    I never played the original elite. I was old enough to though. I do have a DK2, so my review will be based of using that. This game is the absolute pinacle of my gaming experience. By far the game that whilst not playing, I have thought about the most.

    The reason I scored it a 9 is that there is of course room for improvement and this is an evolving game. Frontier still have a long way to go in terms of making the game a complete package.

    Right now, the penalty for dieing to pvp combat is far too expensive (1 death costs me around 2 hours to recoup the cost) and as has been mentioned, finding other players can be a little tedious...but thats because there are 400 billion systems in the galaxy and not that many players.

    I want to see a little bit more of the story unfold also. things are moving a little slow and large scale combat is hard to get into.    … Expand

    Elite Dangerous is a good game. It feeds off everyone´s sandbox soul. Giving you the whole Milky Way to explore. The Factions battle all around and you can decide how best to help... or not.

    The game is well designed and "moreish" in it's current state and certainly worth its full price title. Space sim games of this opennes and quality range were sorely missed from the market.

    The only negative scores I see are from people who just miss a feature they just prefer. However, if a new player gets into the game based on the scores here (players or critics), it will totally work. The game is amazing.

There is a system with crime lord threatening the inhabitants, a naval base for the Federation, a system producing rare goods, which get more expensive the further out you deliver them. Bouncing around populated space, from one star system to another, from federated space to that of the empire, or the alliance, filling the fuel tank directly from stars, doing random missions here and there, increasing reputation, bounty hunting and mining are all truly a magnificent experience, by the way of the graphics and the sound specifically.

    Slowly upgrading the ship from lowly sidewinder to majestic imperial clipper was my path as a pilot, since release, took me a month, and i never regretted a single minute of it. My build was incredibly stable, "unexpected error" situations happened only twice during that month. Unbelievable for a game that just released, if you ask me, considering i logged about a hundred hours.

    The combat is a compromise between Newton's physics and "fighter jets in space", it's solid and will definitely have longevity. As much as NFS 5: Porsche 2000 got it right about it's driving experience, the Elite got it right about space fighting. The choice of weaponry and outfitting modules is interesting and requires, at times, hours of contemplation: how to strike a good balance between weight, defence, offence and whatever your opponent might have? That is the question. An interesting and engaging one.

    The only downside i will note in this section: lack of choice for fighter space ships. Basically, there is Viper and Cobra at entry level, below one million credits. The next great ship is the imperial clipper, which costs 50 mil in fighter configuration and the one after that, the Python, is beyond a hundred. That is weeks and weeks of grinding. I grinding one may never want to choose, and, hence, one never gets a Python, as bounty hunter’s/explorer’s/miner’s life pays 1/100th of what the trading does, and trading isn’t for everyone.

    After the initial month of shock, awe and pure enjoyment, many players, including myself, attempted to get down to the screws and bolts of the underlying influence system, which is supposed to drive the economy and political system, only to find out there is no elephant in that dark room. The NPCs, roaming around in great numbers are not tied to the background simulation system. That miner? He isn’t really mining. That bounty hunter? He isn’t cashing in his bounties. That trader? He isn’t really trading. The actual work is done by the background simulation system with NPC’s pretending it’s them, who are doing it. Disappointing. Why is it disappointing? Because the player or the group of them can hardly influence the galaxy around them in a direct and logical way - by interaction with NPCs and other players. Example: one can completely blockade the station, cutting off potential supply chains, but supply won’t stop. In short, the meta-game is bogus.

    Every star system in Elite has factions. Every faction gains or loses political influence inside the system, depending on whether the trade happens with them, missions are accomplished in their favour and due to other minor interferences. Every faction has potential to become a ruler in the system and even to expand beyond, to other systems, depending on player/NPC interactions. Factions are driven into “states”: civil war, expansion, etcetera. The result of states is either seizure of power within a system or actual expansion. But how are they driven into these states? No one knows that. Two large groups of players are still, to this day, trying to figure out the way the system is supposed to work, but to no success. The consensus is: it’s either broken or incredibly difficult to figure out, as Frontier is unwilling to share the intricacies (or bugs) of the whole “influence” design. Some are even convinced the whole thing is not worth the effort of figuring it out as the players’ efforts are too detached from the works of the system.

    Elite Dangerous is the old school space arcade, where the player is expected to use his or her imagination heavily to engage in galactic struggle. With beautiful and engaging gameplay at the surface, the inner works are flawed, limited and, perhaps, are a result of Frontier’s wrong choice in vision and direction. The game experience is worth well beyond 50$ it’s priced at, but, at this stage, the potential of it joining the ranks of greatest space sims of all time is yet to be seen, and may be years away in development.

    6/10, yet definitely a buy.    … Expand

Not to mention the distinct lack of a Thargoid invasion, or anything else going on in the Galaxy apart from a dying emperor and a bit of Federation politics, none of it seams to impact your game play. Not only that you can join both sides at once, which I think is a bit silly for a mmorp. You can't even easily make a tidy profit running good old fashioned narcotics, it's performance enhancers instead now. There is a smuggling mechanic which is fun but ultimately not as profitable as just hauling loads of stuff in a big fat slow ship. Gone to is being able to capture the escape pod of your victims and sell them as slaves. Not only that as of the last release I did not notice my actions having any impact on commodity prices, so the most lucrative thing to do was run back and forth to the same 2 space stations, which was a bit dull. My ship felt like Marvin the Robot, game the size of entire Galaxy and all you make me do is go back and forward between the same 2 car parks.

