There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

I assume, you´re not in your 20s anymore since you played the original game.
I am in ED now since a bit over a year. If you liked the game, you´ll love this one!
What has changed since 1985:
30 ships to fly
additional repaints available
planetary landings on planets without atmosphere
ship launched fighters for several (bigger) ships.
Trading, mining, fighting, piracy, Exploration
ship tuning
grinding and griefing :-(
Aliens?!?
3 modes: open, private game or solo (all require Internet Connection since things like stockmarket is updated)
new friends arround the world
average age of players might be 35-45
it´s rather a space sim than an action game (just like 1985) with good physics
downside: some players love to kill newbies just for fun...but then you can always switch to solo mode - you´ll miss the chance to interact with other players then
Fly save Cmdr,
