Hi everyone,

This week we’ve got two awesome livestreams planned for you, on Tuesday and Thursday at 7PM GMT.

You won’t want to miss either of them, as we’ll be showing you in-game footage from 2.3 The Commanders for the very first time. On Tuesday at 7PM GMT we’ll be showing off the Commander Creator and the Vanity Camera, as well as covering some of the other features coming to 2.3.
On Thursday at 7PM GMT we’ll bring a host of Frontier Developers together to show off Multicrew in action and have some fun together.

So turn up to our official YouTube channel on Tuesday and Thursday at 7PM GMT for your first ever look at 2.3 The Commanders LIVE!

Oh, and here’s a sneak peek of just one of the things we’ll be showing on Tuesday. Have a good day Commanders.

I'm so excited about this update. Elite: Dangerous has been a real treat for a guy like me - been having issues with stress and anxiety to the point of health problems, and for some reason this game really has helped me relieve that. 

I even purchased a HOTAS with a triple screen set up to have as much immersion as possible, and there's nothing like cruising the galaxy and just enjoying the game to get my mind off of life's problems for a while.

Keep it up, Frontier Developments! I'm a huge fan!

Commander Halfmystic, signin' out.

I really do enjoying playing this game from time to time. I just hope a game (even this one) eventually is able to tie in the space sim with a ground game as well. Where you can get out of your ship, explore a planet. Build a base on it if you want, or setup harvesters for resources, etc. Both sides fully fleshed out, not just a gimmick. Would be great.

Jack of all trades, master of none....

Wish they just focused on spaceships.

I wouldn't say jack of all trades, master of none.

The flight model is superb, the VR is arguably the best in the business, their simulation of the Milky Way is superb etc. That's not to say the game can't be improved or that certain design decisions couldn't have been better in the first place.
