Creo que te confundes en este punto. La poblacion de jugadores en Elite de manera concurrencial (es decir jugando a la vez en un momento dado) ha ido aumentando y en estos momentos esta estimada en alrededor de los 18,000 - 22,000 (Se ven entre 5,000-6,000 solo en Steam, y se estima que Steam representa apenas alrededor de entre un tercio y un cuarto de las ventas totales en estos momentos).
Esto pondria a Elite teoricamente en el top 20 de mas jugados de Steam, compitiendo en actividad concurrencial con juegos tales como War Thunder, DayZ, H1Z1 etc.
Nada mal para un juego nicho en una tematica (space sims) que lleva muerta mas de 10-15 años, y que sin embargo lleva vendidas unas 800,000 unidades.

It was "limited duration" during beta too, and they re-issue it, so I guess they'll do it before every release. Got mine for 50€, given the current price jump next one will probably be 300€, go figure.
Well, having played Elite since ZX Spectrum days (and the sequels), I thought it worth while keeping up to date with it. FD have now got 120 of my hard earned pounds. Should help them get things moving!
I also coughed up the $180 for lifetime pass. Only been playing for around 3 weeks but having a ton of fun. At least I had enough in paypal credit and 6 months to pay it off with no interest. Now to hope the fact I originally bought the game on steam is a smooth transition.
A modo Open?, me cruzo pocos ciertamente..., pero realmente, con lo grande q es ED (espacio) ahora esas madrigueras (planetas) acogerán muchos pilotos, así q si ya es difícil encontrar una buena goodfight..., pues esto lo hará un pelin más complicado, en mi humilde opinión...
Pd: ya saldrá alguno para decirme q si lo único q busco es pvp es q no he entendido nada y bla bla bla .... Xdddd

<chortles> You Alphas get PLEP, we commoners only get SLEP - so it goes!
I also bought the expansion pass...
...back during the Kickstarter!
As above. I'm happy we have the game. The expansion is a bonus. One that we pay for but the game continues.
Me too. I took the plunge back when they first offered it and I'm glad I did as the gamble paid off.
Now I can just sit back and enjoy whatever they decide to do with the game.
I don't know, so that's why I haven't answered. I suspect that FD might have some incentive to keep the pressure on for a bit. "Buy now while you still can!" That sort of thing.
I hope they give it a good month at least so that it can be fit into most people's financial schedules.

Feel for you Commander, our GB Pound is unbelievably strong at the moment. It is destroying out international trade and exports, because anyone outside the UK finds our products just toooooooo expensive when converted into their own currency. If the pound does not weaken soon, then I think FD (along with my own business) is going to find trading outside of the UK a complete "no go"!

Fly safe! And do support FD if you can justify the cost!
If the game is able to keep entertaining me I'll buy all the extensions separately.
At the end of the day it means I out-supported all of you lot. And now I'm going to out-smug you guys as well.
You got smugged!

lol, no, yo estoy contigo, el pvp es de lo mejor, pero creo que Powerplay ha hecho que nos desperdiguemos mas aun. Pasate por l zona de Lave que parece que Code y otros se han vuelto a sus zonas originales.
I too have jumped on to the life time pass boat.
I missed out on the crowdfund backing, and the initial beta backing..
Only found out about this in march, waited a few weeks, did research and bought it- love it!
As a long time player of WoW i`m a bit jaded after 10 years of it, so Elite can take my cash!
Seeing as i'm like a lot of other gamers, and spend time playing other stuff as well as our favourites, i may as well say here is my cash.
And i`ll be set up for as long as you keep making stuff... If WoW had this 10 years ago i'd have saved a fortune!
Fly safe, fly FREE for LIFE!

As I understand it, no, if you buy it from an existing account, you don't get another copy. However, it looks like you can buy it as a new player without getting the discount for being an existing player.
+rep to you sir because i can and you won't show !
