Is there a reason?

Maybe they have nothing to add to what was already said? Not trying to be rude but I can't think of anything they haven't said. Is there something specific PS4 players are expecting to hear more about?

EDIT: Ok AcidBurn. That's something I haven't seen and is specific. Good answer even if you did pull a ninja.;)

Xbox One X has a nice announcement today confirming 4k day one launch patch for ED. Some of us have been asking about Pro support for a while now as an example:

Will Elite Dangerous for PS4™ work on PS4™Pro?
Yes, we plan on supporting the PS4™Pro with Elite Dangerous.

Will full 4K be supported for Elite Dangerous on the PS4™Pro?
Elite Dangerous will feature enhanced performance on PS4™Pro. We’ll have more to information about this closer to release.
 
How many more days does E3 run for?

do you really think that FD are going to shoot all of their arrows on day one and then sit around drinking beer for the rest of the show?

I still have petals on my flower, just in case.

I love FDev!
I love FDev not.

I.......
 
to be honest we are on the home straight, we can see the finish line and the all of sudden the the engine blows and we end up inches from winning. and also i think FDev are using smoke and mirrors to distract the audience while they take there sweet time making the anaconda appear
 
Yes, PS4 will support the use of a joy stick! PROVIDING it's a HOTAS t-flight 4 and no other.

Yeah but, there's this new Elite Dangerous exclusive Thrustmaster that's been teased... Hopefully we know more about that soon.

How about a single arrow - just one! One would be nice. I think this is the way of the future now though isn't it - releasing small incremental updates at a time model means dribbling information and updates. Yesterday was the Thargoids? What today - what tomorrow, What the hammer? what the chain,
In what furnace was thy brain? What the anvil? what dread grasp, Dare its deadly terrors clasp! - sorry i digress...

i would prefer a damp squib on target, over an arrow that doesn't even get 2 inches and hits the ground

Digital downloads start on the 25th... don't they? surely FD Marketeers should have given a bit more details for PS4 players before that time!
 
I'd be happy with a Dev just telling us to keep an eye on e3 with a knowing wink! Wouldn't give anything away and would chill us all out! 😎

we are going to end up like those conspiracy nuts, sitting there rocking in tinfoil and writing weird theories on our cell walls waiting for that smoking gun so we can finally say we told everyone so lol

I agree. A one liner in a running order with 'if we have time' would at least acknowledge that Frontier are on track with everything that they have been saying to date.

E3 - The biggest gameshow of the year (so far) is currently underway with a primary focus on console gaming.
Just two weeks out from launch, there isn't a better time to at least recap / re-confirm everything that we know.

I understand why it might be difficult to play in open or private, requiring the hardware hooking up to the BGS backend with all the associated user authentication needed by both Sony and Frontier. I would guess that it would also need a certified console client and possibly some of the changes that are coming with the deployment of 2.3.10 (hence the associated timing) but can you tell us what you are trying to do and, if possible, why you haven't been able to show more than you have (in PR friendly terms so you don't upset anyone etc).

Please bring us along on your journey. You have a passionate core of PS4 gamers on this forum who want nothing more than for you to succeed.

As a suggestion, whilst you have the E3 focus of gamers across the world, you could run a short Elite livestream with Ed / second host taking turns to talk through PS4 details whilst playing the training missions as a backdrop.

It doesn't have to be earth shattering in any reveal. Just confirmation of what is already out there, answering some of the questions that have arisen since the FAQ was last published (e.g. differences between ps4 & pro, trophy list, starting locations, what add-ons the frontier store will support for PS4, differences between the various pre-order deals....)

I appreciate that the focus of the wider Elite community is on what is happening with 2.4 but you currently have the eyes of a lot of console gamers at the moment. Having tuned into both the Sony and both Elite: Dangerous streams this week, I am surprised that there wasn't at least some acknowledgement of the PS4 deployment which is less than two weeks away, even the 4k patch for Xbox One X got mentioned in despatches.

FDev, pretty please...
