It's obviously going to be a fully functioning glove box for all ships.
Then we can put our "virtual" pen and pad in them to remember where we have been...

I'm thinking it is going to be a paid expansion. They need cash to keep the dev team healthy and produce more. We should get a few core improvements too. People expecting magic changes will be disappointed.

Yes, planetary landings will be a paid expansion. We "all" know that. ;)

A paid expansion they could announce on GamesCon. ;)

This doesn't exclude them from doing other free updates to the core game at the same time, just like they have so far...and yes, also fixing bug as always.

Were you also a believer in the vertical slice theory? ;)

The Elite: Dangerous team is bigger than ever, and the majority are working on something secret for PC and Mac. It's not quite ready for the world just yet, but we'll be able to tell you more at Gamescom. Believe us: we can hardly wait.


you whiners have failed.

Really? Because there was an announcement of a secret announcement that no one knows about yet? Let's wait and see shall we. Not big on whining but I am not breaking out the champagne just yet

Remember, The newsletter said secret. Planetary landings, walking around ships, et al., are well known and not secret. ;)

Would be too soon I believe, although a basic implementation might be very possible.

I would like a big expansion package of new game assets to fill in the living and breathing Elite universe:

- True Imperial station designs.
- More kinds of npc military vessels.
- Npc vessels like shuttles, tugs, tankers, maintenace and repair veheicles etc.
- More types of space structures like gloomy Prison installations, military fortresses and HQ's, true shipyards with ships under construction, industrial complexes, Corporate HQ's, Mining installations, etc etc.
- And also new missions linked with these new assets.
- Some interesting internal and external variations on existing structures. Currently they are too samey.
- Some of the core systems of Factions and perhaps even powers should have unique visual aspects.

We need more life, more variation.

if not anaconda paint jobs then I would suspect walking around ship and station as the next useful feature needed to build onto the game. Planetary landing might seem like a good idea but it's just going to require so much handwavium to explain away for little benefit to gameplay. Walking around has much more potential.

Dear Frontier,

I know it's not Christmas yet, but this year I'd like all further updates to contain anything you like, with two conditions:


  • Fix the vast majority of bugs and glitches without making new ones.
  • Any new content not to make new ones either.

All the best for Xmas and the New Year,

Nagual.
