Have you actually ever watched the show?

Well, I finally cracked and bought Elite a couple of days ago. This game is eating my life.

I has that effect, lots of 2 hour sessions turned into "what happened to the day"

Question about the game specs:

Do you think that a rig with Intel Core i7 - 2600K CPU, 4GB Ram and a Nvidia GeForce GTX 570 would be enough to run the game decently?

Thanks for your impressions and advices

Cmdr Oscar Gogo. The system I'm in is called something like LHS-3447...

Total n00b, just bought the game yesterday. Made some cash by doing some intra system trading.

Docking and navigation could be a little more challenging (I'm a KSP veteran) but the game is good fun.

Try doing it with flight assist off and if you pull it off post it on youtube cause id love to see it

Same area as me. I'm bounty hunting. It's incredibly easy, with the Rift and X52 setup I can make short work of most targets (except bigger ships). I upgraded to an Eagle, then a Viper, but the Viper flies like a pig... so I went down to an Eagle kitted out with the best gear I can lay my hands on.  I disable the targets shields first then go in close and shove a couple of missiles into them at very close range. It's literally acquire, laser laser laser shields down, missile missile POOF!

The game is stunning on the Rift, you feel like you really are in the cockpit, you look down and get confused when your arms don't move in relation to IRL

Not as confusing as this will be. http://gizmodo.com/watch-people-freak-out-at-their-first-taste-of-virtual-1681914977

I'm still waiting for the mainstream release version with its upgraded specs before purchasing.

Feel free to send me a friend request in the game. Name is Vanlandinghale.

On a side note, I've been spending most of my time in the Cobra Mk.III. To me it feels like the equivalent of the P38/Mosquito in space. Doing mostly bounty hunting in LSH 3447. I hear there are very wonderful places to go, with a very nice change of scenery when visiting the nebulae nearby ~1,000 light years away from SOL. Once I bank up some credits, I will probably branch out several hundred/thousand light years away to go exploring.
