So the premium beta starts on 30th May. I'm thinking of stumping up the £100 as it gives you access to all the major expansions when the game goes live and unlike some sandbox developers I know Dave Braben and his team can code. Anyone else fancy it when it goes live? How about you Shad? You might even get to Elite this time.  Very Happy

Murgos,

I stumped up 100 notes and bought the premium beta because Elite was the first game I played on my Amstrad CPC 464 I bought in 1986. I didn't play anything else for months. I've been playing the single player combat scenarios until premium beta goes live on Friday. Its a lot of fun. The Ai is excellent as are the graphics. I'm also having fun in ESO but I'm still playing around with builds. Going to try a ranged nightblade for PVE spike DPS next.

Yeah Elite is an good oldie... I spent a year and a half in that game, both on the C/64 and then on the Atari ST.
I might have a look at it, but as with most old game, they are never quite what they used to be.  I like the idea of bring up the same concept, but my fear is that since it is a new game, the game feeling will not be as it was back then.  At the time it was a easy, all you had to do was check out the prices for ore on planet, and it was favorable, go out get some ore, sell it and make good money.  I guess they will expand the concept, and I think that's where they will loose the old simple feel of the game.
