>Star Citizen and Elite Dangerous

This triggers me. Either make it /scg&edg/ or call it Elite Dangerous & Star Citizen

All in favour of calling it /scedg/?

ELITE CITIZEN
STAR DANGEROUS

Do either of these games plan to let you orbit around a planet or have planets orbit around the sun?

What about moving inside your ship in zero g?

I'm genuinely curious. By the way, if your game doesn't at least have these there's no point in arguing realism.

/ecsdg/ when

Elite has orbiting planets/moons though n ogravity wells for yourself to orbit in.
Star Citizen should have 0g moving around ships however the ability to turn off the gravity in your ship is not yet implemented but planned.

Star Elite: Dangerous Citizen

CR mentioned orbits which surprised the hell out of me as I and most people assumed shit would be static. You can 0g in ships right now but there's no button to turn gravity on or off yet so it's difficult to make happen
