VRFocus - Last weekend saw Frontier Developments host the Elite: Dangerous Premiere Event, a fan-driven celebration of both the Elite series and the imminent launch of the anticipated title on 16th December 2014. The show played host to the reveal of plenty of new footage about the title as well as interviews with the developers and fan community. The developer also used the event to launch an official companion app for Elite: Dangerous, which is available now via the iOS operating system (OS).
Today, the developers of Elite Dangerous at Frontier released a new update for the game with a brand-new ship front and center.
Frontier showcased the next ship that will come soon to Elite: Dangerous, the Gutamaya Corsair, also sharing details and a release date.
Seems a bit ridiculous that No Man's Sky was able to support all formats and this game couldn't. It didn't help that they were selling the game piece meal either. e.g. buy this expansion so you can walk on planets. I feel like the damage is done and they should probably shut the thing down.
The irony is No Man's Sky is what Elite used to be and can be played completely offline.
You can still get a good 200 to 300 hours out of it on console, but I agree with everything you posted. It's really a shame because I like the art so much better than NMS.
In a highly controversial decision developer Frontier has made the decision to allow players to buy ships with real money in their long running game Elite: Dangerous, sparking outrage amongst the community.
