Elite Dangerous - Launch Trailer

Can't wait to play this on the rift with my hotas and buttkicker tonight!
 
I've been playing the s*** out of this game. It is awesome.

I have been watching some streams on twitch and it does look good. Looks like a huge time sync though, so I am not getting it till like Q2 next year.

I watched someone try to figure out how to stealthily get stolen goods into a gateway so he did not get fined. Was kind of cool. My biggest issue from watching the streams is that the travelling from destination to destination seems a bit boring.

My only issue with the in-system travel (called Super Cruise) is that the last 30 seconds or so are unnecessarily long. You have to slow down at a certain rate and get within a certain distance and speed. If those thresholds could be increased the any complaints I have about supercruise would be gone. Because while in supercruise you get the best view of the solar system, it's the only option really for exploration, plus you still have the interdiction mechanics and unidentified signal sources pop up.
 
This game looks like it's going to be epic.
 
I should have put a little more money and bought a cheap HOTAS instead of Logitech joystick I have right now... but it's too late I guess.
At this point, I'm trying to find out how to use Kinect as TrackIR.
