That's some major headbobbing going on. Seriously, it looks like they don't have a damage model for the FPS component. They can be affected by physics, but the only damage we've seen only is inflicted on ships and not people. Young Freud fucked around with this message at 10:56 on Feb 2, 2016 |

For a laser to cause that sort of impact, each shot would be roughly equivalent to a few dozen kilowatt hours or burning a few dozen litres of crude oil. They have some really good battery tech/thermal resistant armour in the future.

Been lurking in these threads since late September, so after seeing the free flight week I decided to try it out to see just how bad it could possibly be. At first everything seemed... functional. Sure, I moved like I was several hundred pounds overweight and it seemed like my head was attached to my left shoulder, but I was able to move and interact with my environment, two essential parts of the gaming experience. After several minutes of wandering I discovered the ship-summoning terminals and excitedly chose the first ship listed, and was told that there weren't any available spaces, nor was I allowed to summon the remaining two ships. Five minutes later I summoned the RSI Aurora, and upon finding it on the landing pad, realized it was the ugliest loving ship I had ever seen. Regardless, I attempted to board and was kicked from the server, and then my computer hard-locked. Second attempt: I summoned some sort of fighter. I climbed inside like an arthritic grandmother boarding a roller-coaster and batted soundlessly at the mess of buttons and toggles, nothing inside the cockpit animating in any way. The screen lit up, and I was kicked due to an authentication error. Third attempt: I ran as quickly as I could, summoned the Aurora again, and made it inside after waiting for my turn at the airlock. Once on board I noticed a small passage behind the cockpit and opened it. It turned out to be a tiny cot, which my character proceeded to loudly sleep upon. No combination of buttons would end the animation. Over the snoring, I could hear gunfire and explosions. Somewhere, someone was actually gaining some measurable amount of entertainment. Above me, the reflection in the ceiling split in two and began to vibrate. I mashed every button on my keyboard, inadvertently bringing up my mobiglass, which caused the game to crash. Fourth attempt: I played Elite instead. Sure, it may not have the sheer fidelity, realism, and immersion, but at least I can get off the damned space station in less than an hour.

Yes E:D can be miles wide and only an inch deep, but stuff like this is simply amazing. Pretty much. That last part really needs emphasising: it can be an inch deep. If you play it the way Elite II was played, then all you get is an updated Elite II. If you choose to engage in the emerging storylines, or if you just decide to go out and explore, it's hell of a lot more than that. To be honest, this is the only way that actual exploration can ever work in a multiplayer universe: by having meta-game puzzles that the players have to pick apart and pursue, and which get updated on a regular basis by the devs. For a singleplayer experience, you can get (very) far with a procedural system, but even that will eventually be picked apart by the players unless it's constantly updated. It will certainly still provide a different exploration path every time you restart it, but the general story beats and available paths will be on GameFAQs after a month or three.

To be fair the target was dancing, as with quantum travel and a ship being destroyed, this player character has been temporarily swapped out for a model which they obviously haven't made damageable.
