Well he's up to £1.1m of the necessary £1.25m so it looks like it's going to be a go ahead idea. Whether it's a good or unique idea is another matter. There's just so many online games at the moment, is there room for one more? Let's hope that David Braben manages to make this version of Elite with something a little different in it that'll take you back to your PC again and again rather like the first one did.

This is gonna be a totally Incredible game....Elite the way people dreamed it to be in 1984. But it can only happen if we reach the goal..

We are at £1,169,314 with 3 days to go....Confidence is very high but if you want the game for £20 just keep looking...people upgrading all the time leaving spaces empty

went up to Founder level (£150)

What does it mean to be a ‘Founding member of “The Elite”‘?

“The Elite” are a secretive group of intrepid pilots. Throughout human space, there are a great many people that have been helped by “The Elite” over the years, and because of this “The Elite” are treated well, wherever they go. Whether it be discounts on buying special items or repairs, and the small number of founding members even greater benefits. Other benefits include a greater likelihood of being offered rare missions or opportunities. Membership is offered to pilots who have proven their ability by reaching “Elite” rating within the Pilot’s Federation, but the founding members are not put through such an indignity. All “The Elite” are entitled to display a special silver “Elite” emblem, and the founders a golden one with the word ‘Founder’ beneath it.

just over 20k left with 54 hours to go

musojon74 · 02 January 2013, 19:01

15k to go! Went up to 60. Most I can do. Get a physical copy which is cool. We will reach the goal tonight :-)