    The game is brutal to the uninitiated, space stations will wipe you out in a heart beat if you don't follow protocol, no fines just near instant death, which is a bit ott. Also don't clip a cop by accident in mad dog fight there's no mercy there either.

    Anyone looking for modern space sim should look elsewhere, this game has less content than Elite II: Frontier had (released 1993) and only a bit more than Elite from 1984 had.

    Absurdly boring, repetitive and buggy gameplay - buy, fly, sell x 100 so you can buy bigger ship, repeat x500 so you can buy bigger ship, repeat... Or fly around and 'explore' - point your nose towards a planet, wait 30s, scan complete, repeat. Or shoot NPCs, slightly more entertaining, but still X3 was way better, or some free space shooters (proper MMO ones) are available, too. I have not tried minning, as on paper it looks even more boring.

    Expect that one way or another the game will break for you, and if you are lucky you might get response from support in a few days. If you are not, it may take weeks or months (seriously, check the forums).

    Fanboys crying how good this game is are mentally impaired, as for them simple things like external camera are 'breaking immersion', and autopilot (present in Elite 2 and 3 as far as I recall, and in every other space game) will 'kill the game'. They keep saying that the supercruise minigame is fun and entertaining - so actually sitting there correcting throttle and direction every few seconds and pressing 'j' once arrived close to destination is their idea of everlasting fun (and you might need to sit there for a good 10 minutes on one way journey). And don't anybody dare to say 'can we get autopilot' - this is ELITE!
    Seriously, people that cry how good the game is, how great FD is, how fantastic is the fact that trading commodities prices have to be tracked with pen and paper (or external app that need to OCR the screen shots) have something not right with their heads. But, to be just, society needs workers that can do repetitive tasks all day long and be happy with it, too. Maybe it's a game for such.

    Frontier Developments made a run for money here, and most of the fanboys are unfortunately blind enough that they don't see it. The ones that saw it are fighting for refunds right now.

    4 points for graphics and sounds as they are not too bad (on par with X3), 1 total for everything else being so damn broken/non existant/scam.

    Ah, and don't get fooled by adverts that this is MMO game - it is not. There is only a basic chat (VERY basic one) and a chance you might see somebody in space. No way to fly together etc - 'coming' in future patches, and FD already offered that players can pay to access beta and test it...

    Also, if you think of other space games and imagine all those fancy shiny weapons, shields and other systems that you will be able to put on a myriad of ships - again, get X3:AP. Elite a few modules, coming in exciting variants like A to E, and sizes like 1 to 7. They differ in how much they cost, weight and power consumption. And there is about 15 ships if I recall right, from free one to multi milion credits costing ones, just 1 of the type (trader/multi purpose/fighter) in 'tier', increasing in price. And the only way to gather sensible amount of credits is to grind them through trading. No missions that could give you fancy ship in reward etc, this is 'Sandbox', and most of all, this is Elite!

    Can this game become something sensible? In theory, yes - but that would require FD company to grow up and start behaving like responsible developer of a big title, and change in fanboys base (most of them really want 1984's Elite with better graphics, any suggestions to make this a modern title are being considered a heresy). Time will tell if this title will survive the test of time, if one would like to bet - I'm not going to put my money on it...    … Expand

    Best space sim in recent memory! Covers all the basic's well trading/piracy/bounty hunting/exploring etc. It's got a fair learning curve and I would say a decent joystick is almost a necessity.

    Elite will not hold your hand. It is not a simple game and it will not treat you like an idi@t either. Hard are the beginnings, but once you discover the galaxy out there and the different sandbox options it will be very difficult to go back. For those of you who wont be looking for instant gratification and those who enjoy teh challenge of discovery, Elite is for you.

It's truly beautiful, and I can't believe they put that much work into building our galaxy, but I can't see it. I'm an adult now, I work, so I can play maybe 2-3 hours a week.

At least the original Elite gave you a Cobra which could do all of that relatively well from the start. This is just eye-gouging grinding because it's so flat. The stations, planets, and ships look phenomenal but one you land, you can't even get out of the seat. All trade is through a clunky hologram interface and it's not even hyperlinked well enough to click this and it takes you to nav page that style. No journal, so I have to write things down on paper, like where to find black markets or certain items, and the fetch quests are so bland... just text find this or take that, but without a journal I can't even cross reference where the last place I saw X commodity was (ulness I wrote it down physically). And trans-galactic flight planning? I can't type a location and say "plot route" unless it's within my fuel distance because they can't add "refuel here" waypoints, yet my simple $70 flight planning software I use for flying real planes can do it just fine. I have a hyper-space capable ship, but the computer can't add refuel waypoints? WTF? And how is it that we can jump ships FTL, but can't get market updates or at least general "this system trades these things" data without going there and seeing it after we land? Too much realism in one area, not enough in the other. I want to talk to an NPC!!!… Expand

    First minute the game takes your breath away and then it entertains you for another couple of hours to end up like a meditative tool for hard working individuals. What a waste and shame for a game in such beautiful environment. [Issue#253]

    Everyone who played the original game back in the 80's, should be right at home. It's the 21st Century version of "Elite." But newer, uninitiated players may find it strangely desolate and repetitive. A grand space simulation, aimed at the series' hardcore fans.

    You can focus on the journey, not the destination – even when some "road work" signs will bother you for the time being in the reincarnated Elite. But their numbers are declining with every new update so a thirty-year-old vision becomes more and more complete.
