  • All these nebulaes are beautiful but shown in false colors. Just saying for the guys who believe that universe looks like this. It doesn't.

  • @presidentegallente Is true, the color changes depending on the composition of the nebula. the nebula see blue like the stars, But this work is AWSOME!!!!!! congratulation to the ArtTeam of CCP!!

  • Unfortunately, they don't look quite like this in-game...on the latest SiSi build (and it goes live tomorrow), the "depth" of the nebulae shown in this video is not there...they are mostly see-through and do not appear to be 3D in-game, it looks an awful lot like its just painted on, like the current ones on live, albeit higher resolution.

  • YES

  • Oh yeah! The Space in EVE became same as the real Universe! Dreams become true!

  • this will be my favorite expansion because of these new nebula

  • Great work CCP.

  • They are working on this for the Winter 2011 expansion as well as a new raven model :3

  • This video sends chills down my spine every time.

  • WANT New Nebulae NOW!

  • I hope Dust 514 has space battles :D add me If you play MAG JIMvc2

  • @james65508 It will not. Space battles are reserved for EVE.

  • @Helge129 unless CCP creates new troop carrying ships that EVE players can use to bring DUST players into enemy ships for boarding?

  • @mattm12124 IIRC they said that's not going to happen.

  • awesome

  • oh man! I haven't even made it out of Forge region (just kidding) and the're adding more places or great.

  • Nebulae are so beautiful... thank you CCP for making them so great. Always take inspiration from Hublle pics, advice for future ones :)

  • To good to be true :P Cant wait.

  • soooooooooooo beautiful!!!!!! i love eve!!!

  • Hurry the damn up and add these! I'm tired of the same old ugly nebulae since 2003 or however long it's been. I want something pretty to look at besides ships.

  • gief nebulae now, NAAAOO!!!!!

  • oh please ccp , add this soon

    

  • wow

  • the old nebulae looked better :)

    -1

  • Can anyone tell me when these are being released? I haven't played EVE in a while, but I'm about to come back to it. Have they already been released?

  • @SamJamRic They have not been released yet. They plan to have it released in the winter expansion, so that's about within 10 weeks from now.

  • @baledain I just started playing again about 2 weeks ago :) can't wait for these things!

  • @SamJamRic I am just back in game for close to a month now. Had a one year break. CCP seems to be moving in the right direction again.

  • this is going to be so epic. i think CCP should add songs like this to the ingame jukebox... such an atmosphere! for everyone who wants to know the songname, it from Jóhann Jóhannsson - Escape

    Fly Safe! o/

  • When

  • Dear CCP. When is this gonna be released?

  • @GeormikeDN Soon (TM)

  • 0:18 eta carinae lookalike, wooh! *cheering as if seeing a celebrity*

    Looks as good as the Infinity nebulas. Now the question is, are they 3d or just background? Show a video of a flythrough and you have me as a subscriber for life. Just for that alone.

  • @Baleur they're gonna be only shiny backgrounds

  • @Mandrak789 So an indie game programmed by 1 person can do full 3d nebulas you can fly through, but CCP just makes flat skyboxes, still after all these years? Somewhat disappointing.

    Check out this nebula in Infinity --> LOxFvRy3KdQ

  • @Baleur Agreed; I've been pushing for that idea since the game's inception; I used to post on the forums suggesting that they implement it. But I'd like to think that their reason for not doing so has something to do with the sheer massiveness of the game.

  • @Baleur Although, one rumor I HAVE heard, is that while you can't fly through nebula itself, they technically are situated as actual "3d objects" in different areas, meaning, as you jump into a new system, you'll move to a new part of the nebula, & see the background vary slightly. See for instance 1:40 of this trailer - Gw0gOjOWDuI. This is a RUMOR I've heard; but if true, at least it would mean systems would have unique backgrounds, & each region of space would take on its own look and feel.

  • @Baleur Infinity has been in development since 2006 and there is still no hope of that being released within years to come. It has also hardly any ship models or gameplay developed as of yet. It is true that one programmer started the infinity project however there are now I believe 12 people on the project.

  • where do i get wallpapers like this, please.

  • @TheEstebanSchmidt Just google hubble space telescope and go to the gallery.

  • @baledain Thank you.

  • and i thought eve was already beautiful

  • I creamed myself. This alongside the new planets from last year is going to make the universe seem breathtaking.

