Dont try to sell action and random cuts in a cinematic. Its pointless.
If you have to do a cinemantic, make it a short film. Recap the story of how Humanity found auraxis, show the fleet that went through the wormhole, show the struggle to stay alive, show the fighting on those ships, show how Connery died, show how Auraxis was found and terraformed, show how good life was on Auraxis for a whole lot of years, and show how it all breaks apart and the war starts. Tell a story, and you get fans. Show action just because you can, and all you get is "LOL F2P GAME MUST LOOK CRAP".

I think the OP suggests the story cinematic, because non-engine action cinematic is most commonly welcomed as a colorful wrapping for a piece of crap. Escpecially when it comes to F2P, idd.
