I already just started and it clearly was made for an IOS or Android and not for a person that uses the average PC. The options are simple, no real configuration settings and manual combat is not really good with a mouse, let alone a trackball mouse or a keyboard, so you're kind of stuck with the very boring auto-combat system just so you don't do anything stupid. If you ever considered buying this, just buy it on your mobile device. playing this on the PC is just...No. Just. No. Edited for additional info: before you say that maybe it was intended with playing a controller, all a controller can apparently do is turn the ship and use the afterburner. Maybe jump as well. It doesn't work when you're inside a station where it requires something to press its buttions. You NEED a mouse or a touchscreen monitor to play effectively or at all. The map in the game is very...simplistic. That's the kindest description I can give it. Last I saw, it was as if it was drawn with bright red and g...

This is a great game folks, and trust me, I play all the spacey games. This game has nothing to do with Elite: Dangerous, and actually first came out years ago before coming to Steam via Greenlight. Take a look at my video to see how the game plays, and give the game a chance. It's a lot of fun. http://youtu.be/hk5wcgoZ7BQ
Not a bad game. It's been out for years and finally arrived on steam. It's a shame Elite moved their release date up to match this game....not sure why they'd have done that. Not as pretty of some of the newer games but a solid story and enjoyable gameplay. People will have to ignore the majority of reviews though. The majority were posted by people who didn't take 5 seconds to get the facts. For example they think this game was developed after Elite when the fact is Dangerous was released with that name over a year before Elite was even in the 'Being thought of stage' But fanboys never look at facts. No this isn't a Elite Dangerous cloan, nor is it an attempt to market off that game...in fact if you only went by the true facts then it's the other way around...if you base your findings using the same scale as most of the other reviewers. Now more about the game. You can in fact fly planetside which is nice, the devs have talked about adding new planetside content later. Cont...
Bought this thinking it was Elite: Dangerous. Don't repeat my stupid mistake and stay as far away from this blatant cash-grab as humanly possible.
This game is definitely underrated. + Great open world gameplay with lots of sidequests & stuff to do + Many customization possibilities (which actually make a difference) for Ships + Really nice soundtrack - Controls take some time to get used to - Translations are bad
Haven't played it for too long, but from what i can tell, its and OK game. The negative reviews are coming just from idiots who thought this was Elite: Dangerous. I thought it would of been pretty obvious its a different game, since you will never see that game on steam for 20 bucks...and don't you think they would put their highly renouned "Elite" trademark into the game title?? Leaving a positive review to even out the playing field.
Well yes on close inspection I should have looked for Elite flag. Still it would be nice if it had been made clearer in the discription somehow. Very unfortunate that they have same games. i don';t know if it's a cash grab, or an honest mistake between two companies. What I do know is teh contropls are not very good, the training/learning segment is horrid and confiusing as hell, and they are without a doubt benefiting on teh confusion of name. I would never have purchased this otherwise and I am not alone. Heck if it was still a semi decent game I might stick with it.....but the controls are horrid. Also they are not allowing refunds since it was before refund policy.......
I am sorry for a previous review a while back, I was just angry at myself for not reading the names. This time my review will be honest. I absolutely would recomend this game to anyone, The controls are certainly a learning curve for me but It is a fun game nonetheless (not sure if one word) it is a great game. My favorite being the humor in this game, it has me laughing to myself almost everytime. Fighting honestly is not easy but it is fun and innovative, for me at least. I do not blame them for the same name, i do not believe that the creators puposely did this to get money, as Elite:Dangerous was not public knowledgeat the time of them starting the creation of this game. Once again i am sincerely sorry for my previous review. Thanks for the great game.
This is a game that requires a future build to complete and yet I find it quite entertaining and a challenge. Those who have made a negative review may not be considering this and the fact only two people are working on it. You should give this a chance, I think you will be pleasantly surprised. The music is good. The different beam and pulse weapon graphics are beautiful. The ship is third person view. You can gain perks through playing the game by doing jobs for the various companies. You can even start with a perk at the beginning of the game. You are given a subtle training lesson in the form of sudden battles which you are aided by your rescuer, thus also gaining some credits and XP to spend. After that you can do what you want with the few objectives to help you on your way, including getting your own and first wingman. You can choose your own direction in earning credits & XP even Piracy, or be a Merc. including Bounty Hunting, or trading or as an explorer of the Ancie...
I just bought this the other day and haven't played much yet. Controls take a bit of a learning curve, it reminds me a bit of Eve Online. Seems to be a solid game open-world space game. I definitely don't see reason for all the negatives. The one thing that bothers me is the pirates seem to be endless and without any real rhyme or reason to their appearing. Even in core sectors I get random pirates showing up on my butt while trying to do stuff like cargo runs or mining. And every mission I inevitably have random pirates show up. But this is a thing I've encountered in a lot of games like this, so while I find it a bit annoying it seems to be the norm. I don't see myself playing it past the storylines much, but it's providing good entertainment so far. I recommend it if you can catch it on sale. It's available for Android and IOS too (I have the PC version, so I can't comment on the quality of those).
