I liked the trailers which tell a story about EVE better.

Exactly.

Just a list of features thrown at you with some visuals. Also a lot too fast so that its hard to pick up everything the first time you watch it.

I like the style of the old trailers more.


+1

I want to have more of the awesome storyline presented in the trailers... This trailer is something any alliance can do, while the prev. ones were totally amazing.



Somehow I think that was the point.


Right now I don't think they are that worried about new customers......they are whooing bittervets.

I think this would make a great TV commercial. Its short enough to catch peoples' attention. Blink

Watched all EvE trailers, many more then once (Dominion/Tyranis).

This one is by far the weakest, most pointless and unstructured of them all. Epic expansion, epic trailer fail.

Can't win them all I guess.

Visually interesting with a strong music choice that accentuated the cuts well. I noticed a lot of people comparing it to the EVE Never Fades video and honestly the Crucible trailer is far better.

Very good editing to the song (which itself is pretty good for dubstepesque club thingy), looks stunning but yes, bit too short and fast.

Crusible trailer is a short ad, not even a trailer, for this expansion. Eve never fades shows off everything EVE has to offer and what EVE as a whole is about. If I wanted to show someone new to EVE what it is about I'd still choose EVE never fades. If I wanted to show a bittervet some of what the crusible expansion provided, I'd show him that ad. Funnily enough it doesn't even mention most of the best features the expansion brought to the game, since it's main purpose is to show that CCP is all about spaceships again. I can see why they did that, but as trailers go it's one of the weakest if not the weakest they've ever done.

I love the soundtrack too. In fact, I've been listening to the full version of it all morning.

You can find it right here. It's made by a really good Icelandic dude who goes by "HaZaR" on the internet:

Yea... I found the trailer.... underwhelming

But I guess this whole expansion was to appease the bittervets, so I guess its understandable.

That, and Trinity

CCP, you get cookies for using gameplay footage again.
Would your trip over to Tama have anything to do with this?Twisted

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

IMHO this is the kind of trailer that we have been needing for a while now, a trialer where i can say to the friends i show it to "that is what eve really looks like" the staged prerenderd stuff was alright and all but i couldnt actually say yes you can do that stuff in game and it does realy look like that.

Love the soundtrack, a change from the "biblical" soundtracks of other trailers.
Make a longer one pretty please P

Well, as a trailer, I thought it was pretty good... I was disappointed though, because I did have my hopes up for a storyline trailer, something hopefully quite epic in scope - ideally, about sleepers and the coming emergence of Dust, coupled with capsuleer wars... Instead, I got Dubstep'd shiny, shiny...

I actually laughed. Mostly because of this -

So, grand experiment #1, give out 350K 60 day trial codes. The only way to get one is to ask an EVE player or have an EVE player ask you. We’re not looking for hordes of l337 kids with ADD We’re hoping that an extended trial to poke around in the EVE universe will give more folks the time needed to get engaged and get involved in EVE Online. And, given the crowded schedule of holidays and new releases around this time of year, we’re hoping that extended play time let’s people pickup and learn EVE at their own pace.

Haters gonna hate.

There's been crying for years that CCP stopped using gameplay footage in their trailers and now they do and still tears on the forum P

It was good and made the point Crucible is all about, lots and lots of fixes.

Do we want longer trailers ? Ofc we do, we want a EVE movie !!!

The new trailer was too short and was a total let down. It was also late. Evil
