Picked up an extra copy as a birthday present for a buddy who is deep into Elite Dangerous.
Will be interesting to hear what he thinks. :)

The amount of bugs and problems with Unity never ceases to amaze. :huh:
Good to hear they managed to salvage the project!

The Steam price is very fair, also on 10% sale at the moment for a low cost of just above 5€.

Never before have I been so reluctant to press like on a GoL article... :|
This is a sobering reminder that nothing is ever completely safe or bug free. I assume there are plenty of Linux gamers who don't hang regularly on more hardcore sites where these things are normally featured.

Kudos to GoL for reporting on this. Awareness is half the battle.

I guess that guy is getting blasted into oblivion for this careless revelation of such a serious bug. Something akin to karma, perhaps.

Oh you can remove the 250 fps cap? Nice! Also, why :P

How many fps do you need in RL? :wink:

I set the native version fps limit at 120 and it's rock solid. 8700k/RadeonVII 3440x1440 everything maxed out. Without the fps limiter, it bobbed around the 200 mark.

Honestly not sure if I could tell the difference...

Joystick and gamepad should work fine.
Mouse is disabled at the moment as Zapa had some problems getting it working properly in-game, even though it works in the editor. Just Unity things... :whistle:

Owners of Vega cards may have issues with volumetric fog not rendering correctly, if you can't see any asteroids or ships, disable Foggle for now. (or use Proton, that runs perfectly too) Expect a fog fix coming soon.