  • @Alacmalalb you should visit wormhole space if u want to see nicer skyboxes

  • @chevezez Oh yeah, totally, those are nice too, but i think the new ones feel more realistic and have more depth. It's been a while since i ventured into wormhole space mind, but the new "I Was There" EVE trailer gives an idea how it will look in a fleet combat situation. It's just another step to making EVE feel more real.

  • @Alacmalalb Been to 0.0 And huge fleet fight suck because it GET SO DAMM LAGGY!!!!

  • @MrDerSozialist As others have said, your computer and/or internet connection sucks.

  • @Helge129 If its the case then I hope to get back on eve once I get a new computer . I tought everyone was getting huge lag , in huge fleet flight.

  • @MrDerSozialist In huge fleet flights (500+) there is some lag. But there are ways to counter it. Notably to zoom out and to hide brackets.

  • @Helge129 i love how some people complain about lag in massive fights but what other games can boast that they can handle hundreds of players in a fight... all while looking amazing.. love eve

  • @MrDerSozialist It's flawless until around 300 people. Lag starts to get bad around 500 people in system. Also the suggestion about turning brackets off etc, its server lag ie. modules don't cycle etc etc.

  • The music is "Escape," by Johann Johannsson, from the album "And in the Endless Pause There Came the Sound of Bees." The whole album is free to hear on Soundcloud.

  • Soon... well you missed incarna.

    Also, why change the turrets? The turrets are fine, how about missile launchers? Or drone bays?

    And what did you do to the shield effects!!!

    That's a whole faction that is missing out.

  • hey ccp forgot to put this on incarna? is there any information about this (when / why etc)

  • so.... beautiful! i got shivers and chills down my spine <3

  • Can anyone tell me if this is an incarna release? Google seems unresponsive on that.

  • @TheWorldIsCaris its not. :(

  • Song = Jóhann Jóhannsson - Escape

    Enjoy

  • Add this song to our playlist ....... not bad for exploration.

  • You guys do know this is sexy, right? :)

  • I don't think people realise, are these Nubula are litterly hundreds if not thousands of Light years in size, one can easly span an entire empire state, and If your in one of these nebula, you can't really grasp the scope of it, as one small tenddril, like the Nebula at 0:40, can hold thousands of stars, and those stars have hundreds of planets, hell you want to make it real, just have one nebula, just taken from angles.

  • Would be SWEET if you guys implemented nebulae harvesting for gas based mining. Would be like asteroids and "re spawn" with server maintenance. you would mine "Hydrogen Gas cluster" or "Dispersed Hydrogen Field." Also "tritanium dust" that you could compress into tritanium rock...something to think about.

  • Comment removed

  • lovely looking, but its only a background ffs!

  • sure is purdyful, but can we fly through them, or are they just system backgrounds?

  • To all non eve players who are looking to join the eve universe, please consider contacting me to give you a 21 day trial instead of the normal 14 day trial using the invite buddy system. If you agree to this ill give you 20million Isk upon activation. This is good for beginner players that will make sure you get the basic skill book and ships needed to start your journey. Of course you can add me in game and ill be more than happy to help you. To start just, send me a mail here on youtube. o7

  • @7Kiymaira7 - wow, that's quite a money-making tactic... I hope CCP catches you and bans your account! if they don't, I'll quintuple your offer! 100 Million! I'll STILL make off with bank, I could even stay afloat giving someone 300 Million.... dang

  • @brettpeirce lol. Don't make me laugh. Learn what is allowed and what isn't. I'm giving new players a boost of cash to start the game which will help them get into it more and possibly become a permanent member. Im taking advantage of the buddy system to help myself get monthly game time and giving back to the new players as well. Your an idiot for believing that CCP will ban me for this. haha

  • Comment removed

  • @brettpeirce lol I read your comment before you removed it. Ask yourself why your getting so frustrated about this.... I mean really..

  • Definitely gonna be my favourite update. So beautiful.

  • I am soo looking forward to these new updates. As an old vet of Eve, it is this kind of constant updating that has kept me and my multiple accounds substribed for over 5 years to a single game.

  • eve is not longer a onlinegame ... its a artwork

  • @Zerebrat87 TRUTH!

  • If anyone's interested about joining the EVE universe, send me a pm for an exclusive 21 days of EVE trial!

    Fly safe!

  • this...i see beauty in this. you can't really say that about ANY game.

  • Like...seriously. Wow. Or I should say, WoW.

