User’s Guide- Elite: Dangerous Web App

All done :)!

I was also under the impression that international delivery for physical rewards separate from the game was 30 pounds. So if I get another 15 quid's worth of rewards, that would be great
 
Same.

I'll get some clarification here, I have 15 pounds left over as well as it did not add £15 to the add on reward for international postage as per the KS FAQ.

Lets see how we go.

Now that most things are paid for, I'll add some more to the pledge to get some more goodies but yes I will find out re that £15. :)

Yes nice app - fantastic to be able to see my pledge made 'official' :D

I also see that 4 people on alpha-test level on KS have already upped their pledges to DDF.

It would be nice if the app give a new running total of pledges and backers!
 
Hmmm, not had my email - sent one into the address given.

As a launch party pledger, I won't be happy if my Commander name is taken already...
 
I don't understand this. Previously I was told that it would be £15 for shipping the game box, and another £15 for shipping (multiple) extras.

(I assumed this was because the extras were to ship in 2013, and the game in 2014).

I added £30 for shipping to my Kickstarter pledge - does your message above mean I can spend another £15 on a cool extra? :S

Yes it does :) I was only charged £15 for a crapload of goodies. I had £30 set aside for the Premium Box + goodies, but they only ended up charging me £15 total.

Just got my email and all updated. I used my real name for the NPC it will be nice to be immortalised! I won't say my commander name in case an earlier pledger fancies it. :p
...

I did this too! Real name for NPC and real name for commander name - I've always used my real name for as long as I've played Elite/Frontier because that was me flying that Cobra MKIII! :D

I just hope my NPC counterpart ends up just wanting safe passage on a ship rather being on the sharp end of an assassination mission or some such! :eek:

Just waiting/hoping for approval now!
 
Do we actually know whether the NPC name will be used for just one specific NPC like some seem to have jumped to assume, or is it going to be seeded into the random name generator that is used to make generic names for any number of NPC's? Judging from the wording of the description it would be the latter since it mentions 'random naming database', but I suppose it's sort of ambiguous. There's only one field, but I assume it takes both a first name and last name, as that was the form for all the generated names in FE2/FFE?
 
I take it this app is the reason the forums are taking forever to load a page!

Have my mail set it up and was so tempted to buy the cut away Anaconda until I seen the price!

Im getting this checked out as several of us have money left over.

It is clear from the FAQ that add ons also attract £15 pounds postage. I have requested clarification and I am sure we will get a response soon.
 
Good job the web app is really cool, all information is clearly displayed. I will perhaps buy some other stuff :)

I mentioned this in the Kickstarter Comments, and Michael has confirmed that they will look into this.
 
Well, why restrict it to NPC ? I'd like to have the option to choose Male or Female for my PC as well (rember there is not even a possibility to tell FD your gender).

You will decide on your gender when you're designing the look of your avatar in-game.
 
All done. Registered my real name. Always played as myself in the past with Elite, why change now. Commander Cycloptik just doesn't have the same ring to it. :D
 
Where's my email?

Still no sign of my confirmation email....

I've one friend who got his email 7 hours ago. I'm going to be very annoyed if my commander name is gone.

Aha! Found my email buried deep in my second level spam folder... Derp!

Is there going to be an option to specify the size of the T-shirt we get in the premium box?

I'll look into this when I get back into the office on Monday. I imagine we will be able to implement this though.

Hi Ashley,
If I submit a Commander Name now and then decide I wanted something different, will I be able to change it at some point?

Also does the name need to be a specific length or number of words (would First Middle Last work)?

Thanks!

Once you submit a character name and it is approved you're locked in then, so make sure to take your time choosing it. I believe multiple words for your name is perfectly acceptable.

I don't understand this. Previously I was told that it would be £15 for shipping the game box, and another £15 for shipping (multiple) extras.

(I assumed this was because the extras were to ship in 2013, and the game in 2014).

I believe this means you have an additional £15 to spend on extras, but I'll make sure to clarify this when I get in on Monday.

Is the e-mails still going out ? I didn't receive one (I looked in the spam folder and donated £115 via pay pal).

The emails are getting sent out in small batches to help server load, this means that you may not get yours until tomorrow or even Sunday. If you still haven't received it by Monday though let me know.

For Commander's name: Would an ICAO tactical call sign be appropriate? I've used the same for the last 10 years till retirement and would like to "immortalize" it.

:cool:

This should be ok, the best thing to do would be to just submit it and find out!

I take it this app is the reason the forums are taking forever to load a page!

Yes it is!
