I probably won't have the cash for the lifetime pass until Christmas. Will it still be available by then?
Yes, but any content specific to Elite Dangerous: Horizons won't be available. So iif you fly onto a planet surface then they won't be able to follow.

Soooo... Let me see if I've got this right... "existing Elite Dangerous players will receive a £10 loyalty discount"... "The expansion will include all Elite: Dangerous content released to date"... So existing players will have ended up paying a total of £70 for the base game and the horizons expansion... Whereas any newcomes just pay £40 and will have the lot?... How is that a "loyalty reward for existing players" when existing players will have ended up paying more?... Even if you gave existing customers the expansion for free, that would only make it an equal cost for the same amount of content for new players and existing players, so there would technically still be no "loyalty reward" for existing customers other than the cobra.
Am I understanding this right? Have I missed something?...
Dont get me wrong, Im all for buying expansions, especially when the expansion is nigh on a game in itself like horizons is. But the numbers dont add up to existing players being rewarded, unless Ive missed something.
Well, the thing I want to do the most with Horizions is fly around in the clouds of a Gas Giant, that would be so amazing!!!! X3
My perspective is that buying all expansions since I bought the game will cost me a couple of nights out. Nights out I won't have if the money go to this obnoxious pretence of loyalty when it's nothing short of scam.
Oh, I got perspective enough, buddy. I just value my money more than most people willing to sink 400£ on a freaking incomplete game and promises.
I personally am not interested in PL
the Cobra Mk4 was the only thing I didn't know about and is the only surprise to come out of this.
Perhaps, but
a) I don't touch WoW or any other subscription game
b) It may not be 'that much' to you, but it's a couple of weeks food budget for me
The first place i will be heading is Valles Marineris.
The wife and i now shop at Lidls and save enough for me to lavish myself with treats! she gets to watch me spend it![]()
Maybe - but Mars has an atmosphere so isn't landable in Elite Dangerous: Horizons.

Come come old chap, I'm sure every person values their own money in their own way. Value is in the eye of the beholder, surely?
As for ED being incomplete I'd posit that it has always been "incomplete" and will continue to be so for a few more years.
