Doesn't look that black to me.
If you want to see pitch black I suggest you visit the galaxy's outer rim, where stars aren't as dense.

Alternatively, maybe your monitor's not hooked up correctly:

Posting pictures with "long" exposure times and using high sensitivity sensors doesn't really help, but they look beautiful.
Btw: the brightness of the sky in ED is affected by the distance to the main star. Flying a few thousand ls away from the main star and the sky gets darker and more stars become visible.
It will be interesting to see how the new lighting system in chapter 4 is going to look like and affect the sky.
What worries me is that the "space clouds" are even more prominent in the new lighting model to be released in Q4 (as we saw in the recent live broadcast on YouTube). I sure hope that was unintended and that they plan to deepen the blackness of space.It's an in-game 'effect'... I just think it ought to be removed by Frontier if it's even possible.
....As to why the clouds bother some, I'm guessing that if you play in a well-lit room you won't notice them, but if you're like me and play in a darkened room, the clouds are quite visible. I try to not let it bother me....
“Our night sky is based on real data—it is not a hand-drawn backdrop as you might expect,” Braben said. “But the Milky Way and many of the stars around it are simply too bright and too uniform when compared to the real observable night sky.” Braben knew that the Milky Way appears somewhat dim when viewed from Earth because of obscuring space dust, but he was surprised by the quantity of dust and absorbent matter that the team needed to add to the game world in order to match the real-world perspective. “It appears as though our planet actually sits within that dust cloud, which is why the Milky Way appears so faint,” he said.
Also, a small note, guys: Earlier on, I thought of a better way to describe the effect.
It looks milky.
Hi Guys, how do i set the monitor's RGB, is it done on the monitor its self, or in the Pc setting
