00:10Today is a very exciting day
00:11for us. We're releasing the Elite Dangerous
00:13Alpha, the first phase of the alpha
00:15process. This will be the first time
00:17that backers of the game through
00:19Kickstarter and through our website, who are
00:21back to the alpha level, will be able to play
00:23the game. There will be other tests
00:26to follow, testing different elements of the game
00:27but today we're testing single player
00:30combat. All the different elements of that
00:31different weapon types, different build outs
00:33for your ship. You'll see
00:35fixed weapons, gimbaled weapons,
00:38different targeting mechanics, different
00:39opponents, single opponents, battles
00:41as well. Some of the things
00:43you'll see today are the way
00:46things like heat mechanics work
00:47so if you think of space
00:49sound is irrelevant
00:51but heat is what's really
00:53important, it's how you're seen, it's how your scanner
00:55works. So ironically projectile
00:57weapons like Gatling guns
01:00or whatever, in space
01:01give out much less heat than say a laser
01:04which is thermally much less
01:05efficient and makes your
01:07ship light up like a Christmas tree.
01:09In fact you can button up your ship, go cold
01:12go stealthy because in space the things
01:13that you can see is heat
01:15and you can shut down systems like your shields
01:17that generate heat so that people can't see
01:19all these different mechanics you can see
01:22today in the game.
01:23So hope you enjoy what you see
01:25and thank you for taking part
01:27and maybe if you're not taking part
01:29or perhaps not taking part at the Alpha level
01:30you might want to come and join us.
01:53So hope you enjoyed.
