Anybody else not worried?

The previous Elite game: 1995
The current Elite game: 2014

And you're all losing your minds because you have to wait for a big update. Did any of you play any previous space sim series where what you bought was what you got? How did you all survive waiting through the era of sequels rather than patches?

The reactions on this forum about the 2020 update are frankly childlike. Come now.

This is tame. Wait till we find out if space legs or atmos is coming first, it'll be like a religious schism.

No, I AM worried. I already lost my mind. Really, don't you see the doom? It's at least 9000 millidooms...

Not worried. If ED was a good game last week it probably still is this week. When deciding to play, I don't take into account whether it'll be better next year.

The child inside me made me buy the game.

I'm cool. They've said they're going to release new Stuff(tm) every 3-4 months, and there's a big update coming later. I'm also perfectly fine with them holding their cards close to their chest at this stage.

I am not worried about the game, I am worried I wont be playing it in 2 years time.

I dont think its the time that bothers most people. I think its more so Fdev not telling us anything about it. Though the same comment could be applied.

Not quite, I'm reading just above 750 millidooms.

Engineers already happened. So no worries. Only butthurt.

Calling people childlike is childlike. Stick that in your infinite regression pipe and smoke it

On a serious note, I'm much more worried that we are now in MARCH and yet to get a 3.3.1 bug fix update than I am about anything happening in 2020.

Lol, wait til they find out neither Legs or Atmo is coming.

Rat Catcher · Mar 7, 2019

I'm not bothered either way, over 1000 hours of play - the game owes me nothing - if we get new QoL updates and the hinted CG changes that's fine. If I can't play next year for any reason that is fine too, I've had a great time for mere pennies per hour played

ED is a great game, but only 1 of the games I play, if it gets a bit 'dry' then taking a break doing something else works. For those who are particularly passionate over this game - I guess I'm a heretic

Stealthie · Mar 7, 2019

I'm worried about Brexit, war in Asia and the insidious threat of political correctness.

I'm critical of games which fail to live up to their promises.

You need to engineer a thicker cushion for your pilots seat.

OMG, I'll just have to play Elite as an actual space game then. Like, with spaceships.

Who'd have thought...

I am worried because in 1995 we had the Turner class ship from Argent Aerodynamics Amalgamated Inc, but it's now 2019 and we still don't have it in Elite Dangerous.

Not worry at all.

Wish we had more details on what they are work on an a more detail plan on what the small updates will contain, I think most of the community would be happy if they focus on bugs fixes and adding new stuff for us to find. I would like to think some of the stuff delayed over the last year will be added to the game, powerplay changes and fixes, ice planets, carriers will all be things that will be worked on by the smaller team.

I hope we will get some more announcements soon

Taimaru · Mar 7, 2019

I'm not worried about the game. I love the game as it is and I don't see myself losing interest.
I'm not worried about having to wait until the big update. I will still be playing ED when the big update arrives.
I'm not worried about player retention. There will still be many people playing but some of the players may have changed.
I'm not worried about Frontier's communication. I am happy to wait until Frontier think it's right to tell us more.
I'm not worried about what the next big update or the smaller ones will be. I have been happy with all of the updates so far.
