- Опубликовано: 24 янв 2025
- This is a cinematic trailer, set in Elite Dangerous universe, that showcases the game's varied and nuanced facets and roles which players can embrace. From trading to deep space exploration, or action-packed human or alien combat - the opportunities are plenty.
The filming was completed without any special account, tools or privileges that would make it easier. Instead, tens of thousands of LYs have been travelled to get the best imagery and action takes which are the epitome of Elite Dangerous. Some scenes you see took weeks in planning and/or waiting for the right conditions. Others were cherry picked from hours-long sessions following the "action".
Special thanks to fellow players who either provided guidance and information on the game and it's stunning locations, provided transport around the galaxy or directly participated in the filming. In no particular order:

Incredible. Well done, Commander, you did this whole community proud. Fdev should take some notes, you blew it out of the water
and in engine no less
@@madskater5 The cinematography, the framing, the camera work, the environments, the cuts from the rotating perspective from thargoid to guardian (which was SICK), all of it comes together to form a beautifully choreographed experience, with some EPIC narration as the cherry on top. All while in engine, using none of FDEV's own cinematics. Simply incredible
The two janitors still working at FDEV should take some notes :3
@@lotuschamp7796 There might only be janitors at the end of the year working on elite dangerous
Fan-fecking tactics!!!. FDev....take note.....this is how its done.
I've neglected my cockpit recently, but this vid has rekindled my love for ED, by highlighting what a great title it is.
My only ( minor ) observation is to do with the audio levels... found it hard to hear voice over at some parts.
But, seriously, awesome vid o7 Cmdrs
again, the fans understood something much better than the publisher..... sad, because the game has such untapped potential..... Fdev!!! wake up and start listening to the community!
Incredible. Better then offical trailers.
Pure demostration of ED is not dead.
Unlike the cerebral convolutions of FDev
United we stand.
It was an honor to be apart of this, CMDR. Spectacular work!
Rotating beluga
From someone who has played since 2015 and have clocks thousands of hours of playing and meeting people and lifelong friends, bravo.
wow this is insane. I really wish that this was the actual official trailer. This needs 1000x more views at the very least.
This game is far more than what critics give it credit for. Elite Dangerous Odyssey is an amazing game. It's huge. You can make your own way. My way has been exploration, but wow, this game is the only game I play regularly. Great job on the video!
Looks fabulous. A credit to you and all involved. Right on, Commanders!
I recently tried Elite dangerous after a couple years hiatus. Looked at a planet in Odyssey and compared it to Horizons legacy. Bearing in mind the criticism by many that it's been downgraded, I was surprised and felt it was the opposite. The legacy version looked more blurry and cartoonist (beiges etc) compared to Odyssey which was more realistic in terms of landscaping. The station interiors were sharpened and more detailed in Odyssey. This may explain slightly lower frame rates as the graphics engine has more to process. Just my opinion, I expected to concur with the critics but found I couldn't.
Man, if I saw this trailer before playing the game - I'd sell my kidney just to play it, lul. Very well done.
This gave me goosebumps. What a pretty game, and what a great video! Whoever did the voice should get hired, could have easily opened with "in a world..."
WE
ARE
ELITE
Causally dropping one of the best Elite Dangerous edits I have ever seen.
Incredible stuff.
Outstanding footage. Best camera work, blocking, & direction ever put to work in ED.
Best advertisement for Elite Dangerous. Ever.
Con decir que al ver este video me han entrado ganas de volver a jugar el Elite Dangerous. Eso si despues veo que apenas han puesto contenido nuevo, los bugs de siempre, la falta de comunicacion por parte de Frontier con la comunidad, etc y se me a pasado.....
Ahh the goosebumps
An amazing cinematic, I love the buildup and I absolutely enjoyed the culmination.
Fly dangerous, CMDR!

Congrats Ansic. What a wonderful video! Truly a masterpiece. Well done!!
Wow - just wow. I could say lots of things like glory to all the fighters, explorers, pirates, merchants, haulers, miners, racers, smugglers, thargoid hunters... and still miss folks out - so the best reaction I can possibly give is...

Goosebumps for watching video of an old game? Did not see that one coming! Everything in place here, the music, the narration, images, editing. Even giving the credits in the beginning of the video was a nice touch. Absolutely great! o7 Commander.
