so i have tried many times to enjoy Elite Dangerous , but it just a grind not as thrilling as thought out, great looking game , very well made, but the content is lacking which is a shame to say the least. I would have like to have seen big battles a fight against fractions, but sadly it not there yet, you can be a bounty hunter which is fun but gets boring fast, you can mine which is dull, i will keep hold of the game see where it goes in a few months, but for now I just dont enjoy playing it what so ever, which is a huge shame. I will say it as many things going for it, but content and thrill just is not there, once you learn the steep learning curve it all becomes second nature docking mining cargo scooping, even knowing to attack from behind and avoid being blasted out, it a very big exploring sim, to look at it jaw dropping, You can’t transfer money to other people (for example, to split mission rewards), and there’s no way to share waypoints or form groups. The game uses instances rather than EVE-style open servers, so it can be difficult to stay together. You’ll both jump into a system, only to find you’ve been separated, even though you’re in the same area. There’s a lot of room for improvement, but if the frantic updates of the beta testing phase are anything to go by, Frontier will, hopefully, be fixing and adding things thick and fast. See, even though Elite: Dangerous is ‘out’, it’s not really finished. Like an MMO, its development will be long-term, with new content, features, and upgrades added on a regular basis. As a result, the game in its current state is missing a lot of important features, especially when it comes to multiplayer. A lack of personality is also a problem. Mission text is auto-generated and feels a bit robotic and impersonal as a result, and the galaxy is so colossal that you can go hours without seeing another person. The world doesn’t feel as alive as it should, although the community is taking this into their own hands, choosing specific systems as unofficial gathering points. Keep a close eye on the Frontier forums and the Elite subreddit, because player-driven events are where the best stories will likely emerge. Frontier say they encourage players to try and break the game, like crashing or boosting economies, and they’ll respond with unique, related world events. But even now, taking its first, tentative baby steps, Elite: Dangerous is a hell of a game. It’s a welcome return of the old school PC space sim, but with a modern edge. The ship handling, especially with a flight stick, is a constant delight, and the size and scope of the Milky Way is intoxicating. I love the feeling of picking a distant star, firing up my engines, and just flying there. When Frontier knocks the online elements into shape, and adds a greater variety of things to do, this could be something very special indeed. so at the moment i give it 10/10 for graphics beautiful and stunning and you lose your self in space overall gameplay 7/10 if you like to grind and explore then it is definitely the game for you
