That got your attention didn't it.

Can people please stop posting with such titles?

As yet it's NOT actually a game YET, It's a piece of software in development, in which we are lucky enough to be part of the dream (mine serpently) of Elite as we imagined it in the 80's.

I get ranty at issues, but go away, have a cuppa, or a wine, or "Jamesons", calm down, come back, and if it's a bug then report it.

I don't get to play/test for many hours a week, but I have reported lots of issues, even if they're known, so FD get a scope of how big the issue is. I post vids for them to see the issues.

I leave it for a couple of days then get the itch to be back.

As for a comment seen about this being nowhere finished so close to release date... do you actually know what's on the servers at FD offices in the way of bug fixes? and what they've got lined up for the next patch? how many people are working on them and how many hours they're working?

I've seen it go from PB to what it is now, and MANY things have been fixed in fantastically short time, and many updates applied.

FD have stated that the game will be on-going development after release, with new features opened as storylines unfold, such as planetary landings.

Yes we could do with more from them by the way of news, However, as I say at work... I can update you every 15 minutes, but the updates will consist of in the last 15 mins I spent 7 updating you, 4 remembering what it was I was doing before updating you and 4 minutes working, OR leave me to sort it.

Regardless I'm happy (or will be when I get my new Nvidia)

Thanks FD for putting my dream in production.

My thoughts only, but I've had a read of the forums again for the first time in a few days, and all I see is rants, as well as some properly laid out posts about peoples thoughts, preferences and what they think is right/wrong with the "game"
 
I hear ya...but the folks who make those posts won't. Sorry, Commander, haters gonna hate.
 
I agree that these posts are a real pain to read but this will happen more and more as release gets closer and the masses join us.

However on your point that this is not yet a game (As yet it's NOT actually a game YET)... I very much disagree.

Although i considered myself a beta tester at first i have become totally hooked into elite and have stopped playing all other games entirely.

Looking at my stats i was pretty surprised to find i have played for nearly 300 hours now and feel i'am still learning.

Compared to many games i have played over the last few years this is way more fun, complex and addictive ;)
