Elite: Dangerous is great although a bit tedious for people w/ social lives. School's got me where I can't put as much time as i'd like into it. What's your rig and what're you flying?

CPU is mediocre, but I am running a 660. Pretty stable FPS right now. Enjoying the hell out of it. Only got manageable FPS on my old 550ti.But have my Logitech Extreme 3D pro for my flight setup, and Trackir because going without sucks. Right now flying a Type 6 Transporter. Trying to grind out money for an ASP to compliment my Cobra.

I'm thinking of setting up a dual joystick and racing pedal kind of thing for the hell of it.Being so busy I've only made it up to an Adder so far.

I basically went straight to the Viper. Then to my Cobra. I love my Cobra, great ship. Good overall utility boat. I looked at the adder as a explorer, but I just found it...meh. I can get you a quick rare trade rout if you want. If you put in the effort you can make a quick buck for something better.

I used Tolians since it's near my home system. Maybe 10 minute run from Altair to Tolains with a good FSD and there is some good money to be had. I think max stock on it is 21t. That's some good money if you go far enough.

How is Elite: Dangerous? I've heard it requires you to invest a fair bit of time and needs you to enjoy trading (which, I do) but i'll be getting it the moment it releases on X1.

I've heard it requires you to invest a fair bit of time and needs you to enjoy trading (which, I do) but i'll be getting it the moment it releases on X1.Right now? Tedious. I've been flying between two systems for the past...half day now. Interdiction attempts have broken the monotony. Let's put it this way. I've watched almost all of Firefly since I started save for the first two episodes and the last one. When I'm exploring or combat piloting, it's fucking fantastic. You have to be good at multi-tasking, especially in combat. You have to be able to balance power usage to what ever the situation requires and know when to bug out. It's a great game, a lot of fun if your into space. I enjoy the hell out of it. Why else would I be wasting the past day to earn enough for a ship I don't really need?
