First Impressions

Oh My God ! Well done devs, you have managed to recreate the feel of Elite and the spirit of Elite whilst totally bringing it back up to date !
I cannot believe the job that has been done so far in such a short period.
If it keeps up like this then we'll have the game that all of us old Elite players have been lusting for for many years.
I did, however, just die whilst in station and docked. I was browsing the trading menu and suddenly "Shields offline .... Eject Eject Eject ..... Boom" - a bit weird but hey ho

Yep it certainly is on a track to be "The" game of this decade for many of us on so many fronts.

Glad you like it.

Stations are the most buggy bit for me too...

I have to agree, I am so impressed, well done to the devs!

I finally sorted my X52 bindings out this morning to a point where I am really happy with them so I stepped in to multiplayer for the first time and WOW! It is so good and so scary and so confusing! Exactly what I was hoping for.

It's only a small step but I managed to buy some goods, exit, enter again (to check my very rusty docking skills), exit again, then supercruise to within 11 km of another, pretty orange planet. Now I just need to find the orbiting space station, dock and sell my goods, hopefully for a profit.

It has probably been well over 30 years since I last made a similar trip in Elite and it's bloody good to be back

OK - I have just made my first 2 successful trading trips.
First one was an 8 credit profit - small but filled me with enormous joy.
Second was 220 profit.
So I'm in and doing what I love to do.
Thanks David and Frontier in general - this is fabulous !
Now - off to the gym

By supporting this project6 months ago I did not expect that it will be looked so good. I had in memory Frontier FE but this now is.........great.

Thank You very much Frintier, David, Michael.
