That is how you play a game; great pilot too. Inspiring stuff.
FA off for a mouser is almost uncontrollable unless you set relative mouse control to on, but then it doesn't act like a virtual joystick in FA on.
This really needs to be a toggle on the keyboard.
Since Allegiance I can no longer use a joystick.
Ergo, Allegiance has ruined the fun I could have with my stick

1st peek at an imperial cockpit.
I suspect this bad girl is a Boa, or maybe a Python. A Falcon de Lacy constrictor anyway

fancy but I hope they're not burning their cash in eye-candy stuff and forgetting what matters: working on accessibility and content. I'm a bit worried when I see that and the current status of the game

I don't. They must have a ton of concept art they could just as well use for marketing and whetting out appetites.
Btw, the pre order price _is_ cheaper than it will be on release, and the "mercenary edition" brings other goodies as well, like a free Eagle fighter. I recommend getting your copy ASAP everybody.

On the 20th, it will be 30 years since Elite originally launched in 1984. Some fans have made this awesome video. Raw in-game graphics, filmed by looking straight up through the canopy of a Sidewinder.
30 years on the Frontier.

Just picked up my copy of the beta! First words out of my mouth: Pretty pretty

What are you using to fly?
The single player combat missions are good practice. Use the 1st one as a safe place where to work on your key bindings.
There are tutorials to be found on the forum, and on the 30th such will be included in the game itself.

I'm running mouse/keyboard. Starting to get the hang of things. I got up to the stealth mission before discovering the wonders of targeting the enemy and assisted aim. It's way easier to manage my movement with that now.
I'm off to learn about the in-game economy!
