Hello.
I joined the forum in 2006 and my first post was how I envisioned Elite IV...
"I think, that Elite IV should have (in comparison with FFE):
Rampaging around planets outside the ship would be cool, but, I suppose, it' s isn' t essential part of Frontier."
Well, it seems I got what I wanted.
1. improved GFX,
2. fully operational fighter launcher device (I did envision it differently tho' as a bay for regular small ships like eagle or sidewinder),
3. customized ships - God, I've spent loads of cash on those...
4. multiplayer... Nuff said.
I even got what I didn't expect - riding on the planets (in SRV)...
I just thought I'll share. Cheers.

Collection of Ideas for Elite 4
Seems to be a hard to realise, but really - similar to Kha'aks from X2/X3. Hmm... But if the "collective of ships" "have a mind" (but not "alone ship") - how pilot can drive this entity? The condition "Pilot killed" happend when critical amount of "bioships" will knocked out? Idea is good... but...

"I think, that Elite IV should have (in comparison with FFE):
- improved GFX,
- fixed ships bugs (i.e Hawk, that should have 13 tonnes of capacity instead of 7 without a drive - check yourself: 5 tonnes hull, 18 fully laden and... 7 tonnes capacity!! Something' s obvious wrong here! It' s common, for example panther clipper, kestrel and lots of other ships - please, mr Braben, confirm that!),
- fully operational fighter launcher device (let' s say - taking into panther some falcon airfighters and launching them, when nessesery - controlled by computer - so good fun with customizing your small fleet, ahhh!),
- customize viev of ships (i.e markings, colours, etc.),
- and, saint grail - multiplayer.
