QuoteWe are delighted to announce Tuesday 16th December as the release date for Elite: Dangerous!
QuoteRemember â€" if you want to be a Beta customer (for PC and/or Mac!) you only have until November 22nd to join and take advantage of the lasting benefits that will give you.
Every Alpha and Beta backer will receive a pre-release ‘Preview’’ build (which we have called Gamma in development-speak in the past) on November 22nd, and can continue to play, receive updates, and help us verify it before the final game is released on December 16th.
Until November 22nd there is an upgrade path to Beta if you have already pre-ordered the game which will cost you an additional £15.
There's a new ship on "peek of the week"

Even though you said it above, the penny just dropped for me .... Gamma is 22nd November, just two weeks away!
From my perspective it means I can devote some quality time to it as there should be no more wipes past that point. I've played enough of the game to discover the bugs, and only the grouping issue remains for me, along with the bad stuttering going through jumps.
Turn AO off twist.

Is that fix for supercruise near planets? I'm talking about the animation after jumping, like the 2001AD end sequence.
Sorry yes the AO thing is for the lagginess coming towards your destination. I don't think they have the in hyperjump animation sorted in any way yet.

And no, I will no longer be doing this.
FD just hinted that there will be another wipe at release.
So there is no "preview", "premier" or "headstart" which kinda sucks.
There might be a premier event, but it's just an event, means nothing if you're not there.

QuoteA quick update on this. We're currently performing some tests to see if changes made require a wipe. We should know in the next couple of days.
