I'm not sure if my timing of the purchase of this game sucks but I bought it a few days ago and to be honest have probably spent more time having to play the tutorials and waiting for the three hour long updates to download than I have actually carving a career for myself in game. Its been at least one a day so far, maintenance and other game updates but as there is no offline mode to the game (other than the training missions) then you are pretty much spending most of your free game time waiting...and waiting...and waiting. I appreciate that maintenance and updating games has to happen but as I'm new to the game can anyone tell me if it's just my bad luck or is it a regular occurrence to be kicked off the on-line version. All these updates are sucking the enjoyment out of Elite Dangerous for me.