2:11 that is one of the coolest shots i've ever seen! One of the best cinematics I've watched in a while.
Well done cinematics cmdr! o7!
This game has its ups and downs, but nothing I've ever done on my computer in my 36 years on this pale blue dot compares to my time on Distant Worlds 2. Very little in my real life does either. And Elite gave me that opportunity. Regardless of what the future holds, I will always be eternally grateful to this game for those precious few weeks.
coming up on playing for 9 months now i will never be able to catch up on the love a lot of players have for this game.
no planetary waypoints are able to be set for explorations sake or in mining where those would help keep track of where you have been but you do have an infinite amount of probes. i dont understand the stupidity behind that.
But the sights, the fact that i can go for thousands of lightyears in any direction and see the sights still after 9 months thats what makes me love this game. ill never catch up and i do WANT those waypoints but i do love this game for the sights.
Great video, elite is a legendary, genre defining game that changed the industry back in 1984. Heres hoping elite lives on forever its a special game
Best space exploration game there has ever been. This is amazing thank you for this. Well done, Commanders.
Beautiful visuals. Well done!
REALLY appreciate the amount of work that takes 👍 🙂 o7
o7 thank you commander for showing the beauty of my number 1 game for over a decade now.... i´ve been with it since the beta.... over 12000 hours in the game, and sometimes tend to overlook it´s beauty....
thank you for reminding me of it again... o7 see you in the black, good hunt and watch your six....
Wow, just wow. The only reason this can't be an official trailer is that you can't experience all of this after only 20 hours of game play. On the other hand, if you are prepared to invest the time, you will experience this and more.
We are Elite
Makes me want to go back and jump into the verse. Fdev please take note of this, Elite needs more of this, a team passionate to tell the tale of elite, imagine a full campaign with content like this, exploring each fantastic journey a commander can take.
Wow wow wow !!! absolutely incredible all of this superb game deserves and more and an epic showcase for Elite Dangerous Odyssey. IMHO FDEV should buy the full rights to this masterpiece video as it would massively increase game sales of EDO.
This is absolutely wonderful. Thank you for taking the time to make this work of art o7
glad to have participated. congrats! amazing! o7 CMDR!
o7 glad to have taken part of the AXI operations at the spires
This is absolutely brilliant! Great work! this should be bought by Frontier as a Game Trailer
Absolute fantastic, so love these cinematic films made by wonderful content creators like yourself; they really do promote what is a wonderful game, and I hope it helps Elite keep going and FDev realise and understand the community that love and support it, well done, keep up the great work and thanks, also, kudos and a hat tip to whomever wrote the background music, it was phenomenal.
This really gave me goosebumps, congratulations on producing better communication than Frontier :)
Now if only the game was that exciting... I can't really find a reason to launch ED nowadays, especially since FD went silent with it... Where are TRUE atmospheric worlds? (most basic space game can do them well enough, I'm not expecting Star Citizen level of details, but at least give us something. I'd be happy with endless water worlds, or forests, or anything really...)
I am among the few who really liked Odyssey, even during the beta, but it still lacks content (more weapons, maybe suits variations, more ground vehicles). Plus not a single new ship in 5+ years? Come on FD... And to everyone asking what would a new ship/gun/vehicle bring, I'd answer variety is the spice of life. They don't need to do anything different, but at least we wouldn't be seeing the same 4/5 ships everywhere in the universe.
Anyway your trailer made me want to give ED a go again, until I'm bored again by the end of the weekend lol
Let me just pick my jaw up off the floor....
Wow. Just...Wow.
Wow ❤️❤️ this is mega gave me goose bumps watching.
amazing work !! make the community proud !
Into my 2024 worth keeping playlist. That was a cool cinematic bro.
This is really.. really well done.
If fdev had this as an advert for their game..... it would be nothing short of perfect
Thank you. It really feels nice to see that ED is not dead.
You know, this video makes me fairly emotional, for I have put a nice chunk of time into Elite Dangerous, as I really love the core gameplay and the wide variety of things I can do, I just struggle in convincing myself to return to this game. I just don't like the state Odyssey created for this game, and I don't want to play on Horizon with only half the content, so I'm kinda stuck. I keep going back and forth as to what to do, and those thoughts will probably keep on going through my mind, for I have the quite the history with this game. Maybe one day something will completely draw me back into Elite Dangerous, but for now I wait for mind to possibly make the decision to return to this frustratingly beautifully creative game.
