I suppose it was too much to ask that on day one of the Elite: Dangerous Premium Beta I would have a good gaming experience with it. I think I’ll leave it a couple of days now.

I did manage to get into the space station (the old fashioned rotating one) but couldn’t find reverse so struggled with the landing pad. Once I’d realised how to get my spaceship into reverse gear, the servers started playing up so I still couldn’t really land or do anything good.

Never mind though, it’ll get there.

I’d post this to FB, but some cunt would end up sneering about beta programs and such and frankly I can’t be fucked with it. I’ll enjoy my game in good time and don’t really want to listen to the nay sayers any more.
