Shame they took down the running total

on the Elite: Dangerous page.

I quite liked to use it as a gauge of how well the game is doing.

The numbers are probably available on your backer's app (though whether they're still updated, I know not).

It definitely shows on the backer's page. Currently £2,383,667 showing now. As Cody said though - no idea if that is current.

Ahh, mine says £2,383,802 so I will take that as a sign it is current!

Thanks!

Lol this isnt Star Citizen

Yeah - I too wished it was still there. I tended to check that page regularly just to see how the funding spikes. I would have thought they would have retained it because it would help the page hits.

There is enough space on the home page for to put back it

Do we know why it was taken down?

I kinda liked checking it in a strange non-accountant type of way :S

One of the devs bought a ship in Star Citizen with funding money. No point having a counter that doesn't count anything.

I also quite liked watching it sad I know. I suppose it no longer very relevant now that the game is actually being made.

Must admit I havent been to the Frontier website half as much now that it has gone as I get all of my updates via the newsletters otherwise.

The counter was nice to look at but wouldn't mind seeing one that shows us the number of Alpha, First and Second Beta backers they have?

While you can work out the number from the kickstarter page thats over a year old now.

Fromhell · Mar 19, 2014

A counter without stretchgoals is pretty useless anyway
