Starfarer sneak peek details?

TL;DRThis week's sneak peek showed three Starfarer images: level-of-detail work, an interior shot, and a newly added rear observation window in the cockpit, with the speakers also musing about other uses for the ship.

Yes, this week's sneak peek on Around the Verse was three more images of the Starfarer, including a look at the LOD work that's going on, as a follow-up to last week's LOD segment. Another shot of the interior, which is looking fantastic. And a third image was actually a look out the rear window of the Starfarer. So when you're in the cockpit and you walk back in the cockpit, there's actually a rear observation window. And that's what you see. You actually look over the rest of the ship there.

Well, not to undersell the rear window, but that is actually what makes it a sneak peek, a thing we've never seen before, because the window is new. It was added this week.

I love the Starfarer so much.

I love it too, and I think we're going to have to talk about doing some other things with the ship's design, because it should be more than just a tanker freighter.

It definitely has that Starbug, Serenity vibe to it. What I'd like to see people do is when it becomes flight ready, when it's in Crusader, you load up at Olisar, you load like eight people on the ship, you let them all find hiding places, and then you fly the ship out to non-protected space, and you have your own little flying FPS level in space, and you let people fight each other until the last man's standing, and you win some kind of prize. Starfarer FPS combat.
