Hi Everyone,

Again, if a question has already been answered by David, please don't repeat the question.

Thanks.
 
Hello David

When planetary landing comes what would happen if you tried to land on a planet with an extremely high atmospheric pressure?
Will the ships have a limit to the amount of pressure they can take?

Thanks
 
Hi David.
I keep wondering how the reputation system will work among friends groups.
as stated in the DDF friends can freely transfers cannisters.
but what if one in the group turns hostile due to the reputations system?
hole sections of one group could turn hostile I figure wile you are far out doing other things.

thank you for your time.
 
Hello David,

I appear to have been sold a game you now can't deliver - can you please confirm an unequivocal full refund will be forthcoming due to the lack of offline mode?

Thanks (was a huge fan btw)
 
Hi David - will we see more complex trading analysis? Trend charts? Incoming stock? Galaxy events that impact trading routes?
 
Hello Mr Braben!

First of all thanks for making my dream game! Then i was wondering if you ever have time to play the game and what is your favorite feature/playstyle.
 
Hi David,
Does the "free access for Beta and Alpha backers to one of the 5 new ships" mean that everyone else will have to pay real cash for access to them?
 
David, thanks for the hard work everyone has done on this game, and for reaching out here.

My question (if someone else didn't get there first): Will all stars in the Galaxy have pre-existing hyperdrive links like we've seen in the Beta versions so far, or will players be discovering new hyperlinks through a starfield scanning method as mentioned in the DDA's? If it's the latter, then when will this feature be available? Thanks!
 
Can you shed some light for us regarding the naming of the next release, which I believe is 3.9. Does this imply quite a large incremental change from 3.05 ?
 
Are we going to see more galactic economic data in the game? A lot of players are asking for historic price data, and that was mentioned in the design archives. Is that still planned?
 
Hi David,

Will there be more features either at release or following that support and enhance co-op play? Similarly, is there plans for an expansion to include multiple commanders crewing a single ship?

Thanks!
 
Hi David, will we see a rich evolving storyline presented to us via the missions (and more) as well as the generated missions?
 
Good afternoon David. :)

Going back to the offline mode cancellation, a significant and vocal proportion of fans are upset at the decision to make the game online-only due to their significant difficulties in obtaining and keeping a reliable and affordable internet access. Many of them are seeking a refund, and it is all generating a lot of news coverage by the games and now mainstream (BBC) press. My question is: What advice and words would you have to offer for all of these people?

Many thanks.

Hi David,

In the future is bounty hunting going to be more dynamic in the sense that it will involve "tracking" in a similar vein to the Constrictor mission in the original Elite (C64 version) as opposed to merely farming AI spawns in a predesignated area?
 
Navigation

Hi David,

Do you have any plans to improve navigation? The improved route finder was useful but a system where you can set a destination and it gives you a system to system route would be useful for trading and long distance travel.

Kind Regards
