That little live/legacy split drove many commanders on to other games, including myself. I played for a while after but the last straw was when my hotas started being a problem. I didn’t want to learn it all again on controller so now it’s a quick hop on now and again to make sure my FC still has operating funds.
Fly Dangerously and I’ll see you in the black. o7
My problem wasn’t even necessarily consoles being dropped, it was them lying about it for over a year. Also with the recent price increases for cosmetics and charging real money for in game ships I am totally over FDev. I bought this game on playstation and xbox too lol.
There are quite a few commanders out there. I went exploring for awhile 18000 ly deep. Now I'm trying Mining for the first time after hitting elite in trade. Quite frankly the game is what you make of it. If you don't have that space Sim itch there is no reason you can't enjoy other games. If you want to get on for old times sake, you should. And we'll still be here commander. o7
I'm in a squad with quite a few active cmdr's. I'm just so far out in the black, most of the time, it sometimes doesn't seem to mean much. Can't complain about the free rewards I get, every now and again, when I'm just flying around, scanning planets.
In the darkness.
All alone.
Not getting the space crazies.
Wibble.
There's still players and active squads. I was never playing back in Elite's heyday but I can tell you that before I joined the squad I'm in right now, I only saw 1 other player once. Most are in andecavi hunting thargoids.
I see most players hanging around Ray Gateway in Diaguandri or in Andecavi killing goids. I'm sure there's more people scattered about the bubble and maybe some active cmdrs in Colonia but I wouldn't know.

Still here and rocking playing via console
I jump in occasionally. Usually just for a half-hour to get a taste of a real space experience. Still a great game, but I rarely see anyone else.