In addition to what others are saying, I really liked the small detail of how the words are said in cadence with the music. Well done!
Stupendous video! Also, people should know: the game is really **that good** and deserves showing off like this! Well done CMDR!
Thank you for this trailer. Now I can proudly show to others what I am playing without hard explaining. Its space odyssey
We all got the tools now. Now we need you, the people of the Elite community. Let us make full feature movies. Not tv-shows, or just in game cinematics. There is nothing stopping you now. Show us.
When I watched this video yesterday, I was so blown away by it that I completely forgot to like and comment. A brilliant work of art this is.
Nice. Like a trailer, but for an existing thing. It'd be cool if it went viral and brought in players.
Best cinematic I've ever seen for this game, great work.
Wow, what an incredible trailer! If I didn't already have Elite, this would make me buy it!
CMDR Largetto Evander of the Hammond of Texas (TZG-0XW). Well done, Commander! o7
and now I will come back to the game, what an amazing video!
That's Elite for me!!!!! ... bloody well-done!! nuff said!
The part where all the ships come out of super cruise and into that camera angle looked amazing🤩
i recently started playing again, i love to see the community somewhat still here. Very well done on this creation, very good cinematography.
Fdev should have already offered you a job dude! So well done! So impressive! So excited to see what you do next :D
Astonishing !
Well done CMDR

That was phenomenal! Love it. -- Signed, a quintuple elite.
Damn! That was amazing! Glad to have been able to be there, I look forward to see what else you will make in the future!
I love how you put [unofficial] in the title because this is better than anything fdev has put out in a while. If that wasn’t there a lot of people would think this was official. Absolutely incredible CMDR.
Excellent work CMDRs.
So much passion for a game which others are quick to declare is dead.
o7
3:05 Just awesome 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
My god this is absolutely brilliant! A beautiful way to show what the game has to offer!
Der Wahnsinn. Eine Arbeit von extra Klasse. Wirklich überwältigend gelungen.
That was amazing!
This gives me chills! What an amazing cinematic. I dont know how many times I have watched this :D.
This video made me wanna play Elite for another 3000 hours.
Very nice trailer. Elite Dangerous is still the most complete package for "realistic" space game. Will ever be my favorite. o7 Cmdrs.
Congratulations, a lot of love went into that, others commentators below have said more and much better than I can.
Sick! What a perfect way to show how amazing the game is, let's hope that it'll bring more people in
The best trailer so far 💖
Holy crap, you way over did what I was expecting. This sent shivers down my spine...
This is one of the most hype videos I've seen for this game. Absolutely love it.
This kind of trailer is what will help to bring back a player number renaissance - plenty of disillusioned Starfield players etc., who will be keen for something more. Let's make our 10 year anniversary a good year.
I'm going to play Elite Dangerous today. last time I "really" played was back in February '23
Awesome, very well done. It's a shame Fdev don't put this much effort into the game. Feels like it's been practically abandoned at this stage. Scary to think what state it would be in if not for the community keeping it going with this sort of thing.
This is amazing! Please continue your beautiful work.
Excellent piece. FDev should license it from you immediately to help draw new players. Take a bow.
Amazing edits . This almost makes you want to log back in…. Almost …
Hooollyyy fuucinkgluuuaaayyy this is amazing!!!!! I'm proud to be AXIN member and watching this only makes me prouder! Fantastic Job!!!!!!!
Came back to elite for the python mk2, Nice to see community still doing amazing things.
This is ELITE , you are ELITE , and the players keeping this great game alive are ELITE .....
One of the best Community of all game, passionate and with a limitless creativity. Thanks to all Commanders from all around the galaxy , o7 , Fly safe and stay united !
Can only add that you have done amazing work in showcasing Elite. Showing it as we see it in out minds and hearts. o7 Cmdr.
Félicitations !!! Superbe, incroyable, fantastique , pleins les yeux et les oreilles. A la hauteur du jeu !!! 🤩❤❤❤
that last scene was chilling, awesome voice over and sound amazing
This is incredible trailer
A fan ad doing what FDEV couldn’t do for two years, getting me, a LEP holder, to reinstall.
Amazing Video. I´m proud to be a Cmdr. in this community.
o7 and see you in the black
