An awesome expansion requires an awesome trailer! Will Winter have one?

The theme is warfare, after all, so it can't be too hard to think of a way to implement some slow-motion tier 3 battlecruisers with hybrids ganking supercaps with engine trails, shiny cynos and people with monocle strutting up their Amarrian CQ walkway with huge golden statues.

There is no real new features are there? Apart from player owned CO's and tier 3 BC's...

I don't get this this whole 'winter expansion' - From I understand it's all just a much needed balance/improvement patch.

Well, we also got the Future Vision video...

I would like to see something akin snapshots of changing political situation that prompted technical breakthroughs, technical breakdowns and changed policies throughout all parts of New Eden, be it in high, low or null.

brutixes killing hulks would make one hell of a trailer indeed

Does it really matter? Most trailers are a false representation of how Eve actually is.

Maybe they can do a remake of EVE Never Fades using the updated graphics?

Awesome ? - What`s awesome about it ?

Expansion ? - It won`t be wrong to call it what it is Arrow a patch

Depends on what your basis is. I never considered any Eve expansions to be actual expansions, just content patches. Well except for Apocrypha and maybe Trinity.

Be thankful you're not getting pandas and Pokemon like the MMO which we refer to being as that way --------------->

I hear it's going to be a ten-minute video of Hilmar apologizing.

Trailer featuring debugs, cutting off development of WiS, finishing features which were promised to be finished 4 years ago - I don't have enough imagination to see how this can be done.
