Elite Dangerous 2024

It will be available for in-game money… but only in a while.

I cannot understand Frontier’s behavior.
That’s literally stupid.

But then again, after David Braben left everything felt ‘lesser’.

Like every game that’s long in the tooth E:D struggles with cashflow to allow continue paying their dev team.

Frontier downsized the team significally but still have to find new streams of revenue.

I actually like the choice to make the new toys available for money exclusively for a few months before adding it for everyone to the in game ship yards.

What you say makes perfect sense. Besides the micro-transactions the only other cash flow Frontier gets is with the major pay add-ons and those are far and few between.

I would love to know how many NEW players have bought the base game over the past couple of years but my instinct tells me it’s a trickle.

This is only for Steam but it shows that the current number of people playing the game is well below the all time peak.

I need to give this another shot when I get home tomorrow. I still have no clue what I’ll be doing in trying to do AX stuff, like at all, but I’m sure it can’t be too hard.

Just get some AX Enhanced Multicannons at a rescure mega ship a go hunt some Scouts.

Krait II or Chieftain are good AX ships.
