Started a new Ryder after the CC patch, and when I reached this scene I thought for a moment I'd completely lost my mind. Thankfully I still had a recording of the same scene from launch day, so here's a comparison...
While I still don't mind the original, I can see why they changed it. Aside from removing Ryder's goofy grin, the new version shows off the ship far more dynamically than the single low angle of the original version. Nice to see they fixed the exposure levels too.

Good pick up, haven't started a new game since 1.08 but will be sghortly and look forward to the improved version. |

Good eye! That's a better entrance for the Tempest -- I dig it.

I admit that I'm a bit torn about this. The launch clip definitely needed work, and the revised scene is more dynamic and polished, but I kinda think I prefer the way the Tempest itself was presented in the old clip, because I have a fondness for the perspective from the ground watching a big grand VTOL landing. I probably would have preferred also if the expression and camera framing shot of Ryder be fixed rather than scrapped.

Hmm, I kind of want to start a second playthrough, but I also kind of want to wait until they're done with all the patching :/
Maybe I should wait until they've done at least one SP DLC, then at least most of the fracasses will have been patched up?

Also I got some new dialogue during a Voled mission with Jaal and Sara talking about Akksul (Sara now talks as if she knows who he is if you talked to Jaal about him already), so it seems they fixed some flagging issues too.

I thought that was different. There seems to be a lot of small improvements with the latest patch that weren't specifically mentioned.

That's a nice thing the devs have going, finishing the game three months after it's out.

Hmm...I wish they had just touched up the original, that entrance was pretty grand, but the new one still looks good. Changing the perspective of the shot really does change the whole scene, though.

I really wish they just focused on the bugs and glitches instead of fixing what isn't broken. What was wrong with the original scene anyway?

It gave me shivers actually, because it reminded me more of the Normandy reveal, with the music crescendoing. It lacked that intro impact before because it was zooming around in the distance. Now it feels like a real ME ship intro.

Interesting...wonder what else they put in. So far the Tempest intro, the camera seems closer up when chatting, the characters have more expressions, the Jaal/Sara romance had many things reanimated and I noticed when Jaal is telling Evfra he wants the help the Pathfinder, the camera zooms in on him and away from my PC and Evfra. |

Interesting...wonder what else they put in. That's exactly what I was thinking. In the new one, the film is less shaded, it's more clear. Plus, every Mass Effect needs it's ship, and a proper intro for the Tempest is a great addition. Also, I've always wondered why I imagined Cora with a white shirt while she wears a blue one. I don't remember when it changed but it's been a while like that. |

I'd still love to know what the deal with Cora & Liam's mostly white outfits was. Were they supposed to make them more unique and the devs decided they looked too bland? Or were they left over from an earlier build where everyone wore them? It's just fascinating because even at launch, before any patches were released, other Andromeda Initiative NPCs wore the blue shouldered version that was later given to Cora & Liam. |

It's sort of like the low-rank colonists outfits, so I think the blue is for higher ranks, and official AI colors. When they designed them, they just left them in commoner clothing. It always reminded me of the Inquisitor's "PJ's" lol |

Yeah, I think the new trailer is more "Bird's eye view" like in a Marvel Studios movie. I like that there's no longer a shot of a broken facial expression but I don't even think they made the cutscene better. It looks more cinematically refined but the cinematic style they chose this time isn't as grand. |
