Please tell us something about this week's ATV Sneak Peek.

It was the Reliant interface, wasn't it? That looks very good. The HUD previsualization: Zane did awesome, awesome work on that.

Now, this is a previs. It's not something that's enabled in game. Another word we use is look dev. It's them finding different ways and finally figuring out what look they want before they have to actually build it in the game. The MISC UIs all tend to use 3D holograms. I think that's the direction we've been going with that. So you can expect similar-looking HUDs on all MISC ships eventually, at some point: Starfarer, Freelancer.

And actually, looking back to the earlier question about viewing angles, one of the big things that helped prompt that was that we wanted the Reliant, more than any of the other MISC ships, to have just an unprecedented viewing angle. It has the biggest open cockpit. We removed a bunch of struts from some of the initial concept art to make sure you just have this great clean look. And now the HUD helps with that, so you don't have anything really in front of your face. It's all cleanly tucked up at the top.
