News Announcement: Elite: Dangerous coming to Xbox One

There are plenty of mature, sensible gamers on xbox and ps4 who behave like sensible people.

Just as there are plenty of immature, self entitled 'Elitist' PC players out there too ...

You only have to look at these forums on a day to day basis to see that. I do find some people's idea of 'console players' somewhat disturbing ... In the end regardless of the platform there are plenty of douches around that's for sure.
 
Sure some Xbox gamers are casual, but that's doesn't mean to say that every Xbox gamer will behave like a total idiot. There are plenty of mature, sensible gamers on xbox and ps4 who behave like sensible people.

Not everyone who games on a console is an annoying, 12 year old troll.

Also plenty of people are using the wired 360 controller to play on their pc's and they say it works great.
Agreed +rep.

Well said, sir! :)
 
My last post on this thread, imo why this is bad news:-

a: The game was designed initially with consoles in mind, thus hamstringing the PC version from the off
b: The game (as good as it is) is going to get simpler and simpler as the weeks go by, until its at the level your typical Xbox user can play
c: 20+ years of faith and hope were wasted.. not to mention all the money that went on the kickstarter.
d: Frontier care little for true Elite fans
e: Frontier will bow down to any moaning and whining on the forums and alter the game (this has already happened but will be 10x worse when the Xboxers get here)

The game to different console will get more action OK!!

But how about the technical aspect of having the game on two different platforms?

Will there be the PC version only having higher GFX?

How about the plan the game had, to utilize a PC and not get "capped" by console :)
Does anyone know about this?

It just occured to me he is acting just like the people in the last CoD MP team I was in. I joined had a sniper set up had Stealth Gamer as gamertag, first com was word for word "get the f outa here you AC fanboy." I actually had to look up what AC was because I'd never heard that acronym, and then started laughing because a- it took more skill than CoD and b- niether game took as much skill or patince as SplinterCell:ChaosTheory or the Elite setting of SniperElite3(try quick scopeing there hehe). In short he's saying bassically because I prefer a diferent system(or game in previous example) I lack the skill/intelligence to play what he plays. Guess who draged their team to victory practicaly singlehanded.. me, not by quick scopeing but by playing smart and one guy agreeing to watch my back.

*shakes head in disappointment*

So the possibility of two different versions of the game hasn't occurred to you? Case in point; Team Fortress 2. Exact same games comes out on PC and consoles, not cross platform play (bear in mind, ED has NOT been confirmed as being cross-platform play yet), but its the PC version that gets all the cool updates and mods. Isn't it possible this might happen for Elite Dangerous as well?

Also your statement smacks of childish self entitlement, and PC gamer elitism (no pun intended). The more posts I read like this, the more they make me hope for for a separate Xbox server because honestly? I wouldn't want to play this game with people like you.

I'm getting tired of saying this, so it'll be for the last time. I get it - most "PC gamers" think all console gamers are mouthy teens who play like jerks. Guess what? PC gamers have this problem too! And console gamers also have decent people too. And this game most likely won't attract, or even register with the type of gamer everyone seems to be so afraid of.

So - relax. These people know what they're doing. I think your going to be quite safe in your little PC gaming ivory tower.

I have to say that this game looks epic in both scale and diversity ,This will indeed be a breathe of fresh air for us (mature players) on the console.

Hello friend. ;)
 
Xbox users unite! :p

Where do I sign?

FWIW: I'm very much looking forward to the XBox version because it is a fixed platform. If performance is bad, if it stutters etc., it's unquestionably on FD and not on me (e.g., finding the right divers, tweaking the graphics settings, killing other processes, etc.)
 
I'll probably buy Elite for the XB1 when it comes out, play it for a bit on the big screen and controller - and likely get annoyed with any achievment popups, friend notifications, gamerscore thingies etc, and breathe a sigh of relief that I can go back to a multi screened, HOTAS, head tracking, zero notification and socially silent PC :)

And who could blame you ?..,Lol but then again you could always turn off the achievment popups, friend notifications, gamerscore thingies etc and keep the big screen experience . :)
