I didn't play Elite. I didn't play Frontier or Encounters. December 16th was the first time I ever played an Elite game. I've played every day since. I know there are some bugs, I've been bitten by some of them. I understand that this is a project that maybe was released a bit too early and maybe shouldn't have been. Doesn't really matter. Some of the mechanics inherent within the game stop me from flying in the X-Wing style that I'm accustomed to. Doesn't really matter, I relearned.
I've crashed ships because I didn't know what I was doing. I've had to start from a Sidewinder again because I flew into a space station shortly after thinking I'd nailed the controls. I can't count how many times I've been dumped out of SC because I got too close to a star scooping fuel. Doesn't matter, I learned how to do things better each time afterwards. I've been shot all to hell by NPCs because I suck at combat and my guns ran too hot or stopped working. Doesn't matter, I learned a lesson or two.
Just posting as one of those largely silent majority you hear about. We're still here, plugging away quietly. That's all really, I expect this'll drop off the front page pretty quickly with all the blooblooing going on.
