With the freshly released update 2.3, the long-awaited multi-crew feature has now been introduced into the space online game Elite Dangerous, allowing you to cooperatively pilot large spacecraft.
Similar to what is also planned in Star Citizen, you crew large spacecraft in Elite: Dangerous with friends, where everyone has their own role to fulfill. Teamplay becomes even more important as a result.
Since it is now possible to see each other in these ships, you can now give your hero a face. The Holo-Me tool was previously only available in a beta version and is now officially released. Through this character editor, you create your own commander with a unique appearance, just like in a role-playing game.
Many new features and improvements
Additionally, it is possible to give your ship a name and a nameplate. With new camera options, you can view the spaceship and your commander from various angles. New ships and asteroid bases are also part of the major update, along with bug fixes and stability improvements.
Two threats
Furthermore, mysterious content is making its way into the space game, which the developers do not want to talk about. The community is already speculating that this content could be related to the aliens that are currently causing trouble in the galaxy. But these aliens are not the only threat, as the Empire and the Federation face a larger conflict. The emergence of giant alien ships certainly doesn’t fit well into the picture…
All players of the space online game Elite Dangerous can directly download update 2.3 and check out the new features and additional content.
