1.) It's "incomplete" in your opinion. Other people's opinion may differ from yours.
2.) You paid €50 for the game and are moaning about paying €50 for an expansion? I have no sympathy for you there. I "paid" £200 for this game, others I know paid a lot lot more than me. If you don't want the expansion, that's OK, it's your choice, but please don't come on here and moan about it being expensive.


Your so right. I paid a lot for this game and have had every pennies worth thus far. A miserly 30 quid for all the dedicated qualified and trained staff hours it takes to get these beautiful things created for us lot is nothing at all. Have some more of my money FD. With pleasure.

I'm sorry, but this is too annoying. I paid 50 euro's for an incomplete game at release, which is still incomplete, by most standards. And now, you ask us to pay another 50 euros, for the benefit of getting future updates of the second season? No! I knew there was something suspicions when at every update you put emphasis on the "free" update, like we should be thankful that we got fixes. This simply looks like pure greed. Every year, another 50 euros please, is that what awaits us?

This is very disappointing :(

A very similar comment to your last, which incidently you didn't answer any of the queries on before just moaning about the same thing again. It has always been said, and never hidden, that there would be paid expansions released and it was implied that they would be coming roughly once a year.
 
Anything you do can become repetative, and like docking on stations I dont think landing on a rock will be much different in the long run. It all comes down to the motive and why you land there i guess. But hey, its a game - not ya life! ;-)

I guess it also comes down to what you want from a game like this. Thats something I havent seen you talk about yet (or maybe you have and I havent seen it - very very likely).

Im looking forward to horizons as it encompasses some of the things I would like from a game like this.
SC on the other hand I may never get into, as I dont think its the game for me. First person shooter in a spaceship game? what?

Diversity is life though. See you out there.
 
Yes - anyone with a lifetime expansion pass gets this.

Michael

Michael do existing expansion pass holders/premium betas also unlock the Cobra Mk 4?

Oh and I understand now why there's been no new content real added in a while. Turns out you WERE adding it and we just couldn't see it yet. Fair enough.

[edit] Already answered while I was typing. Ignore this, and thanks.

I have question. Apologies if it's been asked and answered elsewhere but if it has I can't find it...

If I pre-order through the Frontier store will it integrate with my Steam-purchased copy of the game, and will I also get the veteran's discount? Or will it be getting a separate Steam release?

Thanks in advance.

High five on the announcement. As excited by this as I was by the Kickstarter goal being reached.

It isn't explicitly listed MB, but I upgraded to Alpha from a Standard Beta kickstarter. I seem to recall that it included the expansions, but the content is no longer visible - do you need me to pay MORE money, or am I cool?

<fidget fidget fidget>
 
So Elite: Dangerous has an expansion called Elite Dangerous: Horizons?
Does anyone else take issue with the comma placement here?
.
Shouldn't it be called Elite: Horizons? Or Elite: Dangerous: Horizons? Will the passenger expansion be called Elite Dangerous Horizons: Passengers? Then walking around expansion will come out, called Elite Dangerous Horizons Passengers: Walking Around.
.
This is a big deal guys.
.
At any rate, at least there's no :H smileys, so we have that at least.

There's no comma.

Sure, there's a colon, but there's no comma. :p
 
Yes, you'll get the Cobra MkIV.

Michael

Michael, can you specify - does this idea of "seasons" (good idea btw) means core gameplay won't be extended in 2016? I hope it's not true, because there are several fundamental pieces lacking (like wrecks or 2nd tier persistent NPCs), which doesn't cover expansion material.

If you can clarify, please do. I can ask it in QA of course too.

And ohh, thanks for delivering landings. I really doubted you could do that in a year post release. Happy to be proven wrong.
 
Way too expensive ... So new players pay £40 and get ED, existing players pay £30!!!

Sorry Frontier (assuming the above is correct) but that is really not on.

PS I got this info from EuroGamer.

Anyone know why the discount isnt being applied? I bought ED through steam, but in my transaction history in the account it shows it as being part of my account.
