You're welcome!
I'd like to add that I wrote the above with partial intent to point out the weaknesses to help you decide against spending on something you might not like. Elite may be an acquired taste. Frontier forum polls, for what such polls are worth, put the average player age between 35 and 45, with a significant number of people over 50. So that you may know what you might get yourself into ;)

Elite: Dangerous is on sale now. You can get the combo with horizons and all the current updates for ~ $32
Plus the next upcoming season of upgrades will be free for horizon owners for the entirety of 2018.
So a great deal for imo, the BDSSE today.

Nice video on the "stellar forge" of ED and the galaxy simulation details: (starts 6min)

Beyond , being a free season of updates for Horizons owners has been great so far. Revamped engineers, crime & punishment, thargoid scouts which hearken back to the old Elite and FFE, and new guardian items and mystery obelisks including two new ships: T-10 & the Chieftan.

And, the content shown in ED's trailers actually do come out in the game within weeks later. :laugh:
dsmart:
Thanks for sharing those. I haven't been in ED for awhile now.
And yeah, unlike those other guys, their trailers tend to have features which are either already in the game, or in the upcoming update.
Also, compare this recent Braben interview, with Croberts verbal diarrhea.

krylite:
You're welcome Derek. I'd already seen that article, but thanks. Yes, agreed Braben seems far more of a professional that has got his act and company together than CRobbers and I believe Frontier is still committed to ED's future. Here is the latest trailer (in-game engine looking) which showcases the Krait which arrives tomorrow!

Also great 'spacelegs' tease by FDev (rare hint of what they're working on behind the scenes, imo) and I'd think another nail in the coffin of SC. CIG-management must be shaking in their backer funded shoes knowing that their ponzi days are limited on seeing it.
