Some people like me were perhaps saving some money up to get to the pledge tier they wanted. I would have preferred to wait a little longer, but my hand was forced a littler earlier than I had planned for..

Same with me. I originally dropped down what I could afford at the time when I first found out about Elite but always wanted to secure a place in the beta. With Christmas around the corner I was going to wait, until I read the newsletter

Hopefully a number of the new backers will also take the opportunity to help with the fiction project at:

Just one pound from each would significantly increase the chances of success.

In my case, I was following closely the project's progress during these months, and the last dev diary was the little push I needed to back the project.

The game looks awesome, I hope FD see what a nice update can do for the game.
