Happy 10th Anniversary Elite Dangerous!

[Actaeon]

So, I've dabbled in this game a little bit, but I have been interested in getting back into it, especially after a friend got our group into Star Citizen as a gift and after playing it a couple days ago, it just got me mood to come back to Elite Dangerous. Seems the game has had its highs and lows, but overall as a realistic-style space sim Frontier seems to have put in a lot of impressive work in the universe and immersion. Ship designs are impressive and detailed, a massive map covering the ENTIRE MILKYWAY, a Variety of systems to allow players to really take on any kind of role is very cool. The fact that Frontier has stuck with the game after 10 years is admirable, where most studios that promise 10 years of support rarely even reach two. Crazy thing when I was playing earlier is someone who helped me when I started for the first time years ago and added to my friends list actually logged in and is still playing the game! I'll need to contact this player and see if we can work together again.
Well done Frontier, keep at it and collaborate with your players and listen to feedback and do what serves the experience and the players first and foremost.
Happy Anniversary!

Yes indeed, rumours of Elite's demise were greatly exaggerated.

And things keep getting better.

Frontier have just posted a 10 year anniversary video, and there's also a free Anaconda wireframe skin

With friends like that, who needs enemies?

To be honest, that sucks. I got that skin ages ago.

Would have expected something new for the 10th anniversary.

Free paint job for commanders for your Anaconda. Head to the game store to collect.

They missed a shot by not making it a reward for a one-off mission picked up at Hutton (Is that place good to land at again? Not been keeping track)
