Here we go...
- Thread starter GreeceyChops
- Start date
Me neither... This is fun. I feel young again... Are we there yet?
Really wish FD would set up a website for ED and post news on it instead of using the Kickstarter. I didn't pledge through kickstarter myself. Also no email as of yet.
I pledged before the kickstarter finished but I used paypal. Maybe that is why.

I think one of the reasons they use Kickstarter is that everyone (except the PayPal only (?)) will get the email then. PayPal emails are probably sent on an individual basis, would take a lot more work to send out.
Got mine. Feels like its happening now.
Increased my initial backing.
Is it really a year away......

If you didn't get an email as planned hit up https://elite.frontier.co.uk/backers/login/ and go through the 'forgot' password process to skip the .
Thanks for the speedy response.
See I got all excited when I saw that. I will have to make do with the screenshot for now and just imagine clicking on all the options.I've got the email from Kickstarter saying that there'll be an email along soon! But no link to the app yet
Btw, this site seems to be a little slow just now! I guess everyone is here after getting mails too, huh.
*snip*....this is actually happening isn't it
This is going to be LONG year!
Indeed!! But isn't that sooooo AWESOME?
I still can't believe that it will really happen. I so long dreamed about it and thought myself;
"Ah, will never come, bury your Dreams. It was once and it is your childhood, now move on."
And now? I feel this might be my last "really big Game" so the circle is closed then. Everything else what will come in the next 30 to 40 years will be just a Gimmick.
I am so thankful @ David & the Frontier Team. I dont have more words in english for that.
I bow deeply in front of you!!!

Liking the fact I can upgrade, couldn't afford to splurge on DDF just after Christmas...

I've not been this excited since I was small and waiting for my Dennis the Menace membership pack to arrive in the post....which my Brother then ruined for me by putting down his trousers. (not to self keep my 42 year old big brother away from my Elite box when it arrives)
I have a log in!

First thing I did was upgrade from Beta to Alpha tester... £50 to bring my Elite experience ~3 weeks closer? Bargain!
I really need to save some money this year though, so alas no more upgrades* unless there's an unexpected cash windfall.
(*he says, cursor still hovering over the upgrade button)
