if your into VR you need to look at this. Elite with a system like this, i would jizz my pants.

they are basically using magic leap for hand tracking, and even Hotas tracking, so you can grab your hotas to fly, and press virtual buttons to do stuff in the cockpit.

Yeah good old leap motion, it would be very nice

And the utopia would be a lower price Xtal VR headset

At the end of the teaser video, those twin handles sending you into a hyperspace jump were directly from the Falcon in Star Wars.

I'm semi-retired. If I had this (and the motion chair) I'd probably just quit my part-time job and never leave the house ever again.

It's interesting... But what do you do after you customize the cockpit? I mean, people complain that Elite is a mile wide and an inch deep. .. This looks like you could jump the 1 mm deep puddle...

Give it six months and CRoberts will adopt it and tell us it was his idea all along

well already looks like they have atmospheric planets in. lets just hope its good, the more competition there is, the better elite will have to become.