  • 21 day free trial, message me if interested

  • 0oooooooooooooooooooo pretty i want

  • I'd love for more of the background music to be like this, a combination of electro-synth but with a lot more of the orchestral stuff…and to have it be of a higher bit-rate of course, because the current files are so heavily compressed. Oh, and fixing the jukebox for the Mac client. It's been a year and a half since it broke with Dominion.

  • Epic.  But are they just more background images? Or is it possible to actually fly THRU it?

    Example:

    watch?v=LOxFvRy3KdQ

  • @WarrantedFaith Well yes and no. Depending on what star system you are in it'll have a different angle of view of the nebula. For instance: Star System 1 would be "above" the nebula. Star System 2 would view it from the middle of it. And Star System 3 would have Below the nebula, thus looking up at it.

  • @PurpleNurpleUrple Well that's cool at least.

  • We want these in game now \o/

  • kinda sounds like a homeworld 2 track yes eve steal HW2's sound track and general feel of desperation and hardship

  • The music is "Escape," by Johann Johannsson, from the album "And in the Endless Pause There Came the Sound of Bees." The whole album is free to hear on Soundcloud.

    Note to CCP: PLEASE, for heaven's sake, hire this guy to re-do the music for EVE. It's now one of the oldest aesthetic parts still in use. 60-odd tracks of ambient stuff like this would be epic.

  • @ExecutorElassus Thanks a ton! :)

  • What is the music from?!

  • Does this mean that some low resolution nebulae will be replaced? I've flown in some areas where the nebulae weren't too impressive. If everything ends up looking this good, I'll be impressed!

  • If someone is interested about joining the EVE universe, send me a pm for an exclusive 21 days of trial. I can guide you through the first phases of this game.

    Fly safe!

  • Love the mixture of those Nebulas. Makes it feel 'realistic' in some ways. Can't wait!

  • Song = Johan Johannsson - "Escape"

  • beautiful, much better then the over the top bloom light sourced nebuli atm.

  • wow very nice CCP!

  • CCP WHAT SONG IS THIS.

  • @ousooners5193 Escape by Johaan Johaanson

  • No longer will I judge which system to rat in by belts, anoms or anything else. But simply by the beautiful... beautiful nebulae.

  • I wish the pretty pix/nebulae was more on-hands not just a picture you look at while warping from a to b

  • @WyanRogero it will be, sorta

  • I'm almost sure the soundtrack is from World of Darkness -sounds Very similar /watch?v=MOLT-lcMaHQ&hd=1 see?

  • I can see an useless upgrade this time too.

  • Very impressive

  • i just hope my pc can still play eve with this, walking in stations and the new turrets coming out :/ as long as low detail works still im happy, and high detail for the sexy videos is nice to

  • song source?

  • This sounds like World of Darkness Online music!

  • BEAUTIFUL!!! Please implement this asap

  • is this, like, matte paintings or what?!?

  • man just looking at these makes me feel like i am going to get lost in them ...absolutely spectacular.

  • I can almost see the Galactica making an FTL jump and appearing in the corner of the screen.

  • @Anoleis JJJUUUUMMMPPPP!!!!!!

  • @Anoleis Yeah, this does fit that show quite well doesn't it? Absolutely beautiful.

  • @Kiljaedenas Absolutely! : )

  • @Anoleis And then it'll get ganked by some pirates. >:P

  • I'm in awe, I hope someone makes something like that for me :3

  • Gorgeous :)

  • If god exists... this is what heaven looks like

  • Comment removed

  • tell me what the track playing?

  • My Video card just sent me a message saying if I play this game when these nebulae come out and continue to do so on all max settings, it's going to take me out with it...

  • Would love to see a breakdown on how you guys made these, like you did with the planets.

  • If anyone's interested to start with EVE, send me a pm for an exclusive 21-day long trial.

    Have a nice day! =)

  • absolutly fuckign amazing ccp, finaly soemthing to compare to how beutiful your wormholes are

  • If that is computer-generated then I am amazed. It looks so damn realistic!

  • If that is computer-generated then I am amazed. It looks so damn realistic!

  • awesomness²

  • They are beautiful, and created for purpose of an magnificent game !!!

    Really looking forward for new sightseeng trips around the universe :).

  • does anyone know the song? or is it a custom song?

  • @burningvenom as mentioned before, the song is Escape from Jóhann Jóhannsson, dat creepy epic piece of music.

