Elite Dangerous Odyssey Gameplay Trailer, plus it (and Deluxe Alpha) now available for pre-order on Steam & FrontierStore

[Mogen Teras]

Trying to buy it on Frontier website, get an error saying "Required options are not selected", but there are no options to select...

Lmao Frontier are so incompetent they can't even open preorders without breaking something

 

[Andro]

its probably just downloading some kind of ingame marker to indicate it's tied to your account and game client. Don't go thinking you magically got the expansion early.

It's 5.8GB, not quite expansion-level, but not just a marker, I'd say...

 

[Mogen Teras]

Damn, that's Q2! Who would've guessed.

Not us considering they promised Q1 2021, not Q2. So they basically lied. AGain.

 

[Azrel]

I got a 5gb download on steam after preordering the deluxe edition and now the launcher wont let me login to play lmao

 

[Speedcuffs]

Is it...
Is it DOOOOOM!
Yet?

For farts sake, this is just so FD, I'm trying to give them more money and adding the product to basket doesn't work...

Maybe you can access the alpha right away?...

They actually even said EARLY 2021. I would consider January as EARLY...

December.

Thats all I get on the launcher, I'm on steam and selecting Horizons or Base elite doesn't work.

April 21 is bordering on mid-2021. Even if you try to stretch it, they still lied.

Yep, we've been banned for buying it too fast.

COVID is very mean. Not only does it hospitalise and kill people, it indirectly causes lockdowns and production delays.

Feels bad man, I managed to log out of the launcher and get it to ask me to log in. After that, it won't log me in. Back to 2077 I guess.

Now the Alpha Deluxe version disappeared from the Frontier Store...

COVID is very mean. Not only does it hospitalise and kill people, it indirectly causes lockdowns and production delays.

Except they literally have stuck to their "early 2021/Q1 2021" timeframe for the entire duration of COVID. If they knew it would be delayed, they would have known a while ago already. Meaning they've purposefully not divulged the delay; ergo they LIED

PFFFT

This is FD we're talking about. I'm surprised it wasn't pushed into June-July.

 

[Sublime]

Early could technically mean any time in the first 4 months...
