From what I heard the Hotas X for the PS3 is largely compatible with the PS4 (need confirmation, though). Hopefully that will work with ED, since the X can still be bought at a cheap price online.
ED Dev Team Food for thought I am a Ps4 owner here , I don't pc game but have friends that do they keep telling me to play this game but I refuse because its not on a ps4. now I am excited to hear that its coming , now with the lack of full games for the psvr , and seeing a lot of mindless crap coming off the steam servers on the psvr. I am hoping this game is full blown and made for PSVR- it would be such a disappointment if It was not, If it supported PlayStation Vr Play Definite hands down Buy, but if not then I probably will not. Currently Playing Eve Valkyrie But There needs to be more to a game then just online battle and that is one thing eve misses.
would like to hear you thoughts !
would like to hear you thoughts !
They are looking into getting Elite ready for PSVR, according to what they said on the PS4 launch post on Facebook, but no time or date was mentioned.
Y ES! My friend can finally be my wingman .(If it IS cross platform)
?! Microsoft and Sony have been doing it for exactly the same time since 2002 along with mac and PC
Seat of the pants.
Im sorry to give you bad news, but Cross play is not a thing. (yet??)
A very big market, the playstation ! Good for the game

Ha that explains why ELITE DANGEROUS is so far behind in development but I suppose we should have expected it right from the start, because of the number of times the Developers change there minds on what parts of the game they are working on.
I would never consider buying or using any kind of console, but not to sound to bitter as I realise FRONTIER DEVELOPMENTS have to keep making money so I to welcome all the console players XBOX1 and PLAYSTATION users.
But I would also prefer you to keep working on the game developments we have all been expecting you to be working on.

Hmm... This might actually be a good thing.
Maybe (hopefully,) SOE takes notice that such space Sim/Arcade games exist and that there is a market for them. Then maybe (hopefully) SOE might buy the ED IP (instead of creating one of their own from scratch) or just maybe just buy FDev and make them a studio.
Then with SOE's experience with MMOs, experience with storytelling and formidable QA, ED might progress to reaching it's potential and dare I say, even fulfilling DB's dream of ED.
OpenPvE with story, better missions, scaled AI per security zone, more planets with more stuff on them to explore...
OpenPvP with massive fleet battles protecting the Empire, the Federation or the Alliance (since SOE is more than capable of having their own servers and scratching the P2P nonsense.) Piracy with lucrative deals and better declaration of intent. C&P for both PvE and PvP.
Fixing bugs, and not bringing them back in the next patch/update!!!
(Instead of spending time and effort continuously balancing weapons. Well ok, so far 2 betas to balance weapons.)
Ahh... one can dream.
Edit: Should have done some research. SOE is no more and has been sold off since 2015.

This is interesting - I think it gives us an insight into the 10 year plan
Year 1 - PC release and enough to keep them happy (ish)
Year 2 - XBox release and enough to keep them happy (ish)
Year 3 - PS4 release.. & TBA
This bit is speculative
Year 4 - Nintendo Wii
Year 5 - Apple ipad release (depend on whether their technology has been updated by then though)
Year 6 - Samsung and other smartphone release
Year 7 - Updates for the BBC Micro (probably MMO)
Year 8 - Updates for the Commadore 64
Year 9 - Updates for the ZX spectrum 48K and Amstrad products (excluding that scooter thing)
Tear 10 - TBA and close for winter as its finally arrived.
