Even if Yoshida confirmed that this was a screenshot taken from an in-game scene, it could simple have been a static scene that took 20 minutes to get generated on screen. The UI and everything else just got photoshopped and added afterwards to basically show what they -intend- to do, rather than -what they already have done now-.
Aye, i never said it was anything beyond a concept ui with stuff rendered on the graphics engine to go under it. So i suppose what i should have said is that they're proposing doing away with the old S/R and putting a packet monitor in instead. a simple coloured ping icon would suffice for most people though.
