Elite:Dangerous

Quote from NucNuc

David Braden made his pledge in BRITISH POUND STERILNG !
Just checked the exchange : 1 pound stering = 1.605 US $ , means : plegde IS 2 000 000 in US $
(even slightly more, dpemdeing on day-exchange rates)

Ok, that makes it one of the biggest pledges, but at least he's not cheating out starting with lower ammounts to then say "mo' money mo' ships" or so Bases on real fan base, not tricks.

He's already half the way there, so people may start pledging better when it's nearer to the goal. Over a month left should do it.

Hi
This Elite Dangerous thing is starting to look Really Good:

YEAH, it looks good in itself !

But ...unfortunatly ... its campaign so far ....
well, see yourself, perhaps .... if somebody has a bit to give
time to make up your mind if you wanna see this realized.

It looks possible, if it goes at the same rate as yesterday, or the other days, it's possible

Yeah, hope never dies (or : at least only at last)

As it looks like David Braben and the folks at Frontier Games hve heared to the audience.
And put up a new Dev Vid with some more, even though still early, in-game footage.

HAVE A LOOK AT DEV DIARY 3

THX for this link, Husker

COOL flyin' ,isn't it ?

For others not familiar with this kind of flying :
That's what a JOYSTICK is for
(even if they use game-pads in the vid)

Barrel roll barrel roll DO A BARREL ROLL !! There was a music like that.

Anyway... on that site, saw this:

Gary Whitta interviews Chris Roberts and David Braben about Kickstarter, Star Citizen, and Elite: Dangerous

Elite Dangerous has now reached its £1.25mil mark!!! heres to hoping that the game will FINALLY go into full production

As soon as the beta is running I will give you some MORE infos on it

Nice. Any info when?

little bit of info........the david braben/elite story has appeared on local TV here in the UK.

just thought u guys might want to know.

cheers

Ray OK

any links for that?

Not enough links on here lol, so here are some more with videos and the like. I've backed this as it's a crime if it doesn't get finished, thankfully DB has the funding and is getting on with it. All hail the godfather of 3D space sims, don't ever forget this is the man who started it all with his university buddy Ian Bell, who now breeds burmese cats lol

Thanks Gibbon for the links to David Brabens new Elite,its been many years since 1984 when this game exploded onto the BBC-B to pave the way for Every other space sim,Chris Roberts is only building on what Messrs Braben and Bell created and as such his new game will be way inferior to anything that David Braben does! Just wait and see!
Right on Commander

One of the features i was reading about which i quite liked, was the fact your ship displays damage as it gets older, dents and scratches, and the paint fades and other cosmetic nonsense like that. I like the idea of your new shiny ship looking all beaten up if you don't service it lol

so i guess mine would like scrap metal

Without a doubt!
