Is the Mandalay in game now?

[Aaron T]

I do not have much time to be on tonight and likely tomorrow, so just asking so if it is available I can plan on getting in late tomorrow night or Tuesday for sure. Thank you.

Mandalay has been made available via the Arx store. This unlocks being able to deploy the single copy to any station/ carrier, and unlocks in-game purchase via credits.

Mandalay is currently not available purely for in game credits only (ie no Arx store purchase) that will happen in approximately 3 months time. Hopefully that answers the question, as 'in game right now' is a bit more vague than you might think.

Thank you, I went ahead and bought the basic version with ARX and love it.

But with the update I cannot click on many of the icons in my galaxy/system maps, and my jumps have reset to economy, a trip which is usually 3 jumps at about 30-40 LY per jump is 26 jumps, and my sound has static, but only in ED.

Good luck with your Mandalay, which is a beautiful ship to own and fly. When the servers aren't down or flaky, that is... Servers currently still giving me problems, barely worth playing until they increase capacity.

 

[Aaron T]

Maybe that is why I am having issues, I sure hope so.

Just to say: People with a LTP should have been able to buy Mandalay with credits imo.

I have LEP, and I don't have an issue with LEPers buying early access with ARX.
Would I have preferred FDev didn't go down this route? Of course, I'd much prefer if it got released and everyone had instant access with credits.
You can still buy with credits, but as you know you just need to wait a few months.
