The background looks like nice art, but not a in-game shot. They've also stated that that render is from Maya, and from my own experience, Maya easily produces stunning images but not anything like you'd see in game.

They've also stated many times that 64-bit isn't happening.

Both of these statements by Kitkun are correct. Maya and no 64-bit .exe

New corvette class ships use their enhanced speed and maneuverability to weave through the battlefield, inflicting damage to enemy ships’ systems.

Corvettes damage ships systems? Maybe a new damage system?

The only thing that comes to mind Ryat would be the sub-system mechanics of Homeworld 2 though I'm not sure how well that would work in Sins. :-\

Probably more ability bound then anything else. (aka engine shutdown, weapon shutdown, etc.)

What Kitkun said.

I would definitely like to see the new corvettes. However, I wonder if they will be like Homeworld's deployable corvettes or if they will behave like fighters and bombers but on their own as opposed to being owned by a ship or structure. Also, a few questions to the Devs; will the graphics be more like Trinity? And will there be an overhaul or redesign of the appearances of some of the ships as well as a change to the sound system (i.e. how the lasers and missiles sound off when they get fired)?

I agree it will be this or an idea taken from DS where the EWS fighter causes different effects.

Just as conjecture, I envision them so far acting like the below two statements:

Basically miniature anti-ability / anti-anti-matter frigates that act, fly, and navigate like a stand alone strike craft. I'm curious what variants they will have of these and if they can be used to better control fighter / bomber spam?

Of course, since they'll be small (and thus cheap), I really doubt they'll do more than inconvenience the target.  For instance, rather than shutting down the engines of the target frigate, they knock them down by say 20% or weapon accuracy goes down by 5%.  Something small like that, otherwise the other abilities on big ships go to waste.
