As someone will start a thread sooner or later, I left a link to youtube video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eq69wcCk_qU

And my opinions/thoughts:


The video in PAX west looks awesome, regardless they cut just before space battle.


In general there's not much new from gamescom, and seems to be the same demo. The interviewers seems more correct, but still... well more worried about making bad jokes.


Very interesting the info in amplified view (didn't remember exact name, the thing when you press space), specially about trade routes and systems.


About minute 05:30, they're exploring a new system, and the fleet sends some probes to the planets, revealing resources and anomalies. I suspect this is part of what Amplitude explained in GDD3 about curiosity system. Looks good, it adds a layer of entertainment. Have some questions about it (hope will see soon in EA...):

- Are this probes a limited number in each fleet?

- Have a cost?

- The things that they reveal are dependent on your tech?


Also lots of info in systems and senate that looks very useful.


And nothing more new from gamescom.


Your thoughts??

Probes are limited in number (depending on exploration modules present on the ship), and replenish over time. They have no cost besides the module's. Certain curiosities require a bigger exploration potential, thus more probes/ships with probes (if I'm not mistaken).

So we can design our very own U.S.S. Enterprise focused on exploration role? That's neat

If someone is going to mod it, please upload to Steam, I need that ship in my fleet.
