      One of them is for rich kids though, who have overpowered gaming rigs, and money to throw away on fictional space ships. Sure Elite Dangerous has the whole galaxy, but when it just repeats itself, it kind of is just as good as one solar system really.

        I get the issues with ED but like… are we really comparing a finished and released game with star citizen?

          The new SCO Frameshift Drives removed the tedium from Supercruse travel. Finally, boost while in Supercruse.

          Also added new maximums to jump ranges vs even the previous community goal/tech broker V1s FSDs. For faster overall jumping as well.

        They re-did reskinned power play, so all powers have all modules. Just at different ranks. And no more rank decay.

        New early access exploration ship gate kept behind premium ARX but, after 3 months buyable with in game credits.

        Supposedly a completely new game feature coming…
