LOL @ "The lore behind Elite is quite massive."
Never played any TES games then, I take it. OR the original Elite, for which there is ZERO "lore." Any "lore" in ED is made up as they go along. LMAO <sigh>
 
I can't help but chuckle when people talk about "lore" and ED together LMAO. Yeah. sure. "Lore."
You mean haphazardly shoehorned into the system to "create gameplay."? That?
"Lore" in ED. LMAO wow. Okay. ... No TES players here then? Cuz THAT is lore.
This game? "Lore?" C'mon.
We're creating lore as we play. This universe has no actual history. Nothing set and said before players got in.

There are books written about it
And there is the Codex. Look it up, right panel > Codex > knowledge base > Empire, Alliance, Federation, Individuals
Basically the entire section of knowledge base makes up for a good reading. Sure, only if one wants to educate themselves

All the lore set up since the original game was released in 1984, that's the lore of Elite. If you don't like, and I don't normally suggest this but it seems fitting here, go and play another game. Everything you are complaining about is what Elite is and always has been, this information was available before you purchased the game so you could have read up on it, you don't get to come here and demand FDEV change 50+ years of backstory just to suit you!

I mean this is like buying a game in the Battlefield series and then complaining because you don't want to be a member of the military!
 
"It's all written down ..." ....
Where?
Perhaps in the part of the Codex that is currently SO bugged out it's not even accessible?
 
Now I am starting to get genuinely interested. According to the other "thread" you hate the combat system, according to this thread you despise the lore and systems that control players, so, why are you even here?
 
The solution has been given several times now.

MULTICREW.

The permit lock only prevents a PILOT from jumping in, not a passenger (though I've noticed that you can't book an Apex shuttle if you lack the permit). So you need to scrounge a lift from a player with the permit.

Presumably Odyssey "physical multicrew" would let you disembark in the locked system?

I get the feeling they're not a new player but a returnee... and they are starting to remember why they left in the first place 😂
 
The permit lock system has to work as it does, because being able to sneak into systems such as Polaris and the Col-70 systems which we assume are blocked off for future story reasons would just reveal empty systems when these should be full of Thargoids (or whatever else).
 
Sounds like you've never SEEN the original, let alone played it.

Yeah. "Books" written about it .. um, ... no. Where? Link me one? LMAO ... OH WAIT!! Fan fiction? Right. mk.
and NO!
The original Elite had ZERO lore. It was what it was, and THAT IS IT!!!
You kids may fantasize about some fantastical realm where Elite has always had this incredible "Lore."
NOP!!
100% random sci-fi action, originally. Not even in the Milky Way, as we now have.
LMAO anyone saying this sort of has NEVER played the original. EVER!! ... Which I personally did, in the 90s. Tho I preferred the Wing Commander games.
..
ANY alleged "lore" comes from the modern re-do. NOT from the original. Stop trying to justify that way. It's idiotic. LMAO

The original Elite came with The Dark Wheel novella. I really liked it and it really helped to set the mood on.
However, if that means ZERO lore for you... so be it 🤷‍♂️

You know this guy right?


And these books right?

 
@veronica has never played the original Elite, as there is LITERALLY zero lore. 100% none. 100% game. ZERO lore or plot or anything else. It literally wouldn't fit in RAM.
ANY lore we now have is 100% made up since the inception and launch of ED.
GOOD GRIEF!! Have you ever actually PLAYED Elite original? ... If you think there's lore there, then you clearly haven't. ZERO plot. ZERO identity. 100% general trade and random missions. With no rhyme or reason. ZERO LORE!!
People claiming there's "lore" from the original have clearly never played it and are fantasizing about "the old days of video games" which they themelves never actually experienced.
386DX66. Elite existed before that.
BBC Micro .... LMAO good luck finding "lore" in that one. THE original. ... NOPE!!
ALL "lore" is 100% Frontier modern game play.

So you weren't even born when the original ELITE was published. :ROFLMAO:

Star Citizen is that way:

LMAO so some fanboy(s) wrote some books? WOO HOO.
ZERO official. NOT canon. ZERO relevance to the original Elite ...
yeah ... nice try, but FAIL
