It's fan edited official footage. Hence, not an official trailer.

With the Kickstarter page factored in, the funding is at $1.8 million :) I think this is going ahead!

Well the Kickstarter goal has been reached and it appears they'll easily meet the 2M$ goal. I've gone ahead with the Early Adopter Scout package for now. I may upgrade later depending on how things develop. I believe the Early Adopter tier gets an RSI Aurora. I don't know exactly what kind of ship that is, buy you can update the others as well.

you said what i said without knowing it?

The game-play is taken from many of Chris Roberts' demonstrations
hence- Roberts shared the footage in the site, someone DL and Edit it. not played on his own.

I know we are arguing semantics at this point, but this shouldn't be hard to reconcile.

It doesn't matter where the footage came from. If it's a reedited montage of official clips set to new music, it's a new creation. While the footage and music already existed, this video did not exist until it was made by someone.

Who made the video in question? A fan did.
Is it a trailer? Yes.
Therefore, it's a fan made trailer.
QED

I may get some add ons, but my account hasn't been linked to my pledge yet as I donated when the backup site was being used.

So long as the pledges reach 3 million then I'm happy, that means that we get the persistent universe from launch day!

I think there is a form you can fill in to speed up the linking process. You can access it through your profile.

I already filled out.

I think so, although the donations seem to be slowing a little.
