News A big thanks to you all!

[FrogsFriend]

Thanks for everything you've done for this fabulous game. Very much appreciated Michael [yesnod]

Good luck with Project-X and have fun

 

[who?]

Best of luck! We'll miss the enthusiasm, the knowledge of things astronomical, the beard (NOT the axe, that was scary).

Wish you well with the new project. Can we get involved as kickstarters or something? At least let us know.. wait. Did you say an IMPERIAL ship? On yer bike ya Imperial scum.

p.s. Can it be a coincidence that you're leaving just weeks/months before the Aliens arrive? I'm not saying you're turning brave Sir Robin... but are they that bad?

You have no idea

Best of luck with the new project. You'll be missed

 

[Habu2u]

MB fleeing to Colonia just as the Thargoids arrive!! That isn't a good sign for those of us in Red Shirts left behind!!

On a more serious note, THANKS SO MUCH for all your time and effort that's gone toward ED. You'll truly be missed!! Best Wishes for a continued wonderful career.

 

[Mephane]

Who is taking over as executive producer?

May the speculation commence!

Maybe it's the Mistress Of Minions?

 

[Tinman]

Thanks for your work over the years and best of luck too you and the new project!

 

[Baton]

You have no idea

Michael

Can we at least borrow The Axe?

 

[Jenner]

Can we at least borrow The Axe?

He's gotta have some extras....

 

[Ceeege]

Really sad to see you (and your brief replies!) moving on to pastures new but a huge thanks for your direction of ED over the years.

I did suspect something when I recently started seeing your doppelgänger on my lunchtime walks from my office in Bristol - him and a Jeremy Corbyn lookalike wearing a Corbyn t-shirt on election day (I jest not!)

Hmm.... Lave Radio has a theory that the "secret project" is Thomas the Tank Engine.... Michael Brookes moving to work on it makes that particular hype train look much more likely ;-)

Michael, do please keep writing your science fiction. I've been enjoying Sun Dragon and the Tau Ceti Misssion stories! And good luck with "the secret project" too.

 

[ZioYuri78]

o7 and thanks for the hard work.

 

[Mengy]

So long Micheal, and good luck on the new IP game. Your presence will certainly be missed in the Canonn thread.

 

[Robert Maynard]

All the very best on the new project, Michael!

.... and thanks for everything on Elite: Dangerous.

 

[Winterwalker]

Sadly not - but maybe soon

Michael

It wouldn't be the same without a soon ^TM in there somewhere!

The very best of grand good luck with your new project! o7

 

[Stewart_]

Good luck!

 

[Cheapchips]

So long and thanks for the Dev updates.

Good luck with the new game (can we have Dev updates for that too please!)

 

[Eruptor218]

We'll miss you Mr.Brooks Hope you can comeback sometime in the future

 

[Don Alvarez]

This has gotta be TJ's doing.

 

[EidLeWeise]

I think the most important question Mike is will we still be seeing you at Lavecon?
