Its of course everything we've already seen before but it's put together nicely and the music is a pleasant surprise.

However, is the actual meat of the campaign/story content going to take less or more time to add into the game than the combat system additions we've been having? If its going to take longer then I fear we'll be waiting well into 2014. ??? But, here's to hoping we'll be playing the finished game before XMAS! 8)

Wonderful. I love the little bits of new sound effects that are in there, unless they are post-produced: the thumper, the explosions, etc.

...you can be assured that whatever comes out of the dev-oven will be fantastic and delicious. And it will also include frosting and sprinkles.

Yes, leaves me with a good feeling :)  I'll show it around a bit to see how people react who don't know the game.

Are this  the real new explosion sounds or just for the trailer? I would love them in the game!

The game was completed 8 years ago and we get a free expansion every year.

Arranging holidays in an embrace with the Starsector is priceless.

By the way, Stian, the music is fantastic - love the hint of a leitmotif in there that I can find myself growing to love. What do you use for your orchestration, Eastwest?

Thanks for the comments, guys!

The explosion and gun sound effects that differ from what you're used to are indeed part of the new combat sound overhaul. They might have been post-processed in post production to make them "sit" in the trailer mix, but they do reveal a small glimpse of what the newer sounds are like.

Both Hollywood Strings and Hollywood Brass sample libraries from EW/QL are part of the musical score, but there are a lot of other things in there as well. I get asked a lot about what software I use, and I always try to remember emphasizing that it doesn't really matter what software or samples you use, it's more about learning to use what you have.

Much better! :D Very epic, especially some of the explosion sounds.  Good representation of the game.

EDIT:
Might the news have to be edited for this?
