Echo ReconAh okay gotcha! Thank ya both. I'm just a trader for now with my trusty Python! Trying to get up in the universe


I fly a Python sometimes too! Good aren't they?

I don't do much traditional trading myself, but I'm always interested in good routes. Have you had a look at the new trading tools that we have now? They're very useful!

You already have one installed by default when you purchase a ship. The one in the store is an alternate audio pack, purely cosmetic. Purchase at your own leisure, but you don't have to if you don't want to.


Oh thank the heavens.



I've already switched to VoiceAttack and the HCS Voicepacks. I started with the Verity pack (which is the same voice used for the default game), but now I've switched to Eden.

I am using HCS, too. ASTRA is amazing. I love just love it. Having the fully customized version. The other packs are great, too! They are all very well done imo. And they elevate immersion to the next level regarding Elite - especially combined with VR

I'd envy those using VR if it wasn't for the costs and the fact that I would be unable to use it most of the time. The immersion comes from doing things together with others for me mostly.

All the immersion is useless if you are lonely all the time in elite since it is the people playing writing the best stories of the game.

Agreed. And I can say I'm with the most immersive and crazy bunch of Commanders I could ever have wished for.

Just recently we succeeded in what others deemed impossible to do. But not if you have the knowledge how to do things and the tenacity and support of your Wingmates.

It would be pretty dope if we had Six (BSG) as COVAS. I mean, her voice is just... angelic.

Agreed! While I love the opportunities for interaction, I also really enjoy playing with myself, and when I do that, most of the time I just don't need or want any company.

One of my reservations about this latest update is that many of the new content is slanted toward necessarily playing with others, and while that's fun, sometimes I just don't want to have to deal with other people - at the end of a long day of dealing with people, I just want some "me time" yanno?

Oh I perfectly know I actually spend my time like 50:50 alone and among others. I just wanted to point out that getting the most out of EVERYTHING what Elite has to offer you should play together with other people. How often or how much time you spend doing so is up to the person playing. I enjoy both sides of the coin
