Title: new "Elite" game on kickstarter :)
Post by: Jimbo on December 29, 2012, 03:46:57 pm
Don't think this has been mentioned here before, but anyone remember the space trading game Elite?

Only a few days left on the kickstarter campaign for a new updated version. :)

If you loved the original you owe it to yourself to pledge :)

I'd love to pledge but because it's in pounds, it doesn't go to Amazon for payment and thus I have to enter a credit card, which is too much damn work and then makes me re-think my spending of the moneys which in turn makes me close down the page.  If they want my money, they need to make it one click buy so then I can second guess myself.

I do not know why it is Kick Starter.

The company is not hurting for money.  Unless they think that the game concept is too much a risk.

I hope this time we are getting a proper planet re entry sequence than just warping to a space station.

Paypal any use? (http://elite.frontier.co.uk/kickstarter.html#.UOdWH-R1F8E)
