Evening all!
I'm new to ED, I've been following the game for quite a while now but have been busy with work so was unable to commit
Fortunately, I was made redundant at the same time as the steam sale so happy days!
A word of advise to anyone like me that tried to play the first few days with a Microsoft Sidewinder Pro - get a HOTAS (hands on throttle and stick) it makes life so much easier. I managed to get the Saitek X52 for under £100. I think you can get the pro from their website bundled with ED if you have any friends interested.
I realise that my ED name is a bit naff in hindsight but hope to see you all in game.
I'll leave you with Rowley Birkin QC to describe my foray into the ED universe.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year all
