New Elite Game Extras Web Store
- Thread starter Retropolitan
- Start date
Its like how a pinball machine racks up a massive score to make you feel like its all good and exciting. But in reverse
Which is why you come here, to read all of these positive posts, made by all these positive people.
I don't even know why I still reply to posts like this. Anyway, if you think everyone who disagrees with you must be paid for it, you already made sure that people will disagree with you. I realise that this is quite comfortable for people who aren't capable of respecting others, the only question is why you feel the need to talk to us.
I had a quick browse of the store today, and I have to comment it seems to log you out very quickly. For example, log in to see what you own ticked off the lists of cosmetics, then browse a couple of ships to see what there is avaiable that you might otherwise have missed, by the time you get to the third ship, you seemingly own nothing, only to notice that the button in the top right now says log in again ;-/
One thing that really annoys me about this new forum is that if you write a great long diatribe of text and then decide that maybe, on reflection, it might be better if you didn't post it after all ... then even days later ... whenever you go back to that thread, your text is all still there in the reply box at the bottom, provocatively saying "go on, send me, you know you want to!". Anyhoo ... it seems the only way I can gid rid of it is to post something else instead - hence this.
Please ignore this post!

At least you realised - sometimes I don't notice it left at the top of my intended post....One thing that really annoys me about this new forum is that if you write a great long diatribe of text and then decide that maybe, on reflection, it might be better if you didn't post it after all ... then even days later ... whenever you go back to that thread, your text is all still there in the reply box at the bottom, provocatively saying "go on, send me, you know you want to!".

Use the Floppy Disk symbol in the lower left part of the buttons bar located above the text box, then Delete Draft, then reload the page.
-- like this but wireframe 
Yeah, same here for the most part. My in-game colour theme is red and black. I like the Red Pharaoh scheme where available, and would buy all of the Black Friday ones were it not for the rendering issues (which nobody else seems to notice
). Other than that though, I’m happy with basic Earth Red, Tactical Crimson and Tactical Graphite, so the Arx thing is pretty good for me from a purely selfish perspective. Still at odds with it conceptually/morally though.Most of the more expensive designs are much too garish for me. That said, I do like the recent Operator set for the Mamba. I wish that they made every scheme available for all ships, for those of us who like consistency. That and the Pharaoh ones are the only that would actually tempt me to spend any money under the new system.

Yeah, the Pharao set is great. Have it for the Krait and AspX, no regrets - imo it's one of the best packs ever released as it's so diverse. The Operator paints do indeed look nice - if/when I buy an Arx pack, I'll definitely get a couple of those (the FGS looks pretty neat with it also).Yeah, same here for the most part.

And I think I know what you mean regarding the Black Friday paints... it's those weird grey/brown marks no? - doesn't bother me too much though.
Put pharaoh gold on your asp. Now tell me thats not orange.

Yeah I mean it's orange and black. Strange choice of name for sure but suits a mining or SAR build pretty well.
The distinction probably would be clear to anyone who has to factor an international plane ticket ontop of the entry fee. In practice even with a good faith intention to take part as customary it’s a bit of an exclusive club.
Well I hope the store works. It's not like the game does...
It happened faster than I thought
Oh right ... when you said "special friends" I thought you meant that Lave Radio was like some cliquey club but what you actually meant was "UK residents". OK, I get it now.
