Spot the correlation between giving FDev money and us getting nice things.
The correlation is FDev give us nice new things and then we give them money.Spot the correlation between giving FDev money and us getting nice things.
According to https://gameranx.com/updates/id/518786/article/steam-awards-2024-announced/:I must be dumb....I've just spent over 15 minutes trying to work out how to vote and cannot work out how.
Yes, I have a Steam Account.
I'm using Firefox Web browser.
Can someone please advise a step by step on how to vote?
If it's obscure, or too hard, then people will just give up.
It might be easy for everyone here who have posted above, but it aint intuitive and I feel the OP should have either linked directly to the voting page, or included a how to.
Thanks
Pssst.. Technically they didn't "abandon" anyone. As far as I know, the console servers are still up and running. They had to make the difficult choice to stop development or else we might not have a PC version either today. It's a 10 year old game after all. Cheap gaming PC's to run Elite can be had for 200 bucks on ebay. Half the price of a cheeseball
What would you call what they did then ?Pssst.. Technically they didn't "abandon" anyone. As far as I know, the console servers are still up and running.

The console rule is not true, see Cyberpunk 2077 dlc for proof of thatAgain, if the costs are too high and the game doesn't make a profit then it's either Maintenance Mode or End of Game
The last two points are important because Elite is not making the revenue from unit sales, especially after ten years, so if you want continued development on this title; they have to generate cash somehow. It's the brutal reality of running a MMO these days.
- Apple refused to support the right API and it would have cost too much to rewrite Elite just for the Mac.
- Although VR is great, how many players actually have it? I'm glad they kept VR in Odyssey at some form but unless there's a massive increase of VR players, it won't get in (Despite my wishes).
- The console version couldn't run Odyssey at the correct frame rate, and there are Sony and Microsoft rules regarding DLC for games (i.e. must work on all platforms).
- You're not expected to pay for the new ships, you can get early access if you want them, but (if you have Odyssey) you'll get them for without extra money.
- Yes, prices have gone up but where are they supposed to get the revenue from to keep this game running?
Yep, Today is December 5 here in NZJust visit the shop page and scroll down to the Steam Awards part and then you should be good to go from there
Edit: as @Kzak said, sadly it's gone somehow, I can't find it anymore, too...![]()
Of course! Already have!View attachment 410493
Greetings Commanders!
Elite Dangerous is hurtling towards it's 10th Anniversary and it has been a truly out of this world journey along the way!
We've had planetary landings, alien invasions, a misguided scientist trying to commit genocide and so much more! With nearly a full decade worth of astounding content, stories and updates we're really proud with all that has come to pass with Elite Dangerous...And more is yet to come!
That's why we're asking for your nomination for Elite Dangerous in the Steam Awards 'Labour of Love' award!
I would call it no further development for weak machines. It happens every day. Does Ford still make parts for the 1977 Pinto? No it does not. Version 3.8 is still playable on console, and will be for the foreseeable future. There is no "console rule" and Frontier is not Projekt Red. Different company, priorities, financial situation, decision making. Nominating is not mandatory and if you don't agree just play Cyberpunk.What would you call what they did then?
The console rule is not true, see Cyberpunk 2077 DLC for proof of that.

Didnt they pack up in 2015? Apart from the one off reunion.Ok, now how about you guys FIX THE SHADOWS?
To be fair, they disbanded three times. One could get lost a bit with that.Didnt they pack up in 2015? Apart from the one off reunion.
