Hello Crixsus. Welcome to the group and these forums.

I think you will like the T-Flight. I like mine. You may want to use another controller with it for more bindings though, unless you're one of those people that can use a keyboard whilst keeping his/her eyes on the screen. I'm using a cheap after market PS3 controller on a stand as it has buttons and two analogue sticks, and I've ordered a numeric keypad that I'm going to glue different size/height/shape knobs onto so they can be identified by 'feel'.

Hope to see you out there!

different size/height/shape knobs can be identified by 'feel'.

Voice attack is so much easier.

Hello and Welcome Crixsus!

Greetings!

Commander Megalon here. I'm glad to be part of this community. I'm Hungarian, but I live in Denmark now. In real life I am a space scientist and I played with the original Elite on my Commodore 64 back in the day. Ever since I love games about space. I played a LOT with X3 and now I plan to play E: D for years.

Feel free to add me in game!

Welcome Megalon. Looks like you have a similar background to many of us here.

Enjoy the journey!

Hey all,

Dirtmuncher here (and ingame). 33 year old from the Netherlands. I uses to be a soilscientist , hence the name. Now I am do water consultancy. 2 kids and a young wife. Due to time constraints usually more active on forums then in the game.

First played elite II on my Amiga 500 and never lost the itch.nothing in my opinion has come close to it, but that may be nostalgia speaking. I hope to fly with you soon.

Ow if anyone wants to try a dk2 in nl. Just give me a pm.
