Elite: Dangerous
http://www.elitedangerous.com/
So its in beta now. I'm interested in purchasing it, cause its a spaceship game, and have seen videos on it. But I've never played an elite game before.
Anyone here heard of elite? Or going to get Elite Dangerous?
Edit:Wait. Never mind. I don't have directX:11 on my pc (I think I have DX10) So I have to get a new graphics card before I get it
Edit2: Wow you learn something new every day. Apparently I just need to install dx11

Re: Elite: Dangerous
The original Elite was one of the most well regarded space combat games *ever* made.
I am eagerly anticipating the sequel.
A near infinite amount of places to explore? Amazing graphics? Awesome gameplay?

Re: Elite: Dangerous
though it is a R800 price tag. But that would be to get beta access now so price will drop the moment it goes release... hopefully

Re: Elite: Dangerous
Yeah, the beta has such a steep price tag so that only people who are actually wiling to contribute to the game's progress can actually play it at this early stage.

Re: Elite: Dangerous
EY! lets rezz this topic!
I've been playing this for a long bit and loving the game
Now to why I post:
I just made a realization after buying my first ship upgrade in Elite:dangerous
My new ship makes me think of a fish.
Feeesh...
Also one point as I dropped out hyperspace two AI ships followed me
AI 1 "We've been looking for you"
AI 2 "That's the one I want, the one with the big hull"
>.>
I donz have a big hull!
and proceeded to do what any smart fish would do and run away to the space station that immediately blew them up

Re: Elite: Dangerous
Yea you can make a wing and fly in a group. But not too sure about internet connectivity. I've only been playing solo, damn AI filled galaxy is chaotic enough for poor fish
