Elite: Dangerous

[IronHound]

He mentioned 1 BIG update every month, with another update every few weeks. They are apparently getthing things worked out so that you can raise your pledge on Paypal if need be. DB didn't run. There is NOWHERE on Earth he could hide from the ravenous Elite fans.

There was an update last Friday but it will take a while to get sorted out. Interview with DB about his thoughts on the Kickstarter. [url]http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/184599/Thats_So_Braben_Elite_Dangerous_crowdfunding_rollercoaster.php#.UPbwvmfSsdU[/url]

Updates will be coming, but there is still a lot of logistical stuff to organise. Of course, in the background development is ongoing and more people are being moved onto Elite:Dangerous each day, but I imagine the next couple of updates will be mainly to do with pledge tiers and rewards. The next update will no doubt be the web app, which should be with you guys some time next week. This will be a platform where backers can claim their digital rewards, as well as manage any future pledges and provide details such as delivery addresses or information for gifts you may want to send.

Frontier have set up their registration site for E:D Hi,this is just a quick update to let you know that the web app for managing your rewards has gone live. The email notifications are going out as I type this. The process will take a while, so don't worry if you haven't received your email yet. Got commander Pinback registered. :biggrin:

[Cody]

Still waiting for my email here - but then I'm only a last-minute, low-level backer!

[Cody]

Commander Cody is now awaiting approval... heh.

[Pinback]

I was surprised to get the email as I was not expecting anything from them until next week.

[Straker]

Yep, registered my commander/npc name as well.

[Cody]

I'm still waiting for approval - but that doesn't really surprise me. I'm prepared for my commander name to be rejected (quite possible) - but I do hope it is approved, as I've been Commander Cody since BBC Elite. But we shall see - ho-hum!

[Pinback]

Saw a thread about commander names on the Frontier forum and a lot of whinging in it, thought I better check my backer site again. Looks like I was wrong I had thought the names had gone through but it now looks like they are "pending approval".

[Cody]

That thread is crazy - whinging doesn't really do it justice.

[Geraldine]

That thread is crazy - whinging doesn't really do it justice.That thread is locked now :girlsigh:

[Cody]

Yeah... but I think someone is now using another thread.Who'd be a Moderator, eh? I resigned my Oolite Mod powers 'cos... well, you can guess.

[Geraldine]

Yeah... but I think someone is now using another thread.Who'd be a Moderator, eh? I resigned my Oolite Mod powers 'cos... well, you can guess.Merged it! :girlcrazy: You gave up your Oolite Mod powers Cody? Why? The Oolite board is a nice friendly place.

[Cody]

 Why? The Oolite board is a nice friendly place. Mostly, yes. But I was that dangerous mix - a Global Mod and a Full Admin, and power like that is...

[Pinback]

Mostly, yes. But I was that dangerous mix - a Global Mod and a Full Admin, and power like that is... :O

[Cody]

I have raided the dark-side in Oolite, and have gazed upon the ancient and enigmatic book of code. There I was approached by boffins, who did tempt me to remain among them. But I resisted and managed to escape, clutching mysterious code... and cookies!

Just had a look at my Elite backer page and it say they will start approving names from Monday 4 of feb. Also the backer forums will be going live on the same day.

Just had a look at my Elite backer page and it say they will start approving names from Monday 4 of feb. Also the backer forums will be going live on the same day. <nods> The private backers' forums, I believe... not for us mere mortals.Oh that I could afford a writer's pack... just for the sheer hell of it!

[Pinback]

Their is two of them, the Private backer forum which I have access to was the £75+ tier and the Design decision forum on the £300+ tier. Would have loved to have gone for the Design decision forum but there was just no way I was going to spend that amount of money on a game.