  • @zwau Thanks (:

  • are these inspired from the Hubble telescope pics ? They;re beautiful. I shed Carebear tears of awe now.

  • Nice looking, I like to have nice view while ransoming pods... =D For the Bloodmoney cartel!

  • Schweeet!

  • i just went blinde to the rest of the world

  • Oh man this is really good stuff. Thumbs up!!

  • @CCPGAMES Is this real-time rendering, screenshots, or artwork/concept?

  • @left4trance This is indeed what it will look like ingame, the nebulae are simply skyboxes, nothing fancy about that..

    The fancy part is how epic this skybox looks :P

  • @Helge129 Doesn't appear to be simple skyboxes from the video. Watch it again and you can see that different parts of the nebulae move at different speeds. This may very well be just from compositing multiple skyboxes but what you seem to be suggesting, that it is 'just a skybox', is incorrect.

  • @qartarsauce It's still just a skybox - a skybox can be animated, as can be seen in UT3.

  • @Helge129 You are mistaken. As far as I'm aware UT3 does not use skyboxes in the traditional sense. Instead it uses a large sky-dome mesh rendered in world space along with multiple layers of actual geometry. Think about this; if a skybox texture is to cover the screen with appropriate texel density, say a minimum of 1024px, that would make 18 megabytes for each frame of a skybox animation. It is simply not feasible to have an animated skybox texture at a compelling resolution.

  • Only one thing i can say, this is most welcome..! I've been waiting for this.. since the stations and planets got upgreated the nebulaes looked crap

  • what is this music? it is so good

  • I pressed play and I--

    JIZZED.

    IN.

    MY PANTS.

  • He CCP, stop hijacking NASA's Photobucket account.

  • Its a shame my computer can't run anything this stunning

  • @MrNintoku Time for an upgrade ;)

  • @MrNintoku if your computer can display the current nebulae it should be able to display these.

  • Excellent. I have always adored the quality of the in game scenery. This addition to the game should bring about an entirely new level of ambiance to New Eden.

  • How about some black backgrounds ffs?

  • Wow, such a dramatic increase in quality, awesome work! All that needs to happen for total immersion is for each region to be assigned with a specific nebulae, and as you travel from system to system within a region, your view of the nebulae changes. also, the closer you travel to the region's center, the closer to the nebula's center to go. Kinda like homeworld where the distant nebula (garden of kadesh) grew bigger and bigger each mission until you ended up inside it. One can dream

  • @soapy05 I like your thinking. Most nebulae actually span distances well beyond the size of our own solar system, even hitting sizes of 10 times the width including the kuiper belt. Freelancer actually incorporated this into their views as well. I would love where some systems are actually in nebulae, presenting additional challenges of wear and tear on your ship from natural circumstances as well as the chance to get lost because of sensor degradation. A small chance to be sure.

  • @samsonguy10k well that is highly unlikely as there would be no planets in a system in a nebula as its basically the birth of a star...planets only start to form around that star maybe millions or billions of years later

  • @soapy05 Done, this is indeed what CCP is doing. However when you are actually inside the nebula it doesn't mean the system will be filled with a cloud, just that the nebula will stretch all around the skybox. I think the best way to think of the nebulae are like a cloud of fog. when you're standing in the fog all around you your view is obstructed but the area very close around you is not. This is the same way that you would see a nebula if you were inside it.

  • @soapy05 That is their goal if you listen to the art panel video. One can dream (:

  • @Meeeanie In that case, CCP just went up a couple of levels in my book. Now I just need a computer to run future eve in all its glory. Hell, I haven't even updated my characters yet since both my computer and laptop cant run the character editor...

  • Comment removed

  • Bout fuckin time

  • please gief britnez cuntroll for nebs kthyxbye

  • eve is a very big game of chess.

  • @johiidk PvP in EVE Online is like chess with bazookas

  • *Drools uncontrollably*

  • My eyes watered slightly while watching this. The Universe is a fascinating, beautiful, incomprehensible place. And this is just a game representation of that beauty.

  • CCP OMG DO IT!!!! LOL THIS LOOKS SO FREAKEN AWESOME!!!

  • MUSIC:  Jóhann Jóhannsson - Escape.

    from the album 'and in the endless pause there came the sound of bees'

  • Every time I see EVE videos i want to PLAY IT! then i remember the trail and how bad I was at it :((

  • What music is that? Pretty neat.
