I really wish there was a space game like Elite

...that let you play the way you want to play and be who you want to be and have true sandbox elements to make it a real space game and not a Pinocchio.

That has roles/jobs/etc manifesting from emergent game play instead of shoe-horned in by the dev's designers.

That lets you build your ship using concrete specific things instead of randomness to get some silly augments.

That encompasses a true physics engine and make you have to think about your next move instead of being coddled by code.

That has space whales, reavers, life on planets, and the ability to get out of your gal durned seat!

If only there was such a game...

I'd buy it!

This is by the way really a fun game. Lacks a ton of stuff ED has bit it has its own pros, and for a one-man game looks surprisingly good. :)

Well it doesn't per se lack it, it's just rough around the edges. But the freeform nature that OP looks for is there, along with proper offline/online modes and a lot of freedom.

Yeah, Evochron is a much better game than ED altogether. Very immersive, but obviously not as pretty. But if game-play is what your after (aren't we all), then Evochron is a very good shout.

I like ED, if a shooter in space is what your after, then you shouldn't look further than ED. But unfortunately, its not what many players want. Although, when Infinity comes out, that will be a better shooter in space (possibly). I backed both, but wish ED would have been more. But dinosaurs destroy everything, ED included (probably)..

ED a shooter in space? Sounds like you haven't tried Freelancer.

Ah well! It's a shame you're not enjoying Elite.

Still, there are plenty of other space games out there, and plenty in the process of being made: Kerbal Space Program, Eve Online, FTL, Call of Duty Infinite Warfare, Star Citizen, Infinity Battlescape


And one spacegame made by a visionary, who can actually plan out the development of his game and bring it in on budget and on time...

Well, we're giving it a good old stab.

OP - not sure you will never get all of that in one game. Seems like a bit of a pipe dream... so, erm... maybe Star Citizen one day... possibly.... at least, i seem to recall them taking calls for space whales seriously and actually modelling one. Not sure that was prudent spending of backers money, but hey, if the backers are happy with that.

Anyway, i wish you well in your quest, but as others have noted, you might have to make it yourself.
