks PINBACK for posting the other video,s here,didnt get round to it another

[Pinback]

Nice to see some more about the games. Can't see any subtitles on the top vid, guy on the bottom vid seems very reluctant to say anything about the spec required to run the game.

Try turning caption on on youtube,it works for me

Here is another vid,which shows some gameplay and cockpit view

[Pinback]

Tutti frutti background, don't like having just one half of the cockpit showing although no doubt their will be multi monitor or VR support. 

[sscadmin]

Maybe that is for your co-pilot? I think they have been doing a nice job on the cockpit views and hope they continue to improve them and make them useful.

[FStyle]

I can't be the only person who prefers a minimalistic HUD over a fancy cockpit view? All that stuff obscures the view of stuff that's actually important (I hate flying big ships in X3 for that reason).

[Pinback]

Privateer was the worst for that.

[sscadmin]

I like the option for both FStyle, on occasion I like the fancy cockpit view for when I am cruising around doing whatever. But when it comes to HUD I like minimal distractions for combat so the less intrusive the better.

Short vid of one the station.  And this one, it's in German and apparently you can turn on subtitles on Youtube but they did not work for me.

Short vid of one the station.  showcasing a space station and the music was like a protaganist dying after a final battle or something.

Nice my interest in X rebirth has just gone up especially the last few minutes where get to see some walking about the station.

Looks good apart from the general lack of angular momentum which results in annoyingly clunky movement when turning. The following video shows how it should be done properly - not just angular momentum, but the whole lot regarding physics, mass or simply put, the way your ships responds. You can almost it feel dance around you and that allows you to dance (if you know what I mean), which is incredibly fun and challenging in IW2 as well as a bunch of other games with good implementation of (semi-) Newtionian physics and finely tuned mass values.  Back on topic, they released another video. This one actually sort of made me ... let's cut to the chase, MIND = BLOWN.  And then there's this trailer. Egosoft need to become more picky about the voice actors they hire asap.

 Back on topic, they released another video. This one actually sort of made me ... let's cut to the chase, MIND = BLOWN.  Agree never was a fan of the old X games but this just the sort of stuff I have been looking for in a game for years, I just hope they have not buggered it by leaving that annoying crawl around the cube to see whats their as in the other games. One thing the X games have always done well is size and scale and it's some thing Frontier should be taking notice off.

Me is also not a fan of the old X games - imo they managed to get the negatives of both space and management together... even gazillionere was better.Would love to see a space game that "simulates" a detailed living world/space that doesnt revolve only around the player (i guess iam spoiled by spacerangers2) i also like those cockpits - maybe there is some customizing garage where you can pimp your flight errr.. get a custom cockpit. Hope they will go retail with a dvd in a box in europe.
