I think if they were not releasing it today that they would have said so by now.
I hard of these elaborate pizza scams before..
Gangs of criminals start a kickstarter campaign to fund the creation of remakes of much loved computer games, often they kidnap respected and recognised giants of the programming community against their will to masquerade them as their front man to their deceit. By maintaining the hype behind their false products they gather more and more funds, but their main goal is FREE PIZZA.
I do not understand why people are getting so impatient, maybe it's over excitement, about when it will be released. For the majority of the alpha and beta phase frontier dropped the game late in the day. Sometimes just before midnight. The other important thing is the first release tends to have a few problems, so if it is released tonight there is no guarantee you'll be able to play it. So if it doesn't appear before your bedtime, take a breath, have a sleep and play it tomorrow.

Yeah, id play it even if it was line graphics like when I played the original elite 30 years ago on my acorn electron lolIt's because of all the videos shown thus far, the beta looks functionally complete, and from a few texture issues aside, nothing game breaking, people want to jump into it, especially since THIS patch out of all others is a complete game changer, it changes the face of ED and makes the universe that is already wide, finally have depth, Especially for Explorers who have felt neglected for SO long. The addition of SRVs and hopefully new scanners to use, Exploration will finally get the depth it deserves. Hence the impatience, if Fdev is holding back due to a few texture issues, people are saying, "heck with the texture issues, I'll play it with crappy textures if I can play it now, we can fix those later."
People just want to get into it. And to be honest I can't really blame them.

Why can't we Mod Elite, this would something I would like to see, Elite Dangerous with Planetary Landings with a wireframe mod.
The closest has to be the wireframe skin...Is that even available anymore?
I think that was a backers only skin.. or possibly a limited offer?
why have FD relabeled the game in the launcher to Elite Dangerous (32bit) ???? thats hardly neeeded as all 64bit machines can run ED irregardless of it being 32bit or not! seems an unessecary name change to me. and anyone who has horizons by no knows the 64bit spec or gets a free refund ...
UNLESS! core ed is also going to 64bit?
Frontier Are you serious?
First you said Horizons Beta coming on 24th November.
On 24th November we wait all the day and you said we'll try to do our best to provide it on 24th and then: OK, we can't provide it, we need more time... I accept that, no problem for me
Waiting 7 days it's ok no problem, i've think they'll be really READY.
Today we wait all the day, without any informations, it's 21h here and we can only begin to download that's cool...
4 days of downloading!!! I've 60 Mb vDSl!!! And i've 4 days to download??? Are you really serious when you selling a Béta access?
You haven't seen how many people had bough this béta access to prevent that kind of problem?
hehe, stay cool...the download and the installation i rdy but![]()
what i expect...no START available in MainMenue...it's Red and its 23:38 pm on my side :/
I'm at a loss, not sure what to do (if anything).
So I had the same error message earlier on when attempting to install Horizons Beta. Eventually I gave up and started upgrading some of the other modules that were working 64bit Ships Beta 1.5 amongst a few others.
So I finally upgrade all but Horizons Beta. when I go back to it, this time it just says 'PLAY' instead of 'INSTALL' and I'm wondering??
So I press play and nothing happens, tried a few times over the last hour or so. Any advice guys? anyone experiencing this with the PLAY not responding? I would have thought it would have an install icon again.
Grateful for your thoughts,
Thanks
